Maldives, Indian Ocean

Star 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, the adult-only 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.

這次和先生入住 OBLU Lobigili,真的讓我們捨不得離開,完全是超過期待的五星體驗! 從抵達開始,中文管家Belle親切熱情帶我們認識島上設施,這裡的服務人員服務細心又貼心,讓人有賓至如歸的感受!島嶼不大,但環境維護得非常漂亮,沙灘潔白、海水清澈,每天都像住在明信片裡一樣。 水上屋舒適又乾淨,景色更是美得讓人每天起床都覺得很幸福。無論是在陽台放空、看海、浮潛,還是欣賞日落,每一刻都非常浪漫,很適合情侶或蜜月旅行。 餐點也是一大亮點,每一餐都吃得很滿足,選擇豐富又精緻。我們也很喜歡島上的酒吧和調酒,邊喝邊看夕陽真的太享受了! 最讓我們印象深刻的是整座島的氛圍,非常安靜、放鬆,不會有擁擠的感覺,讓人可以真正放慢步調,好好享受兩個人的時光。 這趟旅行留下了好多美好的回憶,我和先生都一致認為 OBLU Lobigili 是最棒的度假島之一! 如果未來有機會再來馬爾地夫,我們一定還會選擇回來,也會推薦給正在規劃蜜月或紀念日的朋友。 Thank you, OBLU Lobigili, for giving us such an unforgettable honeymoon. ❤️ Read less

Our stay at this adults-only resort was truly wonderful. The island was incredibly calm, peaceful, and relaxing, offering exactly the privacy we were looking for. We stayed in both the Beach Villa and the Water Villa, and each had its own unique charm. The rooms were spacious, beautifully designed, and exceptionally comfortable. The ambience throughout the resort was perfect, creating a luxurious yet tranquil atmosphere. The service was excellent, and every staff member was warm, friendly, and attentive, making our stay even more memorable. The food was delicious with a great variety, and all the facilities were well maintained and exceeded our expectations. A very special thank you to our island hostess, Alya, for her exceptional hospitality and care throughout our stay. She was always kind, responsive, and went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. She truly made our experience even more special. The only small drawback we noticed was in the Water Villa: the window of the neighboring villa overlooked our private pool and part of our deck facing the water, which slightly affected the sense of complete privacy. Overall, it was an unforgettable experience, and we would highly recommend this resort to couples looking for a peaceful, luxurious, and relaxing getaway in the Maldives. Read less

A special thank you to our island host Alya, who made sure every detail of our stay was taken care of and was always available with a warm smile and helpful recommendations. We’d also like to recognize Elin, Inora, Rada and Carol at the restaurant Ylang for their exceptional hospitality. They made every meal a wonderful experience with their attentiveness, friendliness, and genuine care. Their service made us feel welcomed and valued every day. The atmosphere at OBLU Lobigili is absolutely stunning—peaceful, romantic, and beautifully maintained. Whether relaxing on the beach, enjoying the crystal clear water, or dining with breathtaking ocean views, every moment felt like paradise.
