    Your videos helped me decide for LUX* South Ari Atoll.I am surprising my husby with a trip for his birthday in April 2025. It is still some time to go but I already booked 2 different types of rooms: 3 nights in a Beach Villa and 4 nights in a Romantic Over Water Villa with pool (just like the one you guys stayed at). And because I booked in advance, I can also save some money till the trip, LUX* charges a 30% deposit and the balance can be paid till 30 days prior to your arrival. Yes, The Maldives are expensive if you want to experience the whole Over Water+All Inclusive + Romantic Candle Light Dinner at the Beach thing. But I am sure it will be every penny worth it! And for birthday celebrations, they also offer complementary cake and you can CHOOSE what cake you want! Just say it and they will make it happen ❤

    Correct, however there are some promotional nights where they might have specialty dinning which can be an up charge. Of course they are always trying to get more out of you. But for the most part you’d be all set with the all inclusive package

    Over water villas are usually away from beach villas over the water in other words you’d have to walk over the water via the jetty to get to you overwater villa. Yes you have access to the entire private island except the staff area. Hope this answered your question

    Hi! Never get the price from resorts 🤣🤣🤣 we took the seaplane one way but if you want to save, you need to take a public speedboat from the airport to the local island Dhiguarh i think its about $60usd pp one way and then hire a private speedboat from Dhiguarh to Lux. You can use our trusted guy there Halym. If you have IG please reach out to us there because its easier to message
