The resort is very nice, we had a water villa facing east, which was great, a big and fully equipped room and the house reef was just in front of our deck!
The house reef is excellent, saw turtles, sharks, eagle rays and lots of colourful fish and corals. Top!
Service was great everywhere in the resort especially mentioning the restaurant and reception staff.
Food was really gourmet in the 2 a la cart restaurants, definitely a must visit.
The main restaurant buffet was a bit of a let-down, repetitive, very Indian/eastern oriented, only the few live stations saved it. Definitely not 5 star. Service was great though.
Dive center was another let down, not flexible, nothing special in the excursions we went to, have been to much more adventurous and special excursions in other Maldives resorts.
Spa was excellent, really professional, a must try and some procedures included in AI.
The reason for the overall 3 stars is the departure trip to the airport- reception staff was great, but once boarding the boat the crew told us to sit in the back since front seats are “reserved for staff”, we did, next to the engine. It is a not a totally closed boat, so no air-con and no water provided, waves kept hitting and our seat and we got all wet, hot and by the time we got to the airport we needed a change of clothes! See pic.
So, overall, 5 stars I have to give for staff, reef, rooms and must mention that Sangeli is definitely a great AI option for first time Maldives visitors with kids. Couples, repeats and keen snorkellers/divers could find a better option for the price.

We had an unforgettable experience at OBLU SELECT Sangeli in the Maldives! The island is absolutely stunning, with a beautiful beach and crystal-clear waters. We stayed in a water villa that faced the sea, and it was a dream come true. The villa’s location allowed us to see a variety of fish swimming right below us – perfect for snorkeling! The underwater world here is vibrant and full of life.
The service was exceptional. Every staff member went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable. They truly make you feel like you’re at home. The food was another highlight – there’s a great variety of delicious dishes, all prepared with care and full of flavor.
Many thanks again to all the staff on the island for their thoughtful and warm service.

We had an incredible honeymoon at Sangeli. We stayed in one of the water villas on the sunrise side. Every day we saw turtles, rays and sharks right from our villa. Great service. The staff were amazing. They kept asking us how our stay was, and checked in if we needed anything. The food at the buffet was delicious, and different every day. The night entertainment was a bit repetitive, but enjoyable.

Oblu Select Sangeli was an absolute paradise! The nature is stunning, the whole resort is super clean and well-maintained, and the staff is simply amazing—always friendly and smiling, helpful, and going the extra mile to make guests feel special. Flawless service! We spent our honeymoon here and were blown away by the thoughtful surprises they prepared for us!
Also, the house reef is fantastic—tons of marine life, and I was lucky enough to spot manta rays, turtles, reef sharks, and all kinds of colorful fish while snorkeling.
The main buffet restaurant was a bit lacking - the food quality was really good, but there was very little variety overall (and especially for breakfast), and it was quite repetitive and Indian/Asian oriented.
The diving center excursions were also a bit of a letdown - nothing really special, and honestly I was able to spot more marine life in the house reef compared to the diving center excursions, so in my opinion the prices of those were not justified.
Despite those small areas of improvement, I would definitely recommend Oblu Select Sangeli. Truly an unforgettable experience, and I’d love to come back one day!

I loved the hotel. The service was amazing. The room was huge. They provided life jackets and snorkeling masks.
Swimming around the resort is great. You will see loads of fishes. I did a sunset snorkel with the dive centre and saw turtles, Lion fish, lobster by the hotel.
A spa treatment was included in our stay and the massage was really good.
The hotel has a lot of facilities from the dive center to tennis courts. I wish they would provide some bicycles for guests as it would be fun to cycle round.
The hotel has an app where all the information is stored. I didn't find it the most friendly to use. I struggled with my pillow and did not realise they have a pillow menu until I was browsing on the app. Premium services such as this could be explicitly called out when you check in or by leaving a card on the bed.
There is also a gym to help you avoid putting on weight during your stay! I used it once for a pilatrs class. They also do morning yoga classes.
There are 3 restaurants. The main one was amazing. Staff exemplary. I was friendly with one chef who tried to make whatever I wanted.
Definitely worth visiting.
