Lux* South Ari Atoll

We have a great time here in the island with my family. Kids have a lot of activities in the kids club. We are not worried that kids have nothing to do. They provide a lot of kids activities around the island! The food here was amazing! We love east market so much especially chef Esther. Our butler also amazing from the check in until the check out. Would like to thanks to her Ria

This was truly a dream destination. From being greeted by the staff when you get off the seaplane to the awesome food, drinks and service this resort has to offer. We stayed in a beach villa with private pool. Best choice you can make when it comes to types of room. Yoojin drove us over the island to make sure that we knew every perfect spot that we could go. We rented bikes during our stay, which made it easy to go around the island. If you don't want to bike, there is a "bus" (a cute little golf cart) driving over the island so you don't have to walk. It isn't a big island, but it can take some time from a to b if you're on foot. If you think of tropical dream destination with palmtrees and perfect sea and beaches, you get all this at this resort. The food is amazing!! The service is also impeccable (a big thank you to Manu). Make sure to get a LUX* frappe in the morning and some nice drinks in Beach Rouge during the evening. In short, the staff is amazing, food is amazing, location is amazing, service is amazing. Did I mention it is all amazing ;) It was really hard being back home and having to miss all that we had during our stay.

My wife and I stayed at LUX South Ari Atoll in 2017, and this is our second visit—we loved it. The staff is incredibly attentive and welcoming, greeting you throughout the day. Special thanks to Salwa and Ali for their exceptional service, and to Rifath for arranging the Manta excursion. The breakfast was expansive and wholesome, and with over five different restaurants offering diverse culinary experiences, the lunch and dinner options were plentiful.

We have had the pleasure of staying at a Lux previously and this resort doesn't fail to maintain those high standards set. Stepping off the sea plane you are immediately greeted by name and following a short check in, escorted to your room to allow you to freshen up (much needed after a long journey!). From there you are free to wander the island, interact with the wonderful staff and take advantage of the amazing food/activities on offer! We were lucky enough to spend an extended period on the island and therefore got to do everything on offer (a couple of times actually)! Following breakfast (which can be taken at one of two locations), we enjoyed an offset approach whereby we would go to the location where lunch wasn't being served that day. This meant that we would essentially have a pool/beach to ourselves and still get poolside service from the nearby bar. This was perfect for us and at times felt like we had the island to ourselves. The food is amazing, whether it be breakfast, lunch or dinner. We however particularly liked Mixe for breakfast, with Zahir going above and beyond to make sure we had everything we need at each stage and the lagoon bar for Lunch, which gives that quintessential island bar feel and does the most incredible mocktails. For dinner we couldn't pick a favourite as they each provided something different, although Umami gets a high rating for its Teppanyaki! We also recommend highly the activities on offer, whether it be the more relaxed Latte art class or coconut painting, the weekly quiz or something more adventurous like the water sports or snorkelling (we managed to see most of the sea life excluding a whale shark by doing this), there is always something to look forward to, supported by the friendly faces of the Lux staff. Everything at Lux is facilitated through your personal guest concierge who you can communicate to through WhatsApp during your stay, making it very convenient to plan your activities and dinner from the comfort of your room/sun lounger. The system works well, but is not perfect as we had some small booking errors but nothing that wasn't resolved within a couple of minutes. Thanks Salwa for all your support and making the stay extra special and relaxing! My final comment goes to the shuttlebus, which ferries guests from one end of the island to the other. While this could be seen as a boring necessity to be able to traverse the island, even this has the Lux touch, with extremely friendly and happy drivers. This made our many journeys across the island very enjoyable and pleasant, in keeping with the whole experience!

I recently stayed at LUX, and I absolutely loved it! The staff at LUX were incredibly friendly and attentive. They went above and beyond to ensure that every guest had a memorable stay. The service was top-notch, from the moment we checked in until we checked out. Our ambassador was Elena, she was so attentive and helpful to us. Many thanks, Elena😘 The resort offers a wide range of activities and amenities for guests to enjoy. There is a stunning infinity pool overlooking the ocean, where you can soak up the sun and take in the breathtaking views. Additionally, there are tennis courts, a fitness center, and a spa for those looking to stay active or indulge in some pampering. The accommodations LUX were luxurious and comfortable. One of the highlights of our stay was the dining experience at the resort. The restaurant served delicious and beautifully presented meals, with a variety of options to cater to different dietary preferences. The seafood was particularly fresh and flavorful, and the desserts were simply divine. Overall, my experience at LUX Resort was exceptional. I highly recommend this resort to anyone looking for a tropical paradise getaway.
