Simplicity meets elegance at LUX✯ South Ari Atoll. Thatched roof beach bungalows and villas perched over the warm Maldivian waters create a stylish seaside haven. Chaises-longues on the sandy shores invite guests to unwind beneath the palms, while staircases descend straight into the Indian Ocean. Whitewashed walls, light and airy spaces with bursts of color, and tropical foliage make for the ultimate laidback lifestyle. We have ten different categories, so whether you're flying solo or with a tribe of little travellers in tow, or whether you're more the water villa type than the beach one, you will find your fit.
