Accomodation
Simplicity meets elegance at LUX* South Ari Atoll. Thatched roof beach bungalows and villas perched over the warm Maldivian waters create a stylish seaside haven. Chaises-longues on the sandy shores invite guests to unwind beneath the palms, while staircases descend straight into the Indian Ocean. Whitewashed walls, light and airy spaces with bursts of color, and tropical foliage make for the ultimate laidback lifestyle. We have ten different categories, so whether you're flying solo or with a tribe of little travellers in tow, or whether you're more the water villa type than the beach one, you will find your fit.
Rooms
Take in all the sights, sounds and colours of authentic island living in the leisurely comfort of your Beach Pavilion. Sunlight filters through lofty thatched roofs, while the luxurious bathroom offers a private garden with a refreshing outdoor shower. The Beach Pavilions are also ideal for families with a baby or child.

Dining
Yes, you’re in the Maldives. But that doesn’t mean we can’t take you to Italy, Japan, Southeast Asia or the shores of the Mediterranean for a night. Now hear this: we have eight restaurants and five bars. Eight is more than you can fit into a week. Your taste buds will never be bored. And neither will you.
MIXE is our main restaurant serving global cuisines. It caters to all palates thanks to its variety. Did we mention the floor is all sand?
It’s all in the name, Senses. The food is flavourful, and the cocktails colourful. And yes, its location at the edge of the infinity pool by the sea is a treat for the senses.
Allegria takes you from the Maldives to the Mediterranean. As for the open kitchen, it lets you take a peek at the chefs busying behind the stoves.
An overwater bar. South-east Asian cuisine bursting with flavour. Fiery hot, fried, frizzled, steamed. East Market, much like the night markets of Asia, has it all.
Right by the beach, with a front-row view of the sunrise, this sociable enclave is situated near our reception, right by the watersports centre.
An ode to Japan, and its incredible variety of cooking methods, flavours and textures.
Excellent coffee is a must, not a luxury; that’s why you’ll find a Café LUX* at the heart of LUX* South Ari Atoll.
Enjoy a refreshing drink as you soak up those incredible watery views.
You’ve heard the album, now enjoy the ambience as you eat, drink and make merry.
Recreation
At LUX* Resorts and Hotels, we have created a sanctuary for your health and wellbeing. Our holistic approach means your vacation can be as full with yoga, fitness classes, and meditation as it is with nourishing Keen on Green dishes, vitamin D from the sun rays on your skin, and time outdoors. Because we know how limiting a one-size-fits-all mindset is, we offer individual consultations and bespoke programmes. Our therapists are trained to tune in to what your body is craving: total relaxation? Detoxification? Healing? Strengthening? We’ve got you covered.
A heavenly tropical island in the middle of the Indian Ocean is the perfect spot for little travellers to live out their Crusoe fantasy—only better. It all starts with a welcome ice cream the moment they step off the seaplane or boat and onto shore where adventure awaits. As a resort, we love welcoming families, and we know a thing or two about magical family holidays. The secret? Some alone time for the parents, play time for the little ones, and plenty of bonding time all together.
Make the most of your LUX* island getaway with complimentary reef snorkelling, kayaking and pedal boats. There's also a wide range of water sports available at the boathouse, such as windsurfing, rubber ring and banana rides, water-skiing, wakeboarding and jet-skiing for an additional fee. Or explore further afield with a private catamaran trip and picnic parties to neighboring islets.
Take a break from the ocean with a game of beach table tennis, volleyball and tennis on floodlit courts. Visit LUX* Me fitness to enjoy a tailor-made training session complete with beach yoga, cycle around the lush island setting or challenge someone to a game of billiards and table soccer at our indoor games centre.
In the evening, head out to Musik, our lively island nightclub, where an eclectic mix of rock, salsa and techno mixed by our in-house DJ will have you dancing until the sun comes up
LUX* Me is a unique concept which combines fitness, spa, nutrition, yoga, retreats and experiences into one venue. Our concept is to allow guests to create their own integrated spa, fitness and lifestyle experience with the help of our LUX* Me experts. Our unique 'Me Time' Menu is designed to tailor-make an experience just for you. From luxurious facials, massages and scrubs to invigorating yoga classes and a broad array of dynamic and fun exercise programmes, LUX* Me is all about you. Specialised programs such as our retreats or flexible Vitalité experience allow you to participate in a way to maximize wellbeing and vitality. Contact us to book your own LUX* Me expert to help program a truly personalized experience.
For those who'd like to enjoy a more casual swim, LUX* Maldives has two spacious swimming pools located on the sunset side of the island.
For those wanting to explore the depths of the ocean, LUX* offers access to some of the nation's most beautiful dive sites, where scuba enthusiasts can see an abundance of parrotfish, butterfly fish, sting rays, manta rays, tuna and barracuda, not to mention impressive yet gentle whale sharks. You might even encounter an elusive hawksbill, dolphin or green turtle.
Dive sites include Maamagili, suitable for beginners and those who have never dived before, Aa Thila for the more experienced, and Thinfushi Beru Tila for advanced divers. Our dive centre offers 37 incredible dive sites, two wreck sites and night diving, all within a short boat ride offshore.
Two diving sessions are hosted daily, with at least one trained monitor for every four divers. The dive centre also has a Euro Divers five-star PADI certification for complete peace of mind. Courses include Discover Scuba Diving, Scuba Diver (leading to PADI Scuba Diver certification), and an Open Water Diver Course. The latter lasts five to six days and leads to an internationally-recognised PADI scuba diving certificate and a card that entitles you to rent equipment and dive anywhere in the world to a depth of 18m during the day. NITROX diving courses are also available.
