We had a wonderful stay at Baros. From the moment we were welcomed onto the island it felt like a second home. We split our time there, first staying in one of the Water Pool Villas. These were beautiful and spacious, with direct access to the water for snorkelling. The pool was a highlight and worth the upgrade from the standard water villa. The island itself is like a tropical paradise, rich in wildlife. There are 4 restaurants on the island with a variety of cuisine and excellent food. Breakfast each morning was delicious, with so many options to choose from. Half way through our stay we moved to a Baros Suite. These are massive suites, newly decorated, to a very high standard. They have an outdoor shower, which we loved and a large private deck area and large pool. They are very private with direct access to what feels like your own beach. There are lots of activities, a highlight for us was the dolphin sunset cruise and the kayaking. Baros has a one of a kind house reef. Snorkelling equipment is provided complimentary from the diving center, which you can keep in your room to use during your stay. The snorkelling there is amazing, swimming with colourful fish, rays, black tip reef sharks and turtles. What made our stay extra special was our butler Saeed. Saeed was so kind, and couldn’t do enough for us, from the moment we arrived to waving us goodbye at the end of a truly unforgettable stay. This was our first time visiting the Maldives and we would highly recommend Baros. We can’t wait to visit again soon!

Amazing place and location (20 mins from airport by speedboat and has a stunning reef) Food is top quality but be prepared to pay top dollar as well if you want to really enjoy nice meals each evenings. (Fortunately I was prepared thanks to other helpful reviews!) Staff are absolutely excellent (and are well looked after by management which is very important) - Reema, Hardy, Sugar and Marie (the last two being diving instructors/ marine biology experts) and the whole team did an amazing job to make our stay special. Thank you Baros team!

This is the ultimate luxurious Robinson Crusoe Maldivian experience. A small intimate, boutique hotel. The reef is excellent, teeming with marine life. Then of course is the wonderful service. Saeed was absolutely fantastic and nice to get to chat to Maldivians given the resort set up in the tourism industry in Maldives. The villa was superb including the house keeping (Thanks to Nahed (sorry not sure of spelling). The food was delicious too. A truly 5 star experience all round.

This is one of the smallest islands we visited in the Maldives. But this has its own charm. All temporary and permanent residents of the island know each other and this creates a special atmosphere. There are 3 good restaurants on the island, a bar, and live music in the evenings. Friendly and caring staff. I especially want to mention our battler Reema.
