Every time you think of a Maldives hotel, a picture of beautiful water bungalows floating above crystal clear waters, pretty secluded cottages scattered on the white soft sands of the diving beaches, and the white and blue ocean-inspired décor interiors comes to mind. But what about the local touch? Enter Oaga Art Resort, a stunning and out-of-this-world art haven nestled in paradise.
A LOCAL TWIST
Situated in North Malé Atoll, a mere 45-minute speedboat ride from Malé International Airport, Oaga Art Resort is breaking the mould of traditional Maldives hotels. Born out of a desire to offer an unmatched local experience, this resort is a treasure for lovers of art, music, architecture, and all things creative.
The resort boasts 60 villas with beach and over-water options, each uniquely designed to immerse guests in Maldivian history, art, and culture. Spearheaded by a young team of driven individuals, the resort merges Maldivian artistry and creativity into the hotel industry.
