The Maldives Elevated
Blow away the island footprints of old and step up for the Maldives reimagined with a sky-deck above your luxury, architect-designed penthouse.
As you kick-back high above, the island is a breezier, bluer place - with rooftop views that stretch to the horizon, and possibilities for relaxation that go further than ever before.
Adorned with sun-beds, and spots to dine - this is your personal space for play, suspended between sand or sea and the sky above - affording opportunities for new experiences, limited only by your imagination.
Roof-top revelers will savour sundowner cocktails but hanging out with perfect drinks is only the beginning. Think backyard barbecues with a roof-top twist or let us transform your night time sky- deck to the most secret of outdoor private cinemas with your choice of celluloid stars.
Stretch body and soul with sunrise yoga and tai chi, sooth yourself with a moon-lit spa treatment elevated by nature’s soundtrack of lapping waves - or invite friends up for a LUX* Master Chef dinner party.
In this penthouse paradise every day is dazzlingly different from the Maldives that’s gone before. You have the perfect people, the perfect place - it’s time to pop open a bottle and raise a toast to sky-high adventures.
House Reef and Caves — A Rare Combination
Having a house reef on our lap as well as white sandy beaches and spectacular diving caves sets a new standard for treasure-hunters seeking underwater adventures with just a snorkel and mask.
For those wanting to dive deeper, there’s a fully equipped PADI dive centre to chaperone beginners and pros alike on voyages of undersea discovery — and this doesn’t even have to end at sundown.
Navigating guests to night-diving escapades will provide a dazzling alternative perspective on that colourful watery world below.
Set Sail On Our Catamaran
Set sail to explore the lesser-known atolls and desert islands on our luxurious Lagoon 40 catamaran. The sleek boat features three cabins with ensuite bathrooms, dining spaces and a sun lounge, perfect to bask in the Maldivian sun. Whether you choose to halt at a sandbank for a picnic or in the middle of the ocean to dive underwater, or even get married at sea, our catamaran is the perfect vessel for celebration.
A Surfer's Paradise
Whether seeking dreamy spots to kitesurf or the perfect mix of left and right waves to ride, the North Malé Atolls never disappoint. A fiercely guarded local secret discovered by shipwrecked surfers in the 1970s, the spot has contributed to the growing Maldives surf scene. For those in search of easy, flowing waves (and bathtub-temperature water), there’s nothing quite like it.
Kite Surfing
During the breezier months of the year, from May to September, LUX* North Malé Atoll is a haven for kite surfers. Harness the power of the elements and glide across what is, undoubtedly, the bluest water in the world to sandbanks and peaceful beaches fringed with swaying coconut palms. The shallows and warm temperatures make this spot a playground for kite surfers of all levels.
Wave Surfing
LUX* North Malé Atoll has its very own surf break - The LUX* Break - ideal for beginners looking to ride the rolling waves a mere five-minute jet ski ride away from the resort. For the long-time surfers seeking the perfect break, the resort is within a 40-minute speedboat ride from the country’s best surf spots.
Evgeny Novozheev, Guinness world record holder and four-time Russian national champion of Kite Freestyle, shares his experience from LUX* North Malé Atoll.
Dive Deeper - Day Or Night
There’s nothing quite like the sense of weightlessness wonder as you dive deeper into the perfect azure waters of the Maldives - a dazzlingly different, spectacularly colourful world of underwater life.
A fully equipped PADI dive centre offers beginners and pros alike the opportunity to swim alongside iconic sea turtles and manta rays - or even hunt for a shipwreck that lays within easy reach of the resort.
But the wonders of the underwater seascape need not end at sunset - night diving provides a whole new perspective on these mysterious underwater ecosystems. Coral transforms before your eyes, as marine specimens of incredible luminosity ghost past - and those fish not brave enough to greet you in the day may just come to say hello at night.
Learn to dive - or take your skills further into the magic of some of the blue planet’s most serene waters - either will quench your thirst for adventure.
Honeymoon Paradise
You and your most-loved are at the beginning of a beautiful, new adventure - and there’s nowhere more perfect than the Maldives to step into the world as one.
Let the era-defining LUX* North Male Atoll be your divinely unique stage for a lifetime of memories, in one of the planet’s true natural paradises. The ultimate pampering experience begins in your penthouse as the LUX* ME Spa bequeaths opulent essential oils by Shirley Page, along with a treasure-chest of exquisite scrubs for a tantalisingly tender moment made for two.
As you fall deeper in tune together and the pristine marine environment that surrounds you, take the opportunity to make a lasting gesture of your love for each other - and the planet. Talk with our resident marine caretakers, and they’ll help you experience coral planting - an integral part of our environmental sustainability program.
It’s just one dream-tinged day in a celebration of memorable moments and, the morning after - as you linger over a delicious, personalised breakfast with the Indian Ocean kissing your feet - you’ll be forgiven for being uncertain if you’ve even woken.
