Try Sigur Ros, an Icelandic band and their album Takk. They are a little bit more energetic than Enya and Enigma as I know them but still produce a very atmospheric and euphoric sound.
You can watch a streaming video of a live perfermance of one of the better known tracks off the album, Hoppipolla, here, see if it's the kind of thing you like.

Try ERA (hard to find in the US, but well worth it), and anything else with Eric Levi. Also, Llewellyn, Vangelis, Mark Snow, Deep Forest, Delerium, ATB, Deva Premal, and Clannad. I am a fan of the genre, too. In the interest of "if you like this, try that", have a listen to Acoustic Alchemy and Bluetech as well - might find something new that you like.
As an aside, remember that Enya and Enigma are sooo alike because the same people are involved in making the music.

E.S Posthumus - more enigma style though......
......or visit iTunes and look for 'Corner Stone Cues' (that's the artist/group), or Karl Jenkins & Adiemus (Artist) and track: In paradisum: requiem: dies Irae
These are very much enigma styles. I think Enya is unique and have never really found anyone that could be like her in terms of that style she has.

i used to be into enigma, have you tried massive attack. not exactly the same, but similar elements. really mellow. if you wann move on to a more modern style, download some tech/trance, i do. ;-)

not really the same style, but Bjork is still great!
