Wonderful island and great customer service
Pros: The island is amazing and picture perfect and the houses and facilities are very well designed and well maintained. Our house master Yousra was an angel, she went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed even before we ask for it! Do not worry about leaving important items behind because whatever it is she will get it for you in no time.
Cons: Nothing really, everything was just perfect.

Cons: Цена/качество-точно не соответствует Неухоженность в целом ощущается на острове-можно много раз найти какой-то мусор в кустах. Вокруг острова находится волнорез-что портит вид на океан. В вилле на воде, которую бронировал-нет тропического душа на улице. Во всех отелях на Мальдивах ранее он конечно был. Завтраки-достаточно скучны. Богемным этот отель не назовешь.

A deeply distressing experience at The Nautilus Maldives – unsafe handling causing injury to guests, inadequate medical care, and disappointing management  My family had high expectations for our stay at The Nautilus Maldives, but we were devastated by a serious incident involving my mother, who suffered a second-degree burn when a staff member spilled boiling water on her arm and thigh on the first night when she was dining at the resort.  After a severe burn incident—caused by dangerously mishandled boiling water by staff—there was a disturbing delay in medical assistance. The nurse didn’t arrive until 15 minutes later, leaving us no choice but to perform emergency first aid ourselves with chilled towels and basic burn ointment we had to retrieve from our villa. This lack of urgency and preparedness during a critical moment was profoundly disturbing and raises serious concerns about the resort’s safety protocols and staff training. What’s even more troubling was how the resort’s medical team downplayed the severity of my mother’s injury. Although the nurse’s own report described skin peeling and blistering—clear indicators of a second-degree burn—the resort diagnosed it as a first-degree burn and provided only a basic topical cream suited for mild burn. For three days, my mother followed this incorrect treatment, during which the wound visibly worsened. It wasn’t until we requested to be taken to ADK Hospital in Malé that a licensed doctor confirmed the correct diagnosis: a second-degree superficial burn involving blistering, slough, and maceration. The treatment at the resort had not only been insufficient—it likely exacerbated the injury. As a result, my mother was confined indoors for the entire holiday, prohibited from sun exposure and sea water, and subjected to painful daily dressing changes. It caused not only physical pain but mental distress for all of our family members, ruining the family reunion holiday for us.  For such a serious incident, we expected compassion and accountability from management. Instead, despite clear documentation and multiple attempts to communicate, the General Manager, Mr. Adan Gomez, refused to acknowledge any fault on the resort’s part, going so far as to state that “the guest contributed to the incident” in the most offensive, unethical way possible. A significant burn injury on a woman’s body is a matter of serious concern, both medically and emotionally. It demands urgent attention, appropriate care, and compassion—not only for the physical trauma but also for its potential long-term impact on her well-being and quality of life. This lack of ownership and deflection of responsibility from the management was deeply unsettling, especially from a resort commanding rates over $3,000 per night and promising world-class hospitality. When a guest’s safety is at stake, the minimum one should expect is dignity and respectful treatment—not deflection, skewing the narrative for misplaced accusations or denial. Our holiday turned into a traumatic ordeal, and we couldn’t enjoy activities together as planned. Please consider the ugly handling of such incidents when considering The Nautilus Maldives, especially when traveling with young kids and family.

We had a great family stay at the Mansion house. The house is big enough for 3 families stay very comfortable together. The Mansion is a trully luxury experience. We had the pleasure to have Siyam as our buttler, who provided fresh fruit and snacks daily for the house. Also, we could easily contact him to ask any question related to our stay. He has a great energy, was always happy and very friendly. As we had 4 kids together one of the most import things we took into account while searching for a resort in the Maldives was one with Kids Club, so I must to talk about how great this one is. After a late breakfast, our kids would go straight away to the Kids Club (less than 1 min walk from the Mansion - just one house away), and they would spend around 3 hours daily around there. The lovely lady who works there is kind and gentle with kids and very enthousiast of making actvities with them. I wouldnt be able to mention all the great things they made with her - from DIY t-shirt, to DIY kite, making drinks, having ice cream and searching for coins or butterflies around the island.. to name a few.. the kids felt bonded with her and the day to say goodbye was a bit difficult for the oldest. We noticed that many of the staff looks genuinely happy while working, so we asked to one of them how it is working there, how they spend their free time and how he told yet with enthousiasm how they can get reunited to enjoy the free time and go to other islands and even eventually get presents (goods) from the Resort as apreciation to their work. In sum, I highly recommend this resort, mainly the stay at the Mansion.

Had the most beautiful family holiday at the Nautilus, everything was simply perfect. The villas really are WOW with no expense spared in creating a home from home , food and service excellent in all restaurants , and every member of staff is friendly , attentive and professional, special thanks to our housemaster Siyam who took care of us so well. The highlight of our trip was swimming with the manta rays at Hanifaru bay , which is unforgettable and should not be missed. Thank you to everyone at The Nautilus and hope to visit again soon.

Нам довелось побывать в мае в " Наутилусе". Дождило немного, бассейн был теплым, вокруг острова насыпь камней, разбивающая волны, так что в океан тоже спокойно заходили. Жили по неделе на вилле " на земле" и на водной вилле. Так уж получилось, в какой-то момент разьехались все гости и отель переселил нас в еще большую водную виллу без доплат!!! Виллы красивые все, чисто, роскошно и лучше один раз увидеть. У отеля яхты замечательные, рестораны все отличные, супы, суши, фуа-гра, морепродукты, фруктовые тарелки на виллу, в меню блюда кухонь народов мира!!! С 18-00 полчаса можно в баре пить моктели, коктели, наверно и покрепче , все включено. Живая музыка была от талантливого певца Мавина, голос лучше , чем у Пресли! Отдельно хочу сказать про нашего батлера, Сияма, необыкновенной души человек, профессионал своего дела. Всегда на всязи, очень быстро все организовывал. Благодаря ему, муж увидел мант, огромную стаю! Сиям оперативно посадил нас на катер, когда приплыли манты размером метров 6-8. Мы чувствовали постоянную заботу Сияма ( Siyam), нашего уборщика вилл Оре ( Orey), вежливые официанты все, особенно Маню (Maniu), сотрудницы Спа просто волшебницы Таки и Аши. Спасибо Адаму , главному менеджеру и владельцам отеля, мы благодарны и желаем вам счастья!!! Я про отель могу книгу, а не отзыв написать. Сбылась наша мечта увидеть " Наутилус", чего и вам желаю. Знаю точно, что Сиям всегда нас там ждет!!!

Всем добрый день! Впервые побывала на Мальдивах и теперь точно знаю,что рай на земле существует! И это удивительное место называется The Nautilus! Всё по самому высшему разряду. Отличная вилла с продуманной каждой деталью и мелочью для удобства и комфорта. Вкуснейшая и свежайшая еда на завтрак,обед и ужин на любой вкус и любой запрос. Пляжи с белым песком,чистой водой и фантастическими закатами (это ,вообще,на разрыв сердца!). Но самое важное и главное - это профессиональный персонал,который, кажется,незаметно,но очень качественно выполняет свою работу. Это и 2-х-разовая уборка виллы,и сотрудники ресторанов,и шеф-повара,которые обязательно выходили и спрашивали понравилась ли нам еда и учитывали наши пожелания (даже готовили по запросу ребёнка любимый им борщ!),и милые девушки Диана и Мария в детском клубе,на которых смело можно оставить ребёнка и он будет занят интересными развивающими играми. Но отдельной строкой с большим уважением хочется отметить нашу прекрасную Housemaster Софию Белоус! Очаровательная и милая русскоговорящая девушка,с потрясающей улыбкой и профессионал очччень высокого уровня,которая выполняла все наши самые невероятные «хотелки» в любое время дня и ночи,встречала и провожала нас,возила на багги и,кажется,на 3 шага вперёд предугадывала все наши мечты и пожелания. Браво!!! Если снова возвращаться на отдых на Мальдивы,то именно сюда,в The Hautilus! Вы - лучшие! С ув. педагог на пенсии Лариса Виноградова г. Москва

We have recently returned from a two week trip to The Nautilus. The original booking was to split our time between an over water villa and a beach bungalow . In the end we decided to stay with the former as we were comfortable and didn’t want the disruption. The CIP arrival process at Velana , whilst not exclusive to the Nautilus (but is included in the resort’s tariff) is superb. You are met from the steps of the plane and escorted to a CIP lounge which deals with all your immigration and luggage formalities. The process is very fast and if you book the exclusive Nautilus plane you can expect to be at the island within 40 minutes. We actually had the entire plane to ourselves which was a novelty! We had a full management greeting at the arrival jetty and Mira ,our very kind butler, escorted us around the small but manicured island. Everything you would expect for a 5 star resort is in pristine condition. You receive a contact form before arrival as many reviewers have already commented on regarding pillows, mattresses ,allergies and even down to the temperature of the swimming pool. We had a few hit and misses on the food. It is expensive and items starred on menu’s are surcharged so you expect something special. We had such an experience at Zeytoun which was below par. The chef rectified this on the next night with a beautifully seasoned and cooked porterhouse! The dine anywhere, eat breakfast anywhere concept is well known to the Nautilus and it is pretty cool. By and large though we vacated our room so that it could be serviced by Allam. You very rarely saw him but whenever we came back to the villa it was spotless, fridge replenished, ice bucket full…incredible. For medical reasons I was unable to dive but we did snorkel on the beautiful house reef. They have a cocktail 1/2 hour every evening at Naiboli where you can meet other guests but there won’t be a lot because it is a small and private island! Last shout out for Mira who was wonderful. Friendly and discrete but always on hand. He noticed that my wife didn’t like the a/c light on which was bothering her sleep. Next day all lights were taped up. That’s attention to detail. It is an expensive resort but they look after you very well and you will struggle to want to leave.

С полной уверенностью могу сказать, что это лучший остров на Мальдивах! Вернулись сюда второй раз, и точно вернемся еще! Полное уединение, отсутствие людей, шикарная качественная еда, косметика, белье! Персонал!! Остров на котором хочется запечатлеть каждый метр!! Все безумно чисто, ухоженно, чувствуется разумное потребление, бережное отношение ко всему! И самое главное, это люди!! И атмосфера! Ни в одним отеле не чувствуется такое но отношения. Ни одна Сонева или джоали не сравнится!

Wir waren das erste Mal im The Nautilus und hatten sehr hohe Erwartungen an das Resort. Jedes Jahr im November gehen wir auf die Malediven und haben schon viele Luxus Resorts gesehen. The Nautilus ist ein sehr gutes Luxus Resorts mit wahnsinnig freundlichem und hilfsbereitem Personal, aber in einigen Bereichen nicht top Niveau. Der CIP Service nach der Ankunft in Male ist ein grosses Highlight und eine grosse Unterstützung bei der Immigration. Sie nehmen wir alles ab und Du kannst Dich in der VIP Lounge erholen. Anschliessend wirst Du mit einem privaten Transfer in das Seaplane Terminal gefahren und anschliessend mit dem Nautilus Wasserflugzeug zum Hotel geflogen. Leider kann der Flieger nicht direkt im Nautilus anlegen, so dass man noch auf eine Yacht umsteigen muss. Ist bei schlechtem Wetter (hatten wir beider Ankunft) suboptimal. Der Empfang war extrem freundlich und die Villa ist aussergewöhnlich. Grosszügig, sauber und modern. Das Essen ist hervorragend und das Konzept "jederzeit und immer ist alles verfügbar" schon ein Hit. Sie können Essen gehen wann immer sie wollen. Auch z.B. SPA ist zu jederzeit möglich. Leider war der Service um die Villa und den Butler eine Enttäuschung für diese Kategorie. Der Aussenbereich wurde zwei Wochen nicht gereinigt und Blätter und Laub und der Pool wurde vernachlässig. Wir mussten unseren Butler mehrfach hinweisen, dass das Poolwasser Grün ist und behandelt werden muss. Das hat sich auch nach mehrmaligen Hinweisen nicht gross geändert. Auch das Tauchen ist auf "The Nautilus" fragwürdig. Es richtiges Check-In gab es nicht und die Tauchbasis wollte meine Lizenz gar nicht sehen, sehr ungewöhnlich. Aus das Taucherlebnis mit dem Tauchguide war mangelhaft. Die Unterwasserwelt um The Nautilus ist super und grossartig. Aber die ganze Organisation hat mir gar nicht gefallen. Deswegen war in nur 1 Tag tauchen. Das Hausriff ist sensationell und ist gut vom Strand erreichbar. Schön zu sehen, dass die Unterwasserwelt um das Hotel gut erhalten ist. Auch das SPA ist zu empfehlen und die Mitarbeiter und Behandlungen top. Das SPA muss unbedingt besucht werden. Wegen dem Pool und dem Butler gibt es bei uns keine volle Punktzahl, trotzdem ist The Nautilus eine Reise wert.

We stayed at the Nautilus in Dec 2024 for our honeymoon, and it was the best decision we ever made. Coming from the US, it was definitely a lot of travel to get there, but immediately when we arrived, we knew it would be worth it. We stayed in an Ocean House, and had Nappe as our house master, who was absolutely lovely. The service was impeccable, and rivals, if not exceeds, any other luxury resort. We specifically chose The Nautilus because of its size, and loved that we felt like we were on our own private island. We only saw others at breakfast, sunset cocktail hours, and dinner; and even then, it never felt crowded. The food was definitely a highlight for us - every single meal we had was incredible, and the service even better. All of the staff are so lovely and welcoming, and made the experience that much better! Our favorite night was when we went sunset fishing, came back with our haul, and were treated to a meal by the chef, where we were served our catches 4 different ways. It was unlike anything we ever had. There are not enough good things I could stay about The Nautilus. We had an incredible honeymoon, and are already trying to figure out when we can make the trip back!

Es war damals eines meiner bisher schönsten Malediven-Erlebnisse. All die Jahre musste ich immer wieder an die Insel zurückdenken und gross war die Freude, als ich kürzlich zu einem weiteren Besuch auf die Insel reiste. Eine Rezeption sucht man vergeblich, der Check-in erfolgt direkt in der Villa. Alles ist noch immer wie neu und in Topzustand und auch die Vegetation auf der Insel hat sich wunderschön entwickelt. «The Nautilus» ist benannt nach dem einzigen Tintenfisch, der eine eingerollte äussere Schale besitzt. Daran orientiert sich das Resort. Es gibt keine harten Linien, alles ist rund oder oval, egal ob die Villen, die Restaurants oder der Pool. Das soll den Energiefluss positiv beeinflussen. «Time stands still» lautet ein Grundsatz. Auf der ganzen Insel gibt es keine Uhren. Und damit existiert auf der Insel quasi keine Zeit. Ich muss mich an keine Vorgaben halten, denn es gibt keine. Wann immer ich etwas erleben oder haben möchte – ich bekomme es. Ich möchte mein Frühstück erst um vier Uhr am Nachmittag? Klar, kommt sofort. Es gibt schlicht keine Pläne. Das macht alles extrem privat. Diese Freiheit ist der absolute Luxus und extrem zeitgemäss. Frühstück auf einer Jacht, privater Filmabend auf einer Sandbank, Nachtschnorcheln, ein Barbecue am Strand – es gibt nichts, was es nicht gibt. Was am Tag angeboten wird, kann man auch nachts erleben und umgekehrt. Und vor allem ist The Nautilus eine Barfussinsel. Bei meinen zahlreichen Malediven-Reisen musste ich vor allem bei den neueren Resorts feststellen, dass das Barfussfeeling, wofür die Malediven eigentlich bekannt ist, verloren geht. Mit der bescheidenen Anzahl von insgesamt 26 Häusern und Residenzen am Strand und auf dem Meer darf man das Resort als Inbegriff ultraluxuriöser Boheme-Gastfreundschaft auf den Malediven bezeichnen. Jede Unterkunft ist ein privates Refugium mit eigenem Wohnzimmer, eigenem Butlerservice und privatem Pool, das den Komfort eines Zuhauses mit einer unkonventionellen Laune verbindet und Sie in das Barfussleben in einem der Luxushotels der Malediven einlädt. Die Strandvillen mit über 300 Quadratmetern verfügen zum Beispiel über ein ovales Schlafzimmer und ein angrenzendes Wohnzimmer, das sich zu einem grossen privaten Sonnendeck öffnet, das von gepflegten Gärten geschützt ist und Blick auf den Strand bietet. Die Gerichte auf den Speisekarten verstehen sich nur als Vorschläge. Fisch ja, aber bitte mit Gemüse dazu und alles laktosefrei – all das ist überhaupt kein Problem. Es gibt ein Restaurant mit japanischer Fusionsküche und ein italienisches, aber was auf den Teller kommt, bestimme ich als Gast letztendlich selbst – und auch wann. Denn natürlich gilt für die Küche derselbe Grundsatz wie für alles andere: wann und wo auch immer. Selbstverständlich ist das Essen hervorragend, die besten Weine der Welt stehen auf der Getränkekarte und die Mitarbeiter sind extrem freundlich, herzlich und zugleich angenehm zurückhaltend. Diese Freiheit von Zeit und Wahl, die ich hier erlebe, macht The Nautilus für mich zu einem wahren Ultraluxusresort. The Nautilus wurde mehrfach als «Bestes Resort im Indischen Ozean» und unter die drei besten Resorts der Welt gewählt. Komplettiert werden Ehrungen mit dem Top-zwei-Ergebnis für den Indischen Ozean bei den Condé Nast Traveler’s Readers Choice Awards 2023. Die Zeit steht hier einfach still. Keine Öffnungszeiten oder Restriktionen – es gibt alles, was das Herz begehrt, immer und überall. Der personalisierte Komfort, der engagierte Butlerservice, das massgeschneiderte Gastronomiekonzept sowie das exquisite Essen – im Mittelpunkt steht das unerschütterliche Engagement für den Komfort der Gäste. Das Resort lehnt konventionellen Luxus zugunsten einer zugänglicheren Opulenz ab und konzentriert sich auf Komfort und Entspannung ohne unnötige Dekadenz. The Nautilus Maldives: ein Fünf-Sterne-Luxusresort auf den Malediven, das ein einzigartiges Privatinselerlebnis bietet, ohne dass man das gesamte Inselresort buchen muss. Ich komme wieder!
