The Right package for the Perfect Family: Easter at The Nautilus Maldives

26 March, 2022

The Nautilus Maldives offers special family packages throughout the year, inviting you to reconnect with your nearest and dearest, to savour meaningful moments, to make magical memories. This April, the resort's Easter package is one of Nautilus' favourites: it offers the perfect pause from your busy life to cherish these very things – and more – as you’ll discover as you read on.

1. Escape to a dream world – and the dreams of your childhood

The Maldives is synonymous with enchanting natural beauty, the stuff of dreams. Once you step onto the pristine shores of The Nautilus, you step into a wonderland, a piece of paradise, and the cares of the world slide off your shoulders. It’s a dreamworld that greets you at every corner – whether you’re wandering white sands, waking up slowly in the luxurious comfort of your bed, dining in decadence at our restaurants or al fresco, or gliding across smooth seas.

And during a time of Easter celebration, The Nautilus is the most magical backdrop for family feasts, fun games, island-style egg hunts and fond recollections of childhood traditions. It’s the perfect setting for connecting with loved ones – and with the light-hearted nostalgia of your childhood dreams.

2. Family-friendly: for the young – and young at heart

The Nautilus team has designed a range of activities that bring all generations together, to create moments that that will linger as cherished memories. Our family kayak racing event is a highlight on the calendar, testing not only your athletic prowess but also your ability to work as a team – and laugh together when things go awry! Other family activities include snorkelling scavenger hunts, dolphin cruises, Maldivian cooking classes and coral reef planting. And not to be missed is a private Easter afternoon tea served in a secluded island location.

3. Endless enchantment for Young Wonderers

Of course, sometimes kids need something that caters specifically to their age – and sometimes parents need a break from the kids! Our Young Wonderers programme offers the ideal solution: a smorgasbord of playful adventure and fun discoveries to engage the body and the mind. Under the expert supervision of childcare professionals, your children can expect days filled with nature walks, pool parties, Maldivian palm leaf origami, movie parties and a host of Easter-themed crafts and games like chocolate hunting, funny bunny gymnastics and Easter bracelet making. Whatever your child’s needs or tastes, we have something just for them.

4. Rediscover free-spirited adventure and sweet moments

Our more mature guests won’t miss out on any of the fun! Besides the incredible year-round experiences The Nautilus offers, the team has added some select events and adventures to delight and revive you. So shrug off your cares, reconnect with a youthful sense of wonder and jump into some of the things we have in store.

With Easter being a time for feasting, many of the calendar highlights promise foodies a rich buffet of options to indulge in. If you’re looking to learn something new, why not try a masterclass in sake – hosted by Executive Chef (and sake master) Michael Pataran. Of course, we can’t forget the chocolate masterclass – a must for chocoholics who may, or may not, choose to share their creations with their loved ones. For those looking for a more leisurely learning experience, we highly recommend a blind champagne tasting – a moment to savour both the best of bubblies and exquisite culinary pairings.

5. Meaningful celebration days

Eastertime heralds a period of reflection for many, a significant time for meditating on new life and the meaning of the season. And these are also days for celebrating life’s sweetest gifts – moments with your people. As such, The Nautilus has created beautiful ways to mark the holy days.

Our world-class restaurants will host spectacular brunches on both Good Friday and Easter Sunday, where the whole family is invited to gather for the freshest pasta, sushi and tropical fruit as well as crisp prosecco and gourmet milkshakes. You can also look forward to the uplifting acoustic sounds of live music.

On Easter Sunday itself, wake up to a floating breakfast in your private infinity pool, followed by an Easter egg hunt, an exhilarating SUP race, a reviving yoga session, and, at sunset, a beach bonfire with live, traditional boduberu music.

6. A Season of Wonders

On top of all the wonders of Easter, this season on the island is magical in other ways too. April is our dry season in the Maldives, which brings with it perfect conditions for enjoying the climate – think days basking in the warm ocean, the gentle tides and maximum sunshine.

There are many wonderful reasons to celebrate Easter at The Nautilus, and it’s a list sure to grow as you add your own, personal anecdotes and favourite moments while enjoying your stay with us. Do explore The Nautilus Easter program to learn more,
