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. :)

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “Worth Selling a Kidney For… Almost!” My wife has already volunteered to sell one of my kidneys so we can come back for her next big birthday — that probably tells you everything you need to know about how much we loved LUX South Ari Atoll*! From start to finish, the experience was incredible. A special shoutout to Rafith, who came to the rescue when we faced what looked like an 8-hour wait at Malé airport on our return. Even though the situation wasn’t really the resort’s fault, he managed to arrange a later checkout and gave us a discount to use the lovely LUX Lounge* (which you also enjoy on arrival). That level of care really stood out. As for the resort itself — well, it’s easy to see why people rave about this place. The service is genuinely fantastic, and it’s one of the few destinations where your photos actually look like the postcards. We swam with turtles, manta rays, whale sharks, and reef sharks — simply unforgettable. The food was fabulous, the beaches pristine, and the water that unreal shade of turquoise you always dream about. In short: great trip, great service, and a truly stunning location. We’ll be back (once I’ve recovered from the kidney negotiations)

We were in the local atoll and wanted to see the resort in person before we booked. Staff rudely would not allow. What we saw, we were not impressed with. Huts were really close together with limited privacy. Save your money and stay at other resorts such as the JW Marriott (much nicer).
Felicia Davids
This was our first stay at Lux South Ari Atoll and it was SUPERB. Absolutely the BEST resort in the Maldives. The service was absolutely amazing. Every staff member was friendly and helpful. The experience and memories are priceless. This is definitely more then 5stars⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ and we can't wait to return.
Sarah Mottram
Incredible holiday at the Lux resort. The service was absolutely amazing – every staff member was so friendly and helpful, and a special thank you to Ahmed who made our stay even more memorable. The food was outstanding, with a brilliant variety across the restaurants – from Asian to Italian, and the Maldivian curry was simply incredible. Having several dining options was a real bonus compared to other resorts we had looked at. Our water villa was just outstanding, the best place I've ever stayed. We also went diving, fishing, and snorkelling – all unforgettable experiences, with so much marine life to see. This was a truly exceptional holiday, and we can’t wait to go back!
