Had an amazing time at Lux celebrating my birthday! Staff are very attentive and friendly, the food is wonderful and the beach is just stunning. We were taken care of very well at the day spa, enjoyed getting a massage while looking through the glass...More
I doubt is you could find a more relaxing place to spend a vacation. Wonderful beaches, beautiful villas, fabulous choice of restaurants all served by the warmest friendliest staff you could hope to meet. The whole trip was faultless.

This was our first visit to the Maldives and also a birthday celebration for yours truly. It started off in the worst possible way, when our flight from Singapore into Male was delayed and we missed the last connecting flight & ferry to the resort....More

My Fiance and I are staying in the LUX at the end of August / September for our honeymoon, and had a few questions. The first question, is about prices for everything. We haven't booked any packages, and were just wondering what a typical drink at the bar costs/ranges? What a typical Breakfast/Lunch/Dinner would cost at the restaurants as well? That way we can better decide if we'd like to go with an INCLUSIVE option.
Also, we noticed that the Maldives is now on the CDC's Zika Control List for mosquitoes bites. Since we are planning on having children fairly soon, this is a concern for us. Is there any information regarding the Zika virus at this particular resort? Does anyone know if mosquitoes are actually a problem here? We are very curious to know...

I don't think you need to worry about mosquitoes or bugs at Lux...!
I'd recommend you take a meal plan if available... An average meal for two would be a minimum $100+taxes.

Hi we are planning on staying at the resort in early August 2017 and I was just wondering what the weather would be likely to be then by past experiences? Are there a lot of mosquitoes at the resort? My husband is very allergic to the bites. Is there daily spaying of the vegetation to prevent too many mosquitoes? Thanks

i cannot comment on the weather in August as this would be seasonal. However i do know that between5 to 6 pm they do fumegate the island to control insects.
There is also an onsite clinic with a doctor should you have any concerns, specifically for mosquitos & repelants.
it is located near the Gym & Children Play area

Hi! For those who stayed in a Beach Villa (not Beach Pavillion):
Do the villas have a coral reef in front of them? Are the beach villas located on the side of the island with more corals?
Also, is there any privacy? In the photos, the beach villas seem very close together.
Thank you!

Hi, we stayed in Beach Villa 249 which is on the Lagoon side (it is the very last one on that side on the way towards Senses Restaurant) - it is very private and the lagoon is shallow with beautiful calm water. We couldn't see our neighbours in their villa at all. We hope to go back next year and we would stay in the same villa. The villa was just a few minutes walk from restaurants too which we really liked. Enjoy your stay there it's beautiful!
