How to describe a dream come true?
Imagine freezing temperatures, slush, fog, and rain in November and December at home, topped by the ubiquitously lurking menace of Covid.
Evasion to paradise would be a turquoise warm sea, a private island for you and your loved one, a warm breeze, sand between your toes day and night, a tropical vegetation with swaying palmtrees, and a busy colorful housereef right in front of your luxurious and clean private bungalow.
This paradise has a name, Oblu at Helengeli, a small island in the Maldives, a mere 12 hours away from home. A dream unexpectedly come true whithin days as we could think it up!
Reality has surpassed our dreams beyond imagination! We found a wonderful, clean and well run resort. The excellent, variate cuisine with lush buffets for any palate, small restaurants, and a bar with the most colorful drinks and sunsets leave no wish - all inclusive in your dreams! The most valuable asset is a competent, discreet and friendly staff from various places around the Indian ocean.
Back home we still remember quite a few of their names that were not fluent to us before:
Nassim, Vivia, Ajay and Muaz at the reception, Lahiru, Atheeg, Udaya and Shaheen at the bar. We remember Pradeep, Vikas, Zinntu, Shaffu, and Nadja to name a few at the restaurant, or Sugath and Nimal in the kitchen. The executive chef in the kitchen, Lal, introduced us in a private cooking class to the essentials of curry preparation. They all do an outstanding job to produce excellent and fresh food for various tastes in top quality!
Valentina and Luigi from Italy run the dive center and guided us to the subaquean beauties beyond snorkelling. Lisa, the omnipresent charming resort manager, also from Italy, knows everybody on the island, and everybody knows and adores her. And in our dreams we remember quite a few more faces even without their names - a group that has in common a friendliness, radiance and dedication to make our stay under the circumstances given the most memorable ever.

It was our second stay at this unique resort - and definitely not our last!
We missed absolutely nothing! Great food, staff very very helpful and always friendly! Whether at the reception, in the restaurant, at Helen???s Bar (Especially Lahiru, Angie), at the Spa (Mey, Chamini). Special thanks to Vale and Luigi from the diving center!! Miss u!
We felt very comfortable as a family ( our daughters are 1 and 4 years).
The house reef is really great for snorkeling (Turtles, sharks, octopus, lots of colorful fishes,...), it???s always worth it.
Thanks for the lovely Christmas and a great New Year???s Eve!!
We hope to have the opportunity to come back again soon!
Miss you all!
A big thank to Lisa and her wonderful TEAM!
Take Care
Flo, Mary, Luna& Cleo
