17 years ago, on 27^th of January 2003, Mirihi Island Resort was officially opened by the then-President of Maldives.

Ever since that auspicious day, Mirihi has been one of the most unique resorts in Maldives — a barefoot heaven for those who love to enjoy the tranquility and serenity of a faraway tropical island. Without a nightlife of loud music and partying, without a television in the room distracting you from the natural vistas right in front of you, without a manmade pool to keep you away from spending time exploring 6 km of the island’s own magnificent house reef, without the noise pollution of motorised water sports or without having to wear shoes at all, Mirihi has been and still is dedicated in providing our guests with a deserted island experience, yet with all the luxuries of a five star boutique hotel, to enjoy the natural beauty of the Maldives in all its splendor.

Our 17^thanniversary was celebrated by the Team with the annual football match against a neighboring hotel and of course a night of partying with local celebrity singers and dancers. This year we invited Holiday Island Resort to play against us. After a 10-day professional training session with the most decorated footballer and coach of the Maldives, Kuda Moosa, we won the game with a score of 19 to 01.
