Oaga Art Resort unveils exquisite Odi Water Villas in a symphony of luxury and art

Published

on

In a breathtaking expanse of the Indian Ocean, where the echoes of ancient tales blend with the gentle lapping of crystalline waters, Oaga Art Resort proudly introduces its latest gem – the Odi Water Villas. Translating to ‘naval ship’ in Dhivehi, these villas pay homage to the tales of Koimala and the pioneering settlers, the ‘Dheyvis,’ in a captivating visual palette of white and vibrant hues.

Stepping into the realm of the Odi Water Villa is to step away from the ordinary. As you draw back the curtains, you are enveloped in an ambiance that transcends time and place. The walls bathed in profound blue, the interior exuding a timeless darkness – this is where luxury takes on an entirely new meaning. Elevated over the water, each villa boasts a slide, hammock, a sprawling swimming pool, and a semi-open ensuite bath.

Odi Water Villas extend an invitation not just to seekers of solace but to those yearning for new experiences. Tailored for couples and families marking milestones or seeking tranquility, these villas redefine the art of vacationing.

What sets these villas apart is not merely their stunning design but the curated experiences they offer. The bar station transcends its role as a place to mix drinks; it becomes where memories are crafted, conversations flow, and the art of mixology intertwines with your journey. Then there’s the coin mural by the locally renowned street artist Ahmed Sobah, aka Toxicrew, a visual masterpiece inspired by copper coins that once served as currency in the Maldives during ancient times.

But amidst all this sophistication, the sheer fun that awaits is not to be forgotten. Your private pool and slide are not mere amenities; they are gateways to unforgettable moments, whether you seek relaxation or a splash of adventure.

For those traveling with family, Oaga presents a family-friendly water villa option, featuring two spacious rooms, each thoughtfully designed for your family’s comfort.

Embark on a journey to a realm where luxury floats on crystalline waters, and art seamlessly intertwines with nature. Odi Water Villas in the Maldives await – an invitation to celebrate, rejuvenate, and create memories that linger long after the journey ends.

For ardent Maldives enthusiasts in search of an all-inclusive holiday, Oaga Art Resort’s Greatest All-Inclusive plan redefines the boundaries of what ‘all-inclusive’ truly means. With inclusions such as Creative Expression (art) classes, Take Notes (music) experiences, In-Villa Dining to floating meals, choices of excursions, motorized watersports, and more, guests can visit the website www.oagaresorts.com to secure their stay – an opportunity not to be missed!

Situated in North Malé Atoll, Oaga Art Resort is a mere 45-minute speedboat ride from Malé International Airport. This small island boasts 60 villas with beach and overwater options, five dining venues, and a spa inspired by Maldivian traditional healing practices. Oaga Art Resort’s artistic and creative spaces offer an immersive experience curated by both local and visiting artists and craftsmen from the Maldives.
