OBLU SELECT Lobigili

Maldives, Indian Ocean

Virgin rating

The hotel

In the Maldivian language of Dhivehi, ‘Lobi’ means love and ‘Gili’ means island, so therefore Lobigili is, in essence, the island of love. If you’re looking for a romantic trip for two, this is it. Set in an idyllic location with white sandy beaches and sparkling waters, OBLU SELECT Lobigili offers some experiences to make this a trip you will never forget. The largest underwater restaurant in the Maldives, Only BLU offers modern gourmet cuisine with a front row seat to the coral reef – and it’s included in the excellent Lobi Plan. This indulgent plan also includes a complimentary sunset fishing trip and a guided snorkelling trip, so you’ll get to see the best of the island and it’s surroundings after that relax with the included spa treatments. Both the beachfront and over water suites have a modern feel with semi open-air bathrooms and walk-in wardrobes, why not upgrade to the water pool villa for that added luxury of a private infinity pool overlooking the lagoon.

Satisfaction will vary depending on which resort you go to in Maldives, one of the most popular honeymoon destinations in Korea. There are many criteria for choosing a resort, but the kindness of the staff as well as the underwater environment from the airport is the best here in Oblu Robigili. However, the condition of the refrigerator is a little disappointing. I hope the temperature can be adjusted so that I can provide a colder drink. Also, the restaurant where delicious food is served and the underwater restaurant will be an unforgettable memory. I won't forget the kind Butler Maryam, either. Read less

Me and my wife went there for honeymoon. It was better than we expected and I wish I could clock back in time. The island only allows adults guests making it less crowded and quiet. F&B was great and staffs were very attentive. My hostess Patrice was super nice and my housekeeper Koti was super kind too :)

It is a place with a beautiful sea, the best facilities, and the best staff. In particular, it was so nice that the staff solved it quickly whenever there was a request. Thank you to all the employees for helping us have such a good trip. In particular, I would like to thank RINKI.
