The Westin Maldives Miriandhoo Resort

Excellent services. Should try out the heavenly spa. Nice views and professional staff. Whole body felt relax after the 90 min session. Thumbs up

We are a family of 4, with 2 kids aged 11 and 10. We stayed in the overwater villa for 5 nights 6 days. The Westin is located about 35mins by seaplane from Male. Its a small resort with 70 accomodations (28 water villas and 42 beach villas). It has 3 restaurants and the usual facilities of a 5 star resort. What seperates this resort from the rest in my opinion is the service and attention to detail by the staff. Special shout out to Santria (F&B manager) and Laurent (GM) of the resort. Our feedback and comments were indeed taken seriously and acted upon, and we had a good experience thanks to them. The house reef is decent, and snorkling on a clear day you will see turtles, reef sharks and all the varieties of reef fishes. We took the sunset fishing trip and it is highly recommended, and we had our catch served for dinner the next day - it was so good. All in all it was a very pleasant experience at the resort, and once again I emphasize that it is the people there that made this smaller resort stand out from the rest.

Maldives in general are some of the best diving and wildlife viewing that I’ve ever seen. Couple that with an outstanding dive guide and you get one of the most memorable experiences of your life. The Westin Miriandhoo resort was amazing at the staff were exceptional. I was initially worried about the location being so remote and nothing but the resort on the island, but it turned out to be not an issue at all. The rooms were outstanding (unless you’re like me and don’t like a “toilet with a view”) and the atmosphere made you forget the rest of the world existed. Overall the value was about right. It’s a bit pricey but they make sure you don’t have to ask for anything more. Cleaning staff comes by twice a day and the grounds staff are constantly working to ensure everything is pristine. Noise is NOT an issue at all. I read a review prior to our arrival that said “you can hear the water treatment plant everywhere on the island” but I can assure you that’s absolutely false. Standing within the wall of the facility I could hear it but outside all you hear are the waves and birds. Oh if you’re a diver get Iyaan (that’s an i) to take you out and show you the spots. Outstanding guide and very knowledgeable about the regions and wildlife.

Our stay at this beautiful little island in the Maldives was absolutely unforgettable. It’s a small and truly romantic place — perfect for relaxation and quality time together. The villa rooms were stunning, spacious, and surrounded by breathtaking scenery. What really made our vacation so special was the amazing staff. They went above and beyond to make sure we had the perfect holiday, and we even became friends with several of them during our stay. Nothing was ever too much to ask — everything was done with a smile and genuine kindness. The food and drinks were simply delicious, with plenty of variety and great attention to detail. Every meal felt special. We left with full hearts and wonderful memories. Thank you to everyone for making our time here so magical. We can’t wait to come back!
