LUX* South Ari Atoll

If you like your holidays to be active and funpacked, you’ve come to the right place. Fill your days with watersports galore, explore the two miles of pristine beachfront or visit the fabulous LUX* me spa for a revitalising treatment.

Located in the South Ari Atoll, just 20 minutes by seaplane from Malé, you’ll find a choice of 193 pavilions and villas offering beach or over-water settings. Interiors are contemporary with bright accents of colour and amenities include a TV, DVD player, complimentary WiFi and mini bar. Beach Pavilions and Villas are set right on the sand, whilst Water Villas and the sensational LUX* Villa are suspended on stilts over the water, offering incredible ocean views. Eight dining venues ensure you’ll never be short of choice, with options including authentic, island-inspired cuisine at MIXE, and a great selection of South East Asian dishes at East Market. The vast array of watersports on offer here include kite surfing, wakeboarding and flyboarding; diving and snorkelling are also excellent with a good chance of spotting whale sharks all year round. Other facilities include two stunning infinity pools, tennis courts, a gym and kids clubs.

Location

On Dhidhoofinolhu island in the South Ari Atoll.

Accommodation

Contemporary interiors, beautifully finished with bright accents of colour, feature all-modern amenities including a TV, complimentary WiFi and mini bar. A choice of 193 pavilions and villas means that whether you want to be on the beach, over the water, waking with the sunrise, or watching the sunset from the comfort of your furnished terrace, there is an option for you. Beach Pavilions offer a beautiful marble bathroom with outdoor shower and can interconnect, so are great for families, or Family Lagoon Pavilions sleep up to four adults and two children under 18 yrs in two bedrooms, each with an en-suite bathroom. Beach Villas boast a marble sunken bath and enlarged terrace and we recommend upgrading for a private plunge pool. Water Villas and Romantic Pool Water Villas are perfect for couples, with uninterrupted ocean views and direct access to the lagoon, while Temptation Pool Water Villas are larger and feature a separate living room with glass floor and 14 metre long private pool.

Restaurants And Bars

With eight dining venues, plus two further bars and Café LUX*, serving its own brand of locally produced coffee, you’ll never be short of choice, and it’s well worth upgrading to half board or all-inclusive, as three lunch and five dinner options are included. Gaze out to the ocean as you experience the authentic, island-inspired dishes of MIXE, head to East Market for a great selection of Thai, Chinese and Indonesian dishes, or if your palette is more European, Beach Rouge and Allegria Restaurant are just the ticket, offering Italian delights and pizzas for an easy family option.

Facilities

The South Ari Atoll boasts some of the best dive sites in the world and there is a high chance of spotting whale sharks here year round, so why not take the plunge and do a PADI course. If you’re not quite ready for that, try windsurfing, wakeboarding, hoverboarding or even flyboarding. PLAY kids’ club (3-11 yrs) and Studio 17 teens’ club (12-17 yrs) are both complimentary and provide daily changing activities from 9am-7pm, and while the kids are away why not visit the award-winning LUX* Me Spa for some ‘me time’ with a personally tailored experience. Further facilities include two stunning infinity pools, floodlit tennis courts and a fitness centre with all the latest Technogym equipment.

Sarah's View

OUR Maldives SPECIALIST

"As Dhidhoofinolhu is larger than most Maldivian islands, there is plenty of space for a fantastic choice of restaurants and activities, so every day can be different, or, of course, you can just enjoy the beautiful white sands and clear, warm waters."

"Chance upon a message in a bottle as you stroll along the beach and unfurl the note inside to discover your reward; perhaps a complimentary spa treatment or a private dinner!"

"We love the thoughtful little inclusions here, such as a red telephone box from which you can make complimentary calls home and the daily snorkelling trip to swim with turtles."

"‘Elegant, refined and understated’ - these are the words that Coral Reef Club’s many repeat guests use to describe this wonderful family-owned hotel."

"The Thursday night barbecue is out of this world and really shouldn’t be missed - the extraordinary culinary experience is followed by a floor show with limbo dancing and fire eating."

"The cottages here are all named after flowers, fruits and trees found in the hotel’s beautiful gardens - Head Gardener, Lloyd Richards, has worked at the hotel for nearly 30 years and his weekly horticultural tours are a real treat."

"Coral Reef Club is incredibly popular so make sure you book early, especially if you’re planning to visit in February."
