Six Senses Laamu

This was our second visit to Six Senses Laamu but after a 13 year gap! We noticed changes which were very positive and reflect the wonderful sustainability program they have together with the marine research initiative. The trip didn’t disappoint and our beautiful over water villa was a haven of relaxation. We saw so much underwater life right from our deck - turtles, rays, reef sharks and a myriad of fish. We were also privileged to see turtles hatching under the full moon, an experience I will never forget. The choice of restaurants is very good with top class food. We particularly enjoyed the traditional Maldivian fish curries cooked by Isse which were delicious . My husband celebrated his birthday with a beach BBQ under the stars which was fabulous and very memorable. Our guest experience manager Kim was on hand to organise any requests that we had and she looked after us brilliantly. Nothing was too much trouble and Kim’s passion for this island nation was very apparent and she was extremely knowledgeable about local life. She is a credit to the team, was very professional and always had a smile. I would also like to mention Nurse Arul who looked after me when I needed to visit the clinic. She was professional, caring and attentive and organised the necessary medication for me straight away. There is no doubt that Laamu is a special place yet it is made even better by the whole team of staff there who clearly take pride in what they do and want to make sure you enjoy every aspect of your holiday. Thank you to them all from us both.

Our stay at Six Senses Laamu was absolutely exceptional. From start to finish, the service was great and truly personalized. Our GEM Abdulla took care of every detail with warmth and professionalism. We were able to do a lot of different activities, such as snorkeling and surfing. The surfing instructors, Kyle, Asis, Sarife and Saif were incredible—super friendly, highly skilled, and made every surf session unforgettable. We couldn’t have wished for a better experience. Highly recommended!

Had a great holiday and would highly recommend coming here. The staff were amazing - especially Soba, Kathu and Shalin - they were very friendly and helpful in particular. We were so fortunate to have Soba as our GM. Loved playing football with some of the staff. Food was very good. Overall had such an amazing experience and I’m missing it here already.

We found paradise on the island of Six Senses Laamu. From riding around the island on bicycles, to the daily wellness programmes of yoga, meditation and highest quality nutrition including many vegan options, Laamu covers everything to create a tranquil wellness haven. The staff are exceptionally welcoming. We were very lucky to have Soba as our GM for our stay. He was so helpful throughout, responsive to all our needs and above all, the nicest, most humble and kindest manner and thoughtful throughout our stay. Soba arranged daily football with the other staff members which we were invited to join. Also a special mention to Shalin who was our wellness guide with daily yoga, sound healing, meditation chases. Also Kathu who always went out of his way to chat and show interest whenever we were at Sip Sip pool bar and Leaf restaurant. All the staff were fantastic, so many we can’t name but big thank you to everyone. The scuba along the coral reef is very good with manta, turtles and the most colourful aquatic life. Our water villa was incredibly spacious on two levels and kept exceptionally clean. All our needs were surpassed, cannot recommend Six Senses Laamu highly enough. It is exceptional. Six Senses has a wonderful balance of being a 5 star resort with a natural, boho vibe which was perfect for us.

The dive centre team were magical with several manta sightings at Fushi and Hithadhoo most days. Special thanks to the F&B, spa and water sports teams. Our GEM, Efro made the stay effortless with his friendly attentive service and multiple daily touch points. Great to hear inside stories of life growing up in the Maldives. We look forward to staying in touch and coming back for a third time!
