The resort features 162 stand-alone beach and water villas, delivering timeless five-star luxury and curated experiences for families, honeymooners, and adventure-seekers alike.

Meanwhile, OBLU SELECT Lobigili, located in the North Malé Atoll, offers an intimate, adults-only escape just 15 minutes by speedboat from Malé. Designed as a romantic sanctuary, the resort embodies privacy, elegance, and tranquillity.
