The refurbished resort will feature 193 pavilions and villas when it reopens on September 1.

These will include 49 adults-only villas with private pools on the eastern side of the island, while to the west there will be 38 water villas, a two-bedroom Lux villa and 105 beach villas.

All villas have been redesigned including the property’s water villas, while new restaurants and bars have also been added, including the Beach Rouge lounge bar, which already features at the Lux Belle Mare property in Mauritius.

The resort will have a total of seven restaurants, including the Asian-themed East Market, and five bars.

Lux will also launch a range of Reasons to Go Lux activities at the resort, including photography workshops and a junk art studio.

The company is planning a launch party to mark the reopening in September.

Lux is undergoing a major period of expansion including a new property in the Maldives - Lux North Male Atoll which is due to open in 2017 with 60 private villas.

The company is also planning to open new properties in the United Arab Emirates, Reunion, Turkey and China.
