Dining

• Tribal — African, Central and South American · Jungle setting centred on open fire

• The Surf Shack — International light bites · Beside the Vodi surf break

  Catch the vibe, not just the waves. Tucked by the surf break, the Shack serves up surf-inspired cocktails, stunning ocean views, and laid-back island vibes from day till dusk.

• Food Play — Maldivian, international, Asian and Mediterranean · Small-group hosted kitchen

  Food Play is Niyama's cooking class, held in the kitchen rather than a dining room. Guests cook with the chefs, eat what they made for lunch, and leave with the recipes and a spice box so the dishes can be cooked again at home.

• Took Took Street Food on the Beach — Asian street food · Mobile beach dining concept

  Took Took is Niyama's once-a-week beach dinner of Asian street food, grilled over coals by the resort's chefs. Bamboo teepees hung with fairy lights and hurricane lamps stand over armchairs on the sand, and the meal is served as the sun goes down.

• Subsix — Nikkei · Six metres below the ocean, reached from the offshore Edge complex

  Descending down into the depths of the ocean, the surreal awaits you at Subsix, where colours morph and rainbows of butterflyfish are your dining companions. Here, the new and world’s first underwater Nikkei tasting menu is presented by the Executive Chef, with each course as surreal as the setting.

• Nest — Asian · Deep in the jungle with tables woven through the banyan canopy

  Quite possibly the Maldives’ most adventurous epicurean experience, Nest is reborn, a hideaway deep in the jungle where you can dine in the treetops. Weaving your way through banyan vines to your chosen table, you’ll enjoy flavours of the exotique – fiery Japanese teppanyaki, the spice of Southeast Asia – and avant-garde cocktails.

• The Deli — International · Grab-and-go café

  The Deli is Niyama's grab-and-go café, open daily from late morning until late afternoon. Guests take brewed coffee, smoothies, antipasti, panini, ciabatta, and pastries, or ask the barista for a milkshake made with house ice cream, frozen yoghurt, or fresh fruit.

• Edge — Modern fine dining · Half a kilometre offshore and accessible only by boat

  Modern fine dining, set half a kilometre out in the ocean and accessible only by boat. Whisked by speedboat. Caressed by the breeze beneath the sweeping white curves of the canopy.

• Dine-In — International · Delivered to the guest’s villa or pavilion

  Dine-In is Niyama's around-the-clock in-villa menu, drawing dishes from the island's nine restaurants. A floating breakfast can be taken over the water or on the beach, and children's plates can be served beside the pool.

• Blu — Mediterranean · Poolside on Play Island

  Blu is Niyama's family restaurant on the beach and beside the pool. Mornings run to smoothies, juices, crostini and eggs cooked to order or built your own way. Lunch and dinner turn to Mediterranean salads, seafood, pasta, pizza and a few Asian plates, with a poolside ice cream counter attached.

• Dune — Light bites and drinks · Open-air pool and beach setting

  Bringing chic to casual is reimagined beach bar Dune, one of our favourite places to chill. Drinks by the pool, an authentic Maldivian curry under the shade of coconut trees, shisha while watching the sun set…you are free to indulge here on your own terms, with a new and expanded menu designed purely to tempt.

• Destination Dining — Private dining · Private gardens, dhoni or deserted-island settings

  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.

• Epicure — International · Casual-chic poolside setting on Chill Island

  Epicure is Niyama's international restaurant beside the infinity pool, moving from a buffet breakfast to themed dinners. The morning kitchen does pastries, fruit salads made to order and herb omelettes, and the drinks list includes 18 teas and 260 wines.
