For those seeking an escape from the ordinary, Niyama’s multi-faceted overhaul offers an irresistible proposition. From exquisitely redesigned villas that redefine comfort to avant-garde dining concepts that tantalize the senses, and a pervasive ethos of unscripted living, THIS IS NIYAMA is poised to become the ultimate luxury destination for travelers seeking to write their own island story.

Redefining Island Living: A Sanctuary of Style and Serenity

At the heart of Niyama’s transformation lies a meticulous redesign of its stunning accommodations. The resort’s villas, spread across the twin islands of Play and Chill, have been reborn with a lighter, more sophisticated palette, exuding an effortless elegance that seamlessly blends with the natural surroundings. This isn't just about aesthetics; it's about enhancing the guest experience, providing expansive interiors that invite relaxation and reconnection.

Beach Villas, those spacious playgrounds nestled amidst the sandy coves, now glow with the warm, inviting colors of a Maldivian sunset. Every detail has been considered to enhance comfort and convenience. Imagine waking up to the gentle lapping of waves, with high-tech amenities at your fingertips – from premium espresso machines to delightful popcorn makers and state-of-the-art entertainment systems, all controlled with the touch of a button. Outdoor bathing, a quintessential Maldivian indulgence, has been elevated, allowing guests to flit effortlessly between indoor serenity and the invigorating embrace of nature.

For those drawn to the mesmerizing expanse of the Indian Ocean, the Overwater Villas have been transformed into ethereal sanctuaries. Swirling in captivating shades of blue and turquoise, they seamlessly merge with the sky and ocean, creating a boundless sense of immersion. Floor-to-ceiling glass doors open directly onto private sundecks, inviting guests to bask in the sun, dive into the crystal-clear lagoon, or simply lose themselves in the breathtaking panoramic views. The thoughtful design ensures a harmonious flow between indoor and outdoor living, embodying Niyama's dedication to boundless freedom.

A Culinary Journey: From Treetops to Ocean Depths

Niyama's reputation for innovative dining experiences has always been a cornerstone of its appeal, and THIS IS NIYAMA takes this to exhilarating new heights. The resort’s acclaimed restaurants have undergone significant enhancements, offering not just meals but truly immersive culinary adventures.

Perched six meters above the jungle floor, Nest continues to be an avant-garde marvel, now redesigned and relandscaped to fully immerse guests in the wild, lush environment. As dusk settles, the jungle comes alive with the faint glow of lights and the captivating call of birds, setting the stage for an extraordinary gastronomic journey. Here, the sizzle of fiery Japanese teppanyaki intertwines with the aromatic spices of Southeast Asia, creating a symphony of flavors that is both adventurous and authentic.

A true highlight of the THIS IS NIYAMA transformation is the unveiling of a world-first at Subsix, the iconic underwater playground. Descending six meters below the ocean's surface, guests are now treated to the world’s first underwater Nikkei tasting experience. Each of the five courses is as surreal and artfully presented as the setting itself, with corals dappled by sunlight and vibrant reef sharks and sea turtles gracefully circling overhead. By day, Subsix promises an unparalleled culinary immersion, and by night, it transforms into an exclusive underwater nightclub, a truly unique offering in the Maldives.

For a more casual yet equally chic experience, Dune has been reimagined as the ultimate beach chill spot. By day, it offers stylish lounging by the poolside, accompanied by a new menu that spotlights the fiery essence of Maldivian cuisine. As the sun dips below the horizon, Dune transforms into a vibrant hub for cocktails and shisha, providing the perfect backdrop for unwinding and soaking in the island's relaxed rhythm.

And for the free spirits seeking a more vibrant, energetic atmosphere, the Surf Shack, nestled on the very western tip of the Play island, has been expanded. Here, the exhilarating roar of the surf, the infectious beats of the DJ, the warmth of spiced rum, and the camaraderie of fellow adventurers all converge to create moments of pure magic and uninhibited joy.

Beyond the Villa: Unleashing a Renewed Sense of Freedom

The philosophy behind THIS IS NIYAMA extends far beyond physical renovations. It’s an invitation to embrace a renewed sense of freedom, to explore, play, and connect with kindred spirits and nature on your terms. As Hafidh Al Busaidy, General Manager of Niyama Private Islands Maldives, articulates, "At Niyama, we want our guests to feel free, to explore, play, and connect with kindred spirits and nature on their terms.
