Niyama Private Islands Maldives

This is my second time staying at this resort, and once again, it exceeded all expectations. The island itself is stunning and spacious, with plenty of activities to keep you entertained, it has everything you need for a perfect getaway. What truly makes this resort stand out is the service. The cleanliness, the attention to detail, and above all, the friendliness of the staff made my stay incredibly comfortable and personalized. A special shout-out to our wonderful butler (Shafeeg) who made sure we had everything we needed throughout our stay. He was attentive, kind, and truly elevated the experience. I also want to highlight the amazing staff at the restaurants (Kaisa, Dewa, and Suliman) who always greeted us with warm smiles and great service. The spa team (Aroun, May, and Rinzin) were incredibly skilled and welcoming. And (Imran) the coconut killer 😂 he’s super friendly you get a coconut and a comedy show at once. And I can’t forget the resident doctor, who was not only highly professional and knowledgeable, but also very understanding and kind. It’s rare to find a place that gets everything right from the island’s beauty to the people who make it feel like home. Highly recommended, and I’ll definitely be returning again.

Our current stay at Niyama Private Islands has been nothing short of perfection, thanks in large part to the incredible team who made our family holiday so memorable! From the moment we arrived, we were treated with unparalleled hospitality. Imthy, our Thakuru at Niyama Private Islands, deserves a resounding five-star review! From the moment we arrived, his service was exceptional. He anticipated our needs before we even voiced them, always with a warm smile and genuine eagerness to help. His recommendations for dining and activities were spot-on, and his attention to detail made our stay truly unforgettable. He went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and happiness, creating a personalized experience that felt both luxurious and incredibly personal. Imthy is a true asset to Niyama, and his exceptional service elevated our already amazing vacation to a whole new level. We wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone seeking an idyllic and flawlessly executed escape! The housekeeping team (Edda, Muneer, & Bakuru) kept our villas spotless and impeccably maintained. The spa therapists (May, Tirtha, Desak& Esther) provided truly rejuvenating treatments. The level of attention to details was absolutely amazing! Arun and Gill (IV Nurse) and Dr. Hassan provided outstanding medical care when needed, ensuring our peace of mind. Yulia, Isar, and Yagu provided seamless buggy assistance. Beyond the core services, the entire team went above and beyond. Toha (artist), Shaiban, and Charaka (Movie under the stars) created truly unforgettable experiences. Lasse (surf), Felippe (tennis), Iku (snap photography), and Kaique (surf photography) were all professional and made our activities incredibly enjoyable. My both daughters, Mikaella and Nicole, enjoyed diving/surfing/tennis lessons which were fantastic! The diving team (David, Natalia, Achyuth, & Aneel), Musif (flyboard), and the excursions team (Dot, Endheri, & Pablo) provided exceptional experiences on and in the water! The culinary team was equally impressive: Rahman (Teppanyaki chef), Sasha and Dewa (Epicure), Faaiz, Kaisa, and Ann (Tribal), Mita and Adi (Nest), Ayu (Blu), Shaffaf (Subsix), and Imran (Coconut Guru) all delivered delicious and memorable dining experiences!!! Every single person we interacted with at Niyama demonstrated a commitment to excellence and genuine warmth. This was a truly exceptional holiday, and we extend our heartfelt thanks to each and every member of this incredible team. We highly recommend Niyama Private Islands for a flawless and unforgettable Maldivian experience❤️ Five stars aren't enough!💥🔥

Yuliya was incredible. We have never felt so welcomed and such genuine attentive service. The resort is stunning - a must do in the Maldives, particularly the over water villas but our stay was made magical by Yuliya. Our kids are telling their friends about her when they are asked about our holiday. Thank you for everything Yuliya, from the Trotmans 🫶🏼
