The Nautilus Maldives
BAA ATOLL
The Nautilus Maldives is an ultra-luxury private island hideaway. Located in the heart of the Baa Atoll, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve that is home to the world-famous Hanifaru Bay, the island is surrounded by white-sand beaches and vibrant coral reefs—natural treasures that the property is committed to preserving. Its 26 exclusive island homes and residences are designed with an eco-conscious vision and an organic, bohemian flair. The Nautilus is the only resort in the Maldives that offers a unique private island experience without the need for an exclusive purchase. Its intimate island sanctuary takes personalized luxury to a new level, with unparalleled space and complete privacy; bespoke home-like amenities and dedicated butler service; and exquisite cuisine available anytime, anywhere. In this paradise where time seems to stand still, the guest experience is one of complete liberation. From private picnics on sandbanks and personalized treatments in our overwater spa, to spectacular underwater adventures and enriching, fun-filled children’s programs, The Nautilus offers endless possibilities for experiences tailored to your every whim. Here, on its shores, travelers are invited to write their own story in their own private space, to embrace the freedom of creating cherished moments, and to embark on a journey of discovery and wonder.
