How many times has the Maldives made it to international headlines for being a top romantic or honeymoon destination? Countless. Hence, many people around the world believe that you only dream of coming here on your honeymoon, but that’s just ¼ of the truth. LUX South Ari Atoll is everybody’s island paradise resort, for families, couples, single travelers alike. Here, everyone can turn their life into a complete celebration, whether it’s simply chillin’ all day at the pool, having ice cream with the kids or going on a sunset cruise with your loved one.

Care for the environment

In 2019, LUX* South Ari Atoll was awarded Leading Eco-Friendly Resort in the Maldives at the 2019 South Asian Travel Awards (SATA). This prestigious title is well-deserved by this stunning property for various reasons including Edible straws, biodegradable cups and plant-based “beef”. The biodegradable straws, made from cooked rice flour, tapioca starch and water, can last up to one hour before they soften and eventually dissolve. The resort avoids importing any product that can be made in-house. You’ll find manta rays, sharks and birds but one thing you’ll never find here is plastic

Wildlife

Speaking of manta rays and sharks, welcome to a diver’s nirvana. The dive center provides full training and PADI certification for all levels while the resort water sports center will have you snorkeling around remote sandbanks or trying any of their thrilling water sports. Experience the unique underwater world of the Maldives by diving in some of the world's best dive sites and colourful reefs boasting an abundance of marine life.

Culinary Voyage

Savour the essence of authentic island living at MIXE and authentic tastes from Thailand, China, Taiwan, Vietnam and the Philippines at the East Market. Enjoy a refreshing drink as you soak up those incredible watery views at the Veli Bar and have an excellent coffee at Café` LUX.

Water Villa Paradise

Here’s where simplicity meets elegance. You’ll find 110 square meters of pure romance that stands over the water. The resort’s Romantic Water Villa comes with a pool (as if the Indian Ocean wasn't enough already), a deck for lazing in the sun, a hanging bird's nest swing, a flight of steps to the lagoon, and all the imaginable comforts. Did someone say drop-down projector in bed?
