Six Senses Laamu

What an amazing resort! This six senses has everything: beautiful marinel life, nice weather, excellent food and amazing wines (I am a foodie!), enough activities and more that enough f&b locations to stay 9-14 days. And the staff is incredible. From housekeeping, marine life staff, the sommelier, to the people working at at the f&b, everybody is absolutely amazing (and hard working). Every guest is appointed a GEM (guest expert manager), as we are used to at other six senses locations. Our GEM, aka Riq, was the best host you could have: always there when you need him, helps you out with every booking/request and always with a genuine big smile. We left very early (5.30) and even then he is there to help you out. So Riq, if you are reading this: thank you for making our trip memorable. We are definitely coming back!

This was my 7th trip to the maldives, and it's hard to argue against it being the best yet! Six senses just checks all the boxes of the idyllic desert island holiday. I could write about the superb rooms and the excellent service and the fine dining quality food served at every meal (special shout out to the team at Zen). But to be honest all that was to be expected from the hotel. What I loved about this place is the special care about the environment and the environmentally conscious programs run by the team. In this day and age the uneducated and uncontrolled tourism becomes the threat and it is lovely to see the initiatives by the team at six senses. The GEMs at the hotel make everything easy and are there on call to answer any need (thank you Daniel) We loved our stay here and already yearn to go back.

I never had any interest to go to the Maldives, but, boy, was I wrong. Six Senses in the Laamu Atoll changed my mind forever. To say this is a 5 star resort is doing it a disservice. The welcoming staff is simply exemplary. All four restaurants were superb. We were there for a week and had such a rich variety of cuisines. The activities that are available are plentiful. I want to particularly recommend the diving. The diving instructors are fabulous, especially Dani. He made our diving experience a memory of a lifetime. Make sure to request a night dive. The facilities are tops. We stayed in two villas on jetty C looking on top of the water, looking out at the ocean. It was dreamlike. I can’t wait to return to this resort. In closing I want to mention some of the people who made our stay unforgettable: Fahudh - our villa/experience manager Hassan (spelling?) - restaurant manager Hisham - restaurant manager The cook who made the unique pancakes Kush - diving instructor Dani !!!!! - diving instructor - he ROCKS!!! Thank to everyone - from the friendly women and men who maintain the paths, beaches, bicycles, etc… to Martine, the general manager. You have created a slice of paradise. Until we meet again, Jan

Six Senses really do make your experience a relaxed and memorable one. The quality of customer service is exemplary. We were looked after extremely well with unobtrusive but thoughtful attention from our contact Riq. He would always ensure we were aware of activities and events and was responsive in making any last minute changes. If you are looking for an understated luxury experience in stunningly beautiful surroundings then we wound highly recommend Laamu.

The staff are extremely friendly and will bend over backwards to accommodate guests. There are plenty of activities for all interests. I suggest Warrens class on his probiotics program is very informative and a must do for health enthusiasts.
