Niyama Private Islands Maldives

房間很大，設施齊全，免費飲用水，咖啡機，冰淇淋，爆米花。庭院衞生間佈置的很有情調。別墅步行不到1分鐘即可在自家沙灘椅上曬太陽或下海游泳。主要是一房一管家，服務很周到，處處照顧客人體驗。島上各處的服務人員態度超奈斯，基本是有求必應。有機會再去。

Everyone in Niyama is out to make our stay a memorable one. We can’t find a sub-par serving crew, nor any major areas for improvements. We’ve dropped many other shortlisted options for Niyama after realising this would be 10 years since we last visited Maldives. And Niyama back then only got a 4-star from me, perhaps because they’re still new. We’d hoped for improvements and they didn’t disappoint this time. We chose a different room type this round and we love it. It’s been perhaps recently renovated. Spacious, new and modern furnishings, almost too big a space in the bathroom, and overall nicely decorated and clean. We chose the Fullboard option and had too much to eat the entire trip. For the fussy eater, they’re always ready to whip up a meal specially for you. Sightings of animals in nature is an important KPI for me this trip as I’d like my child (now 14yo) to experience that with us. We didn’t get to spot many last trip when my child was only 4yo. So besides sea turtles which we didn’t get to spot during our choppy snorkel trip, we pretty much saw what we’ve hoped for right on the island. Just to name a few: Numerous black tips up close, “rounded” rays, “triangular” rays (baby manta?), puffer fish, box fish, schools of various types of fishes, squid, “needle” fish, sea cucumbers, loads of crabs and hermit crabs, flying foxes/fruit bats, heron, etc. I’ve specifically shortlisted resorts that provide bicycles for guests and we love to be able to cycle around the island to explore at our own pace. Weather this time round was more stormy compared to our last few trips to Maldives. Climate change is real. We’ve always travelled between May-July but had more sunny days previously. This trip was about 50/50 sun and rain but it didn’t bother us much since the times it rained or was stormy, we’re done with our activities and back in our pavilion. The slightly overcast skies when it wasn’t raining also meant we didn’t get too sunburn. Our only hesitation when I think of returning to Niyama is the seaplane ride… 10yrs back, we chose it for my then 4yo child to experience it. This time too, since he didn’t have much recollection of the ride back then. I didn’t enjoy it. I’d thought it would be a direct stop at Niyama like the last round but it’s not. We had to stopover at another island before arriving at Niyama. And upon arriving at Niyama, we didn’t get to land straight at the jetty like the last time (platform was destroyed during a recent storm) and had to land on a floating platform in the middle of the sea (more bobbing after the bobbing seaplane ride) before a speedboat took us to Niyama jetty. Vice versa for the ride back. So yep. Some phobia to overcome here, for someone with chronic giddiness issues. So perhaps domestic flight will be an option next time, assuming we won’t spend much more time transiting for flights etc. Hospitality is tops as expected from all the reviews here - not overly formal-luxurious, but friendly and w

Wow my friend and I went on a 19 day trip to this beautiful island to celebrate her 60th birthday from the moment we arrived we were in awe of this beautiful island it is spotless and so well maintained our room was beautiful All the staff were lovely and over the days we stayed there we got to know some of them very well they were all so friendly remembering our drinks order and where we liked to sit and the wonderful chef Ashish who remembered my friends order of French toast every morning without her having to ask! We would like to mention staff members Zim , Fundi ,Kannan and Sky who we chatted to us regularly and made us very welcome Every Wednesday we were invited to a cocktail evening and this was a great chance to meet the general manager and find out about the resort and enjoy some music We went on the sunset dolphin trip which is a must do saw loads of dolphins and a beautiful sunset Spent Easter there and had lovely egg plate display sent to our room -delicious Before we booked we hadn’t realised there was a children’s club on the island but it was lovely to see children in the evening in the restaurants The food was excellent and so much choice our favourite restaurant was Blu It really is an island where you can fully relax and we hope we can return

This was a bucket list holiday. But after visiting .... we have popped it back on the bucketklist to go again! I feel like I could go on forever but this is already a VERY long review.... so I am popping this at the top of my post so that if you do not get to the end, you know this - Niyama is absolutely amazing and if you are think about going stop reading this review and BOOK YOUR TRIP TO NIYAMA! This is more than we would usually spend on a 1 week holiday. I was a little worried that the resort and the Maldives in general could not live up to my expectations (and all the insta-pics). Well Niyama blew my expectations out of the (crystal blue) water! I'm not sure where to start but I will try to capture it all. SERVICE: The best I have ever received. From the moment Niyama / Manta Air took over ... we felt like royalty (on that note - pay the extra for the Seaplane. I can't stress this enough). There is not much you need to ask for because everything on the Island is so considered, but the few things we needed to request were attentioned seamlessly. Example: I locked myself out my villa and moment later ... a key was dropped off while I was in my spa-treatment and I was notified as soon as my massaged ended that it was taken care of. STAFF: Everyone of them are genuinely happy to assist you. I didn't note them all, but I have many honourable mentions: Shafeeg, Riza, Rocky, Fadi, Hameed, Andrea, Yolk, Dan, Rhys, and Moomin. You made our experience so much more special. FOOD: Our first dinner there was "Mexican Night" and it is the only (very small) complaint I have about the resort. This buffet meal was average and I was concerned about the rest of our stay. I can only assume they were having an off night If this meal was a 5/10 ... every one after was a 9-10/10. The absolute stand out meals were: - The Malabar fish curry at Dune bar. My fave meal of the whole trip. - The Arabian night buffet. Every option I tried (and I tried a lot) were exceptional. Especially the chilli Labneh balls and the Kibbeh. - The Foul Medames. I had never tried these before. I crave this dish now I am home. - The breakfast Hoppers. That coconut Sambal was "Chef's Kiss" RESTAURANTS: Over and above the food, the environemnt and ambience of every restaurant is so diverse and spectacular. And the fact they are scattered all over the island makes you really feel like you are somewhere completely different every night. So important so you don't feel a sea-of-sameness after a week on an island. We did wish we had done Edge (the restaurant in the middle of the Ocean) as a lunch instead of dinner. Once the sun set, it was lost on you that you were in such an amazing setting. Our host suggested the seafood platter for 1 could feed 2. He was right. We couldn't finish it. And we were grateful for the tip. INCLUSIONS: Like I said, this holiday was a bit of a stretch budget-wise for us. And I was SO impressed at how many things you could do without spending more money: A l

Niyama Resort in the Maldives was an exceptional experience. The two islands are beautifully lush with tall palms and pristine beaches. The dining options, like Tribal and Nest, provided impressive culinary experiences. The underwater restaurant, SUBSIX, was visually stunning. The villa was spacious, well-designed, and offered excellent sleep quality with its ability to block out light completely. What stood out the most was our personal assistant, Yulia. Her attention to detail, enthusiasm for the resort, and genuine hospitality were truly outstanding - among the best service I've encountered in the Maldives. Niyama is a paradise, and Yulia exemplified the resort's commitment to excellence. Also shoutout to Haudy at the airport, Anne and Subira at the restaurants for their genuine service.

Our stay at Niyama was nothing short of exceptional. We have visited many resorts, and Niyama really did have us hooked! The two islands are so pure and lush with some of the most beautiful greenery we have seen and very tall coconut palms. This resort really embraces the real Maldives. The beaches are glorious and the sand is powder-soft. Dining highlights included Tribal and my personal favourite, Nest. Every dinner at Niyama felt like an impressive 'experience'. We also popped down to see the underwater restaurant, SUBSIX which left us open-mouthed with the beauty and subaquatic experience. The villa was spacious and chic, with huge bathrooms and quirky touches. I'm someone who struggles to sleep unless a room is totally dark, and Niyama was excellent in this regard. Among the many wonderful things that we loved about Niyama, a true shining star was our Thakuru (personal assistant) Yulia. She exudes infectious energy, incredible attention to detail, forward-thinking, sincere passion and enthusiasm for the resort, and is just a wonderful human being. We felt very lucky to be looked after by her. We can honestly say, without a doubt, she is one of the best hosts that we have encountered in the Maldives. Thank you Yulia, and to all at Niyama for making it such a true paradise.

We had the best time in Niyama. Every detail was well managed. Islands are beautiful. Waves are great and consistent. Food is very good and there are plenty of options. Dinning at the Edge and Nest was so good. Everything we needed was warmly provided by our Thakuru, Gia. We are dreaming about coming back!

Niyama takes your breath away! It definitely has the wow factor. We stayed in the water villa which was just mind blowing. The view is spectacular, the jungle roads are beautiful and we really enjoyed Tribal and The Net restaurants. Faru was very helpful and made our stay very enjoyable - thank you very much for being very responsive to all our needs. This was our first trip to the Maldives and I cannot wait to come back to experience it again.

Great hotel and service. Amazing food and amazing people everybody was so kind and helpful, and the best guest service by our guy and now friend Shanun. The people there has a great experience in service and public relations. People from all the world! You should visit Maldives and specially this hotel
