death by ice cream

There are many compelling reasons to plan a vacation at Six Senses Laamu, a non-fussy, sand-between-your-toes, Virtuoso resort just 200 miles north of the equator in the Maldives. Gorgeous, clear sea water. Great snorkeling. A superb spa. Good food. It's even a good destination for surfers at the right time of the year when the waves are high.

But here's a reason you would not have guessed: free ice cream. There are 40 flavors of ice cream and sorbet at the Ice and Chocolate Studio, open daily from 12 noon to 10:30 p.m. You can have as much as you want, as often as you want, and you're encouraged to try all 40 flavors. Are you up to the challenge?

Death by ice cream, indeed!
