NIYAMA by Per AQUUM
Niyama is where we stayed for 4 days during our vacation to the Maldives. Since we never go anywhere in the Maldives except for the resorts, I feel that I should include an article on Niyama.
From the creator of exceptional Huvafen Fushi, comes its little sister NIYAMA, officially opened in February 2012.
Situated on the south western atoll of Dhaalu, NIYAMA is accessible by 40 minutes seaplane flight from Male. Spanning two idyllic islands of Embudhufushi and Olhuveli, NIYAMA offers more than a plain vanilla romantic Maldivian escape. Is is designed for the young, or at least young at heart. But most of all, for fun, indulgence and pampering to the next level. Incorporating traditional Maldivian elegance in naturally modern aesthetic, NIYAMA is set to the the next hottest resort in the Maldives following the footstep of it's sister resort, Huvafen Fushi.
NIYAMA features 86 studios and pavilions. The uniqueness of these studios and pavilions is the Deli In, whereby each Studio and Pavilion will be stocked with a fridge brimming with gourmet deli items, cheeses, olives, cold cuts, wines to name a few. What a thoughtful way to merge the timelines in between meals.
Edge, NIYAMA's signature restaurant appears to be floating on the ocean 500m offshore, accessible only by boat. 8 metres below is the world's first underwater music club, Subsix. International DJs. Glass walls overlook a spotlit sea. Modern moods with a flair for the marine. Just imagine partying the night away beneath the waves. Now, you see why NIYAMA is for the young or young at heart traveller! For pure indulgence in food, NIYAMA challenges the conventional with its culinary exhibitionism. Starting at Epicure for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Unwind at Fahrenheit, with a glass of champagne in hand, watching the Maldivian sunset from the rooftop is beyond words. Tribal, a modern day campsite look alike with culinary offerings influenced by the cuisines of South and East Africa, the Middle East, Asia and South America. What makes it interesting is that Tribal allows guests to observe and maintain close interaction with the Tribal Chefs. Unusual cooking preparations include hot rock grills, Asado grills and open fire. As for the wok, it is nothing unusual for me, being a Malaysian Chinese.
Fancy a massage at 2am, anyone? Not a problem at NIYAMA. Another first in the Maldives is the Lime Spa, which is open 24 hours each day offering bespoke treatments utilising and infusing indigenous holistic components from around the globe, to well, create an unique experience. Lime also include his and her beauty salons. For just in case, the nail chip, hahaha.From the creator of exceptional Huvafen Fushi, comes its little sister NIYAMA, officially opened in February 2012.

马尔代夫之旅
马尔代夫位于印度洋， 由1,190个珊瑚岛形成26个环礁 (Atoll). 整个马尔代夫的领土有99％是海洋，而马尔代夫的最高处也不过只有 2.4公尺。
 |
| 从飞机上看到的马尔代夫 |
 |
| 马尔代夫的首都，马累。林林立立的高楼，有点像新加坡的缩影 |
 |
| 跑道上的马尔代夫 |
马尔代夫个这个名字不难让人联想到蓝蓝的海天，白白的细沙还有渡蜜月的新婚夫妇。 到尔代夫最大的好处就是可以名正言顺的什么都不做，也不必为了没参观什么景点而感到内疚。一整天就轻轻松松的晒晒太阳，喝个香槟或鸡尾酒，看看书，上上网。对我这种只对喝玩感兴趣的懒人来说简直就是度假的好去处。
 |
| 这有够轻松了吧！ |
心血来潮时，可以去潜水或浮潜。真的闷了，就出海钓鱼，是拖钓啦。好动的话，就扬帆出海去。玩累了，就享受水疗。饿了，就吃，反正度假村的房间有个大冰箱，里头装满了芝士，腌肉，冰淇淋，简直就是应有尽有，24小时供应。这也是我为什么选择这家度假村的其中一个原因。当然我没告诉 The Boyfriend。我只说了度假村是今年二月才新开的，有家浮在海面上的餐厅和一家在海底8公尺的酒吧。The Boyfriend 还怕我半夜饿着（其实我觉得他是怕半夜得陪我叫 room service) 特地准备了杯面。他呀，是用心良苦；可我是早有准备的。
 |
| 房里的食物应有尽有，还有酒呢 |
 |
| 我们房里的冰箱，不错吧？每天还有免费的雪糕供应呢 |
 |
| 早上只要张开眼睛就看到超级无敌海景 |
 |
| 看书或者上网都可以躺在自己房外的阳台上。 |
