Absolutely everything about this place is beautifully. The staff work as one team to meet your comfort through your stay. No one person during our stay in this place was rude, or no friendly at any time. The staff make this place feels safe, like home, relax, and want to go back as soon as possible. Keep the wonderful work up team at Oblu Nature. Because you make the customers feel safe, and therefore, you are number one!

Overall a good stay
Overall a good stay. Reef is very good. Limited drinks on all inclusive and wine undrinkable. Food was plentiful and very good. Spa area and treatment were very good. Water villa is looking a little tited and in need of some TLC, for example the window leaks when it rains, tiles missing on the pool. Room cleaning was hit and miss, had to ask for water on more than one occasion as running out. The island is very eco friendly with its own desalination plant for water which is excellent. Staff friendly and welcoming.

The resort itself is great, staff (except doctors) are great. I would put 5 stars if it wasn’t for unprofessional doctors on the island. The result - I lost hearing in one ear due to inflammation (temporarily I hope). I got water stuck in my ear, when trying to clean wax fully blocked ear canal. I talked to TWO doctors on the island in two days, one said ear is clear, other one refused to give me hydrogen peroxide that was on his shelf saying it’s dangerous, though I’ve used it before many times by doctor’s recommendation to soften wax before washing it out with pressure! He gave me waxolve which didn’t help. Eventually in my home country doctor told me to use HYDROGEN PEROXIDE to soften wax, then she washed the wax out. But after 7 days of having water stuck in it, it got inflamed and I still can’t hear on that ear. The island doctors didn’t care, were not attentive, just wanted to get rid of me. Bring your own medicine to islands or insist on your requests!

Dear Mussa Ko, Sunny Greetings from OBLU by Atmosphere at Helengeli! We are glad you enjoyed the food, the facilities, the service provided, the amazing reef and marine life. Our medical team is 24/7 available and at your disposal for any emergency or whatever possible on the island. We are extremely sorry for your feedback and we looked into it very seriously,. During your 7 days stay, you visited the clinic 2 days before departure where after an examination of your ears was suggested to take ear drops, but the offer was rejected. The day before the departure, the same happened and you agreed to take them. As per doctor's evaluation, the mentioned medicine requested was not appropriate for your case and he suggested to see a specialist (ENT) for ear irrigation if the discomfort was continuing. If HYDROGEN PEROXIDE if used when not required, it might even cause ear perforation, skin irritation and blistering . Once again, thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts and recommendations of our little paradise island. We look forward to welcoming you back. Warmest Regards OBLU Helengeli Team

The beach and water is divine
We had an amazing stay. The beach and water is divine and the sea life plentiful. We spent most of our time snorkelling as we just couldn’t get enough. We booked an all-inclusive package in a Deluxe beach villa –super comfortable beds, spacious rooms and amazing bathroom! It is squeaky clean and the attention to detail is amazing. Tip: All the rooms are on the beach with a sea view. The deluxe villas, however, are closer to the sea with bigger windows for more light, a massive bathroom and an outside daybed. There is an extensive collection of drinks on the all-inclusive package and Lahero and his team at Helen bar will make you feel right at home. The restaurant and kitchen provided an extensive menu with very tasty food. Great service by Vikas and team. They also went over and about for my husband’s birthday and made it so special. The shop has souvenirs, necessities and a good selection of sunblock and after sun. The shop lady was also very attentive and knowledgeable. Ask for Chamini or Putu at Elena spa as we had a relaxing couples massage and enjoyed it tremendously. Try the Scuba discovery lesson, it will open a whole new world. Louigi is a great instructor and very patient. They have a registered medical doctor on the premises taking temperatures every morning at breakfast. They will schedule a PCR test for you with the doctor two days before your flight. She takes a nasal and mouth swab, prepares the paperwork and email it to you ready for your flight.

Housereef without Breakwaters
It's a shame we cannot access the housereef during bad weather. If there is breakwaters beyond the housereef people can snorkel in all conditions. There's also construction going on OBLU as well as offshore. Feels like a lot of people moving around.

Mixed Feelings
Got off on the wrong foot as the meet up guy wasn't at the arranged place. Took us 10mins to find him and was brought to wait outside coffee outlet while he get 2 more guests inside. The boat ride and check in was alright. They could have seated us according to rooms on the buggy to avoid having us to get on and off in the heavy rain. They have a good spread for their buffet meals but the meat is mostly overcooked and tough. The cocktails and mock tails were good. Just Grill is worth Waiting for as the reception forgot to pass our reservation on. The medium rare beef tend to be over done but the apertizers, soup, prawn and desserts are good. The Deluxe Villas are much nicer with open beach view. They are well kept during our stay - many thanks to Ahmed! It'd be good to add lines for drying our towels and swimwear. The spa has 3 good and 2 inexperienced Therapists. The ambience and cleanliness was good. The jetty is a haven to watch for dolphins and fish hunt (by bigger fish and birds). It's also a good jump off point for snorkeling back to the beach via the channels. We saw reef sharks and sting rays Swimming at the beach. We experienced both pros and cons at OBLU but overall it's a good resort for the price we paid for.

Really great and friendly staff. The island is very beautiful and very clean. Snorkeling was super, although it was our first time and we cannot compare. Vine selection in all inclusive was very good. If you want more advanced cocktails, they are not so expensive, from 6 usd. Food was good and when it was sea food theme, it was excellent. We were in beach villa 108 and it was very good location.

Alle Mitarbeiter (Empfang, Housekeeping, Köche am Buffet, Service im Restaurant und Bar, Boat Crew, Tauch Guides, Gärtner, SPA, etc.) waren ausnahmslos engagiert, freundlich, hilfsbereit und viele haben täglich gute Laune versprüht. Schade fanden wir nur, dass es die Sitzsäcke auf der Veranda der Rezeption nicht mehr gab, wo wir früher täglich bei kalten Getränken und Fingerfood den Sonnenuntergang als noch ruhigere Alternative zur Poolbar genießen konnten.

ダブルブッキングする、代替対応も最悪なホテルです。
1年前に代金決済完了で予約し、空港からの送迎のスピードボートについて、直接ホテルとメール予約を1ヶ月前にやりとりしたのに、当日空港に着いたらダブルブッキングで宿泊できないと言われました。代替のホテルは用意してくれたのですが、行ってみると同等クラスかそれ以下のホテルと部屋でした。翌朝納得いかないので、ホテルズドットコムさんのLINEでトラブル対応を依頼し交渉してもらいましたが、交渉が長引いて折角の休暇の前半3泊は不本意な代替ホテルに宿泊になりました。残り4泊は5つ星ホテルでしたが、始めからこちらが代替ホテルなら当初からまだ納得したのに、記念日休暇で1年前から楽しみにしていたのに、非常に腹立たしいです。予約サイトでもトラブル対応ぎ非常に悪い有名予約サイトがあることを今回知りましたが、ホテルズドットコムさんのLINE対応は、英語があまりできない我々には非常に助かりました。 このホテルが我々が受けたような対応をすることを知っていたら予約はしていなかったので、注意としてみなさんの参考になれば幸いです。

三拍子も四拍子もそろったリゾート
モルジブは10回以上訪れていますが、ここは海よしごはんよしお部屋よしと非常にバランスのとれたリゾートでした。まず海がいい。気軽にビーチエントリーできてドロップオフまで行けます。透明度も高くお魚がいっぱい、ウミガメさんとも泳げます!ごはんもおいしくオールインクルージブなのでお財布の心配なし。お部屋のミニバーも無料でした。お部屋も水コテでしたが、広さも十分で清潔で使いやすかったです。あと、心配した蚊がいなかったのもポイント高かったです。帰国日は満室でレイトチェックアウトできませんでしたが、17時に船がでるまで飲み物もラウンジで飲めるし、プールサイドのシャワーも使えるし、まったく困りませんでした。とてもおすすめのリゾートですよ。
