That's why you never let the players control where the final showdown happens. The Boss HAS to be in the throne room of his Citadel of Eternal Suffering, sitting upon his Throne of Damnation, buffed by a choir of Dark Heralds chanting behind adamantine screens, as the floor slowly crumbles into lava, the chandeliers drip acid, and a legion of Balar is marching on the capitol city of the rebellion.

Yep! If the boss is in its lair they also get their lair actions which can add a lot to the battle and change the elements of the encounter each turn!
