A private island sanctuary redefining luxury, The Nautilus Maldives offers boundless freedom, bespoke experiences, and unhurried elegance in the Indian Ocean.
Tucked away in turquoise waters of the Baa Atoll UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, The Nautilus Maldives is one of the most intimate and ultra-luxurious private island resorts on the planet. It’s for those that see luxury as freedom more than formality, rewriting the concept of luxury in the Maldives by making it a deeply personal, private, and supremely refined occurrence.
Nautilus is fully equipped with only 26 ultra-private beach and ocean houses, each a secluded haven with a private infinity pool, butler, and view overlooking the turquoise lagoon. Each suite is a free-spirited home, handcrafted with handpicked bohemian décor, natural textures, and open spaces inviting guests to live untethered by schedules.
What makes The Nautilus truly incomparable is the philosophy of “Time Stands Still.” There are no set check-in or check-out times, no restaurants that close, and no schedules prescribed. Guests determine their own rhythm, be it breakfast at sunset, spa treatments at midnight, or private cinema nights under starlit skies. This unhurried indulgence defines a new era of luxury where personalisation becomes an art form.
The island’s philosophy of freedom is reflected in the culinary experiences. The overwater Zeytoun Lounge celebrates the Mediterranean-Asian fusion, Ocaso serves up Japanese-Latin fire-grilled delights by the beach, while Thyme, the all-day dining venue, crafts dishes on demand with flair. Every meal feels spontaneous, expertly crafted to your taste whenever the mood strikes.
Beyond the gastronomy, The Nautilus invites guests to experience its House Reef, brimming with manta rays and underwater life, or take in the atoll on private yacht excursions. The overwater Solasta Spa crafts holistic therapies drawing from ancient healing rituals and avant-garde wellness techniques.
Intimacy and discretion rule supreme here. The resort’s staff, more family than staff, anticipate with unobtrusive ease everything that one might need. Every moment feels private, yet deeply human.
The Nautilus Maldives is a haven for the discerning traveller, embodying a philosophy of living freely and luxuriously without compromise, one that truly values serenity, privacy, and authenticity.
