"Excellence "

"Very comfortable and pretty resort, in keeping with the island surroundings. Food was good and the staff were lovely and very flexible with my requests. Highly recommend "

"All inclusive. All generously and happily served. Even the wine was good. And of course Maldives scenery… like paradise "

"Perfect place to stay if you have a late flight out of Ventana. As most seaplanes have no air conditioning, you will arrive in Male sweaty and icky. If you have a 4-7 hour window from seaplane arrival and check in, spend the less than $100 to get a shuttle to/from the hotel to chill, shower and change into airplane outfit. Makes the trip back less of a hassle."

"This was my first visit to the Maldives, and staying at OBLU XPERIENCE Ailafushi was nothing short of magical. From the moment we touched down at the airport to the bittersweet moment we had to leave, everything far exceeded my expectations. We had a beach villa on the sunset side of the island, the sunsets were absolutely breathtaking. The villa was spotless and fully stocked daily with bottled water, soft drinks, and beer. I appreciated the little details, like beach towels waiting in the room (also available by the pool), and the water feature by the entrance to rinse off sandy feet before stepping inside, simple but so considerate. And the food – wow! Every meal was a culinary delight. The variety was outstanding, with everything from Oriental and Asian dishes to Indian, European, vegetarian, pizza/pasta stations, and live cooking counters. The chilled room for salads and desserts was a lovely touch, ensuring everything was fresh and appealing. The Indian cuisine, in particular, blew me away, the flavours, the range, and the authenticity were beyond amazing. I was in absolute heaven. A special shout-out to Louis, who made us fresh chai every day with a warm smile. Highlights of the trip was trying scuba diving for the first time. I was nervous, but the dive team was absolutely fantastic. Every single member of staff at the resort was friendly, welcoming, and went above and beyond to make our stay special. The whole experience was seamless, luxurious, and deeply relaxing."
