Savour a slice of All Inclusive paradise in the Maldives. Wake up to glistening oceans and stroll across powder-soft sands. Then tuck into a tasty breakfast. Unwind on a euphoric island and let the drinks flow freely as you simply relax. Otherwise, ride the waves with water sports and enjoy the sea breeze before dining upon a tantalising lunch. As the day draws to a close, catch a vivid sunset while you dine in a tropical utopia.

For the family: Lux* South Ari Atoll

Fancy taking a Maldives family holiday? These islands aren’t just for romantics, and the Lux* South Ari Atoll Resort shows everyone how to have a good time with an All Inclusive stay.

The lowdown… Whether your whole family likes lounging or jumping into activities, you’ll discover enough variety to suit everyone on this island haven. Splash in the shallow turquoise lagoons and encounter colourful marine life on a snorkelling adventure. Take to water sport thrills on a complimentary kayak or pedal boat, then skim the waters as you kite-surf or water-ski. If you stay on land, tuck your toes into the sand as you kick off a game of beach volleyball, and dive into one of two infinity pools when you need to cool off.

When you’re ready for down time, take the children to the Kids’ and Teens’ clubs for bountiful fun with banana boat rides, scuba diving lessons and time on the tennis courts within the daily LUX* programme. Meanwhile, you can visit the tropical spa and satiate your senses before you reunite for an epic cinema experience on the beach. Worked up an appetite, yet? The choice of eight mouth-watering restaurants will put a smile on faces of even the fussiest eaters. With a selection of Japanese, Italian, buffets and leisurely lunch bars, let your taste buds tingle with flavours.

Insider’s tip: If you’re heading out for a day of island excursions or a boat trip, you can request a picnic for you and the family to enjoy wherever you set sail.
