One downside of the island's size and the amount of buildings packed onto a small landmass is that during our stay we felt like there was a lack of privacy on the island outside of the four walls of your room. Inside the room there's a small wardrobe for unpacking, a table and chair, and a minibar stocked with snacks, beer, wine and soft drinks that are replenished daily and all included during your stay. The large bathrooms, stocked with products from The White Company, are part outdoors but fully covered, which might be a welcome design element for those less keen on the fully outdoor Maldivian bathroom experience. This matches the kimono-style cotton robes hanging in the wardrobe for guests to use during their stay.

The large, comfortable king-size bed is flanked by sliding shutters embossed with gilded cartoon shells at the head and a huge mustard-yellow beanbag at the foot with love written in different languages as a pattern.

The design of the rooms is an interesting mix of Harajuku-inspired interior design and quintessential Maldivian style. The sandy track is also flanked with beach villas on one side - all with their own private plunge pools, access to the beach and sunset views. Upon arrival you will also be shown the island’s main bar and pool which stands near the over water villas and the island’s main restaurant - Ylang Ylang. There are plenty of spots to encourage relaxation with a view of the waves. A single sandy track connects the over-water villas at one end of the island with a wooden bridge at the other end that leads to the island’s impressive over water gym and even more spectacular underwater restaurant.Īlong the way, hammocks hang between the palms on the white sand beaches overlooking the turquoise blue waters, with sun loungers and shades carefully placed along the small shell-smattered shore. A relatively small island compared to others in the Maldives (and indeed Lobigili’s own neighbour Oblu Ailafushi) the tour doesn’t take too long, which weary travellers fresh off their long haul flight will be appreciative of.
