Forty miles by seaplane from its legendary Per AQUUM sister, Niyama Maldives is a worthy newcomer. You'll find every bit of deserted island dream fodder here – tucked-away lounge areas that invite a nap by the water, overwater bungalows, infinity pools and a turquoise-heavy color palate that blends right into the horizon – but the array of indulgent activities also attracts a hip and active crowd.

The hotel is amazing! The facilities are incredible, and the staff is the best! Special thanks to Shanun, our butler, he was so attentive and thoughtful. Also, the surf/sports team (Kayle, Meret, Sippe from Surf; Felipe from Tennis; and Ema from Scuba) were amazing and made our trip even better! Also, the best restaurant was Tribal: amazing food (made with a lot of love) and super special staff!

I honestly don’t even know where to start, everything about Niyama exceeded our wildest expectations. From the moment we arrived at Male Airport to landing on the island we were greeted by the incredible Thakuru Shanun, who gave us a personal tour and made us feel instantly at home. From that first moment onward, every experience surpassed anything I could have imagined. The service was impeccable anything we needed or wanted Shanun made it happen. All we had to do was ask and everything was booked and ready. We came to Niyama to escape work and stress, and this island along with its amazing team delivered exactly that. The food was exceptional especially at our favourite spot The Nest. Dining in this stunning treetop restaurant, paired with impeccable service from our waiter Mita is an absolute must for anyone visiting. Every aspect of the island was beyond incredible from the underwater restaurant to overwater dining experiences with unforgettable hospitality by our waiter Amila. The live music at night, water sports like jet skiing and glass kayaking and the spa treatments (including the mind-blowing IV infusion!) made every day unforgettable. A special shoutout to the happiest, most contagious smile on the island Imran the singing coconut man. Your energy and positivity made our days brighter thank you my friend, I’ll see you again. Niyama truly exceeded all expectations. This isn’t just a vacation, it’s an experience you need to witness to believe. Shanun you are incredible I’ll see you again. Thank you Niyama for an unforgettable escape. 🙏🏽

Dining at Subsix was an unforgettable experience. If you visit Niyama, I highly recommend going to Subsix. And among the many staff members, meeting Ammi was truly a blessing. Thanks to him, our time at Niyama was even more enjoyable and memorable.

We had the pleasure of being looked after by Shanun during our entire stay at the resort, and he was simply outstanding. Always friendly, always calm, and somehow always appearing exactly when you needed something. He handled every detail with care and made everything feel effortless. A genuinely super cool person who made our days in the Maldives even better. Highly recommended – thank you, Shanun!
