"This place was heaven on earth! It was the best snorkelling I’ve ever seen! The staff were all go gracious! The food had so much variety and was absolutely delicious! I would recommend that they remind guests upon arrival to not stand or touch the coral. I saw a lot of damage and dead coral - and literally witnessed people standing on coral - of course I yelled to them to get off - but they didn’t seem to understand English. I feel that telling all guests at the arrival meeting is imperative. I would LOVE to return to this resort! 10 out of 10 for sure!"

"My husband and I had the absolute pleasure of staying on this small, beautiful island and can say with confidence that it was one of the best holiday experiences of our lives. The intimacy of this tiny island was exactly what we were looking for - it felt like our own private paradise! Every inch of the island was beautifully maintained and the setting was straight out of a dream. One of the highlights was definitely the house reef. Amazing snorkeling was just a short swim from either your room or the beach! The diversity of the marine life was incredible and bountiful, including colourful fish, turtles, rays and small (and big) sharks. It felt like having our own private aquarium right on our doorstep! We even had the good fortune to witness dolphins playing and jumping from the panoramic view from the gymnasium. The food was another standout, with the buffet style breakfast providing a huge variety of food to cater for ever pallet and was very impressive considering the island’s small size. Each evening meal was also a feast for the senses, prepared to perfection and served with a smile. What truly made this trip exceptional, however, was the staff. The service was faultless and everyone was incredibly friendly and attentive. They took the time to get to know us and tailored everything to make sure our stay was as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. Attention to detail was remarkable and it was clear they genuinely cared about making our experience unforgettable."

"It is the most beautiful hotel on the most beautiful island! Must Visit! Our Aris Meeha Alina made our trip special! Thank you for everything, we will be back!!"

"Just returned from a fabulous trip to Oaga Art Resort. We've been to a few 5-star resorts in the Maldives. This place is very special. We loved the incredible staff and sense of community they bring to your stay. From the moment you arrive, you feel welcomed and a part of island life. What I thought would be hokey - a Maldivian welcome dance on arrival, etc. turned out to be a very authentic experience. I would turn right around and go back tomorrow! Our "butler" or “Malemi” (Navigator), Schif was wonderful. She guided our stay in the most thoughtful and unobtrusive way. Her good humor was infectious, and she had an uncanny ability to turn up right when we needed her. The Maldives are beautiful. Who doesn't love a vacation on a beach - no shoes needed. The warm colored Maldivian blue water was pure joy. Our Haruge Beach Villa (with a private plunge pool) was just steps from the sea. We were able to snorkel and PADI dive. The nature and sea life did not disappoint. The sunset cruise was also a highlight. We were treated to Maldivian song and dances and soon the whole boat was dancing and singing along with our spectacular hosts. The Hoba Spa was also a treat. They had such a nice welcome ritual. We had couples deep tissue massages in a beautiful setting. Pasang, a Buddhist yoga teacher from Bhutan provided my treatment. She did a brilliant job for the full 90 minutes. She also ran the almost daily Hendhunu Ritual at the Hoba Deck which was a wonderful."
