Amazing in all respects! The island is paradise. The service is outstanding. The dining quality is excellent (although they do need to improve on the Asian cuisine). Dedication to sustainability is outstanding. Complimentary home made ice creams (with 48 flavours) on offer all day. We loved our time here. Extremely special.

Excellent villas and public areas. Friendly and very helpful staff. Attention to small details. We felt very pampered... The highlight was the snorkeling - amazing number of fish on the house reef right in front of the restaurants. Don’t miss this!

From start to finish it was fantastic, you're allocated a guest experience manager on arrival who will support you with activities and restaurant bookings. 10/15 minutes from amazing reefs for snorkelling and the food is fantastic. We wanted to stay longer, but didn't like the idea of multiple PCR tests. We're already thinking about when we can go back.

All the team at six sense laamu are amazing and super friendly. The over water rooms are beautiful. The food is wonderful. We especially loved the beach side lobster dinner and the Asian market dinner on the beach. The surf team is extremely helpful navigating the waves and the spa/massage team were incredible as well.

Great experience from start to finish! Get a laamu pool overwater bungalow- its worth every penny! Our GEM Afrah was incredible and really made the trip extra special. All the staff for the most part were great and all go above and beyond to help you, and make sure you have everything you need. Only 2 cons I can think of: The WiFi isn’t great and would have liked a few more activity options that weren’t additional fees but other than that the trip was an A all around.

Gorgeous property!
The resort itself was gorgeous with main public facilities built over the water. The villa was tastefully designed with minimalist and built using eco friendly materials. Service was great and not overwhelming. The best thing is they have an ice cream parlour offer 42 types of ice cream all day. Hit the front desk and ask for their daily activities, such as watching a cinema in the night set on the beach. I would definitely go back again!

The diving was exceptional, both in terms of the dive sites (probably the best in Asia if not the world) and the dive staff (notably Danny, Steven and Nicole, all of whom were exceptionally knowledgeable, helpful and friendly). We stayed in two overwater villas, which were wonderful, very nice inside and could snorkel directly from the outdoor tanning area. Our Guest Experience Manager (Shifu) was very friendly, helpful and conscientious. Overall we had a great time!

Too beautiful for words
One of the most beautiful spots on earth. From the noise of the waves lapping around underneath the villa to the constant wildlife swimming up to our deck and the most stunning sunsets I think this place is as close to paradise as it gets. We have stayed in 5 six senses resorts but this one is head and shoulders above the others. Only word of warning is the prices while you are at the resort are very high, that said you are in the middle of the ocean!

All around wonderful experience!
When you arrive they give you a shoe bag to store your shoes and you can walk around barefoot for the rest of the time you are there. It pretty well sets the tone for a relaxing barefoot kick your shoes off feeling. They also assign you a Guest Experience Manager I think that’s what they called them but they refer to them as gems pronounced guem but we had Alex and she was a real gem with a soft g. We met many people who returned frequently which is really not surprising! The food is great! Highly recommend! I am a diver and the diving staff is top notch. There are manta rays I did not get to see conditions to choppy the day I went out. The visibility on the days I was there was not as good as when I have been more north in the Maldives but I have no idea if it was just temporary currents or normal for the area. We took a Dolphin cruise saw many dolphins had Ricky as our guide and it was a great family time!

This is one of the larger resorts in the Maldives but is still very intimate. There are a total of 95-100 villas on the island & we never felt the slightest bit crowded. The food & staff were outstanding but the prices are high. We had breakfast included which was wonderful but for lunch/dinner expect to pay $50 per person...not including drinks. Cocktails averaged close to $20/each after they add tax & gratuity. All that being said, the food was outstanding & one bartender in particular would create cocktails specially for me. His name was Linu. It was one of the most relaxing vacations my wife or i have ever experienced.

Dear Ganesh,Thank you for your feedback regarding your stay at Six Senses Laamu. I understand your concern, however we produce all of our own water onsite by desalination in order to avoid waste from importing plastic water bottles and the charge covers the costs of production. In addition, 50% of our water sales go into a Water Charity, which provides clean drinking water to local communities. For domestic flight, Please allow us to note that while we keep our rate in standard for all properties. We will all take your valuable comments into consideration in order for us to further improve our offers. Thank you.

Best hotel in Maldives
It has been truly the most wonderful hotel I have ever stayed in. I have been in Maldives 4 times already to different resorts like Per Aquum Niyama, Huvafen Fushi, One and Only, Anantara, believe me, no one compares with Six Senses. Is better even than Six Senses Seychelles, where I have been last year. All the staff is extremely friendly and polite, smiling all day long and trying to make your stay just perfect. Our GEM ShifuNo it just does what does it go up was the best GEM we ever had, she took care of all our needs. One of the things that makes this hotel so special are: the care for the environment, the location, best snorkeling house reef, a lot of interesting complimentary activities such as Star gazing or sunset yoga with several doctors around the world and the concept of barefoot all around the resort. We just loved every thing about this places and we will never try different hotel in Maldives.

This is the place to just "be" with your loved one(s) and the beauty of nature around you. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful at every turn and our GEM, Sato, took care of our every need. And if endless blue ocean and sky aren't relaxing enough, the spa is a retreat for the soul. We stayed in an over the water villa with an outdoor shower and total privacy.

Bugs at the room, Flies at restaurant
We went to Six Senses Laamu for our honeymoon. Before the trip, we were very excited and looking forward to it as Six senses laamu is a 6 stars luxury brand and online reviews are pretty good. We chose a water villa and paid a few thousand for 4 nights. However, we were very disappointed after the stay and don't recommend it to you if you don't like bugs and flies. At the first night, I woke up at the midnight and felt very itch over the body. I got a few bites on my legs, arms, bally and back, and found a big bug just under my pillow!!! I got pretty scared. Can you image a big bug on your bed, at the 5/6 stars hotel room?! The management team came by next morning and explained that it was just a dead bee. This made me feel even more uncomfortable: 1) I didn't know where the bugs were and where they hide. I suspected it was bedbugs bite after I compared to online picture. 2) Assume it was a dead bee, why the hotel didn't clean it out before we moved in? We also found some small bugs the next evening. I had to wear cloth to sleep for the rest stay, and my husband got the different bites at lower belly and back as well. (See picture) Secondly, the restaurants at the main area had a lot of flies. Sometimes flies even stopped at your food. It was so disgusting when you wanted to have a romantic meal. Also, the hotel booked the air ticket back to MALE for us and made us missed our international flights. We paid additional $900 to re-schedule our flights!!

Beautiful Maldives resort
We found a great deal on this resort through Expedia and jumped at the opportunity. From LA it was a very long trip to get down there but ultimately it was well worth it when we arrived at this stunning resort. We spent 10 days at Six senses and loved every minute of it. The food was first class, the service was wonderful and very personal and everything was clean and very well maintained. The kids club was small but the staff was great and very loving towards our 7 yr old daughter. The location of this resort was amazing and our over water bungalow was spacious and very well appointed. I would highly recommend this resort!

Absolutely worth the hype. INCREDIBLE.
My husband and I spent four nights at the Six Senses after a week in India, and we had the most amazing stay. Our friends had recommended this hotel after their honeymoon earlier this year and it exceeded our expectations. As first timers to the Maldives we were not ready to commit to a 7-10 night trip but if I could do it over, we would have stayed there much longer! From the moment we arrived at Male Airport we were blown away by the service. Our incoming flight from India was delayed so we landed in a state of panic as there was only 30 minutes until our flight for Kadhdhoo departed. Once through customs we started looking around to see where domestic departures would be when we spotted a young man with a Six Senses sign. He was fully up to speed and ready for us so once we headed his way he grabbed my luggage and we started racing through the airport as he made a phone call. A few minutes later we arrived at the Closed Kadhdhoo check-in counter which apparently he had already notified. We gave them our passports, they quickly added bag tags and we were in line for security within minutes. We received the highest level of service from our first point of contact at Six Senses all the way through our return to Male Airport at the conclusion of our stay. There were so many things to love about the Six Senses but the big standouts for me were the water villa/outdoor shower, no shoes, breakfast buffet and the house reef where we saw sharks and an octopus and turtles. THANK YOU!

Stayed here for our honeymoon and everything was top notch. The villa was spacious, comfortable, clean and fully stocked with everything we needed. Aside from the breathtaking location, the highlights of the hotel were the food (organic garden onsite where produce is grown), amenities (tons of water sports equipment at your disposal, amazing spa, gym, yoga classes, etc.) and service (friendly staff genuinely concerned with your enjoyment).

Heaven on Earth
Our honeymoon at Six Senses was dreamy! The staff was kind, the resort is gorgeous and they have thought of everything! Our villa was incredible, as was the entire resort! We slept so well there in a comfortable bed, loved showering outside (privately) over the water, adored the cute sinks that look like open suitcases. We love it is an eco-resort and pro-environment. They have bottles in each villa, the spa and restrooms they refill with bath and body products for you (no wasting plastic bottles). They also have a fully stocked bar in your villa with glasses, plates, silverware, an electric tea kettle, coffee maker and refrigerator. We loved biking around on our personalized bicycles, especially at night when the jungle was lit up with lights, and every meal was delicious. We had a particularly awesome dinner at Leaf (in the organic garden on the island). The house reef is great for snorkeling, but it's even better if you can take a day trip. We visited a local island, snorkeled in the open ocean (with rays and turtles!) and went to an incredible, amazing uninhabited island. My husband went diving, and we snorkeled on a day trip and also on the sand bank. I didn't know the ocean could be so many shades of blue, and have never seen such beautiful amazing coral and so many different fish. Just when you can't think it can't get any more beautiful, you go snorkeling and it is even more incredible. Every detail at the hotel is perfection: heaven on earth!

Superb
The best resort I have ever been despite its cost. Our ocean view villa was fabulous with the best view of the ocean. The GEM system is interesting as you make all your plans and booking with only one point of contact in the hotel. Breakfast is fantastic with great variety to choose from. All restaurants are excellent! food is fresh and organic! Snorkeling and kayaking were our favorite activities. The staff is very friendly and helpful! If we ever go back to Maldives we will definitely choose Six Sense again.

Paradise found
This is truly a wonderful location. Resort is only a few years old. Rooms are stunning. As we were on the jetty farthest front the main facilities, we rode everywhere on the bikes provided. The food was very good but reasonably expensive. Most activities are chargeable as well. To enjoy fully, you should prepare your budget to accommodate.

A true escape!
While the location is further than some of the other resorts, the value for an over water villa, amenities and overall experience make this resort worth the extra speed boat ride. The staff is attentive and anticipates your needs which is a consistent theme thoughtful the property. It's all about the details and this place does laid back luxury superbly! Can't wait to come back and bring a group as well!

Perfect for some good ol' R&R
Most relaxing and beautiful trip location I've ever been. Perfect for couples. The villa features many lounging options (6 in total, counting outdoors only). 2nd floor terrace provides great views. Dining options were limited but we especially enjoyed the Chill Bar (best bang for your buck)

Stunning hotel in the most amazing location
The only thing i would say is they need to make more effort for honeymoon couples, not much effort is really made, felt just like a normal holiday.
