LUX South Ari Atoll Resort & Villas is a luxurious resort situated on the enchanting paradise island of Dhidhoofinolhu. The hotel offers a variety of experiences to cater to different preferences: for those seeking peace and seclusion, for families with children, and for diving and snorkeling enthusiasts. The spacious villas, designed in a traditional style, line the 4-kilometer-long sandy beach, one of the most extensive in the Maldives.

Guests of LUX South Ari Atoll can expect pleasant surprises, such as impromptu movie screenings on the beach and locally roasted coffee served at Cafe LUX. Each year, the resort expands its list of water activities, being the first to introduce flyboarding and hoverboarding to the Maldives.

The dive center organizes excursions to 50 stunning dive sites, offering the chance to encounter manta rays, parrotfish, butterflyfish, barracudas, green turtles, and whale sharks.

The resort also houses the Me Spa, a center that combines fitness, spa treatments, and yoga seminars under one roof.

Key features of the resort include:

- A 4-kilometer-long beach surrounding the island.
- The first "Vegan Friendly Hotel" in the Maldives, with vegetarian and vegan menus available in all restaurants.
