OBLU SELECT Lobigili

Matthew Denehy

Simply can not fault this destination. Rooms are spectacular and are serviced twice daily. I love the turn down service at night. Food and drinks are fabulous, great variety, mini bar is free, all the food is free, the main bar is free. There were a few extra dinners like the lobster night which we paid extra for but it was so worth it. The staff are just beautiful. Rada, & Nisha in the main restaurant was funny, engaging, and just great. Sayan in the main bar is outstanding. Making specific cocktails for us and just being a lovely human. The underwater restaurant was a great night out, our little handling fishing tour/sunset was fun and snorkelling tour was great. We simply can not fault this resort, location, people, food and just RELAXING for 7 days.

Such a beautiful island! Very peaceful and relaxing. Our service was incredible and our hostess, Alpi, was very helpful. We stayed in the sun nest water pool villa, which was beautiful and had such an amazing view of the ocean. We went during rainy season, so we didn’t get a ton of use out of the pool and wish it could have been heated during the windy days for more use. Most of the food menus were good and had plenty of options. The main bar was very laidback, although did not have many activities for later at night so we went to the other sister island to use our inclusive plan for the pool, bar and more upbeat nighttime activities a few days. The island was small, but this was helpful when walking between villas and dining and we were offered buggy rides often! We did a few included activities for our honeymoon, including the amazing spa treatments and snorkeling trip (even great to do off our balcony!).They had great touches such as romantic dinners, floating breakfasts and decorating the bed during turn down services. Overall, would very much recommend this island and stay for a romantic and relaxing trip. It was perfect for our honeymoon.

We spent 5 days in an overwater villa for our honeymoon and had the most amazing time. Both my husband and I were so impressed by OBLU Lobigili and it was even better than we had imagined. Our room was beautiful, spacious, and the outdoor bathroom/shower/hammock was our favorite part. You feel so in touch with nature and so relaxed here, an experience we haven’t felt elsewhere. The housekeeping staff was great and our room was cleaned twice a day and kept spotless. The island is beautiful with so much to do, from various beaches to snorkel, a lovely pool, plenty of spaces to lay out/lounge during the day either poolside or more privately on the beach, water sports, recreational activities, and a nice sized gym with fitness activities throughout the day. The app makes it easy to see the schedule and know what is going on, hours, as well as see menus of the various restaurants/bars. It is connected to the other side of the resort which is more family friendly which you have access to as well (although Lobigili is just for guests staying at Lobigili which is really nice). This gave some variety and we enjoyed being able to walk over there and just explore a new place during the day and gives some variety to the trip as well. The most impressive part was the food! I am a pretty tough food critic and usually never stay at all inclusive because I love having GOOD food on vacation and usually all inclusive aren’t that great. This place was AMAZING and we still talk about how we miss various dishes we had or all the options we had for each meal. You will not go hungry and the food is all freshly cooked, so many options for all different types of cuisines, and we never felt bored of the options over the 6 days we were there. One of the most unique aspects was the island host you get for your stay. Ours was Maryem and she was absolutely amazing! She helped schedule our massage, dinner, and excursions and checked in on us each day to see how things were, remind us of our daily itinerary, and share the resorts itinerary of events for the day. She was so kind and really made our trip memorable. And that goes for the rest of the staff too, everyone was so kind and always greeted you with a smile and really took the time to get to know you. I highly recommend this resort if coming to the Maldives, we can’t wait to go back!
