Located in the BAA Atoll, The Nautilus is an ultra-luxury private island hideaway, originally built as a private residence for the owner to retire. However, a desire to create some of the very best luxury experiences in the world led to the island becoming an incredibly select destination for those who truly want to retire from the wider world and focus on the incredibly beautiful surroundings.
Lose yourself in the beauty of this unique UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, home to the world-renowned Hanifaru Bay, famous for its rich marine biodiversity, the bay is a hotspot for manta ray and whale shark sightings. Immerse in this ultra-luxury private island hideaway, enveloped by white sandy beaches and vibrant coral reefs alive with marine life.
