The Nautilus Maldives

服務特別好，房間很大，乾淨！是豪華酒店的天花板了！

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.

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.

This is such an amazing place! We stayed in a beach residence and being able to wake up and walk straight on the beach was heaven. I want to give a special shout-out to the staff for being so professional and amazing - especially Siyam who personally helped us with everything, he was so helpful and quite the social media/ photographer expert so thankyou Siyam ! We had a wonderful experience, amazing food, lovely service and such clean and well maintained living ♥️

Oh. My. God. What a truly, truly remarkable place. One of the Best Resorts in the World Conde Naste say? A well-deserved award! Nautilus truly makes time stand still, and you get to drink in every second of your time there. The restaurants are amazing and really will make you anything they can, literally any time you want - menus are merely a suggestion or a guide. The beaches are perfect, the snorkelling remarkable and just steps from the beach. The accommodations are perfect, and the porthole in the living room floor is a wonderful idea. But what set the Nautilus experience so supper high was the staff. From our AMAZING, 'anything you need any time' house mater Sophia, to the lovely Natasia, Swan and Evi at the spa, our intrepid and determined manta guide Toby, to all the incredible waiters, waitresses, housekeepers, ground staff, EVERYONE was lovely and could not have been more focused on that hardest of things to do - delivering a remarkable, attentive guest experience while being also being so respectful of guests space and privacy. I've no idea how they knew when we were out of our room, but it was serviced like magic. I have no idea how they seamlessly communicated our preferences around the resort, but they are very, very, VERY good at it! The Maldives is chock full of amazing resorts. But if you want to go to the very very best....look no further than The Nautilus.

Lovely hotel where I have been coming for the fifth year. Excellent and friendly staff, good rooms. Quite nice coral reef that only gets better year after year as they are being tended to. You don't need a boat or anything to see the amazing underwater world. Delicious restaurants, but the kitchen and chefs are ready to cook for you whatever you want and you never hear - "it's not on the menu" or "we don't know how to do that". Amazing Kidclub, the kids just don't want to leave). Best of all, the island team make you feel like you are the only customer on the island and everything is just for you. A must visit. All the best Vladimir
