Dhoni Mighili
Hotel Overview
Dhoni Mighili's
personalised philosophy caters to elite guests' desires, whether
midnight champagne of a special vintage, an afternoon of spa
treatments, diving with sea turtles, sunset fishing, or deserted island
snorkelling.
For ultimate privacy, the entire island can be booked for
exclusive use.
Location
Dhoni Mighili is in the Ari Atoll of the Maldives, to
the southwest of the capital, Malé. Your Maldives experience can begin
with a breathtakingly gorgeous journey to Dhoni Mighili on a 30-minute seaplane
flight over the necklace of atolls glistening in the Indian Ocean. Or, of
course, the most decadent way to arrive would be aboard your own private Dhoni
where you can revel in sunshine and the sensation of the sea gently spraying
against your skin to get you straight into the holiday mode that you have been
longing for.
Rooms
Dhoni Slamber
There are only six luxuriously appointed, air-conditioned Dhonis, each
partnered with its own intimate Beach Bungalow featuring outdoor
bathroom and waterfall showers.
Embodying the grace and romance of the
Maldives, these 65-feet Maldivian sailboats,
handcrafted by local artisans, have both the traditional ivory sail and
a motor. Sail or cruise – the choice is yours. The bow of the Dhoni is
inviting with comfortable day beds overflowing with cushions to laze in
the Maldivian sunshine.
At night your Thakuru
will transform the deck into a sensual setting for dining under the
stars while out at sea. A king size bed with Frette Linen and
goose-down duvet graces the cabins.
The Dhonis also boast SMEG kitchen appliances,
Philippe Starck bathroom fittings, a sunbathing deck and silk cushions.
In-cabin entertainment includes a 20” LCD screen with Bose DVD surround
sound theatre.
2 Luxury Dhonis with Beach Bungalow
With their elegant simplicity, these thatched bungalows are set amongst
luxuriant tropical foliage facing the pristine ocean to engage all of
the senses. The bungalows are air-conditioned, have an overhead fan,

system with an ‘Apple iPod'. The bathroom is graced with L'Occitane en
Provence products. A deep bath leads to a secluded courtyard with a
tropical shower open to the sun and stars.
4 Luxury Dhonis with Beach Bungalow and Plunge Pool
While similar to the Beach Bungalows and with the same features, these
four individual beach bungalows offer a much larger private courtyard
with your very own private freshwater plunge pool.
