Maldives Over the Water Villas

We were all very happy with the service. Also, it was great to have a separate restaurant for the over the water villas. Service and food variety were great! The over the water villas were fabulous. Being able to snorkel right off the back deck of the villa was priceless (and we saw so many kinds of fish!). We had the all-inclusive package and there were still a lot of things (drinks, restaurants, activities) that were not included - that always felt like trying to get even more money out of us (and high prices). Wish that was just a small exception to the rule.

Not worth what we paid

We had a beach bungalow which was very tired and dated. The paint on the walls looked dirty, the tiling in the bathroom was poor, the outdoor furniture was very weathered. The beach bungalows are on the east side of the island, and some are a long walk from the pool and restaurant, but buggies are available. Note that the water villas are on the east side of the island too and face either north or south. The pool is a good size but the resort is very children friendly so there are a lot of kids. The lounger mattresses get very wet if it rains, and aren't stored away over night. The food in the restaurant is very varied, although it made my partner poorly for 48 hours and we had to visit the on site doctor, who was very good. The staff everywhere are exceptional... very polite and friendly. Good range of drinks available on the all inclusive menu, but service could be quite slow at times. The island is very close to the airport, so there are a lot of boats passing by at all times. There is entertainment every night, including bingo, a disco and live music. Don't come here if you want tranquility... the children, boats and entertainment all prevent that. The gym is well equipped with a mix of old and new equipment. Personally i found it too over crowded and they could afford to lose some equipment. The snorkeling is excellent and very accessible. Watch out for dangerous lion fish and puffa fish. Take an under water camera!

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

Overall, we loved our stay here. A couple of things to note if you’re considering booking: - the primary nationals who stay here are Russians. - there is quite a bit of loud construction going on during the low season.. we had to move rooms twice to get away from the noise. The staff go above and beyond to make sure you’re enjoying your stay. Huge shout out to everyone who works there. Food was really good, especially the buffet at Lagoon restaurant.

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.
