What An Amazing Place with Fantastic Staff, Every Day Was Magical...

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 2 May 2021
Where do you start...? We visited the island at the beginning of March this year, and from the minute we stepped off the boat, the island and it's staff just kept on giving! The food was great, the selection was never ending and the staff were just so friendly and always smiling (I suppose if you live somewhere as truly stunning as this you would always be smiling) nothing was ever too much trouble.

The water villa was extremely spacious and modern, always clean with some fantastic designs on the bed each night when we returned. The coral was literally at the bottom of our steps.

Every day brought a new adventure, we hired a Jet Ski and went snorkelling with the Turtles and a speedboat to snorkel with the Manta Rays, memories we will cherish for an eternity.

This beautiful island was big enough to keep you occupied and private enough never to be boring, the restaurants were great and we never struggled to find something to eat, even for people who stay for a fortnight or more, there was always something different to choose from...

We'd like to say a big thank you to Monica, her management team and fantastic staff for making our stay with you a special one, we'll see you again next month, this time we're coming for 3 weeks!
Date of stay: March 2021
Room Tip: Give the Vegetarian Restaurant a try, we loved it and I didn't think I would...

Excellent kids club and wonderful staff. Very caring and fully trustworthy. Excellent resort for families. Clean, hygienic, and very welcoming. Rooms are really nice. More diversity in healthy food for buffet would be great, for example grilled fish. Thank you!

First time we visited Maldives and we were really excited. Beautiful island and nature, great and friendly staff. We enjoyed massages, swimming in the pool and sea, snorkling, sunbathing, coctails, food, just total relax. Each type of villa has its own magic, either water villa or beach vila, we loved them both. If we could, we wouldn't leave at all. We want to thank you for unforgettable experience and wonderful times with you ❤️

It was nice to stay at OBLU.
Well organized transfer, quick check-in.
Then I arrived, the villa was ready for my stay.
Clean territory, good house reef.
SPA has a good therapist from Thai, Cabmodia, Sri Lanka.

Special thanks for Elena. She was so helpful, stayed in touch with me, and responded all my needs.

I'll definitely come again.

We decided to spend 6 nights at Oblu Select during our trip to Maldives and couldn’t be happier about the decision. This resort gathers the main features you need to have a great holidays in Maldives. Good amenities and services: the villa, restaurants, swimming pools, gym… The resort is quite new and everything is flawless.
We stayed in a water villa right over the reef with direct access to water. The villa was spacious and had a large and comfortable bed. Everything is kept very clean and they refill the minibar on a daily basis. The food is very good in all the restaurants and you can find new options in the buffet every day. There are two swimming pools with a good size and the bars offer a large list of beverages including coffee, non alcohol and alcohol drinks.
I would also highlight the gym which is well conditioned and clean. We also liked the dive center where you can book several excursions. We booked the turtle excursion and had the chance to see around 10-12 turtles. The dive team is nice and professional.
We spent an average of 4 hours daily snorkeling. The house reef is beautiful and full of life. We could see turtles, reef sharks, rays, morays and many fishes.
Last but not least, I would emphasize the superb service and attention provided by the whole resort team. All the staff looked after us all the time to make our stay as much comfortable as possible, specially Pablo, the Resort Manager, who was always willing to help and meet all the needs we could have.
