Lux* Maldives

Paradise is made of this! A small island resort, surrounded by a crystal-clear lagoon and miles and miles of ocean in shades of blue and turquoise.

This is the place for a real break, far removed from the bustle of modern life, on a beautiful island, full of tropical greenery, surrounded by a fabulous lagoon, perfect for swimming and snorkelling and close to the Maldives' best dive sites.The Maldives is famous for its marine diversity and especially for its whale-sharks, which average well over 20 feet in length.The country has some of the most fabulous sites for diving in the world and luxurious Lux* Maldives is the ideal base.The most beautiful sites are less than an hour from the Resort.

The boat journey makes diving trips even more enjoyable. Guests set out in dhonis, a traditional Maldivian form of boat, and an experience in itself. Feeding rays in the lagoon around the hotel is also one of the Resort's special attractions. The sea is never closer than in the exclusive Water Villas, standing on stilts over the lagoon. You can simply slip from your own private deck into the water. The island is 25 minutes from Malé by seaplane and 2½ hours by boat, a short journey but one that you will never forget.
