The hotel

Newly refurbished in 2023, the OBLU NATURE Helengeli by SENTIDO welcomes back its guests with a delightful vibrant look and feel… Renowned for its quality and service, the OBLU NATURE Helengeli by SENTIDO brings with it enticing and refreshing interiors and design and a new island resort concept. You will benefit from the latest in hotel luxuries alongside the timeless treats a Maldivian island guarantees. Treats like diving at the 5-star PADI dive centre, snorkelling in crystal waters, relaxing by a choice of swimming pools (including an adults-only pool in a secluded area of the island) and strolling on sugar white sands that have barely seen a footprint. In a quiet spot on the less-developed northeast rim of the atoll, OBLU NATURE Helengeli by SENTIDO has an exotic and unique house reef, home to pelagic fish, just metres from its shoreline, so it’s a good job the use of snorkelling gear’s included in your All-Inclusive plan, not to mention one a la carte dining experience at Just Grill or Raga Route for every 4 night stay, both if staying 8 nights and selected excursions and activities. Best of all... It's only 50 minutes away from the airport on a complimentary speedboat transfer.

From the moment we landed, to the moment we left the island, we were pampered, and rested to luxurious relaxation. The food was absolutely amazing. The snorkeling was easy, safe, and full of sea life! Octopus, rays, squid, puffer fish, moray eel, black tip reef shark, nurse shark, sea cucumbers, and countless varieties of brightly colored tropical fish! On land there were cute geckos, chattering fruit bats (with cute fox faces!), scurrying hermit crabs, and meandering kanbili birds! The staff was always smiling friendly, exceeding expectation in terms of attention to fulfilling our every need. The weather was beautiful, and although it did rain a little, it hardly seemed to matter, given the stress free lifestyle in our own little slice of heaven. Special thanks to Laltu, who went out of his way to make sure our room was beautifully made up each day, and was always asking if there was anything else we needed for our minibar. Thanks to our greeter Nash and waiter Navee, who always were smiling and chatting with us as we sat for our meals. Thanks to Mamette and Aliha, our snorkel guides, who watched over us and provided us a once-in-a-lifetime night time snorkel experience, complete with bioluminescent fish! Thanks to our Lifeguard Ali, who always watched over us as we snorkeled the house reef, and told us where the good places to go were, where we could spot a grazing sea turtle! thanks to Bishnu, the head of food and beverage, who was so accomodating to attend to our every need, and give us a peek into the staff and operations of our island paradise. I was so impressed, and grateful for their efforts to make our experience so memorable. Can’t say enough about the dedicated staff and overall ambiance and beautiful surroundings to this amazing oasis. It was a first class experience that gave us wonderful memories that will last a lifetime! Read less
