The Nautilus Maldives Unveils "Nomadic Journeys" - A Free Spirited Festive Celebration
This festive season, The Nautilus Maldives invites discerning travellers to escape the ordinary and step into a world where time stands still and celebration flows freely. From 21 December 2025 to 6 January 2026, guests will embark on Nomadic Journeys—a soulful, unscripted holiday experience set on the shores of the Maldives’ most liberating private island hideaway.
Rooted in The Nautilus’s philosophy of absolute freedom and individuality, Nomadic Journeys is a call to the dreamers, the seekers, and the wanderers at heart. The private island transforms into an eclectic bohemian haven—where glowing lanterns dance in the breeze, artistic treasures ignite curiosity, and barefoot elegance meets soulful connection.
This year’s programme is a vibrant tapestry of celebration woven with the universal
languages of art, music, movement, and culinary exploration. Each moment is designed to awaken the senses and nourish the spirit.
Programme Highlights Include:
Artful Celebrations & Soulful Evenings
• The Christmas Boho Soirée and Beachside New Year’s Eve Gala Dinner blend global flavours, enchanting performances, and soulful music under the stars.
• The Art of Bohemia showcases traditional Maldivian Boduberu rhythms and artisanal cocktails, with live painting featured on select evenings as an ode to island artistry.
Immersive Wellness & Mindful Rituals
• Daily sunrise yoga sessions like The First Flow and Stillness in Motion honour the rhythm of the sea and soul.
• Curated wellness experiences include crystal bowl meditations, spa journeys like The Radiance of the Dunes and transformative fire rituals such as Fireside Release.
Culinary Voyages Across Continents
• A nomadic dining series led by The Nautilus’s executive chef Christopher Terry and his team of award-winning chefs features degustation dinners paired with fine wines and bespoke cocktails. Signature experiences include Chef’s Table by the Sea, Flavours of the Levant, and the exquisite Dom Pérignon Seafood Degustation at Zeytoun.
Family & Connection-Centric Moments

Throughout the celebration, The Nautilus embraces the spirit of eclecticism—honouring individuality, culture, and creativity. From Maldivian craft workshops to Silk Road-inspired décor, the island becomes a canvas of contrasting yet harmonious experiences.
“This festive season is not a schedule. It’s a journey—a soulful escape crafted for those who dare to wander,” says Adan Gomez, The Nautilus General Manager. “Here, guests are invited to explore, create, and simply be, in a place where every moment feels spontaneous, meaningful, and unforgettable.”
