The Westin Maldives Miriandhoo Resort

A Truly Unforgettable Maldives Experience from the second we arrived. This small yet well laid out island is a slice of paradise and the rooms are incredibly spacious, beautifully designed, and so comfortable especially for a family of 4. The food was delicious every single day — fresh, flavorful, and full of variety. Most of the meals were a la carte which we prefer and the chef always made sure our fussy eaters had something to eat. The snorkeling was good and we were lucky enough to spot manta rays, turtles, reef sharks, an octopus, eagle rays, and an array of vibrant fish. We did the dolphin cruise too where we spotted plenty of dolphins. We also spotted dolphins while we enjoyed our breakfast which was magical. And above all, it was the staff that made this resort! They went above and beyond to make every one of us feel special, welcomed, and cared for. Their warmth and hospitality set this resort apart from any other we’ve been to. For the first time in all our Maldives trips, we found ourselves not wanting to leave. This place is truly something special.

Amazing service. I have food allergies which were taken care of with great attention. They even managed to get the vegan cheese that I prefer. Kudos to Chef Min, Chef Chetan, Amol who served us so well and the whole team for making it a very comfortable environment. This resort has plenty of things to keep you busy. The yoga sessions, recreational activities and spa were just the cherry on top!

We have never experienced end-to-end service like this before with any holiday or resort, so Marriot we love your ethos of if you look after your staff they will look after your customers! Thank you. Some of our key highlights. - The service on arrival at the airport was undertaken with care and diligence, we felt very looked after. The arrivals lounge had all the amenities we expected, including the ability to take a shower - The Sea plan transfer again was great, with small attention to detail, such as providing earplugs for the noise - On Arrival at the resort, the moment we stepped off the plane we were greeted with smiles, and genuine interest in us as a family. Loved the dhol players and the refreshing ice tea. Thank you to Zainy - The room and the facilities, just wow. Nothing looked tired, everything was well maintained and gosh, what intelligent toilets :) The Cleaners for our room again respected our privacy when required but were always on hand to provide anything we needed, and a cleaning schedule that suited us. Thank you to the cleaning staff - The restaurant and hospitality team cannot begin to express the warmth we felt from each and every member of the staff at the restaurants we attended. I wish I could remember everyone's name, but thank you for remembering our preferences with drinks, mojitos, and small things like we wanted our wine extra chilled. A huge appreciation to all the chefs. Every cuisine we had was delicious, whether eggs in the morning, lunchtime salad, or evening meals. The Indian curries and the pizza were fantastic! With Hawkers i don’t think ive ever seen my husband in heaven with the beef rendang, and again, the meal on the beach on our last evening was evening was so special. Again food was exceptional - The hiring of the snorkelling gear as part of the resort was a huge advantage too - The sports facilities were some of the best. we went to the gym 6 out of our 7 days, always with amazing support from Santosh the team. The Tennis coaching, the fitness training and the yoga session again all exceptional. A big thank you to both members of the Leisure facilities - Finally, a huge thank you to the management team - Zainy for organising a surprise 16th Birthday decoration and dhol players - Rohit for organising for us to see the back of the office with the Chief Engineer, Ananth - what an amazing experience to see how water filtration works with enough of a backup for 5 days, also the significant contributions of the solar panels. Very inspired by the dedication to ensure the coral and reefs are fully protected. - Nithil Baskar for showing us so much care and attention, it didn’t matter where we were or what time it was, he always stopped to have a chat with us. Enough care to also meet us on our last day and just before departure. - Also, the departures team, the sign saying ‘We will miss you’ as we set off on our boat for the seaplane - The service didn’t just stop at the resort again, we had care and attention for each of the airport team, helping us with our transfer and luggage all the way part security and steps away from the Leela lounge. Just wow.

We are happy with the choice of the hotel. We have known this chain of hotels for a long time. Friendly and attentive staff. Delicious cuisine, beautiful interior, clean beach. Special thanks to Yulia, Togzhan, Rohit, Iksan and the entire hotel team.
