The Maldives’ Ultimate Multi-Sensory Escape

In 2025, travelers aren’t just looking for a getaway — they’re chasing full-on sensory immersion.

According to Tripadvisor’s Trendcast report, multi-sensory travel is on the rise, with sound healing leading the charge. And it’s not just a fleeting fad — the global sound therapy market is set to hit $3.9 billion by 2032, per Market Research Future.

Enter Joali Being, a private island Maldives retreat that goes beyond white-sand beaches and infinity pools to deliver a next-level auditory escape. Partnering with a NASA scientist, the resort introduced a private sound therapy chamber, a sound-activated walking path through native forest (complete with a listening spiral and wine-chime bell) and a pyramid-shaped studio for group sound-bath meditations — where striking a giant gong is part of the itinerary.

Wellness devotees can dive deep into plant-based dining and Joali Being’s four wellness pillars — energy, microbiome, mind and skin — while cruising through the jungle-like grounds on personalized beach bikes, each tagged with a first-name license plate for an extra personal touch.

With 68 luxe stays split between overwater bungalows and beachfront villas, you won’t find a TV in your room — but you will find a xylophone for DIY sound healing. And for those looking to truly tune in, a one-on-one session in the sound therapy chamber pairs 14 specialized instruments with deep relaxation — the perfect way to unplug, reset and recalibrate.
