A Boho Luxe Celebration: Festive Season at Niyama

Festive Moments, Island Magic
Wander through the twinkling lights of our Niyama Festive Market, sip spiced cocktails beneath palm-fringed canopies, and enjoy timeless moments, from beautifully decorated Christmas trees to carols drifting on the sea breeze.
Then, as the sun sets, the energy shifts. Think firelit beach feasts, starlit cinema nights, and vibrant countdowns inspired by the spirit of Boho: bold, beautiful, and completely untraditional.
Celebrate in true Boho Luxe style, laid-back, radiant, and a little wild. Let go of the ordinary, feel the rhythm of the islands, and embrace the freedom to play, dance, and reconnect in Nature’s Playground.
