Celebrate festive season at LUX* North Male Atoll Resort & Villas, where every corner of the island will be lit up with festive fairy lights, and the iconic rooftops of the majestic penthouse villas will be decorated with surprises on Christmas Day.

The festive programme, filled with sparkling celebrations, includes castaway sand bank picnic excursions, lavish gala dinners and unique workshops to add that extra layer of fun to your stay.

Don’t miss the Peruvian-Japanese signature restaurant INTI, the juicy premium steaks at the pop-up steakhouse at the resort’s beach club Beach Rouge or Middle Eastern theme nights at the international restaurant Glow.

To top up the celebrations, a grand masquerade ball with a special performance by Artsvik, famous for her performance at Eurovision Song Contest 2017, will ring in the new year.

LUX* North Male Atoll is an intimate resort offering a visual feast of nautical forms and tones. It is a next-level resort that sweeps away the thatched-roofed Maldivian footprint of old with a dazzling paradise of penthouse villas and spectacularly designed spaces to play, relax and retreat.

Harnessing the fresh vision of Singapore design house Miaja, each of the 67 double storey residences and rooftop features a private pool blending superyacht panache with a vibrant South Beach pulse with four elegant eateries and two bars. For the first time in the Maldives, each residence is crowned with a magnificent private rooftop relaxing area.

There’s a wealth of ways to relax or raise your game, and the invitations to adventure are endless. Guests will find two swimming pools, a translucent overwater LUX* ME Spa, world-renowned diving, high adrenaline water sports, private yacht voyages, tennis and beach volleyball courts.

A uniquely exclusive paradise retreat — where breezy island living meets jet-set chic — LUX* North Male Atoll is luxury beyond boundaries.

Festive Offer: Book your stay by December 31 and receive 15 per cent reduced rate applicable on one-bedroom Water Villas and one-bedroom Deluxe Water Villas. To learn more, please visit www.luxnorthmaleatoll.com or contact the reservations team at stay@luxnorthmale.com or +960 668 2600.
