Looking to get away for a bit? Retreat to this luxurious oasis at the Six Senses Laamu, the only resort in Laamu Atoll – five degrees north of the equator.

Here’s some information about the resort from Six Senses Laamu:

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 over-water lounges and restaurants, the 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 over water villa built of sustainable materials and spread generously around our palm fringed paradise found 45 minutes south by scheduled flight from Male International Airport.
