Great resort.

Really great resort.The service was excellent, as was the overall cleanliness. We stayed in a beach villa which was absolutely perfect. If you wanted to be on your own area of the beach, relaxed and quiet then this was perfect. The main beach/pool area offered a livelier atmosphere. Both The Copper Pot and the Only Blu underwater restaurant were outstanding and worth the extra expense. Personally we would have liked a little more variety with the evening entertainment as it was the same house band that played throughout. Perhaps in peak season this is more varied.

Great value, all inclusive Maldives holiday Positives: Staff were all friendly and polite Food in buffet was delicious Resort is well kept Negatives: The is the 4th resort in the Maldives that we’ve been to and beaches are the worst by long way. The cocktails were all pre-made and sickly sweet. Fresh cocktails, extra money. Entertainment and music round the pool was very loud. As there was only one bar/ pool there is no way of escaping. It would be much better if there was a quiet beach bar.

I would recommend this island to everyone. Child friendly and amazing staff everywhere. Was easy to get around by walking or by buggy- which was always available. The pool area was very child friendly. They had a childrens club as well. Loved the food at the restaurant. Such variety. The vibe of the island was amazing, relaxed.

The food at the restaurant was really tasty and fresh, the water villa was excellent . We enjoyed the music around the pool and if you wanted a song playing by the dj at noght she was more than happy to play son suggestions. Equally you find a beach with no one on.. if you wanted a quite place. Same for music at night plenty of space outside not as loud as inside, or water villa terrace for total bliss. I would recomend and return. Spa treatment and meal at copper pot recommend them both

The property was dated and the flooring in the room was a health & safety issue. My friend had an accident slipping on the flooring and damaging the TV that he didn’t realise he had damaged it. He was threatened he couldn’t leave the property until he paid for the damage caused. The whole stay not good at all. I will be putting the review on Trip Advisor. I have taken pictures of the flooring as like I’ve explained it’s an hazard to all guests. To be charged $350 is unacceptable

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.
