Six Senses Laamu Maldiverna Laamu Atoll

Six Senses Laamu’s 97 villas have been designed in harmony with the island’s natural beauty, using local and sustainably sourced materials. Alongside enjoying culinary delights crafted from produce grown in the island’s very own organic ‘Leaf Garden’, guests support the local community by dining on local fish caught and purchased through the Laamaseelu Masvariya (Exemplary Fisher) program. Additionally, 0.5% of the resort’s total revenue and 50% of drinking water sales are given to a sustainability fund which finances projects outside of the resort, such as safe drinking water, waste management and children’s education. All experiences, from wine tasting, SCUBA diving or becoming a Junior Marine Biologist, are embedded with Six Senses ‘responsible and caring’ philosophy. Six Senses Laamu’s Maldives Underwater Initiative (MUI) team of marine biologists lead the Maldivian tourism industry through meaningful marine conservation efforts based on research, education and community outreach. The team conducts thorough research of the local marine habitats and biodiversity, working towards the long-term goal of designating a network of Marine Protected Areas in Laamu. To date, MUI has recorded over 500 individual sea turtles, more than 130 individual manta rays and mapped the 100,000 m2 of seagrass surrounding the resort.
