LUX* ME SPA
The LUX* ME Spa, walking you through the crystal-clear blue lagoon and lavish tropical gardens, is a sacred space where you will begin your journey to a healthier, happier you. Our LUX* ME concept originates from a desire to bring wellness into your everyday rituals. Spa here provides much more than just massage and pampering, offering a holistic integrated approach to all our treatments. The therapists will personalise your selected treatment using our exclusive range of LUX* ME body and facial products.
EATING WELL
The only diet we adhere to is the self-love diet, which involves a daily dose of sunshine, multiple dips in the sea, endless hours at our LUX* ME spa, and eating mindfully. You deserve to feel good. Show your body some love by nourishing it with real, whole foods that will make you feel amazing, inside and out. Whether your holiday is your time to detox, press the reset button or amp up your fitness routine, our team of wellness experts will help you reach your goal. You’ll love our Keen on Green concept which is a delicious selection of vegan, vegetarian and raw dishes in our various restaurants. Keep an eye out for the dishes labelled in green.
FROM FLOATING YOGA TO MEDITATION
Overwhelmed by the craziness and fast pace of our lives? It can certainly take a toll on our mental wellbeing. And there’s nothing like a holiday to practice being mindful. While you’re here, we’ll help you incorporate it into your daily life. First things first: you’re in the Maldives. Go for swims and beach walks. Sign up for sunrise yoga. Do some breathwork. Challenge yourself to floating yoga. Eat well with Keen on Green. Now is the time.
COCONUT EVERYTHING
Our signature massage is called “Araamu Dhathuru”. It’s a must if you want to feel rejuvenated. The therapist will target your pressure point using raw baby coconut and massage you with warm coconut oil - the best skin food. Wrap it up with a fresh ‘kurumba’, coconut water, which is high in electrolytes.
WELLNESS RETREATS
We offer individual consultations and tailored programmes to help you jump-start your wellness routine. Our wellness packages are a mix of expert advice, relaxing spa treatments, mindfulness, a personal training session, a facial, and an oil concentrate. Depending on your needs and goals, our team will help you pick out the best one for you: Relax, Reboot, Rejuvenate, Re-energise.

How about a drop-down projector for a romantic movie night or a floating sunrise breakfast?
PRIVATE DINING EXPERIENCES
A candlelit dinner at West Point beach. A sunset aperitivo onboard a private catamaran. A picnic on a sandbank in the middle of the sea. A boho tent setup on the beach. This is private dining in true Maldivian style. We get creative when it comes to food. Our chefs will happily craft a personalised menu for you. As for the blazing orangey-pink sunset? That’s the backdrop.
BRIDAL STUDIO
It’s a big day! Head to our bridal studio where our LUX* ME Spa beauticians will help you feel and look your best.

A ZERO-WASTE WEDDING
Say I do to your lover and to caring for the planet. And yes, being eco-friendly is chic. We designed three weddings that weave care into their fabric: Wanderlust, Boho, and Tropical Paradise. By choosing one of these weddings, you will fund the education of a child in a local shelter (you may visit the shelter while you are here). Show your love for the sea by adopting a coral and helping restore the reef. The first year of being married, we will share updates on the academic achievements of the child you sponsored and the evolution of your adopted corals. Doing good feels good.
