About this accommodation
Niyama Private Islands Maldives is a 5-star resort in the Dhaalu Atoll near Kudahuvadhoo, set across 22 hectares split between two connected islands branded Play and Chill. The property is reached by a 40-minute seaplane transfer from Velana International Airport and offers 134 beach and overwater villas, several with private pools and direct lagoon access. Dining is distinctive with six restaurants and two bars, including Subsix, an underwater venue six metres below the surface reached by boat, plus Edge, an all-glass restaurant on a stilted platform in the lagoon. Guests can choose Bed and Breakfast, Half Board, Full Board, or All Inclusive plans.
