Overview | Accommodation
Our Opinion
Situated in the Southerly Laamu Atoll, requiring a short internal flight from Male, Six Senses seems to have hit the perfect sweet spot between a natural, authentic feel and decadent luxury.

Pretty much every facet of the resort exudes quality, from the fabulously indulgent villas to the even more indulgent restaurants - the main buffet distributed over three mouth-watering stations and complemented by a la carte choices and sumptuous, freshly-prepared health drinks contribute to one of the finest breakfasts in the Maldives, if not anywhere. Warning: you may go to Six Senses for a dose of health and well-being, but you'll need the discipline of a saint not to blow the diet!

The influence of the previous owners, the more expensive Soneva Group, is unmistakeable, and while Laamu may not have the same cachet or kudos as Soneva Fushi, this is a fabulous resort to spend time unwinding, if you can afford it.

We particularly like the entry-level Lagoon Water Villas, with extensive use of natural materials, carefully concealed modern luxuries, numerous lounging areas and fabulous outdoor bathroom - it would be easy to imagine spending a week or two here and rarely emerging from the villa!

The house reef doesn't boast the abundance of marine life that the best reefs can, but is perfectly adequate and accessible to get you started, while short dhoni trips will take you to some fabulous nearby snorkelling spots.

Summary
Dolphins swim and spin all along the seashell dappled shores of Six Senses Laamu, the only resort in Laamu Atoll, just five degrees north of the Equator. Snorkel in Laamu’s coral rich house reef among Oriental Sweetlips, parrotfish and even green turtles. Surf Yin Yang, one of the Maldives’ most famous waves, that breaks just offshore.

At six waterside and overwater lounges and restaurants, our resident mixologist whips up bespoke concoctions while chefs from East and West prepare wholesome recipes made with herbs, vegetables and fruits grown in the island’s organic garden. Take relaxing refuge in your unvarnished chic beachfront or overwater villa built of sustainable materials and spread generously around our palm fringed paradise found 45 minutes south by scheduled flight from Male International Airport.

Guest Services
Browse our seaside library with international newspapers, engrossing beach reads, movies and tunes plus complimentary computers with high speed internet. Shop for chic, ethically sourced souvenirs in the adjacent Six Senses Gallery including our favourite organic cotton bedding. Laamu’s sublime setting distracts from the burn in the waterfront gym with Techno-gym cardio machines and sea facing Kinesis personal fitness equipment. On the upstairs deck, the sound of waves equally inspires restorative meditation and invigorating yoga, available by scheduled classes or private appointment with in house experts. Younger guests have their own place to play with native touches like Maldivian hammocks over the sand. Pass under a canopy of tangled branches to recline under the stars at the Jungle Cinema with warm popcorn and chilled Champagne.

Leisure Activities
With so much of the reef unexplored, diving at the Laamu Atoll is an adventure of discovery. Due to the secluded location and undisturbed nature, new dive sites of interest are bound to reveal itself.

The Laamu Atoll offers pristine untouched hard coral gardens with a large variety of fish life for inner and outer reef dives, as well as channel diving with encounters of sharks, barracudas, stingrays, napoleon wrasses and of course, our friendly turtles are waiting for you! Our professional multilingual dive team will provide you lessons and information about diving in the Maldives and will ensure that your diving holiday experience is a special one!

Ocean Dimensions is the only Dive, Surf & Water Sport Centre in the Laamu Atoll and offers a wide range of activities to suit every interest and level of experience. Ride the Maldives’ famous Yin Yang wave, an eight-foot break just off Laamu’s palm fringed shore and Laamu’s surf coach helps first timers stand up on paddleboards then conquer the beginner waves also in our midst. Kite surf from a nearby sandbank, after a romantic breakfast or before a private dinner picnic on its intimate shores.

Windsurf, canoe, catamaran sail, wakeboard and water ski, spot dolphins while cruising the open sea, or head underwater to snorkel day and night among staghorn and mushroom corals with Laamu’s resident marine biologist who knows where green turtles and eagle rays roam along Laamu’s teeming house reef.
