OBLU XPERIENCE Ailafushi 

A sassy and stylish spot for couples and families

This vibrant resort has a show stealing underwater restaurant and ocean views from every room.

OBLU XPERIENCE Ailafushi merges a chilled out party vibe with an action-packed watersports scene and outstanding family-friendly facilities. DJ’s play around a huge pool, the buffet restaurant comes with self-pour wine dispensers and the resort has one of the largest kids’ clubs in the Maldives. The all-inclusive Fushi plan is brilliant as it is splashing out to dine under the sea at Only BLU.

Why we love OBLU XPERIENCE Ailafushi

  • Ocean Family Rooms with two bedrooms and bathrooms are great for all the gang.

  • Sunsets and seafood at The Copper Pot Food Truck.

  • Snorkels, kayaks and paddle boards available from the watersports centre.
