We absolutely loved every minute of our stay. There really wasnt anything that let this island down. The food was incredible, the service on point and there wasnt a chance to get bored with all the activities and facilities available. The dive centre is the best ive ever been to. All the staff there were super helpful. The dive guides extremely knowledgeable and a pleasure to dive with. Our guide Kartik was brilliant. He took us to some mind blowing dive spots all only a short distance from the island. We also did a night dive on the house reff which is just beautiful.

The island is beautiful and very relaxing. Being able to walk out of our villa onto the beach and snorkel with the amazing sea life was the highlight of the trip for us. All of the staff were friendly and helpful with special mention to Helan, our housekeeper, and the wait staff in Bageecha Restaurant who were particularly attentive. Towards the end of our stay, we were thrilled to receive a complementary room upgrade to a stunning water villa. It was such a treat for our last night. Overall, it was an incredible trip that we will never forget.

Hands down the best Holiday we have been on. Services was INCREDIBLE, they went above and beyond and kept surprising us with little extra details that made our trip so special. Special shoutout to Tharun from the Lagoon restaurant, best waiter we have ever had! The Villa Nautica Island was truly paradise and snorkeling was next level. Would highly recommend this place to anyone who wants a 5 star experience in the maldives.

On scale of 10 I would give this place 10👍 especially when you look at the cost “ you are getting more than what you are paying “ compared with other resorts in Maldives. Friendly staff, clean facilities overall, variety of food, a lot of activities. We spent 4 days here and they went too fast. Me and my family would like to say a big thank to the resort management team for the wonderful surprise that they present for my daughter’s birthday. Definitely we will do it again soon. Thank you

I had the pleasure of staying at the beautiful Villa Nautica in the Maldives and I can only say: WOW! The staff was incredibly attentive and accommodating, always ready to fulfill any request. The cleanliness throughout the resort was impressive, everything literally sparkled. The food was a true delight for the senses - fresh, diverse, and deliciously prepared. But the best part was the warm friendliness that was shown everywhere. I wholeheartedly recommend Villa Nautica - a paradise on Earth!

Relaxing break

Amazing place to disconnect.I went there with my friends for a long weekend.We spent time together snorkelling,walking in the beach,attending the yoga lessons and just watching the sunset and sunrise. Food was good also. As a gold member I didn’t receive any upgrade,but on the last day after checking out we were allowed to use a smaller room until the departure time.

beautiful location, tons of sealife along the boardwalks, gorgeous beach, alot of activities to choose from (some included and some are extra). Only confusing thing was if you add the all inclusive not everything is included.. They is plenty to pick from but not everything in the rooms etc are included.

An unforgettable experience

The resort well deserves its name! It was paradise indeed, as the whole resort is surrounded by white sand beaches, the clearest water I have ever seen and lovely fish. We opted for the all inclusive package and stayed at a water villa. All the facilities were so clean and well maintained. House keeping was impeccable. There were so many activities and excursions to choose from so we never a moment of boredom. As for the food, I can tell that the resort tried to change the menu daily. It was well prepared and we particularly enjoyed our meal at the seafood restaurant. Finally I would also like to highlight that the staff were extremely helpful and friendly.

We booked 13 nights at Villa Nautica for our wedding anniversary. We stayed in an overwater Executive Suite. The room with its own private pool was very well appointed and maintained and was nothing short of spectacular! However the biggest delight of our trip was the incredibly friendly. warm and welcoming staff. The staff in the Lagoon restaurant, Rasheed, Bilal, Surjan and all the team were wonderful and constantly looking for ways to make our stay special. The Island Hosts Mihoo and Amine were always available to answer questions and arrange dinners and activities. We cannot say enough about our experience at Villa Nautica and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a special getaway. Fingers crossed one day we will get back again!

A beautiful sun kissed location only 20 mins from Male. The island and resort spoils you from the moment you are picked up to the time you leave. We stayed at a beach villa which gave us an unobstructed view of the sunrise every morning, that plus watching the fins of the (harmless) black tip reef sharks circling was simply magical. The sunsets from the pool and Captains bar were equally spectacular!. The staff deserve a special call out; Siham our host for being on call when we needed her, the 3 Queens of Bageecha Geethika, Manikala and Samjhona for their beaming smiles and attentiveness and Vanna, Eyman, Vinnu and Ritesh for their exemplary commitment to service and extra special dishes due to allergies. But there were many others too that made our trip very very special.

Overall nice stay with great snorkeling. We stayed at water villa and ate at the Lagoon restaurant. The food can use improvement in quality and consistency. Service staff was nice. We filled out the survey for food on our 2nd day and the staff really took it seriously and made sure we had good food options rest of our stay. Breakfast was consistently awesome. Lunch and dinner varied in our opinion. I wish our host treated the food allergy we reported seriously as we had kiwi sent to our room as well served on a 10 person excursion without an alternative. The staff was nice to have kind gestures when we shared the food allergy issue. Just not the 5-star personalized experience we expected. We booked on Expedia 7 days before we arrived. The hotel never confirmed our arrival flight. Hope the property better manages communication. Luckily there was another family on the same flight so we didn’t wait for the boat transfer. Just an unnecessary stressful beginning when you do not hear back from the property.

We had a beautiful honeymoon at Villa Nautica. We were all inclusive and maximised our food choices, and activities that were available to us. There is so much to say for the resort including its rooms, facilities, and beaches. But what really made our experience so amazing was the food and the staff. The staff went above and beyond to make our holiday as special as possible. The white sandy beaches at the resort were truly paradise, with great snorkelling spots. There were a wide range of sports activities and a full sport centre with regular activities to take part in. Spa was amazing. We stayed in both the beach and villa resort and both were really nice. The rooms were kept to a really high standard by maid service. And finally thank you to our island host Shaihaan who was assigned to us when we entered the resort. He was available 24/7 for anything we needed, answered all our queries and was always so kind and helpful.

Very nice stay in room with a pool, nicely located close to beach, sports center, restaurant and other amenities. The island is a short boat ride from Male, has pristine water and beach on most of its coast. Excellent service throughout, but special shout out to Pradeep who took care of our room twice a day with great attention to details and a knack for interesting conversations. Also thank you to Jahangir at the restaurant who added a very personal touch which made us feel very welcome. Overall service is key and Villa Nautica did not disappoint on that front. It was easy for us to engage in water sports activities with many options available. Trying out the squash court was also fun! The only down side, if there is one in this idyllic place, is the choice of restaurants. The main restaurant is serving buffet which gets repetitive after a few days and we wished there would other dining options. There are 2 or 3 other restaurants on site, but availability is quite limited and not part of the full board package.

This property takes roughly 20 mins via speed boat from the airport, upon arrival you are greeted by very friendly staff and taken via golf carts to the main bar area for some welcome refreshments and cleaning towels. Your host will then explain how everything works around the property and go over any dues. Be aware that if you get in early, you will not be able to check in to your room till after 2pm, recommend bringing your swimsuit to change into so you have something to do. For the room we stayed in the beach villas, the room was spacious with a nice beach view. The room itself can definitely use some updating and they have outdated lamps and lighting/fans. The bathroom was nice with a tub/shower and right outside of the bathroom they have an outdoor shower that was really nice! The rooms get cleaned twice per day, our cleaning person Jeeno was excellent and very attentive! The food and drinks were good with a good selection daily. I definitely recommend buying all inclusive package as the drinks and food are not cheap! The property itself was very pretty with plenty of walking, snorkeling and water sports to do. This has been the clearest water I have seen compared to the Caribbean etc. The only disappointing thing was the areas on the outskirts of the property in the rock walls was very dirty with many water bottles and stare foam pieces of trash. The property could provide trash nets and some trash sticks, I’m sure many people would not mind helping clean up.
