Six Senses Laamu

The most amazing trip in absolute paradise! When we arrived we were introduced to our Guest experience manager Shah who was so friendly and was always on hand throughout the trip to cater to our every need. There was so much to do and see, and lots of food options. We had the best time and couldn’t have wished for a better trip.

What a beautiful place!! all the staff are amazing but Shihan is just the best. The excellent service, really kind people, the safety of this place is amazing, attention to the details, Very well organised. We'll definitely come back soon! Thank you so much

A gorgeous place, with a perfect staff, good restaurants, and a wonderful submariner world. A fantastic place to do snorkeling. Great SPA with therapists on the top ! Sustainable place too, really respectful of nature ! And above everything, GEM Rikke !!!

We chose Six Senses Laamu for our honeymoon based on out friends' recommendation. The whole experince was truly amazing and exceptional, our stay was made super comfortable and enjoyable with the help of our assigned Guest Experience Manager (Abdulla!) who made sure our schedule had a variety of wonderful activities booked and who took away the hassle of choosing a restaurant for dining every evening. The wayer villa we stayed in and overall service was also exceptional to js. We felt so welcomed and our comfort was prioritized by all. The island and the water are gorgeous and we had so much fun exploring; we will be coming back!

The whole experience was amazing. 1) the reef and sea life was so bountiful and right off the resort. Every time we got in the water there were sharks, turtles, rays and more. Don’t miss the sea grass!! 2) not wearing shoes for a week really does have magical powers to make you feel so relaxed 3) the GEMs are all amazing - ours, Shah went above and beyond every day to make sure we had the perfect trip and suggest / bring us things that we didn’t even think of. He also just brings a sense of joy to every conversation and is an amazing photographer. He is definitely part of our story and friend now! 4) every staff member we encountered is wonderful, from the meal service, to the dive center or housekeeping. A big shoutout to Aksham and Nail who always made our dinners special. 5) we really enjoyed all the different activities that were offered from massage workshops, snorkels with marine biologist, jungle cinema. The sandbank is an amazing place to watch the sunset and the private island is such a surreal wonderful experience. Highly recommend. 6) Every dining option was awesome and the food was so delicious. The platting at leaf was always so inventive I had to take pictures. The “buffet” nights are not at all buffet and more live cooking stations and was so fun to explore different cuisines that I had never tried. Breakfast was always amazing and I especially loved my sea life pancakes! I am jealous that you are even considering getting to go here!

Six Senses Laamu is a truly special, magical place to be. It is more than a holiday in the traditional sense. Yes, your every material need is catered for in a unique and very pampering way! But so much more than that, it is an uplifting and indulgent experience for the mind and soul. The influence of the West is present in all the many amenities and activities on offer, the exemplary standards of service (our Guest Entertainment Manager, Shihan, couldn’t do enough for us and looked after us like family throughout our stay - truly exceptional), food and beverages etc. always excellent. Our housekeeper, Ali, also went well beyond what would be expected to make our stay comfortable and seamless, spoiling us every day with all the personal touches and his beautiful smile. But more than this - perhaps given the proximity to India and Thailand - is the influence of the East. You feel “held” somehow in this spirit of wellness, joy and freedom. The staff become family. The warmth of the smiles all around you, the sincerity of feeling, this hotel genuinely cares about you and your personal experience with them. Special mention to Abdullah - like a little angel of comfort and support he always seemed to appear at the perfect time to bring comfort and support. What a wonderful, joyful man! It is because this hotel cares for its own staff, which is rare and wonderful to see and feel. The Spa also deserves an extra special mention as again, your every physical need is catered for with a plethora of incredible treatments given by top-class practitioners like Anil, Benita and Ecca. As you would expect from a 5 star resort. But, again, it is so much more than a spa. Yoga and meditation are available every day - as much or as little as you would like to do - with daily complimentary sessions. The beautiful spirit that is Sarath Babu overlooks all of it and helped me to reconnect and stabilise at a difficult time in my life. Just a uniquely gifted, generous, wise, caring and insightful man. Even going to the lengths of making me a complimentary, personal meditation recording to take with me on my journey back home. Incredible! With all of this and their respect for nature - and my God the nature they have! It is an just utterly breathtaking location. But is treated with respect and, whilst giving you every material comfort you could want with a “fun and quirky” twist, it is down to earth and simple in approach. Not opulent or gaudy. Which I just loved, Sustainability is given top priority. Not just a marketing tool like so many places. All in all a magical experience that I have taken home with me and will never forget. I will return - with family and also alone - without a doubt. Paradise. Thank you.

We just had an amazing holidays in Six Senes Laamu. It exceeded our expectation on every level. Transfer from Male was very smooth and their crew took care on every single detail. Our GEM was Shah and he provided us with the excellent care during our visit, ensuring every day was special and full of unforgettable experiences. They have a wide range of restaurants and we did not eat twice in the same place. Food is excellent. The house reef is fantastic, colourful coral, variety of fish, turtles, sharks, stingrays…you have it all just next to your house. I really enjoyed house reef snorkelling with a Marine Biologist, they tell you so many interesting facts. The resort's commitment to sustainability and education is very impressive. Their research lab and all the projects they run are great, and I am grateful they continue their work to protect this unique environment. There are still so many things we want to do, so definitely we will be back one day.

Six Senses Laamu is one of our favourite places on the planet. After visiting it for the first time in 2021 we did not hesitate to jump at the chance to revisit booking again with our three active and fun loving teenage kids. There is so much we love about it - the fabulous over water villas that make snorkelling the house reef a joy as many times a day as you like! The house reef is amazing - abundant coral, fish, turtles, sharks, then there’s sea grass all right on your doorstep, a complete treat! The over water dining and restaurant spaces are superb and so very special for breakfast dinners and sunset cocktails! We did some amazing dives and were lucky enough to dive with a manta on our last dive. We did yoga and had glorious spa treatments. The food is beyond delicious and cycling around the Island is the ultimate freedom! But really what makes Six Senses Laamu so very special are the people who create this amazing “vibe”. Marteyne the GM who welcomes you and introduces you to the team. Our INCREDIBLE Guest Experience Maker (GEM) Abdulla, who really is a Gem and one of the reasons we came back to Six Senses Laamu again. Nick at SIP SIP who makes the best mango Daiquiris and who has a fabulous sense of humour. Kush and Chin in the dive Centre who made our dives so informative and fun, Miri who taught us so much about Mantas, and the team who are doing such great work at the Maldives Underwater Initiative at Shell - SO inspiring and uplifting! The spa and yoga team and all the others who make you feel wonderful! You really do leave feeling so much better about life than when you arrived.
