Few words about Niyama Hotel: Amazing Villas, Amazing Service, Great Location ! The hotel is unbeatable in every aspect. Muaz and Tom ,our room attendants, offered us an impeccable service. Next the wonderful and always smiling AO from the spa made our stay joyful. Was an honor for us to take classes with Mr Martin, the Martial Art Master. We highly recommend him. Great experience ! As to our thakaru Sameen, we're very grateful for how he treated us. He took care of us as a family, always with a personal touch. Very professional and committed to his job as a butler. Next time we're certainly ask for his service !

Paradise in Paradise
Our trip was planned as a "vacation of a lifetime," and it was everything expected plus more. The island is gorgeous with pristine Indian Ocean waters abound, and world-class service. The villas were amazing, spacious, and extraordinarily clean. The staff at Niyam was absolutely wonderful and you could feel the sense of service in their delivery. What was really nice was the opportunity to lay back and relax, or be very active with the many activities available on the island. We would come back in a heart beat and highly recommend this resort to anyone, families with children, adults, singles, anyone attempting to escape the craziness in our world.

10/10 Exceptional

The Maldives, in general, is absolutely spectacular. What makes Niyama special is the staff. The level of hospitality is really unbelievable. MANY people really stood out, but our Thakaru (Mahey), the Spa staff (Tara and May), the ENTIRE staff at Epicure (Kudy, Asso, and everyone else) really stood out as being the best of the best. The only criticism I have is that we had one service issue at one of the restaurants. It was minor and was corrected easily. The really impressive thing is how eager the management is to receive constructive feedback. They even have a cocktail reception once a week for that specific purpose. The food was outstanding (make sure to book Sub 6 in ADVANCE. Nest too. The facilities were GREAT. I initially didn't care about having a pool in an over-water villa, but I was WRONG. . .we used it multiple times per day. On the excursions. . .we saw dolphins within 30 seconds of leaving the lagoon and we saw 4 turtles on the turtle quest. When we go back, we will do far more excursions. We are even considering getting SCUBA certified

8/10 Very good

Das Hotel ist sehr sauber und gut organisiert. Leider, könnte es für diese Preiskategorie wieder einmal renoviert werden. Ärgerlich war auch der Preis im Spa. Das alles sehr hochpreisig ist, weiß man im Vorhinein und ist völlig ok aber 530$ für 60 min Relaxmassage für zwei ? Ist etwas übertrieben...

Cuidado
Quarto completamente mofado e com cheiro muito ruim. Travesseiro com odor de mofo. Comida ruim a razoável. Esse hotel não é cinco estrelas. O ponto alto foi o atendimento da nossa hostess, Erin, que fez de tudo para nos servir da melhor forma possível.
