Soneva Jani

As the first barefoot luxury resort, Soneva has always been ahead of the curve. Today, our family of resorts continues to innovate and is a world leader for guest experiences and sustainability.

Barefoot Luxury

We ask our guests if they would like to remove their shoes when they arrive. Our ‘No News, No Shoes’ philosophy is all about disconnecting from the stresses of daily life and reconnecting with the earth with the sand between your toes.

Sustainability

Sustainability has always been at the heart of Soneva’s ethos, from sourcing sustainable materials and pioneering ‘waste-to-wealth’ practices, to working in partnership with our local communities. We are proudly 100% carbon neutral – find out more about our sustainability initiatives here.

Organic Gardens

Each of our resorts have their own organic gardens. By growing our own fruit, vegetables and herbs, we not only have fresh, delicious ingredients for our restaurants but also reduce our reliance on importing produce over long distances.

Discover all of our dining destinations and experiences available at Soneva Jani and on the untouched islands surrounding us. Our Hosts are happy to customise each experience for a special occasion, celebration, or simply just because.

Overseas by Mathias Dahlgren

(Pescatarian, Vegetarian and Plant-Based)

From the mind of acclaimed Swedish chef, Mathias Dahlgren, the Overseas’ menu is an ode to organic produce and the sea. Dine on pescatarian, vegetarian and plant-based single plates, sharing plates and signature dishes for lunch and dinner.

Guess Who’s Cooking

(International)

Dine on a secret menu, prepared by one of our chefs, in a secret, ever-changing location. There is no menu, with each dish tailored to your preferences. Our chef will reveal themselves only after the meal, to talk about the concept, ingredients and what inspired them. 

The Crab Shack

(Seafood, International)

With an upstairs deck for watching the sunset, try the Sri Lankan Mud Crab curry, or the Alaskan crabs that rotate through the week. A selection of rosés are the highlight of the drinks menu. Recently voted as the ‘World’s Most Romantic Restaurant’ on CNN.com.

So Wild By Diana Von Cranach

(South-East Asian)

Dine on a health-conscious, plant-based menu designed by the innovative raw food chef Diana Von Cranach, showcasing unique and simple dishes that revive historical, nearly-forgotten traditional recipes from the Indonesian Spice Islands and South East Asia. Ninety per cent of the ingredients come freshly picked from Soneva Jani’s organic garden and most dishes will be raw. Expect some unusual ingredients, as well as healing herbs and botanics.
