ISLAND PARADISE
Encircled by four kilometres of powder-fine beaches in the very south of the South Ari Atoll, this is the only hotel on the tropical island of Dhidhoofinolhu.
At the LUX* South Ari Atoll, you’ll be able to experience this secluded island paradise to the fullest. You can take to the water in banana boats, jet skis and catamarans, get up close to whale sharks and even get involved in marine conservation. On land, there’s floodlit tennis courts, two infinity pools and overwater treatment rooms at the LUX* Me Spa. Not to mention dining at eight fabulous restaurants. The coffee bar brews beans roasted right on the island, while the open-air cinema offers impromptu screenings.
You can start your days off with floating breakfasts in your pool, and end them with beautifully crafted dinners under the stars with your toes in the sands. Romantic, private meals can also be set up in the Herb Garden. When it comes to accommodation, you’ll have your pick between dreamy overwater villas and thatched roofed beach bungalows. Stylish, light and airy with whitewashed walls and tropical foliage, they provide the perfect base for your laidback island escape.
