    ...You get a dedicated helper (a “GEM”) who quickly makes it clear that nonrequest is too much... For balance… if I had to criticise the resort I would say that I wouldn’t charge over $6 (post taxes) for a bottle of plain in-house water at meals... We were full board and so frequently were signing for just water for a meal... Also the pricing on the odd service seems a bit toppy: $395 for renting a water scooter (one of those things that drags you through the water) for an hour, or $15 for a lemonade... Clearly this is a high end resort and so I understand there’s going be premium pricing, but even so… The above certainly didn’t do enough to warrant us not giving it 5 stars... The flight feom Male (and this is no fault of the resort) is a chartered flight, not a sea plane...

    ...We payed around £1000 per night on a half board option in the entry level water villas... On the whole the experience was good but there are a few things that just felt substandard for our expectations and their price point... Just not acceptable at Maldives SS prices... Worst of all were the steps from the villa to the water... They were made of cheap splintering wood and were so steep you never felt secure going down them... The faff to go to the domestic terminal, hang around for the plane, 1 hour domestic flight then a boat just was not worth it in our opinion and such a waste of precious holiday time...

    We recently stayed at this unique island in the Maldives that far exceeded our expectations... The resort has a well staffed and established marine conservation team who we snorkelled with and went to their talks on various things which really enhanced our appreciation and understanding of what we saw... Shout out to Sarah who lent me her snorkel whilst out as mine started to fall... The hotel is superbly run and well laid out so as to not feel crowded... The buffets were a league above with live cooking to order at each station... The service from everyone was fabulous, with staff ready to engage and chat or discreetly withdraw... A big thank you to the staff member who spotted my bike stand had broken off when we parked up to watch the outdoor film... To our amazement, it was fixed by the time we came back to the bike after the film... But we have to give special mention to Ashraq our Guest Experience Manager who was a real gem!... From booking all our restaurant reservations, any daily activities and spa treatments, to rearranging the schedule when rain stopped play, all without prompting... He discreetly found us every day to make sure we wanted for nothing...

He was assigned to us for our entire stay and just organised anything and everything for us, from dinner reservations, classes, and dives, to daily fresh milk for our villa... We created a WhatsApp connection, which was such a convenient and relaxed way to communicate, to help us keep on top of our daily schedule of classes etc and to have early sight of the evening's menu... Ash would also 'pop up' here and there just to check in with us and to make sure we had everything we needed...

    Thank you to the entire 6 Senses team for the most extraordinary holiday. We had a magical 4 nights in your resort and could not have been happier... From the moment we stepped off the boat to the dock we felt the resort gave us a very personalised experience... Our Guest Experience Manager (GEM) was indeed a gem - Amsud took charge of our every need from spa bookings, wellness, dinner bookings, surf and snorkelling and other experiences... His attention was complimented by the quality of our experiences... Yoga and Wellness was excellent, surf tours well resourced and the day spa exceptional... 6 Senses also offered 3 different dinner options and exceptional breakfast and twice weekly a buffet that defies belief for its quantity, options and quality... So for us it was a 5 star experience and one that we will never forget for its personalised and focussed approach... Thanks to Management, GEM Amsud and Archie and the Tropic Surf Team...

Patrick, Hemant, Khoyode, Helen, Riza, Lawrence, Abida, etc and compliments to all the chefs there... All the staff were very friendly and eager to help out... Thank you Sixth Senses Laamu, we made some great memories with my family at your resort that we will always remember and talk about...

    The level of service and thought was nothing short of exceptional. Met by the resort rep in Male, escorted through domestic flight to Olhuveli Island and onto the resort itself was very smooth and professional... The greeting on arrival was really nice and made us feel at home... We were looked after by Ashraq our guest experience maker, who made our trip the best it could have been... His attention to detail was second to none and helped us with any queries we had... The ocean water villa we were in was amazing with everything thought of from bicycles with our initials on to an updated activities list from daily yoga, waterspor tand dining... We were well looked after at the bar by Jason & shugar who made very good whiskey sours!... The team at Tropic surf ( Archie, Angela, Saif & Clayton), were great and made it easy, guiding us around the local surf breaks... Diving with Deep Blue Divers was great fun and they were extremely helpful and professional throughout our time there... It was an amazing experience made special by the resort staff who were exceptional...I cant recommend Six Senses, Laamu, enough!...

    ...:-) But besides the amazing accommodation and natural beauty of this island , the greatest is the staff, and the way how everybody has a smile on their face and try as hard as they can for the guests to have an amazing experience. One of the things that impressed is the most is that each couple has a dedicated guest personal concierge that organizes all the activities and make the experience even smoother... Ours was Stephany, she is very sweet, with great attention to detail and she did an amazing job with us, well done Stephany!!...

    ...We had a wonderful family holiday; our experience of this very special place was taken to the next level by the excellent service received throughout all of our interactions with the staff on the island. Special mention must be made of our GEM, Ath-har... Being taken care of by him was an unexpected delight, and really added to the enjoyment of our holiday... The den gave our children plenty of varied activities to choose from, and the staff were warm and welcoming, interested in getting to know the children visiting... Laamu is a beautiful place, well considered and beautifully looked after by the staff at Six Senses... They do not just pay lip service to ‘sustainability’ but instead devote effort, time and resources to their environmental and marine conservation efforts... Our thanks goes to the entire team at the resort for their unpretentious, yet exceptional service...

Upon arrival at the resort our Guest Experience Maker Ashraq greeted us and then provided a thorough tour of the island before dropping us at our villa...

Overall he was a pleasure to deal with and ensured that our experience was unforgettable...

    Came here for a family holiday as a group of 9 and we were very well taken care for by our GEM, Aslah. He had no trouble meeting our requests and was extremely accommodating when it came to arranging our group activities... We especially appreciate the complimentary bubblies and sunset cruises when we couldn’t see any dolphins... Our housekeeping staff, Aiman, was amazing as well... We’d always come back to our room with our clothes nicely folded and the turn down service was a blessing at the end of a tiring day... Although the service attitude of a few other staff members could be better, it was generally a very pleasant vacation...

    ...All of the dive team took such good care of us and were always so accommodating, planning out the best dive sites and ensuring we could return to any favourites... 👌 Ameen our GEM was brilliant, taking great care of all of our plans and sharing info & history about Laamu and the Maldives... He even managed to source a forgotten (very important) battery for us from Male which meant that the camera/housing my partner brought all the way from London wasn’t useless and he could get some great shots of the Mantas!... Service was 5⭐️, all of the team were so friendly, the Asian street market night was our favourite along with Leaf... The Woman running the dessert station (sorry forgot your name) made the best Creme brûlée and doughnut’s 👏 Highly recommend and even more so if you love diving or want to try !...

Our guest experience maker Ainura is an amazing professional, she created an absolutely magical atmosphere, for the first time I didn’t think about anything on vacation, everything was very well organized...

Bravo to the management team, you managed to create an amazing team that creates a fairy tale for guests and a great desire to return...

All our dinner reservations were booked via Amsood and we enjoyed all the amazing food on offer... Our package was “full board” and you will definitely never go hungry...

    ...From the outset, we were greeted by the wonderful Six Senses Laamu staff who welcomed us when we arrived by boat... From that day on, Ashraq guided us as we planned our itinerary which ranged from a dolphin sunset cruise, snorkeling, a wonderful wine tasting dinner and simply vegging out pool side... And the entire staff is attentive and friendly... But again, our GEM Ashraq was a stand out who went above and beyond to make sure that we enjoyed every day of our experience, up to and including our departure... Ashraq and staff were unbelievably able to assist and make sure that we were able to make our international connecting flights, notwithstanding an unpredictable weather event that delayed the domestic flight... This effort on their part is just a reflection of their end-to-end meticulous care... Without question we will return soon and I would highly recommend Six Senses Laamu looking for anyone who is looking to prioritize wellness/restoration, beauty, diversity of food and adventure and genuinely kind and supportive hosts...

    We recently stayed at this unique island in the Maldives that far exceeded our expectations... We saw green turtles from our water villa deck every day, literally meters away... The resort has a well staffed and established marine conservation team who we snorkelled with and went to their talks on various things which really enhanced our appreciation and understanding of what we saw... Shout out to Sarah who lent me her snorkel whilst out as mine started to fall... The hotel is superbly run and well laid out so as to not feel crowded... The food was amazing with a focus on health and wellbeing so every conceivable juice and smoothie is available at breakfast!... The buffets were a league above with live cooking to order at each station... The service from everyone was fabulous, with staff ready to engage and chat or discreetly withdraw... From booking all our restaurant reservations, any daily activities and spa treatments, to rearranging the schedule when rain stopped play, all without prompting...

    We're just back from a fabulous 7 night stay at this real gem of a hotel. We've been to many a smart hotel over the years but Six Senses Laamu has pushed the bar very high indeed... He was assigned to us for our entire stay and just organised anything and everything for us, from dinner reservations, classes, and dives, to daily fresh milk for our villa... We created a WhatsApp connection, which was such a convenient and relaxed way to communicate, to help us keep on top of our daily schedule of classes etc and to have early sight of the evening's menu...

    ...Our beach villa was gorgeous, huge and very private! We loved the concept of this resort, barefoot all the time, even in the Evening, wonderful healthy food, amazing spa and wellness workshops... Everyday there are lots os activities to choose from: from wellness workshops, to snorkeling, coconut oil making, Pilates, facial yoga, sunset cruises, dolphins cruises, evening talks about the community, cinema under the stars…... The spa massages and treatments are 5 stars as well as the therapists... One of the things we loved the most was the mobility inside the resort: everyone has his own bike with his own license plate... It’s so good to go around in each owns bike!!!... There is also an ice cream stand totally complimentary from 10h30 am to 10h30 at night... The ice creams are home made and delicious (vegan and gluten free available too)... Everyone is smiling, from the staff to the clients!... The food is very good and there is a huge attention to food allergies, intolerances, vegan or vegetarian diets Breakfast is very good with lots of healthy options!... You were one of the major reasons we loved our stay!...

The moment you just step out of the villa and immerge yourself into the water with the snorkeling gear, you can already see the beautiful corals, seagrass, marine animals down under... Thanks to our "Guest Experience Maker" Ashraq, he did a great deal to make our trip worry-free... With his arrangement, we need not worry where and what to eat, but be ascertain that the food will be superb... The room always looked clean and fresh everyday...

    ...I chose the resort very carefully, it was important to be far from Male (so that there was no reminder of civilization around), the live reef, delicious food, a good spa, the abundance of water and beach villas and big green island... We spent 5 days at the Laamu water villa and 5 days at the ocean beach villa... Beach villas provide ultimate privacy and vast grounds!... Both villas have absolutely everything you need and much more, even their own music for meditation and incense.. Food at the hotel is a separate part of the pleasure... Breakfast is very varied, healthy and everything is super fresh, I’m a honey junkey so they have lots of flavours I can’t count them all... We spent almost all of our lunches at the chill bar, we shared dinners evenly with zen and leaf, haute cuisine, bravo to the chefs!... The house reef of the hotel is quite rich and very well maintained, we swam a lot with sharks, rays and turtles️ Complementary ice cream with 48 flavors will be offered to you by charming Abby, who always knows how to surprise you) The island itself is picturesque, with beautiful sand, dense jungle and incredibly clear turquoise ocean water, just wow!... Spa treatments are nice, try treatments with Bo and Pema...

A truly amazing jewel at Laamu Atoll! The major attraction is the spectacular underwater world! Snorkelling 🤿 and diving is a must do on your agenda! The coral reef is phenomenal and even for experienced Maldives visitors impressive of the spectrum of species you will easily see! Barefoot luxury feeling at its best when it comes to the resort areas. All villas are so charming. If you like the rustic Robinson cruso atmosphere you will love this place. It’s an open environment and so of course you will have mosquitos and geckos. The entire team is extremely friendly and understands hospitality in the most warm way possible. F&B is a super healthy and tasty! Quality of ingredients is high and you will enjoy so many ice cream as you like. The Shell project is outstanding and gives you such a good understanding how important it is to take care of our planet. I would recommend Six Senses Laamu 100%!!!

Where to start… Six Senses Laamu was simply exceptional! My wife and I were visiting to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary so we wanted somewhere special, this resort did not disappoint. The whole experience starting from arriving at Male airport was absolutely flawless. All staff were very friendly, professional and attentive, nothing was too much trouble. The island was stunning as was our over water villa. We spent so much time snorkelling as there was so much to see. There were lots of other activities available, so you really could do as much or as little as you want. The food was really good, theme nights were great, restaurant and kitchen staff were brilliant. Special mention to our GEM Pablo. He was awesome, an absolute credit to Six Senses. He arranged everything for us and his suggestions were always spot on, making the trip that bit more special. We cannot thank him enough. Thanks to everyone… we really hope to be able to return!

Beautiful surroundings, outstanding property, warm, phenomenal and attentive staff. The property has everything you need to enjoy unforgettable vacation in paradise. Special highlight for Freddie the remarkable resort manager who has been amazing the entire stay. A special thank you to the wonderful tropic surf team. Fiona, Josh and Saif have been awesome and especially great coachs, it was a wonderful experience to be able to do my first waves with them and have very precise follow ups and tips in order to improve. The spa is unique, thank you Imme and Karma for the unforgettable relaxing time you gave me. The entire F&B team has been very attentive and caring, I unfortunately couldn’t remember all the names but everyone deserves a special highlight. Shout out to Oliver the F&B Director, for the great leader you are for them. Akul at Leaf restaurant stood out and made my last dinner experience unforgettable. Very professional, caring, smiling, great recommendations and knowledge especially about the wines, and always reads its guests perfectly. Thank you! A big thank you to Aiman who ensured and organised himself to make my stay confortable. He took perfect care in order for me to have a beautiful room the entire stay. Last but not least, a special thank you and shout out to Rikke my Dutch compatriot who has been just exceptional from the beginning to the end. Thank you Rikke for the very warm welcome upon arrival and heartfelt goodbye. From the beginning you stole my heart with your genuine care and if you didn’t tell me you were only a month into your position, I would have thought you were there for years. With such grace you did your duties every day that it was a pleasure to watch those few days you enjoying your job and take great pride in it. I can see a bright future for you in the hospitality industry.  Thank you to everyone, see you soon!

Our stay in the Six Sense Laamu was incredible! We loved every minute of it. Our GEM Soba was so attentive and thoughtful throughout our trip, making sure that we were both comfortable and able to take part in the activities we wanted to do. Snorkelling, Scuba diving, Surfing, Volleyball, Paddle boarding - all amazing! A special thanks to the Dive team for taking us on the most incredible dives. Thanks to Soba and the rest of the team at Six Senses Laamu - it really was the trip of a lifetime!

We had a wonderful 4 days honey moon stay at Lammu. Love the wooden style facilities, super friendly staff especially our manager Tanny who definitely made our stay the most fruitful, diversified activity arrangements and last but not least the great food! The view is breathtaking for sure, but it’s the people who made our overall experience unforgettable.

We recently visited Six Senses Laamu for the third time, and once again, it was pure bliss! The island's beauty, especially the ocean beach villas set in the lush jungle greens right in front of these amazing waters, is unparalleled. A huge shoutout to our GEM Shah, whose personalized service made this stay really exceptional. Kudos to Sarat for fantastic yoga sessions, Sharky for the lively vibes, and the talented chefs for the culinary experience, especially Ismat for the incredible desserts. The staff's warmth and attention to detail make Six Senses Laamu feel like a home away from home. Looking forward to visit number four! PS The house reef was in exceptional condition. Really nice to see the conservation efforts making a difference. And being able to observe a turtle hatching right in front of our villa was

Great location for honey moon, but will love to come back with friends and family. We loved how everything is well taken care of, and suited to any person who wants to experience life on an island. And the staff are the best, they are always at your service to help you and guide you. Pablo was our man in our visit to Six Senses, I would highly recommend him to any Spanish speakers that goes there.

We had the most incredible stay during our time at Six Senses Maldives, it was truly a special trip. What makes Six Senses as a brand so special is their ethos that seems to transfer from property to property (we visited the Bhutan location earlier this year), these values are unrivalled hospitality from all staff who are all so kind and friendly and happy to help whatever the request, the incredible food and drinks, the focus around sustainability and just general world class hotel experience. What we loved about the Six Senses Maldives specially was the incredible location and stunning surroundings, the hospitality and our incredible GEM Shah who went above and beyond for us to make sure we had the trip of a lifetime (thank you Shah for everything), the complimentary activities (snorkelling, breathwork and sound healing in yoga studio) and learning opportunities with the sustainability tours in the SHELL and the incredible team (Greg and co) supporting these efforts to conserve the Maldives. There are many other names to mention who made the stay special but honestly there wasn’t one person who we interacted with who weren’t amazingly friendly and helpful.

It was the best experience we could wish for our honeymoon. From the beginning until the end of our stay, we absolutely loved everything. The villa is amazing, and staying most part of the day there is a pleasure. The food experience is also incredible, with many different options, with the highlights of Zen (japanese food) and Leaf restaurants. The experiences were also marvellous. We did the private island, where we spent all the day at a island on the middle of nowhere by ourselves and its beautiful. We also loved the sunset dolphin cruise, where we saw many dolphins and enjoyed some prosecco with a unique sunset. Our GEM, Shah, was incredible and so polite, he arranged a perfect stay program for us. We also did the wine challege with Akul, who shared so much wine knowledge with us, it was incredible and we highly recommend - and we of course had amazing wines! Also worth commenting on the Sake Bar, a lovely experience for Sake lovers, where there are many different types of Sake and we were attended by Anwar, who was so nice and taught us about different styles of Sake and helped us to find our favorite one! And last but not least, all the people on the Hotel are so nice with you, that they make you feel at home, but its worth mentioning Shahho, that served us in Zen, and was fantastic.
