Experience world-class service at The Nautilus Maldives

Nestled in the heart of the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve Baa Atoll, The Nautilus Maldives offers an ultra-luxury private island experience surrounded by vibrant coral reefs, sandy beaches and the world-renowned Hanifaru Bay, a haven for manta rays and whale sharks. With just 26 ultra-luxe boho-chic houses and residences, this exclusive hideaway provides direct beach or lagoon access, ensuring ultimate privacy and seclusion. Each spacious sanctuary is designed with an organic, bohemian flair and features ultra-luxury amenities, including personalised butler service. For added convenience, each of the houses and residences is equipped with modern comforts. Guests at The Nautilus can unwind with bespoke wellness journeys and holistic treatments at the overwater Solasta Spa or join yoga, meditation, and fitness sessions. The private island also offers an extensive range of free-spirited experiences, including both motorised and non-motorised water sports, all of which can be arranged anytime, as per the guest's preference. The Nautilus features three gourmet restaurants and two lounge bars, embracing the concept of unscripted dining. Here, world-class chefs craft personalised culinary and mixology delights, allowing guests to veer off the menu and enjoy anything, anywhere, at any time—without the constraints of opening or closing times. The Nautilus is easily accessible via a scenic 30-minute seaplane journey from Male’ International Airport or guests can enjoy a private luxury yacht transfer which takes approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes from the airport.
