Returned from LUX* Maldives 2 weeks ago after a 10 night stay for our honeymoon. This truly was the best holiday/honeymoon EVER…everything was perfect even when the monsoon’s came! From the moment we landed into Male until we left we were very well looked after…it’s nice to have an air-conditioned lounge whilst waiting for the seaplane. TIP - If you... More

This place is great! - writing this while sitting in the leaving area and sad to be going home. Its a bigger island than some of the others but that means you can take a run round it to burn off some of the excellent food (2.5miles roughly). Alot of people on here complain about the food or lack of... More

We had the most wonderful 7 nights at the Lux. The staff was absolutely amazing. They truly made our experience wonderful. We did the Half Board option and had a choice of all the restaurants. All were great, and we ate far too much! The beaches and the pools were beautiful. There are many hotels to choose from in the... More

As this was our honeymoon we searched for a special trip. We paid a lot for our stay here, but we expected more from it. Our sea plane flight to the hotel was delayed by three hours. During that time we could stay in a private lounge on Male. We paid for the whole day (all inclusive package) but lost... More

My wife and I had the pleasure of staying at the Lux* Maldives in February this year (apologies for the late post).

The Island is lovely, for long walks and with numerous areas to sit, have a drink or food; and the hotel has an extensive range of bars, restaurants and activities. The rooms are spacious, and the features are modern and stylish. The bed in... More
