What a experience.. Absolutely of 10 points! Especially we need to give the thanks to Sujata (Suzy) to make our stay memorable, she helped me in a special celebration during all time and she surprised us with more details. The rooms are very clean 2 times each day, the breakfast is very good, there are lot of types of food, also in the dinner if you choose the half board, is not a buffet, it is a la carte and the dishes are very good.

The service was exceptional! From warm friendly greetings the moment we arrived to waving us goodbye as we left. Sujata was attentive and dedicated in ensuring we were comfortable and enjoyed the most of our stay. Noyon was detailed in tidying up our villa and keeping it clean. The property is extremely well-maintained and clean. Highly impressive! We had a most amazing time at Baros and will certainly recommend.

We returned to Baros for a 2-week holiday having much enjoyed a stay there in 2025. It really is the most perfect small island. We were in a beach-side villa and chose not to have a pool as the sea was just inches away across a narrow beach. We snorkelled endlessly over the extensive fringing reef. Other guests were scuba-diving on further reefs or night-snorkelling with a guide. All the staff, whatever their roles, were so friendly and helpful. Our allocated “butler” was always available to help with whatever we needed. The level of service is top-class and seems to spring from a genuine desire to ensure guests have the best time possible. On our “dine-around” package we could eat each night at the restaurant of our choice. All 3 restaurants have lovely locations and their variety and quality of cuisine was quite exceptional. Our flight home was delayed by 2 hours but Baros typically went out of its way to let us enjoy that extra time on the island and not in the airport. We would love to return to Baros soon!

Baros is a magical island. The atmosphere is so intimate that you often feel like you are the only ones on the island. Privacy is absolute. The villas are luxurious but not overly ostentatious, furnished with impeccable taste and very welcoming.The hospitality is of the highest standard. Food and beverage are of top quality, with a well-curated, attentive, and warm service.A special mention goes to our butler Bonan efficient, always present yet discreet, and attentive to every single detail.The lessons with Ambra, the marine biologist, were very interesting; she explained so much about the magnificent Maldives and their marine inhabitants. Wonderful, we will definitely return!

We spent our honeymoon and first time in Maldives at Baros and it was one of the rare moments when reality is better than dreams. The experience of dining, diving and even idling here was wonderful not just because of the beautiful nature of the island but also because of the top-notch services and hospitality the professional staff provided. We tried probably the best lobster bisque and authentic cuisines cooked by great chefs at the restaurants, swam with beautiful marine creatures in the ocean guided by an experienced coach, and had our activities smoothly arranged by our capable butler. We felt so at home and that everything was tailored for our needs. We also got to learn so much about the place, the ingredients and wines, and the environment. The scenic views and great services have surely been mentioned by many, but one more thing that impressed me was the effort the whole team put in sustainability. The resort avoided using plastic products, so there was no plastic toothbrushes, plastic bottles, plastic bags in the bins, and even the bath puff was made of loofah. At the back-of-house tour we also learned how the resort made effort to reduce and recycle waste. Thanks to Sam, Totto, Umar and many other great staff members at Baros, it was a romantic, relaxing, fun and also educational experience for us. We’d love to visit again.
