An island resort on Maaranfushi

Oaga Art Resort occupies its own island in Maaranfushi Atoll, about 48 km from Velana International Airport and reached by seaplane or domestic flight. The five-star property runs four restaurants, a spa, and a fitness centre, with a house reef accessible directly from the beach. The resort has a distinct arts angle — temporary art galleries and cultural tours sit alongside the usual water activities. Families are catered for with a kids' club, kid-friendly dining options, and family rooms. Google reviewers rate it 4.6 from 204 reviews.

Indicative room-only estimate from the lowest nightly rate — excludes airport transfers, taxes and seasonal price changes. Many Maldives properties also require a minimum stay. Check live rates for your dates.

House reef and water access

The reef sits directly off the beach, so snorkelling and diving do not require a boat transfer. Fishing is also available from the island, making it practical for guests who want to get in the water more than once a day.

Four restaurants on one island

The resort runs four separate dining outlets. The kitchen covers continental, full English, vegetarian, vegan, halal, gluten-free, Asian, and American options. Special diet menus are available on request, and there is a kid-friendly buffet.

Arts and cultural programming

Temporary art galleries rotate on-property, and the activities list includes a tour or class about local Maldivian culture and cooking classes. This is relatively unusual for a Maldivian resort of this size.

Spa and fitness facilities

The spa and wellness centre is the main draw for non-divers. A separate fitness centre runs aerobics classes. BBQ facilities and a picnic area add options for guests who want to eat outside the main restaurants.

Family infrastructure

A dedicated kids' club, children's meals, a kid-friendly buffet, and family rooms are all confirmed on-property. The house reef is beach-entry, which removes one logistical hurdle for families with younger children.

Evening and social activities

Live music and performances, themed dinner nights, movie nights, and a happy hour run regularly. Archery and a games room add daytime options beyond the water.

Getting there

Getting to Oaga Art Resort on Maaranfushi in Kaafu Atoll means covering about 48 km from Malé (MLE) by seaplane — a scenic flight of roughly 20 minutes. The resort books the seaplane with your stay. Seaplanes fly in daylight hours only, so late arrivals may overnight in Malé.

Seaplane transfers typically run $250–600 per person round trip, booked through the property. A few islands in this band are also served by a domestic flight to a nearby regional airport plus a short boat — ask the property which routing is faster for your dates.
