Samokatus Hotels

An upscale family-friendly resort just a 15-minute speedboat ride from Malé, featuring lush tropical gardens and superb dining options. While it offers excellent convenience, gorgeous Banyan trees, and a top-notch Kids Club, the proximity to the capital means audible plane noise and visible city high-rises from the main beach.

Six Senses Laamu is an eco-luxury sanctuary located in the untouched Laamu Atoll, famous for its signature 'barefoot luxury' concept and commitment to marine preservation. Featuring breathtaking overwater villas, a vibrant house reef teeming with wildlife, and exceptional service from personal Guest Experience Managers, it offers a truly unforgettable island escape.

Opened in mid-2024, Sofitel Shanghai North Bund blends modern French elegance with artful Chinese design in the Hongkou District. Guests love the spacious, photogenic rooms and the exceptional concierge service, though its location is somewhat removed from the main tourist hubs. Key amenities like the executive lounge are currently offline, making it best for travelers who prioritize design over club perks.
