Upon arriving to the island via a beautiful speedboat trip, my wife Amanda and I were greeted by Shijah, the island manager. We had an in-depth conversation about the resort and its amenities. Shijah then handed us his personal card. He was insistent that, should we need anything, we reach out to him; that he and his team would take care of it as quickly as possible. Next, was our designated assistant and main point of contact Riffau. He was ON POINT. One of our bags had not made it through our layover flight. When we told him, he said he would take care of it with the airline himself. The second it landed in the Male airport Riffau had notified us. Before we returned to our room he had brought it there for us. After morning strolls on the beach and sun filled days, we found ourselves lingering in the restaurants. The main reason was the hospitality and great conversation with the staff. Most impressionable: Shaarif. What started out very cordial and proper turned into funny jokes and trading stories about our families. We have already begun telling friends and family about how great our trip was and how amazing the staff at Baros had treated us. Some of the details which set Baros apart were the awesome massages, delicious variety of foods, the beautiful and clear water, the stunning sea life (visible within the island reef or out further on the excursions), and my personal favorite: the cold towels always at the ready for me. We will definitely be back for some rest, relaxation, and memories with amazing people. Thank you Baros for being such gracious hosts to us on our honeymoon. -Chris Mitchell…
We arrived at the airport and was met by the representative that immediately escorted us to the speed boat. We did not wait. We were at the resort in 25 mins and then the experience of a lifetime started. We have been to the maldives more than 15 times and this resort was the best we ever experience. The room was gorgeous and spacious and the pool was the right temperature and beautifully private. The best part was the excellent service that the Manager -Shazeel and the Front office manager gave us throughout the stay. It was our anniversary and they arranged the sandbank dinner for us that was so romantic. This is the most romantic hotel and the food is delicious. The restaurants were out of this world. From the breakfast to the elaborate dinners. Prawns and lobster every night if you wish. The lighthouse served the best cocktails for sun downers. The setting is beautiful. We can’t wait to be back. Thanks to the great team at Baros. This exceeded all our expectations. …
Spent my honeymoon at Baros Maldives and I am so glad I did! It was amazing, literally a paradise. The staff was so nice and very professional, honestly I cannot think of a resort with a more courteous staff as Baros, they were super attentive to all our requests. My wife is gluten-free and they took extra care in making sure her special diet was accommodated, even if the dish was not specifically shown to have a gluten-free option, they went the extra mile in creating the dish gluten-free for her. Our villa was great super peaceful and quiet. Easy to book activities and dinner reservations. One of our favorite memories is the breakfast, amazing selection of different breakfast foods. Of course, the water was great to snorkel and swim in. Baros has the biggest reef in all of Maldives and it was beautiful to see whole reef while snorkeling. All in all, an amazing honeymoon trip, I do not regret choosing this place over the other options I was considering. We were sad to leave.…
BAROS EXPERIENCE Male airport arrival and departure We got such a personalized experience; from the arrival time till we reach the resort around 5 people are welcoming us using our names. Mr. Aniss welcomed us and gave us an overview of Male and Baros. He is such a nice welcoming person who supported us during arrival and departure and stayed with us till the last minutes to make sure we don’t face any difficulties. Big thanks to him. Baros arrival Again you feel special by coming to this Island. The staff welcomed us with cold refreshing towels and drinks. Then explained to us what they have on the island. After that, they introduced us to our gust experience representative, Ms. Asrita Sukma who was with us during our stay. She took us on an amazing welcoming tour while explaining the daily schedule and activities accruing during that day. For easy requisition and booking, Ms. Sukma created a WhatsApp group for any communication needed. We place our food orders, room cleaning, and restaurant and tour booking through this group. And always get an instant response. Ms. Sukma is very welcoming, supporting, anticipating our needs, and looking after a special personalized service. A huge thank you to Ms. Sukma. Activities experience Room We got water with a private pool and ocean view. The room was comfortable, clean, elegant, and has everything needed. You will never need to go out!

I have to appreciate the pleasant and comfortable stay we had at Baros. Thank you to Shijah and his team for their hospitality and warmth. Beautiful property and attentive staff. Special thanks for arranging a visit to your other property for water sports.
We had the most amazing time on our honeymoon at Baros. I had been dreaming about this trip for so long; and it exceeded our expectations! Special thanks to Hasir, Cooti, Affa, and so many more of the AMAZING staff there who made us feel like family. The food and drink are spectacular, and you can tell the staff perfect every detail that goes into a guests' experience. Since we went during monsoon season, the island was only at about 30% capacity which made it all the more special and private for us! We loved the snorkeling there at Baros as well as during the excursions. We will dream of the day we can come back! Thank you Baros!
One of the best hotels if not the number one in Maldives, it’s not only the amazing location and view, it’s all about the service and amazing host, what an amazing service in all levels. Me and my husband felt like king and queen I highly recommend, thanks to all people who made our anniversary the best. looking forward for our next year visit, thank u Baros
My family and I spent a week at the Baros Maldives resort and had a phenomenal time on the island. Above all, the staff provided an outstanding service, not only satisfying all our demands but going far beyond our expectations. I had the chance to have my birthday dinner on this holiday, and the pastry chef, Gihan Maduranga (gihandmaduranga846@gmail.com), baked an unbelievable hand-crafted cake which tasted even better than it looked (pictured)! Furthermore, our personal villa host, Rifaau, did an excellent job helping us settle in and ensuring we were comfortable throughout our stay. The assortment of dining at the Baros resort was also unmatched with its four restaurants, offering an array of delicious meals to enjoy throughout our stay on the island. We stayed in the Water Villas which were simply beautiful and the housekeeping staff did a great job maintaining the villas' cleanliness. We also enjoyed the superb selection of activities, including the night snorkeling which was an unforgettable experience. Overall, my family and I thoroughly enjoyed our time at the Baros resort and very much look forward to coming back soon!…
Baros is a very nice place to relax. Sita the villa host is very responsive and helpful with everything. Teppanyaki chef Abdul he’s an excellent chef, amazing experience and food. Henry was a good guide for our snorkeling and took us amazing pictures!
I spent almost two weeks at Baros with a goal to rest and recover and learn how to dive. It was a truly amazing experience and I definitely see myself returning to Baros. I stayed in a villa on the beach which I highly recommend - it was beautifully nestled in the lush greenery. What made the stay truly memorable were the amazing staff who took such great care of me. A special big thank you to Vishan, Mode, Kopila, Madhu, Buddika for making sure I had such an excellent time and for making me feel at home. And a big thank you and shout out to Shuga for being such an excellent diving instructor and helping me achieve a goal of mine. Thanks for the spectacular dives! If you love diving this is the place for you!
