Experience Exceptional Hospitality at The Nautilus Maldives

Tucked away in the heart of the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve Baa Atoll, The Nautilus Maldives presents an unparalleled private island retreat, encircled by thriving coral reefs, pristine beaches, and the famous Hanifaru Bay—an aquatic paradise teeming with manta rays and whale sharks. With only 26 opulent boho-chic villas and residences, this secluded sanctuary offers direct access to the beach or lagoon, ensuring absolute privacy and tranquility.

Each expansive haven is crafted with an organic, free-spirited aesthetic and boasts high-end amenities, including dedicated butler service. For maximum comfort, every villa and residence is outfitted with contemporary conveniences.

Guests at The Nautilus can indulge in customized wellness experiences and rejuvenating treatments at the overwater Solasta Spa or participate in yoga, meditation, and fitness sessions. The exclusive island also provides a variety of adventurous and leisurely activities, featuring both motorized and non-motorized water sports, all available at the guest’s convenience.

The resort houses three exquisite restaurants and two stylish lounge bars, embracing the philosophy of unstructured dining. Here, top-tier chefs create tailor-made culinary and mixology experiences, allowing guests to explore a world of flavors beyond a fixed menu—available anytime, anywhere, without the restrictions of traditional dining hours.

The Nautilus is effortlessly accessible via a breathtaking 30-minute seaplane flight from Malé International Airport. Alternatively, visitors can opt for a lavish private yacht transfer, taking approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes from the airport.

Couples particularly appreciate the setting, awarding it an impressive 9.6 rating for a romantic getaway.
