SIX & SIX PRIVATE ISLANDS, a private island resort developer co-founded by CEO Laith Pharaon, has launched the first phase of its ambitious plan to establish six luxury resorts in the Maldives. The company aims to revolutionize the hospitality industry by creating a unique experience centered on tailored service, artistic design, and a cosmopolitan lifestyle.

First Two Resorts to Open in 2025 and 2026

The first two resorts, located in South Malé Atoll, will offer distinct experiences while maintaining a shared philosophy of prioritizing personalized experiences tailored to individual guest preferences. Guests can expect an elevated level of service, catered to their unique needs and interests.
