Six Senses Laamu
Maldives
Barefoot luxury meets marine wonder in the remote Laamu Atoll
Tucked away in the far-flung Laamu Atoll, this is one of the Maldives’ last untouched corners – and Six Senses Laamu makes the most of its location. The only resort in the atoll, it offers a rare blend of castaway seclusion, considered luxury and deep sustainability. You arrive by domestic flight and speedboat, stepping straight into a world of turquoise lagoons, thatched villas and gentle, easy barefoot living.
Villas are either overwater or hidden among the palms on land, all with open-air bathrooms, private decks and that unmistakable Six Senses design: natural materials, thoughtful touches and views for days. Some have private pools, most have netted hammocks suspended above the sea – all are steps from the island’s calm, clear waters.

With a goal to visit every US state and a passion for ancient civilisations, Dallal designs thoughtful, immersive trips that feel personal at every step. Her favourite areas of expertise are North America, North Africa and the Maldives.
Dining is a pleasure, from organic garden-to-table produce and home-made ice cream to feet-in-the-sand dinners under the stars.
The resort is also a serious draw for divers and snorkelers: the house reef is home to manta rays, turtles and technicolour coral, and the on-site marine biologists run research projects you can join.
