What makes a private island truly extraordinary? It’s more than seclusion—it’s the unparalleled freedom to shape your experience exactly as you desire. A sanctuary where time flows effortlessly, privacy feels boundless, and every moment is uniquely tailored to your personal journey.
At The Nautilus Maldives, we redefine the private island experience. Set within the heart of the Baa Atoll, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, this exclusive retreat offers unparalleled privacy and ultra-luxury hospitality—without the need for a full island buyout. With just 26 immensely private beach and ocean houses and residences, The Nautilus invites you to embrace the art of living unscripted, with limitless possibilities in a sanctuary that is entirely yours.
Bohemian Elegance
Each boho-chic house at The Nautilus is thoughtfully designed for your comfort, seamlessly blending natural elements with eco-conscious principles. Enjoy personalised butler service from your dedicated House Master, who curates every detail of your stay, ensuring each moment reflects your unique desires.
Here, you have the freedom to stay as connected or as wonderfully disconnected as you wish. For those seeking ultimate exclusivity, The Nautilus is also available for private island buyouts, making it the perfect setting for special celebrations and unforgettable gatherings.
Unscripted Dining
At The Nautilus, we embrace an unscripted dining philosophy. Here, there are no fixed menus or specific opening or closing times—your wishes guide every meal and experience. World-class chefs craft dishes that reflect your personal preferences, offering a completely bespoke dining experience. Whether it’s breakfast 2 pm on your private deck, a starlit beach dinner, or an impromptu picnic on a sandbank, every meal is uniquely yours.
With three gourmet restaurants and two bars, guests can enjoy dishes from across the globe, explore innovative flavours, or request off-menu creations.
Free-Spirited Experiences
Explore the vibrant underwater world of the Baa Atoll, from snorkelling the house reef to swimming alongside manta rays and whale sharks at the close by Hanifaru Bay. Or, venture out on free-spirited experiences such as dolphin cruises, private island picnics, or romantic sunset sails.
Families can make lasting memories with enriching ventures at Young Wonderers, the island’s children’s club. Here, children enjoy tailored activities that are both fun and educational, creating adventures they’ll never forget.
A Sanctuary for Mind, Body, and Soul
The overwater Solasta Spa is a sanctuary for holistic healing. Offering bespoke wellness journeys, the spa features glass-floored pavilions where treatments are crafted to your needs. Guests can indulge in massages, grounding aromatherapies, or soothing yoga and meditation sessions. Additionally, The Nautilus hosts exclusive wellness residencies from Ananda in the Himalayas, elevating your experience to a new level of rejuvenation.
Wellness at The Nautilus extends beyond the spa, seamlessly becoming a part of everyday island life. Fitness enthusiasts can take advantage of a fully equipped gym with support from our resident, certified fitness instructor. Adding to the experience, our state-of-the-art padel court invites guests to elevate their game, and from 22–25 March 2025, we are honoured to host Germany’s No. 1 player, Denise Hoefer, for an exclusive masterclass—offering a chance to hone your skills under expert guidance.
A World of Your Own Making
The Nautilus is a space where you can live without limits, crafting moments that reflect your unique narrative. Here, life’s most precious treasure—time—becomes yours to cherish, allowing you to reconnect with yourself and those you love in the most meaningful ways.
