The Westin Maldives Miriandhoo Resort

In a designated UNESCO Biosphere Reserve site lies Baa Atoll, a coral island on which the new Westin Maldives Miriandhoo Resort can be found. Featuring 70 villas and suites, 41 of which are on the island with the remaining 29 positioned over water, each at almost 200 square metres and among the largest stilted, over-sea accommodation in the region, guests will fall in love with the idyllic setting. There are three restaurants and a rooftop bar to boot, with Island Kitchen offering a considered menu of Chinese, Indian and Maldivian fare catering to those keen to eat well, while The Pearl focuses on Japanese cuisine, and Hawker features casual Asian options. Westin’s signature branded spa concept, the Heavenly Spa by Westin, makes an appearance, too, as does the 24-hour WestinWORKOUT fitness centre. And then there’s the Westin Kids Club to ensure the little ones are entertained.
