Having just returned from a fabulous week at Niyam...

Having just returned from a fabulous week at Niyama - I literally cannot say enough good things about the place! It is more than a resort it s a life experience.
The twin island concept, food, accommodation and the service were simply exceptional. The resort caters to every type of person the honeymooner, the active type, the solo traveller and families without it feeling biased towards any one kind of clientele. There isn t time to articulate all the good things about the service at Niyama. The attention to detail is fantastic and this really comes from the top down Didi the GM has to really be applauded for his management of the resort, so much time has clearly been invested in giving each and everyone a personalised and bespoke experience - from the way everyone at the resort knew my name and preferences but also the extra mile that the staff went to to make this an experience of a lifetime for me. My Thakuru made such an effort to take me snorkelling for the first time (it was almost like having a good friend go with you!). These are memories I will never forget. Special thanks go to Didi (GM), Shahula (my thakuru simply amazing), Adam Smith ( great expert on marine life) & Romzee/Ranjith for the Yoga!
The facilities were great and varied I don t think you could ever be bored! The menu of watersports and activities on offer were great! And if you are looking for a relaxing trip well the Lime Spa with those fabulous blue views breathtaking! The food options were fantastic, so many different cuisines and concepts from the Asian treehouse (Nest) to the more fine dining Edge.
The rooms were simply the best I have stayed in, each room category has something different to offer and you really cannot wrong. The Beach Studio with pool was absolutely stunning (it had the most amazing bathroom!) whilst the Water Studio had the quintessential Maldives View and access to the Lagoon.
This review probably does not do the resort justice, but as someone who enjoys luxury travel, Niyama has set the bar very high and I cannot imagine staying anywhere else on my return to the Maldives
Thankyou Didi and all the great staff at Niyama for making my stay so special, I hope to be back very soon!!
