TNM Valentine's Brochure 2022

A flurry of love-filled splendour

VALENTINE'S 2022

Dear Nautilus guest, At The Nautilus, we are blessed with an abundance of awe-inspiring natural backdrops on and around the island where you may write your very own Maldivian love story.

Whether you choose to have days that are relaxed or filled with adventure, a myriad of options await you in our slice of paradise.

Imagine dining on an intimate pod suspended over a lagoon at our signature fine dining restaurant, Zeytoun; enjoying a private movie screening on a quiet patch of beach over a highly bespoke dinner; sailing the Indian Ocean while tasting finest wines, paired to perfection with gourmet canapés; or escaping to a far-flung sandbank, indulging a romantic feast under a celestial dome of stars with fairy-like plankton lights shimmering in the deep, beckoning you to a cool and refreshing dip after dessert.

Perhaps you are more inclined to free-spirited water and inter-island adventures – options here are colourful and aplenty. For deep relaxation, we have crafted romantic and revitalising wellness journeys at Solasta Spa; or maybe cocooning blissfully in your island home away from home will be just perfect for your current mood.

We invite you to create a world of your own making at The Nautilus this Valentine season. My team and I look forward to welcoming you!

From The Nautilus, with love ❤

“This is love: to fly toward a secret sky, to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment.

First to let go of life.

Finally, to take a step without feet.” ~ Rumi
