We stayed at the Lux* for our honeymoon and it did not disappoint!! Everything from the food to the staff and activities were perfect. The island is a literal paradise and our pool villa was spacious with stunning sunrise views. We did not want to leave and will defo be returning! In the 4 nights we stayed, we managed to try all the different restaurants - amazing lunches at Veli Pool Bar, dining under the stars at Senses and the teppanyaki experience with Allan at Umami were all highlights. All inclusive was absolutely worth it with signature cocktails, champagne by the glass, nearly all food options and decent bottles of wine all included. Sunset at Beach Rouge was also great vibes before dinner. If you’re after a very serene experience, then this maybe hang the one for you, but if you want a mix of energy, entertainment and relaxation it’s perfect. All the staff made us extremely welcome from the moment we stepped foot off the plane, warm greetings at every meal, fast service and friendly housekeeping who did the room twice a day. The whale shark excursion was also a once in a lifetime experience. The guides were professional and caring, and we travelled a long way to a recent sighting and got to snorkel with 2 whale sharks - the 2nd one we were able to swim alongside for a good few minutes which was a magical experience. If you’re thinking about booking Lux - do it!

We had a wonderful stay with family at Lux for 4 days! The rooms were comfortable, the resort was beautiful and the food was delicious! But most importantly, the staff and the hospitality was unparalleled. Want to give a huge shout out to Pradeep, Mano and Vijay who went above and beyond to understand our needs, recommend places and food options, and ensuring we were well taken care of throughout our stay. Additionally, Rashwaan ensured our rooms were serviced routinely and well, leaving a crafty surprise for my kids that brought a smile to their faces every time we entered the room. We look forward to coming back again.

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. :)

We had the trip of a lifetime at Lux South Ari Atol. Everything about our stay was a dream come true. Gatsby, our host, was so kind and welcoming and went above and beyond to make sure our stay was special. The housekeeping team were great, keeping our room spotless and leaving us cute notes and towels in the shape of animals. We loved the Senses restaurant for lunch and dinner, and we liked East Market best for breakfast - a special mention to Dasun, Rimah, Anusha and Chef Harsn for looking after us beautifully. We loved our speciality coffee lesson from Nur in the cafe, and we loved our buggy rides with all of the drivers, but Mofizul was so happy, kind and fun! We would love to come back soon!

Our first trip to the Maldives. A spectacular setting and the over water villa was excellent (although a little worn in places. We splashed out and took advantage of an offer that gave us all inclusive but were dis appointed with the service overall. The concierge assigned to us ignored two requests we made (via what’s app) and we decided to try the speciality restaurants but were disappointed with the level of charges given the fact we were all inclusive. I also though the $70 charge for 2 bicycles for a week was poor and should have been included. Unfortunately we wouldn’t return
