I booked this trip kind of last minute as I wanted to escape from the city where I broke up with my boyfriend. The purpose of this trip was to find a little quiet island to heal my wound and to learn scuba diving. I arrived in Male late (after 10pm) and had to stay for one night in Male... More

When you come back from holidays and do not stop thinking about the place where you stayed it just means that everything has been perfect. I've spent 12days at Nika and I can just talk very well about this little corner of paradise. The island is located in North Ari atoll, 20minutes from Male airport by seaplane, and it is... More

Spending our Honeymoon at Nika, we were gifted a free excursion of night fishing, a bottle of sparking wine, and a marriage cake. Staff was all nice and wore smile on their face. With Full Board, all meals are free except drinks. But the buffet appetizers and main courses + desserts are all delicious and we ate full every meal.... More

Just returned from a wonderful stay at Nika Island. Every single moment was wonderful, we enjoyed our whole stay, the management of the island is second to none. Nika is a very small island with just a few rooms, that made it special, no hectic no stress just a relaxing. We stayed there for 10 days in April, the offers... More

The island aims to the upper market and the rooms,private beach on the sunset side and the general layout of the island supports this view,however during our stay this judgement was amended by two specific reasons,during meal time in the only restaurant, we had numerous very young children running around the area playing,this until late in the evening,and spilling over...

1st of all hats of to this small resort but amazing deliverance. 37 Villas tastefully done and amazing spacious villas. Especially different Water Villas ever saw in Maldives and the private beach is 1000% meaningful as PRIVATE BEACH with a Jacuzzi hut on the beach for relaxing. Food was nice, very informal set. If you come to Maldives and run... More

We just spent 10 days in this beautiful small island. The concept of the private beaches and the "old easy way" to stay in Maldives are probably the best spots of the Nika Resort. Bungalows are huge and comfortable even if a bit oldish and with dark bathroom ( but they are planning some renovations for next season). The private... More

This was my third time in the Maldives, though the last time was six years ago. Admittedly, we have been spoiled by our previous islands - Vilu Reef and Athuruga - which were just perfect (at the time, before the tsunami - since then they have become over-developed, apparently), including the food and service. Nika is an attractive, green island... More

Nika was one of the first luxury resorts in the Maldives, and has resisted the urge to go giddily up market like many other places. It has gigantic villas which are a little old fashioned but very comfortable and perfectly maintained. You also get a private beach, which is good from the privacy point of view, but less good as...

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
Nika Resort is the only island in the Maldives where all the bungalows have their private beach, the best place for a complete relax. Nika is completely surrounded by a wonderful house reef and it’s dense of a luxurious vegetation where the bungalows are perfectly hidden. There are two bars where the guests can enjoy music, happy hours, wonderful sunsets, board games, library and satellite TV or just chill out in the breeze of the ocean. The Coffee Shop is located close to the main beach, is the ideal place to watch the sun go down after a lazy day basking in its brilliance. The restaurant also boasts a deck where one can dine with candles, the twinkling stars and the waves rolling on to the beach. Most of the food items and ingredients are imported directly from Italy.Some of the most interesting diving areas in Ari Atoll lie close to Nika Island: Maaya Thila (Shark point), Dinolugaa (Manta point), Ganghei Kandu, Matiburi, Maalos Thila, Kuda Thila and Miyaruga Thila are incredibile dives sites. ... more   less
