SIX & SIX Private Islands Maldives launches Six and Six Private Residences, a new residential concept designed to redefine luxury living in the Maldives through thoughtful design, cultural connection and a genuine sense of place.
The launch offers a rare opportunity to own an elegant over-water or beach front residence in one of the most coveted places on earth.
The vision to create six resorts, on six islands, in six years, the company is making a small number of villas available for private purchase on each of the islands.
The Residences are designed to resonate with a rarefied audience, appealing equally to astute investors and those seeking an exceptional island lifestyle. For investors, the opportunity is underpinned by the Maldives’ recent record of sustained tourism growth providing strong rental demand. For lifestyle owners, ownership unlocks a quietly privileged way of life — a refined retreat set within nature, where privacy, tranquillity and a sense of complete escape define the experience.

Yet while the Maldives is home to an abundance of world-class resorts, many follow familiar global formulas. SIX & SIX PRIVATE ISLANDS was conceived with a different ambition: to reinterpret barefoot luxury through a distinctly Maldivian lens, rather than replicate international resort templates. Architecture, experiences and daily life are shaped not by global trends, but by the rhythms, craftsmanship and cultural DNA of the islands themselves.
The CEO and co-founder of SIX & SIX is Laith Pharaon - the visionary behind Orca Holding — known for shaping hospitality icons like Six Senses and Soho House. Laith brought a community-first philosophy to SIX & SIX, placing Maldivian hospitality at the centre from day one.
He said: “The Maldives has long been a stage for luxury, but I felt there was space for something else. In recent years, it has been dominated by large luxury hotel brands and universal standards. The goal was to recapture what truly calls people here — the intimacy of island life, where time slows and the local world invites you in. We have extended this beyond hospitality to the creation of branded private residences for those seeking a true haven from modern life.
