Six Senses Laamu

About Six Senses Laamu

Six Senses Laamu holds a unique position in the Maldives — it is the only resort in the entire Laamu Atoll, making it one of the most genuinely remote and exclusive properties in the archipelago. Located in the southern Maldives, Laamu Atoll is characterised by exceptional biodiversity, pristine reefs, and a dolphin population often spotted directly from the overwater villas.

The resort's 94 villas blend into the natural landscape — built from sustainable and local materials in keeping with the Six Senses philosophy of harmony with the environment. The property runs on solar power and operates one of the most rigorous sustainability programmes of any Maldives resort.

Six Senses Laamu is one of the premier surf destinations in the Maldives, with the resort's Tropicsurf school offering guided access to exceptional breaks in the southern atolls. Combined with world-class diving, it attracts those seeking genuine ocean adventures alongside exceptional luxury.
