We had a wonderful stay at Baros Maldives. They took care of us from the moment we arrived at the airport until we left. All staff went above and beyond to make our stay unforgettable. Sujata was an amazing host and made sure we had everything we needed during our stay. We really appreciate everything and we look forward to coming back with family one day.

Our stay at Baros Maldives was absolutely wonderful! The island is peaceful, relaxing, and beautifully romantic — a perfect place to unwind and recharge. The food was delicious and beautifully presented, every meal exceeded our expectations. A special thanks to our private host Bonan and our room attendant Noyon for their warm hospitality and thoughtful service throughout our stay. Baros is truly a paradise, and we can’t wait to come back again!

Just got back from Baros during china national holiday—what an island. The villas are decades old yet immaculate, the gardens so lush every walk feels like a stroll through a private jungle. And the food: three restaurants, all top-tier. Thursday’s seafood buffet = lobster on repeat; Lighthouse steak is the best I’ve ever had; the grill’s beef ribs are legendary. Snorkeling delivered turtles, rays, and a rainbow of fish. Special shout-out to our butler Anas—every request handled instantly and flawlessly from arrival to departure. We’ll be back.

Second time around staying at Baros, Maldives with the last visit being 3 years ago. This time stayed in the over water villa with pool (319-partial sunset view). Amazingly managed to spot a turtle one morning from Villa's boardwalk. Plenty of black tipped reef sharks and rays to be seen without even venturing into the water. Did the House Reef Snorkeling and Snorkeling Safari with Naaiz who sent photos later via email and this was all included in the price. I also appreciated the fact that even though there were only 2 people for the Snorkeling Safari by boat, they carried on and did not cancel it. Food all round delicious at Cayenne (we really enjoyed the steaks and the Teppanyaki counter dinner), The Sail and at Lime restaurants (Lobster curry - always a winner! And thank you for the breakfast Dosa :)). We especially liked the fact that for breakfast there was a fruit station with someone actually cutting and recommending all the various fruits. We also did sessions with energy-healer Emilie Chanon - visiting practitioner at Baros and enjoyed improving our mental, emotional and spiritual well-being with Emilie. Big thank you to all the staff who made our time there so enjoyable and especially : Rauyaan our excellent, cheerful and attentive Butler/host; Aravind who made sure our room was in tip-top condition everyday; Lily and April at the Spa (90 min massages so good); Shimla, Allson, Hardy, Lama, Don, Sukma, Sid, Masei, Dayu, Munna, Ali, Lakshita, Kiara, Rifauh and Nasym. Transfers wise from Male to the resort and return all good and fully accompanied by ground staff. See you again soon Baros!

We have been back on Baros for almost a week now, and even though it is not peak season, we have everything we need. All of the staff on the island give their best every day and leave nothing to be desired. Even on my second visit here, I am once again pleasantly surprised by how everyone gives their best and always greets you with a smile. At the moment, I can't imagine a better place to spend such a wonderful vacation. We still have nine more days here, which we will enjoy to the fullest. My heart already aches when I think about saying goodbye.
