Niyama Private Islands Maldives has created an extravagant video showing its workforce come together to say goodbye to its last guests for the season.

The resort announced earlier this month that it would suspend operations following travel restrictions by the Maldivian government in light of the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic. The property paused bookings from April 4, lasting until June 30.

“We at Niyama realise that these are uncertain times for travel and hope the environment improves in the very near future. We hope our guest travels bring them back to the Maldives where Nature’s playground will be waiting to welcome them with a warm heart,” a statement read.

Niyama offers more than a luxury retreat in the Maldives. Going beyond conventional concepts of lavish accommodation, sumptuous cuisines, and lavish services, Niyama presents every visitor with myriad opportunities to create their own exceptional island experience.

With twin islands Play and Chill, Niyama offers you the true luxury of choice, with everything expected from an island resort and so much more.

Chill is true to its name. You can discover new depths of relaxation at the Drift Spa, or take in a movie under the stars at the outdoor cinema. Just off the coast, enjoy a fine dining experience at Edge accessible only by speedboat, while Subsix invites you the world’s finest underwater seafood restaurant and night club.

Play provides delightful diversions for those looking for more active pursuits. On the water, you can kayak around the islands or discover why Niyama is amongst the hottest surfing destinations. Bicyclists can explore the island at their own pace, perhaps lured by the aromas from the chef’s spice gardens.
