OBLU NATURE Helengeli, a house reef in the Maldives operated by SENTIDO, remains one of the most thrilling destinations in terms of under-water adventures. Its unique position allows guests of the resort to explore exciting underwater worlds full of life with strong currents bringing different species of marine life, as well as easy access to top spots in the atoll.

Strengthening its guest experience, OBLU NATURE Helengeli by SENTIDO has introduced Thundi Beach Bar, a new beachfront venue designed as a peaceful retreat for relaxation and refreshment just steps away from the shoreline.

Positioned between two stunning oceanfronts, Thundi Beach Bar offers a serene barefoot escape where guests can unwind while enjoying uninterrupted views of the Indian Ocean.

Visitors can easily enjoy a drink and relax by the beach without moving far from the island’s spectacular marine surroundings.

Commenting on the launch, Alain Trefois, General Manager, shared: “At Helengeli, so much of the guest experience revolves around the ocean. Whether diving, snorkelling, or simply enjoying the reef. With Thundi Beach Bar, we wanted to create a space that feels naturally connected to these moments, offering guests a convenient and relaxed spot to pause, refresh, and continue their island journey without interruption.”
