About the island
74 kilometers from Male Airport, reachable in 30 minutes by seaplane. This island is run by Italians, mainly serving Italians and Germans, and opened to Chinese in 2005. After renovation in 2007, the island's facilities and services became more complete. Each bungalow here has its own private beach and provides considerate service.
Why stay here
Located in North and South Ari Atoll, white beaches, clear water, rich marine life, the scenery is always beautiful and impressive. Nika Island has coconut palm lagoon views, pearl-white sand, and casually designed decor; upon entering you feel relaxed and at ease. Unlike other resorts, visitors here get a private experience and feel the warmth of home. When you step onto this island, you will cast aside all worries and troubles. The most prominent landmark on the island is the huge bodhi tree in the center; although its age cannot be determined, it is still lush, its shade spreads everywhere, very spectacular, and it is a very worthwhile sight on Nika Island. Nika Island Resort has a unique style; the buildings were designed by Italian designers, so the style has a strong Italian flavor.
Highlights
①Includes breakfast, lunch and dinner, seaplane transfers, one of the five-star islands with good value; ②Few rooms, low density, good privacy; ③Italian-run, good and considerate service; ④Italian architectural style, water villas allow rooftop sea views, beautiful and romantic.

Immerse yourself in vibrant marine life and crystal-clear waters and embark on an unforgettable diving adventure.

Wedding
View details
Introduction: Tropical islands are ideal for weddings or vow renewals. A dedicated team can help you organize a customized ceremony. Weddings are held at the most iconic locations on the island and throughout the Maldives: exchange vows privately on your own private beach; at sunset, on the Nika Lagoon; or surrounded by the majestic colors of the Indian Ocean on a sandbank that appears when the tide recedes, not far from Nika.
Museum
View details
Introduction: A labyrinth of tunnels and galleries, coral-made vaults and arches lead visitors through an unexpected space, along with a unique collection of crafts, artworks and creations by local artists. A series of objects and items enable the Nika team to share a compelling story with the traveler community and to allow the local community to (re)discover the heritage of a country that is slowly disappearing. The new museum is a space that reflects the beauty of a nation; it tells of what the country once was—and hopefully it may even foreshadow the Maldives' future development.
