The only word to describe the experience is exceptional. You will have the time of your life. Food from Element X includes Western, Asian and Indian and always something for the vegetarians. Only Blu Underwater Restaurant is at an additional cost but marvellous experience. Copper Pot Food, You must like the Maldivian Lobster and the Peruvian Chicken also at additional cost. Although is is ALL-INCLUSIVE, it is Limited but has quite a variety. I enjoyed my stay in the Maldives at Oblu Xperience. This is where your dream Maldives vacation will come through.

The property was beautiful and the staff was so welcoming. But I just wish there was more dining options. Oblu restaurant was such a treat, food was superb and the service was even better. My mouth still waters thinking about the food.

Luxury and modern hotel, friendly staff, nice food and pleasant atmosphere with lovely lounge music at the restaurant. Beaches are not overcrowded, beautiful swimming pool area, rooms are just beautiful with stunning ocean views. We were so pleased to see staff welcoming us upon arrival on the hotel pierce. WiFi could be a little bit faster and we also expected to try more exotic fruits, but overall experience was perfect anyway. Thank you.

This resort has a horrible food selection. The buffet has very odd hours. I also did not enjoy the x360 bar. They play the same old music, and the band performs songs that no one knows. They also slow kids at the bar until it closes, which creates a bad environment for the adults trying to enjoy themselves. There is no room service which is also incredibly inconvenient. The mini bar is barely stocked, only 4 cans of soda. The air conditioner is also bad. No matter where you go all they have is fans going, which makes it very comfortable when trying to eat or relax. I would not recommend this resort to anyone.

The service was great. The staff are very friendly. They only Blue underwater restaurant was amazing. The spa and the massage was out of this world. I wish they had more options on the menu for lunch or dinner. The drinks are ok but doing shots with cheap liquor is not a good idea. The resort is kid friendly. That being said I will stay at the adult only side next time.

We got bad experience ever in life. They broke our baggage since when we don't know. Prior we handed to them, it was in great condition and we could not go back because we don't hav baggage and after investigation, they said it was broken before we arrived the hotel. Lol the image they sent did not told so since it was after they broke ours - it was how they stored in the boat and how they throws and they did not take care well. And they blamed us. Do not every think of this in your choice. I got no compensation and would not stop telling people to not come. BAD SERVICE, LIAR... Is not this imply how they would give you a service?

Beach villa is definitely the way to go, right on your own beach with a little cove to swim in with a lot of sea life. Good variety of food and drinks. Underwater restaurant is good but expensive as is the shop that sells clothes and touristy items. Coffee shop prices are ok but it’s only open after 10.30am. Pool gets very warm ( like bath water ) but swimming in the ocean is great. Lots of water sport options but also very expensive, e.g Manta Ray dive was USD 250 per person! Overall a great location and holiday, one to remember!

The resort was beautiful and the staff were always friendly and more then willing to take time out of there day to help out if needed , Copper pot was an amazing dinner , only down fall is the bar area not a lot of drink selection as you have to choose off a list and at night it’s a bit noisy but then again they offer live music which is also a plus . All in all a great trip

Cons: shower goes hot and cold all the time, with 4 of us, did not change from 1st to last taking shower. Room for improvement: water sports, unable to go almost anywhere, only front of main beach. Pool exercise class, very fun, wish they did 2-3 times a day. Wish they had more entertainment activities for families. Wish they had morning tea, afternoon tea snacks to eat. Wish they had ice cream by the beach. Wish they had chocolate powder to make chocolate milk for kids and to add to capuccino. Pros: amazing, friendly and caring staff throughout whole hotel. Everyone was nice, restaurants, drivers, reception, housekeeping, pool, bar, excellent. Location, very short boat ride from airport. They have a canal in middle of island, great for snorkling with some fish and baby shark. They have an amazing underwater restaurant (extra fee). They have photographers (extra fee). Bonus: best feature that I had never seen anywhere else I've travelled: they offered free medical first aid, 5 stars!!! Amazing views. Buggy ride easy and frequently available.

I approached Oblu Ailafushi with some hesitation due to mixed reviews but was thoroughly charmed upon arrival. The resort's willingness to accommodate an early check-in for our family, especially with a young child in tow, was a relief and set a hospitable tone for our stay. The food was a highlight, offering a delectable spread of various cuisines, including exceptional local Maldivian dishes that deserve every bit of their 5-star rating. The buffet was a hit with both adults and children, ensuring palates of all ages were satisfied. The drinks menu complemented our meals beautifully, and while water sports were on the pricier side, the pristine beach and crystal-clear waters made every moment worthwhile. Housekeeping, especially Mueed, added a personal touch with creative towel origami that delighted my child, reflecting the resort's dedication to guest happiness. The clean beach, beautiful waters, and excellent kids club make Oblu Ailafushi a top recommendation for families seeking a blend of relaxation and engagement. The entertainment was consistently enjoyable, rounding off what was truly a memorable stay. Whether you're worried about previous reviews or looking for a family-friendly haven, Oblu Ailafushi exceeds expectations and earns my enthusiastic recommendation.

High quality, good value way to see Maldives
The water villa was lovely with variety of fish easily seen off balcony.The buffet food was high quality and a great variety.The spa was the best we’ve ever experienced. The all inclusive option was great. As with all Maldives extras / gifts were expensive so would suggest taking your own snorkels if you can.

I loved this property. It was beautiful and very clean (they even rake the sand!). The staff was friendly and very attentive. There were plenty of daytime excursions and activities. I didn’t like there was no air conditioning in the restaurant or bar areas. There is only one bar and one restaurant for the all inclusive plan. It’s buffet style with a lot of choices but the menu didn't change too much from day to day and the food was average. The under water restaurant (not included in the all inclusive meals) was beautiful and the food was excellent. It cost $382 with the fees so we only went once. We stayed for a week and it got boring towards the end of our stay.

Our stay at the Oblu was absolutely fantastic! We really enjoyed it! The team are incredible and really made our stay special! Only a few things that let the stay down, one thing is the British Airways Crew that are on the Island, they take great pleasure in getting very drunk and telling all the guests how they are staying for just £200 when everyone else is paying thousands… The other thing is that there is no service on the beach, you have to go to the bar constantly and queue up for quite a long time as everyone is drinking cocktails. As an all inclusive there should at least be a beer/wine station so that you don’t waste hours of your day stood around. Apart from that everything was excellent and we are very likely to come back again.

This is definitely a great option. Especially since it’s on the cheaper size. While I did get an over water bungalow, they don’t offer private pools. I love that the airport is only a 15minute boat ride and it’s free, unlike most other hotels. Only blu underwater restaurant was amazing even though it was an extra expense. I wish they offered more then one restaurant in their fushi/all inclusive plan. While the food is good it would have been nice to have multiple options. The only place you’ll find AC is in your room so prepare to sweat lol. Also all the drinks are warm we had to ask for ice on multiple occasions. The property is just stunning. There’s a large pool an in water trampoline and a water slide. They also offer entertainment at night as well as morning yoga and pool aerobics. Not a fan of the 15 minute a day use of the free water sports (I never got a chance to try any of them)

A fantastic, surreal vacation in an idyllic setting. The resort was gorgeous and the beach villa, with direct access to the beach, made it seem like I was on my own island. It was beautiful weather and seeing and swimming among all the fish through the clear, blue-green water was one of the highlights. The buffet was absolutely delicious, with plenty of choices. Most of the staff were pleasant and friendly. A great deal for anyone who wants to visit the Maldives.
