Just outstanding. Idyllic setting and consistently helpful and friendly staff. I have previously stayed at (and reviewed) Cocoa Island and Baros Island and Mirihi is at least equal to those two.
We stayed five nights in the two bedroom over water bungalow and did a whole lot of activities including the whale shark seeker excursion, manta excursion, spa treatments, private outdoor cinema, and curry and wine tasting evening.
The highlights were undoubtedly:
1. Curry and wine tasting evening: Even if you have paid full board, don’t miss this. Seriously, just do it. It is simply divine. Fernando Is a world-class curry chef and Urs knows more about wine than is healthy for someone so young.
2. Private outdoor cinema: We watched Grease and had a blast singing along and dancing under the stars.
Typical of all three Maldivian resorts I have stayed at, every little detail was thought out and nothing was too much trouble. If you’re a foodie, Mirihi has a better range of food that the other resorts I have stayed at and it is expertly prepared and presented.
Of course this sort or quality and service comes with a price tag, but OMG it is so worth it!
The only aspects that were a little disappointing were completely beyond the control of the Mirihi team (the weather could have been better and we didn’t see a whale shark).
I need to mention the reef. If you are looking for pretty coral, Mirihi may not be the resort for you. The reef is quite badly damaged, storm damage presumably, and nearly all of the coral is dead. However, the marine life is varied, colourful and abundant. We saw sharks, turtles, rays and uncountable fish species.
If you are looking for a top shelf Maldivian experience, it would be hard to look further than Mirihi.

From the moment we were greeted off the sea plane, I knew I had made the right choice of resorts. For my first trip to the Maldives, I researched a lot. Priorities were snorkeling, excellent service and food, and relaxed atmosphere. Mirihi delivered. The employees are extremely attentive. Everyone we encountered was so friendly and helpful. I mentioned to them I am vegetarian and every night as soon as I approached the buffet all the meatless options were highlighted for me. I ate a little too well. Room attendant was a pleasure to talk to and even took the time to point out wildlife I would have missed while walking from my villa. The scenery is amazing and attention here is devoted to the simple but incredible beauty of the island rather than bathtubs and pools. To be honest, I considered these things a trade off while comparing resorts. However, at no point during my stay did I regret not having these amenities. Seems unnecessary and distracting in a place like this, especially if you’re traveling as far as we did. Snorkeling was never boring, the reef is large and every day I found a new section to explore. The sharks are very friendly! Do pay attention to tides, as other reviews have mentioned, which are listed in compendium for reference as certain areas can get shallow. We found it very easy to locate deeper alternative areas to access drop off though, even during low tide. Spa visit was fantastic. Dive instructor was so kind, patient and fun to talk with. A big plus for me as I am a beginner, refresher dive was full of interesting life and even a wreck on the house reef. I enjoyed the extra space and private setting in the beach villa. Two outdoor seating areas. One under trees and one on the beach. Very close to the snorkeling channel. OW was incredible as well watching the fish swim and all the stars at night on the deck, very relaxing. We had one of each. Thank you Mirihi for taking such good care of my mom and I! We had a lovely vacation. I would definitely return here.

True paradise on earth. Pristine setting, luxury accomodation, attentive staff, great snorkelling lagoon (saw schools of fish, sharks and turtles there all the time) and spectacular food. I wish i could live there!! Oh and absolutely no mosquitoes which was a bonus compared to other places!!
Was there for our honeymoon and can't wait to go back one day <3
