This is a peaceful retreat. The service is incredible, they are there but don't hassle you all the time asking if everything is alright. The transfers both to and fro from the airport are seamless we have been here five times and never had a problem. The food is really good with plenty of options. The reef has many fish,despite having rain most of the week we saw turtles,sharks,ray and over a 100 different fish. The reef is easily accessible from the shore in both low and high tide.

We have been on many trips around the world. The Baros Maldives trips is hands down the greatest trip. I think the beauty of the place is found in the size of the place and the services. The island is not huge and sprawling. Therefore, everything is at your fingertips. Want a massage? Walk 2 minutes over here. Want a GOOD bite to eat? Walk 3 minutes over here. Want a drink, a smoke, and to play some billiards? Walk 3 minutes here. Want to snorkel on a reef that other visitors on other islands have to travel an hour to do? Walk 5 minutes over here. They have their own house reef (which is rare in Maldives) with every possible marine animal you can imagine. Tons of colorful fish, colorful corals, sharks (do not worry they are not bad), rays, lobsters, turtles…a lot. Want to just chill in a pool? Well you probably have one in your villa, so walk 10 seconds to it. Or walk 3 minutes to the infinity pool. All of this is at your hands, so there is no wasted time. Instead of trying to figure out where you are going, you are already there enjoying. You cannot put a price on time, and this resort is a time-saver. The best vacation, and we have visited 30 countries. Shout out to our butler Reema, and attendant Shah. They were the best. Yes, you have a butler and attendant 24/7. Did I forget to mention that?

Baros is a dream destination, located in between a lagoon and a beautiful reef. By the way, the house reef is incredible and you can spot many species, including sharks, turtles, rays and hundreds of species of fish. The staff is super friendly and the breakfast is one of the best I’ve ever had. I would definitely recommend it and I want to go back.

It is our 3rd visit to Baros (9 in the Maldives) and I must say that never stops from amazing us. A beautiful resort, with amazing staff and incredible elegance. The house reef is matured and once can see an abundance of marine life, from black tip sharks to turtles.

If you are looking for a 5 star luxury boutique set on a private island with impeccable but not overly solicitous service look no further. Breakfast…best I’ve ever had. Reef snorkeling…unbelievable. Baros is the jewel of the Maldives celebrating 50 years but looks brand new. There’s a reason it was one of the first resorts! Ideal location and top reef. Thanks to Lala, Upsy and Hasir. See u again soon!

Where to start! I have travelled and been to many 5* hotels what I loved and found unique about the Baros hotel was the happiness and kindness of the staff. It was just such a positive happy place! I highly recommend booking the water villa and our favorite restaurant was the lighthouse. They have an amazing spa to not miss! Snorkeling there was like swimming in an aquarium so many things to see you absolutely breathtaking Overall book this hotel, I tried different ones in Maldives and this is by far my favorite one - they offer great perks for Expedia members

Our stay at the property was a really pleasant experience. A hotel representative was waiting at the airport as we exited the airport and took us straight to our private luxury boat transport. The boat staff was really courteous and served us chilled drinks. As we reached the property after a short 25 minutes ride, Our hostess & the Reception manager were waiting at the jetty. They took us straight to our over water villa and the check in was done from the villa while we were settling in. It was really smooth process and our hostess provided all the details about the property and created a whats app group through which we could communicate to her. The property was on a private island with a really nice lagoon around it. Sea life was abundant in the lagoon . We had couple of chances to snorkel and absolutely loved it. We did the half board plan and the restaurant had plenty of good options for breakfast and dinner. We loved the SPA and the staff. Sunrise and the blue water is something that will stay in our mind forever. Overall would really recommend the place for a romantic Getaway
