About Destination Dining

Destination Dining moves the table to a setting of your choice. The resort lists a family barbecue in your private gardens, a romantic evening at sea aboard a dhoni, or a meal on the sands of a deserted island.

On the beach the picture is toes in the sand at sunset, with a degustation menu inspired by the ocean and a freshly served espresso martini. Advance reservation is required, and the experience is subject to weather and season.

In the resort’s words

Destination Dining at Niyama is the romantic, off-restaurant meal: a beach sitting with toes in the sand at sunset, a tasting menu drawn from the ocean, and an espresso martini poured to the table. The same page also offers a gourmet picnic on a secluded island and a beach meal beside a bonfire.

Part of the dining roster at Niyama Private Islands, Dhaalu Atoll, this private dining restaurant runs a bespoke destination dining format · private gardens, dhoni or deserted-island settings setting.
