The 97 villas at Six Senses Laamu are strung out on wooden piers from the island, or nestled amongst the swaying palms along the shoreline, all of them offering a sense of privacy and seclusion, with amazing views of the ocean. Each villa has an upper deck on which you can enjoy private meals whilst gazing out at the panoramic view. The villas are all innovatively styled and crafted from responsible materials. There is a wide range of different types of villa, some over the water, some on the beach, some with private pools, others with two bedrooms.
As well as being able to enjoy meals on your villas upper deck, the island is also home to several different restaurants, all with a unique style and vibe. Leaf sits high above the organic garden, with several smaller tables and a large communal Chili Table. Zen and Longitude are both over the water restaurants, Zen offering a modern twist on a traditional Kaiseki menu, with some delicious fresh sushi and sashimi, and Longtitude is where each day begins with a plentiful breakfast choice and in the evenings an a la carte menu offering a range of different cuisines. For a more casual all day dining alternative there is Sip Sip, offering poolside dining by a dramatic sunken bar. The over the water Chill Lounge and Bar has several different levels to relax on and is a fabulous place to enjoy evening cocktails whilst watching the sun go down, and finally for those with a sweet tooth there is the Ice and Chocolate Studio, an al fresco ice cream parlous with countless flavours and a chocolate room. Should you manage to exhaust all these different options then there is also the option of a private picnic on a desert island or a barbecue dinner on the sandbank.
Six Senses Laamu is a family friendly resort, with the two bedroom villas providing ideal accommodation for parents with children. There is a kids club on the island called The Den and babysitting is on offer as well.
The island offers a wide range of activities for everyone and keen surfers will enjoy the Ying Yang, the most famous wave in the atoll which breaks just offshore. Island hopping to neighboring local islands is also an option, and a visit to the nearby Hithadoo island will provide an insight into the Maldivian way of life.
