A reimagined island paradise
International architecture and design firm Studio Gronda transformed an older resort in the South Ari Atoll into a stylish vacation paradise, where tropical escapism is elevated with sun-dappled sophistication. The newly unveiled V Villas Maldives at Mirihi echoes the barefoot-luxury essence of Maldivian holidays, in tune with the rhythms of island living.
Villas rooted in nature
Each of the 42 villas showcases contemporary open-air architecture, seamlessly integrating indoor and outdoor spaces. Guest sanctuaries are accented with timber floors, vaulted ceilings, natural textures and handcrafted furnishings. Accommodations range from overwater villas with private sun decks suspended above the lagoon to beachfront abodes shrouded by lush greenery, as well as multi-bedroom suites with private pools.
The Maldives, an enduring luxury magnet
The opening confirms the Maldives' lasting appeal for high-end hospitality, where demand for intimate, design-driven retreats remains strong. By converting an existing resort rather than building anew, Accor taps into a more sustainable model of luxury development, while MGallery reinforces its identity as a collection of characterful, story-rich properties.
