Joy Island Maldives by The Cocoon Collection

About this accommodation

Joy Island Maldives by The Cocoon Collection occupies Kassanfushi, a private island in North Malé Atoll reached by a short speedboat transfer of roughly 20 minutes from Velana International Airport — one of the most accessible resort locations in the Maldives. Part of the boutique Cocoon Collection brand, Joy Island operates as a fully all-inclusive property, with the rate covering meals, drinks, non-motorised water sports, and a broad activities programme. The resort has earned a 4.9-star rating from nearly 1,750 reviews — an exceptionally high score that reflects consistent guest satisfaction across dining, service, and environment. The Cocoon Collection's design philosophy leans Italian-contemporary, with clean lines and vibrant colour accents throughout overwater and beach villas. North Malé Atoll's calm, shallow lagoons make Joy Island well-suited for snorkelling and water sports, while the proximity to Malé means no domestic flight connections — a practical advantage for shorter stays or families with young children. The all-inclusive structure removes the anxiety of on-resort costs, making Joy Island a particularly strong choice for first-time Maldives visitors who want a seamless, high-quality introduction to the archipelago.
