Before you book

Can we bring children?

No — OBLU SELECT Lobigili is adults-only (18+), Colours of OBLU's first resort built exclusively for couples. There's no kids' club, no family villa category and no child occupancy on any of the three villa types; the spa's complimentary Lobi Plan™ treatments are likewise 18+ only.

What's the snorkelling and diving like?

A rich house reef sits a short swim from the island's eastern shore, and snorkelling gear is complimentary for the whole stay, alongside one complimentary guided snorkelling trip per guest per stay (weather permitting). The island markets its own PADI and SSI Certified Dive School & Watersports Centre, though the resort's own factsheet separately credits dive-school access to OBLU Xperience Ailafushi, a sister Colours of OBLU property nearby — both statements appear on official channels, so we'd clarify which applies to your booking before committing to a dive package.

Does the Lobi Plan™ include a spa treatment?

Yes — eligible adults (18+) get complimentary 45-minute treatments at ELE|NA Ayur, scaled to how long you stay: one treatment for 4-7 nights, two for 8-11, three for 12-15, four for 16-19, and one more for every additional four nights beyond that.
