Saya was extremely helpful and kind
This summer, in August 2026, we once again had the pleasure of visiting our beloved Villa Nautica. This is a place where we always want to return, not only to relax and recharge both body and soul, but also to celebrate my birthday.
Once again, we were warmly welcomed by our attentive and caring manager, Miss Ermie, Her genuine care and thoughtful attention played a very important role in our decision to return to the hotel. Miss Ermie always does everything possible to make every stay at Villa Nautica truly unforgettable, filled with wonderful memories, happiness, and joy in every single day!
The incredible amount of care and attention she showed to our child was especially touching and truly heartwarming. ❤️ It meant so much to us!
Our holiday felt like a celebration, and everything exceeded our expectations. The entire hotel staff is exceptionally polite, friendly, and welcoming. We would also like to give special praise to the impeccable cleanliness of our room and the delicious food served in the hotel’s restaurants.
Now we have an even bigger desire to return in 2027 and celebrate our honeymoon at Villa Nautica!
With heartfelt gratitude and hope to see you again, we wish the entire hotel team, and of course Miss Ermie in particular, continued success, prosperity, happiness, and all the very best. ❤️🙏🏻
本当に素晴らしい新婚旅行でした!! 空港から高速船で20分で到着します。空港の近場でありながら海が透き通っており、沢山の魚、サメ、エイが間近で観察できました。 スタッフについても全員が丁寧で優しいです。 部屋はDeluxe beach villaにしました。とても部屋が広く快適でした。 築年数が経過しているため少し部屋の古さは感じました。 しかし、島全体を通しての古さは全く感じません。
下記は私が島で印象に残ったスタッフです。
担当のアイランドホストはMusaさんです。 アイランドホストからはWhatsAppを使用して、迅速に質問の回答や予約対応をしていただきました。 すれ違う際もいつも笑顔で挨拶してくれました。
毎日様々なイベントを企画されています。 特におすすめは金曜夜にCaptain's Berで開催されるMusical NightはJonaさんとRomeoさんの素敵な歌唱と演奏を必ず聴くべきです!! 私たちが日本人のため、別の日にThe Lagoonのディナーに参加した際に2曲日本の歌も披露してくれました。 素敵な2人組でした。
また、Fireshowの2人組も絶対に見てください!! とてもかっこいいですよ。 顔も覚えていただきすれ違う度に挨拶していただき嬉しかったです。 スタッフの方の名前が分からずすみません。
清掃もベッドメイキングから床清掃まで毎日2回入っていただけます。丁寧かつ、在室時も希望の清掃時間を確認していただき、笑顔で接していただきました。名前を確認できなかったのですが117号室の清掃をしていただいた方です。
食事はオールインクルーシブにて朝昼夜と毎日新しい料理が食べられます。Rahulさんに提案していただき有料ですがシーフード料理も用意していただきました。机もお花と装飾でとてもオシャレで満足度が高いです。いつも座席も気にかけてくださって、私たちの好むプールと海がよく見える席をいつも案内してくれました。Dharamveerさん、Jahangirさんもいつも丁寧かつ笑顔で接客していただきました。名前をあげた3人共毎日会うと声をかけてくださって、いつも近くの席を選んで座りました。 厨房や受付にもたくさんのスタッフがおり皆さん優しく、毎回楽しい食事でした。
6泊滞在しましたが本当に夢のような時間でした。ここにも書ききれないことが沢山あります。サンセットフィッシング、カヌー、バドミントントーナメントなど、全部楽しい時間でした。まだまだ遊び足りないくらいです。
私が英語を全く話せなかったのが最も悔しいところです。 スタッフの方ともっと沢山話したかった。 また英語を練習して絶対に遊びに行きます!!
We had a truly wonderful honeymoon!! It takes just 20 minutes by speedboat from the airport to arrive. Despite being close to the airport, the sea is crystal clear, and we were able to observe plenty of fish, sharks, and rays up close. All the staff members were polite and kind. We stayed in a Deluxe Beach Villa; the room was very spacious and comfortable. Although the room showed some signs of age, the island itself didn't feel old at all.
Here are some of the staff members who left a lasting impression on us:
Our assigned Island Host was Musa. Musa handled our questions and reservations quickly via WhatsApp. He always greeted us with a smile whenever we crossed paths.
Various events are organized daily. We highly recommend the "Musical Night" held on Friday evenings at Captain's Bar; you simply must hear the wonderful singing and performances by Jona and Romeo!! Since we are Japanese, they even performed two Japanese songs for us when we dined at The Lagoon on another night. They were a fantastic duo.
You also absolutely have to see the fire show duo!! They were incredibly cool. It was lovely that they remembered our faces and greeted us whenever we ran into them. I apologize for not knowing their names.
Housekeeping services—including bed-making and floor cleaning—were provided twice daily. The service was meticulous; they checked our preferred cleaning times when we were in the room and always interacted with us with a smile. I didn't catch the name, but the person who cleaned Room 117 was excellent.
With the all-inclusive plan, we enjoyed new dishes for breakfast, lunch, and dinner every day. At Rahul's suggestion, we also arranged a seafood meal (for an additional fee). The table was stylishly decorated with flowers, making for a highly satisfying experience. Rahul was always attentive to our seating preferences, consistently guiding us to tables with great views of the pool and the ocean. Dharamveer and Jahangir always provided courteous service with a smile. All three of them would greet me whenever we crossed paths, so I always chose to sit at a nearby table. There were many other friendly staff members in the kitchen and at the reception as well, making every meal a delightful experience.
I stayed for six nights, and it was truly a dream-like time. There is so much more I could write about. Activities like sunset fishing, canoeing, and the badminton tournament were all so much fun—I feel like I could have stayed and played even longer.
My biggest regret is that I couldn't speak English at all. I really wish I could have conversed more with the staff. I am definitely going to practice my English and come back to visit!
Our honeymoon could not have been in a more perfect place. 🏝️💙 We stayed in an overwater villa with an absolutely incredible view. The room was huge, comfortable, and had everything we needed to make the most of our stay.
The water is crystal clear and incredibly clean, and the marine life is simply amazing. We had the opportunity to go snorkeling and see hundreds of different species of fish, as well as sharks and real rays. It is definitely an experience that will stay with us forever.
Another highlight was the staff, who were always very polite, helpful, and attentive — something I consider essential in a place like this.
I would especially like to mention our personal host, Miss Akmo, who was available 24/7 to help us with anything we needed. She was extremely helpful throughout our entire stay and made everything so much easier for us, allowing us to simply relax and enjoy our honeymoon.
If I had to mention one area for improvement, it would be the buffet. There is a good variety of food, but we felt that the selection was somewhat focused on Asian and Western cuisine. It would be nice to have a wider range of options from other types of cuisine as well.
Overall, it was an incredible experience in a true paradise, and a place that will always have a special place in our memories. 🌴❤️
An Amazing Stay at Villa Nautica Resort Our stay at Villa Nautica Resort was absolutely amazing! From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with such warmth and kindness, and the entire experience exceeded our expectations. A special thank you to Riya, who welcomed us so beautifully and went above and beyond throughout our stay. She was always available and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed and that we were comfortable. Her hospitality truly made our stay even more special. The water villa was beautiful, spacious, clean, and incredibly relaxing, with the perfect setting to enjoy the beauty of the Maldives. The views were breathtaking, and the villa was kept exceptionally clean throughout our stay. The food was another highlight of our experience. Everything we had was delicious and well prepared, with a great variety of options to choose from. There was something for everyone, and we genuinely looked forward to every meal! The waiters and the entire staff were exceptional friendly, professional, kind, and always ready to assist with a smile. Their warmth and attentiveness made us feel genuinely welcomed and well taken care of throughout our stay. Villa Nautica gave us such a beautiful and memorable Maldivian experience, and we would happily come back again. A huge thank you to Riya and the entire team for making our stay so special. Highly recommended!
