The hotel

They dare to be different on Sangeli island, on Malé Atoll’s north-west perimeter — where creative minds have concocted a dazzling design hotel that’s a far cry from the simplistic rustic retreats of ‘old Maldives’. Edgy features make it feel fabulously fresh and innovative, but there’s still a nod to authentic Maldives in your super-spacious beach-skimming villa. The main Sangeli Island and the smaller adults-only island, One Banyan, are linked by a string of overwater villas — you can amble between the spa, gym, dining venues, kids’ club, and recreation and water sports hubs at your leisure. And, the premium all-inclusive Serenity Plan provides complimentary treats along the way, including a daily mini-bar refill, two fine dining experiences a week, unlimited drinks, and selected excursions, activities and water sports.

This place is beyond outstanding. We spent here 12 days in February and we wish we could stay longer. The hotel is very clean, tidy and modern. Water Villa is amazing, I couldn't imagine a better accomodation for full relax. The stuff is very professional and caring. Managers approach each guest individually and take care of everything :) Food was also great, there are 3 restaurants that suprise with every dinner. You should try Simply Veg - I would never believe that vegan food can be so good and I'm not a vegetarian. But finally, our favourite spot was the adults only island - the perferct place to chill and enjoy the beauty of the Maldives in total peace. Long story short: If you are looking for luxurious summer experience in a little Paradise, choose Oblu Select! Read less
