Make a statement at Niyama Maldives, Valentine’s Day proposal in the middle of Indian Ocean

Published

on

Propose six metres underwater in an aquatic wonderland with tropical shoals and swaying corals your witness. Celebrate with a dinner for two 500 metres out over the Indian Ocean at Edge or on a deserted sandbank. Indulge in romance with a private 3D screening of your favourite movie under the stars, complete with Champagne, canapés and popcorn.

Niyama Private Islands Maldives is the ultimate destination for once-in-a-lifetime moments. Spread over two islands connected by a single boardwalk, find private moments in perfected settings and make a bold declaration of love this Valentine’s Day.

Your chapter of sweeping romance begins with a seaplane flight over topaz waters to the southwestern atoll of Dhaalu. Choose from beach studios to run directly over powdered sands and into the ocean, or luxury overwater pavilions set out over the lagoon.

Lush Island spread over four kilometres, open waters, and quiet stretches of beach are yours to explore, and offer a distinct twist on the Maldives experience. Dine in the treetops at Nest, toast your love with champagne at underwater Subsix, or opt for a private chef dinner on a moonlit beach, your path lit by flame torches and your toes buried in the sand and lapped by waves.

Begin your journey together as you mean to continue, indulging in one-of-a-kind experiences and wild adventures. Set sail for the sunset on a traditional dhoni. Swim with manta rays and turtles. Surrender to spa bliss with couples’ journeys at Drift Spa.

Honeymoon Passions

Celebrate your engagement with time out for two, your very own island love nest surrounded by horizons of blue. Niyama’s special promotion when you stay three nights or more sets the mood with champagne, a couple’s massage overwater, a sunset cruise and a romantic picnic on a deserted sandbank. Capture your love with a professional photoshoot, complete with make-up and wardrobe.

Rates start from USD 1,942.

Niyama, a popular A-list hideaway nestled in the Dhaalu atoll, offers guests exclusive access to its twin islands – Chill and Play – conveniently connected via a picturesque bridge.

The family-friendly retreat, surrounded by picturesque shorelines and lush vegetation, has nine deluxe room categories ranging from spacious beachfront studios and one-bedroom water pavilions to three-bedroom family beach pavilions with two private pools, jacuzzi and a personal spa treatment room. With state-of-the-art amenities, in-room fridges filled with gourmet treats, a private butler plus the magic of the Maldivian island, this is the ultimate antidote to city life.

The jewel in the resort’s crown is the magnificent Crescent, a playground of five ultra-chic villas, all with private pools, for up to 14 adults and eight children. Boasting a private chef, two butlers, a housekeeper and a host of complimentary activities including a sunset dhoni cruise and movie under the stars, this over water sanctuary is the perfect paradise treat for extended families, honeymooners and discerning travellers.

With nine dining destinations, including tree house restaurant Nest and the world’s first underwater playground Subsix, guests can enhance their stay at Niyama with surreal gastronomic experiences.

Young VIPs will adore the Explorers Kids Club with its range of activities including nature expeditions around the tropical isles to MasterChef classes, while adventure-seeking teens and adults will be inspired by the resort’s excellent water sports offerings such as surfing, scuba diving and jet-skiing. Wellness devotees looking to indulge in a spot of indulgent pampering can retreat to the tranquil Drift by Niyama spa while enjoying the crystal-clear turquoise sea views from the six overwater treatment rooms.
