All the wonderful reviews you read are so true and very accurate, our first time to Maldives, Mirihi made transfers so easy , everything taken care of. We have never experienced such good service, food , accomodation and surroundings before. Everything was perfect and we could not fault anything. A huge thank you to all staff for making this birthday unforgettable . We will be bringing family back to Mirihi for sure.…
The island is small, but has everything you need for a luxurious, peaceful, relaxing holiday. The over water villa accommodation was spacious, very well appointed and serviced twice a day. The reef is full of an amazing variety of fish and we saw turtles as well as manta rays around the island. We opted for full board and all meals are served buffet-style. There was a huge variety of very tasty food on offer - all exceptional quality in our opinion. Alcoholic drinks were expensive, but this is the Maldives so you need to expect that. The staff were all very friendly and responsive and it is hard to single anyone out as they were all excellent. The over water bar is a lovely place to relax at the end of the day watching the sun setting and fish swimming past. The water-sports equipment was excellent and dive school staff very helpful. Everything and everywhere on the island is well cared for and maintained and although the island is small, there is plenty of space to relax on the beach and feel that the island is almost your own. We did the whale shark excursion on their schooner boat and were able to swim with manta rays, saw dolphins as well as one whale shark. There were only 7 of us, so it felt like a private yacht and the buffet lunch they provided was amazing too. Our stay on Mirihi is an experience we will treasure forever.…
What a beautiful island, it’s a little paradise in the South Ari Atoll, a perfect island to calming down, relax end just be. All the staff is absolutely amazing, very friendly, helpful and professional. I would especially thanks to Pawane and Alexa, they are always there for their guests. The Divecenter is fitted with top equipment and the Divesides speak for themselves. Philipp, Katharina, Yuki and Sandra are the best contacts when you would like to make bubbles, fun-dive or go for a professional diver. After diving you can relax in the beautiful Spa, i recommended 90min Balinese Massage with herbal stamp. Oh and don’t forget the food- heaven. thank you all for make my stay so special an unique as Mirihi. see you soon, Sandra …

The dive / boat team are brilliant - very professional and friendly - with a great choice of dive sites. The accommodation and food is just outstanding. Thanks for the memories and making us feel so special.…
I stayed a week at Mirihi during August, it was my first time in the Maldives. I already had high expectations due to a friend’s recommendation but reality surpassed any of those expectations by a very large margin. I can hands-down say that it was the best resort experience I have ever had. It actually doesn’t feel like a resort; the impression is rather of a diverse group who are welcoming friends. Very chilled, unpretentious, with a lot of good humor and genuinely interested to make their guests feel at ease. The service is outstanding, across the board. Reception, restaurant, bar, dive center, everywhere the same world class standard, consistently. The facilities are simple, no pomp and knickknack, but by no means unsophisticated. It is evident from the start that the resort was build and had until recently been run by a private person as the love to detail is not only revealed in the tableware, decoration but also in the high quality of the wooden buildings, bathroom appliances and furniture. Very tasteful and accommodating. The food is outstanding and of a very broad variety. All dishes are made from scratch on-site and the ingredients are always fresh, even those which have to be flown in from Male. The kitchen staff also has no hesitation to go the extra mile for special requests which might be off buffet or off menu (I just can say fresh yellowfin tuna steaks – line catch delivered by the local fishermen). Mirihi is a small island (and is a barefoot zone in its entirety) but it never felt crowded and privacy was never invaded. It is a quiet place, where the sound of waves and wind is what you hear. Even in the evening, music at the bar or the spectacular Muraka on-the-water restaurant is kept low, never invasive and always tasteful. Mirihi is explicitly NOT the place for Jetski racing, bananaboat excursions or full moon parties. But it is for amazing dive tours and snorkeling. The dive center is outstanding, run by very experienced and friendly staff and very well organized and stocked with very well maintained top-end diving gear. The diving tours were breathtaking. With regards to snorkeling, all you need is walk out the door (I had a beach villa) and across the impeccably maintained beach (of course avoiding the turtle egg hatching sites) into the water. Its literally jumping into a massive aquarium (Mirihi has its own house reef) where you already can observe a massive array of marine life without heading out into open water. It’s fairly obvious that I can recommend this place in all its aspects (and this is my honest opinion, I have not been incentivized to write this review). I was deeply impressed and I look forward to my next visit. A big thank you to Parwane (resort manager), Reginald (executive chef) and his team, Urs (F&B manager) and his team and of course the great crew from the dive center: Philipp, Yuki, Samyr, Sandra and all others whose name I unfortunately cannot recall for making this an unforgettable experience. And a last thing: The house-Muraka rum is definitely worth trying for sundowners.…

"Villas over the water are romantic and provide great access to the reef but can be noisy at night with the waves hitting the poles"Read full review
