Villa Nautica Paradise Island Resort sits in North Malé Atoll. The transfer runs about 20 minutes from the airport. We quote this island on request.

Villa Nautica Paradise Island Resort is a 5-star island in North Malé Atoll. About 20 minutes from Velana International Airport. We confirm the exact transfer — speedboat, domestic flight or seaplane — in writing with your booking.

The atoll the Maldives resort industry started in, and still the one with the most islands within an easy boat ride of the airport.

Villas

It has genuine overwater villas — not true of every Maldives resort, and the assumption that most often goes wrong when an island is picked on price. There are beach villas alongside the water ones. The categories are:

  • Deluxe Bungalow
  • Split Stay
  • Beach Bungalow
  • Water Villa

Who it suits

  • Indian food is reliably available — it matters on an island you cannot leave for dinner.

What the island is known for

  • Dive point
  • Island Hopping
  • Photo flight by Sea Plane
  • Submarine Tour
  • Truly Maldivian Wedding

In the water

Canoe, Boat Hire, Catamaran, Windsurf, Jetski Safari and Kayaking.
