Whether it’s a daytime escape or an unforgettable evening under the stars, Lonubo redefines what it means to relax in paradise.”

Choose from the following carefully curated experiences:

‘Your’ Lonubo + Castaway Picnic

Choose from an extensive menu of freshly prepared dishes and savour them with your feet in the sand, the ocean lapping at the shore and the Maldivian sun overhead. Swim, snorkel, or simply relax as the gentle waves create the soundtrack to your ultimate castaway fantasy.

Starlit BBQ Beach Dinner

Start your evening with Champagne at sunset, then indulge in a sumptuous meal featuring an array of freshly grilled delicacies. Optional enhancements like a beachfront bonfire, gourmet canapés, or a private movie screening make for a perfect romantic night. A private boat will whisk you away at 5.30pm to begin your sunset island adventure, with dinner served from 7pm.
