⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “Worth Selling a Kidney For… Almost!” My wife has already volunteered to sell one of my kidneys so we can come back for her next big birthday — that probably tells you everything you need to know about how much we loved LUX South Ari Atoll*! From start to finish, the experience was incredible. A special shoutout to Rafith, who came to the rescue when we faced what looked like an 8-hour wait at Malé airport on our return. Even though the situation wasn’t really the resort’s fault, he managed to arrange a later checkout and gave us a discount to use the lovely LUX Lounge* (which you also enjoy on arrival). That level of care really stood out. As for the resort itself — well, it’s easy to see why people rave about this place. The service is genuinely fantastic, and it’s one of the few destinations where your photos actually look like the postcards. We swam with turtles, manta rays, whale sharks, and reef sharks — simply unforgettable. The food was fabulous, the beaches pristine, and the water that unreal shade of turquoise you always dream about. In short: great trip, great service, and a truly stunning location. We’ll be back (once I’ve recovered from the kidney negotiations)

First time at Lux and we had an amazing experience, service was truly exceptional from the guest experiences team, cleaning, and everyone at the restaurants. Everyone was friendly and seemed very happy to work here which contributed so much to the welcoming atmosphere of the island. Shoutout to Mulham, Anfal, Pong. Shafeeu and many many others that went above and beyond. We felt very taken care of from the moment we touched down in Male from luggages, transfers, daily itinerary, so on. Food was exceptional and service was amazing. All the restaurants had ahthentic food, especially the chinese, south asian, and thai cuisines. Drinks were amazing as well. We were here for a week and had a comfortable variety. Shoutout to senses and the south asian live station at breakfast. Whole Island is spotless, clean, and always smells amazing. Waters are clear and we saw many sharks and sting rays by the shore. There are too many positive points throughout the whole experience to mention it all, but in general, could not recommend it enough!! Team was very attentive and welcoming we felt carefree throughout our stay. :)

This was our first stay at Lux South Ari Atoll and it was SUPERB. Absolutely the BEST resort in the Maldives. The service was absolutely amazing. Every staff member was friendly and helpful. The experience and memories are priceless. This is definitely more then 5stars⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ and we can't wait to return.

It was our second time at Lux Hotel — the first for our honeymoon, and now with our baby. If the first stay was wonderful, this one was truly exceptional! I injured a ligament, and Ali, the hotel manager, together with his amazing team, organized everything for my hospital visit and took care of me as if I were family. The food is outstanding — fresh, varied, and delicious, with special thanks to all the chefs and staff who even prepared daily purees for our baby. Everyone was incredibly kind and attentive. Thanks to Ali, you never miss a thing — even in the middle of the ocean, you feel at home. Lux is more than a 5-star hotel; it’s pure paradise! 🌴✨
Ali BENJELLOUN
We stayed at LUX South Ari Atoll from October 17th to 22nd. The resort is absolutely stunning, beautiful setting, great facilities, and everything was well organized. However, I was a bit disappointed with our assigned host, Mira. Her welcome was rather cold and she rarely replied on WhatsApp. I often had to go to the reception myself to get information about ongoing events or restaurant openings. Apart from that, everything was perfect, and we had a wonderful stay. I’m giving 4 stars instead of 5 only because of the lack of assistance from our host
