What Our Guests Say

Rated Travellers' Choice on TripAdvisor

Extraordinarily Fantastic Experience

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!

Wonderful

My husband and I stayed at The Westin Maldives Miriandhoo Resort for our honeymoon and to celebrate his upcoming birthday, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. The resort is absolutely beautiful, and our villa was modern, spacious, and incredibly comfortable (especially the bed). What truly made our stay exceptional, however, was the people. Every member of the staff we met was genuinely warm, kind, attentive, and supportive. Their sincere hospitality made us feel welcomed from the moment we arrived until the day we departed, and they played a huge part in making our honeymoon so memorable. We left with wonderful memories and have already recommended The Westin Maldives Miriandhoo Resort to our friends and family. Thank you for an unforgettable stay!

The Westin Maldives Miriandhoo Resort

Regular price₹ 384,700
/
Double occupancy, 4 nights, half board, return seaplane, all taxes included except TCS · book by 15 Sep 2026 · stays 25 Aug to 25 Dec 2026

Two deadlines, and the near one is 1 September. The Paradise Escape package every price above is built on has to be booked by 15 September. Separately, December stays carry a 20% early bird that closes on 1 September, worth ₹70,000 on five nights in the beach villa. If December is what you want, that is a two-day decision.

Baa Atoll, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, thirty minutes by seaplane. Sixty-nine villas, every one with a private pool. These prices are India-market only, with the seaplane and the green tax for two already inside them.

What this actually costs

Every figure above is two adults sharing, with the return seaplane and the green tax already in the price, along with every other tax. Nothing further is payable for the room, the flights or the tax.

  • Book full board and the resort upgrades you to all inclusive at no charge. On the beach villa that step costs ₹61,700 on four nights and ₹108,000 on seven over half board, and it buys a plan that otherwise costs ₹82,400 and ₹144,100 more. Do not buy the all-inclusive line directly.
  • Two children up to 15.99 stay and eat free. Eleven is the usual cut-off in the Maldives. Five nights in the Deluxe Beach Villa is ₹474,200 for a couple and ₹544,000 with two children, so the pair adds ₹69,800. They pay their transfer and the green tax and nothing else.
  • Split the stay and save. Two nights on the beach then two overwater is ₹407,500 to 30 September, against ₹430,400 for four straight overwater nights. It is not on the dropdown, so ask us.
  • Three nights is bookable on everything except the Deluxe Beach Villa, also off the dropdown: ₹320,900 on the beach and ₹355,200 overwater, to 30 September.

Who this isn’t for

Anyone travelling with a child who wants the cheapest beach villa. The 140 sqm Beach Villa Pool takes two adults and an infant and nothing else. The resort keeps a twin-bedded Family Beach Villa Pool at the same price that does take two children, and a Family Deluxe a tier up. Ask us for those by name.

Anyone landing late, because the seaplane flies in daylight and the domestic connection is not guaranteed the same day. Anyone counting on Marriott Bonvoy points, which rates booked this way do not earn. And anyone who cannot commit by 15 September.

Before you book

  • Thirty minutes by seaplane, daylight only, with the resort's own lounge at the terminal and check-in done there. The alternative is a 25 minute domestic flight to Dharavandhoo and a 15 minute speedboat, and the resort takes ₹14,400 off any stay for two who go that way.
  • Free cancellation up to seven days before arrival on the dates covering this page, fourteen days in high season. Inside that window it is the full stay, and nothing comes back for leaving early. The resort also holds a refundable USD 200 per villa per night at check-in against incidentals.
  • December is priced separately and the step is steep: 24% in the beach villa, 53% in the Heavenly Overwater Villa. Beyond 25 December we build the festive dates by hand.

Send us your dates and who is travelling. We will price two or three villas with the flights and taxes inside the number, confirm the full board upgrade in writing, name the family villa if you need it, and apply the December early bird if you can decide in time. Message our Maldives team on WhatsApp or send an enquiry.

Getting there

Route Seaplane
Journey 30 min, airport to island
Last arrival that works 15:00

Land at Velana after 15:00 and the last transfer of the day will have gone, which means a night in Malé before you reach the island.

There is a second way in. Domestic flight to Dharavandhoo + speedboat, about 25 min flight + 15 min speedboat, for arrivals at Velana up to 16:20.

The Westin keeps its own lounge at the seaplane terminal and does resort check-in there. Flights are Trans Maldivian and timed to international arrivals, so the wait can run long.

Transfer details last checked August 2026. We re-check yours against your actual ticket before we quote. See what your flight can reach →

Miriandhoo — Where Renewal Begins

Sleep Above the Ocean

Wake to the sound of gentle waves beneath your villa floor. Our overwater sanctuaries hover above a turquoise lagoon, where the Indian Ocean stretches endlessly to the horizon. Step from your private pool deck directly into warm, crystalline waters — and let the world dissolve.

Dine at the Edge of the World

The Pearl, our overwater Japanese restaurant, serves elevated omakase-inspired cuisine as the sun melts into the sea. From barefoot Asian street food at Hawker to golden-hour cocktails at Sunset Bar — every meal at Miriandhoo is a moment to savour.

Swim with Mantas at Hanifaru Bay

Just 18 kilometres away lies Hanifaru Bay — one of the planet's most extraordinary marine spectacles. Join our AQUA Dive Center for a guided snorkel with manta rays and whale sharks in a UNESCO-protected feeding ground. A memory that will last a lifetime.

Renew, Body & Soul

The Heavenly Spa by Westin offers five treatment rooms — including a couple's suite with a Jacuzzi and panoramic ocean views. Begin each morning with sunrise yoga on the deck, and end it with a floating breakfast in your private pool. This is what renewal feels like.
