I stayed in Villa 208. It has a great location, lots of greenery around, and is very private. For swimming, you only need to step out to the beach, which is a 15-meter walk. If any issues or questions arose, our butler Saeed solved them very quickly. We really enjoyed everything, and I recommend this hotel for a quiet and quality rest.

My wife and I absolutely loved this experience. It is more than a hotel or resort, this is an experience. The island is the resort. The rooms were outstanding and the staff over the top. The butler handled everything from reservations to room issues. Food was expensive but terrific. Honestly, even the cheeseburger on the beach was outstanding. Breakfasts were perfect. Beach great. I highly recommend this experience. Over the top.

This is an exceptional resort. It is on a small island but idyllic and of the highest quality. It is only 20 minutes from Male by boat. The villas are well appointed and have beautiful views of the ocean. Food is real quality. Staff are outstanding. We had the luxury of a butler Saeed who looked after us very well and made sure we didn’t miss out on what the resort had to offer. Shafeed looked after our villa each day so well. The sandy beach is stunning, the water the warmest and bluest you could even imagine. We had 6 terrific days.

Baros! What a wonderful, delightful experience. Our concierge, Sujata was the very best we had experienced ANYWHERE in the world. Her professional, warm, detailed and attentive style made our over-water-villa stay special. Wherever we went on the Baros campus (restaurants, bars, cocktail parties, and dive shop) the staff called us by name (how do they do that?!). Our out of this world accommodations provided a private, cozy, romantic get-away and food choices were wide and delicious!

We had a fantastic time at Baros. The reef is fantastic for snorkeling - so many sharks and colorful fish. The food was very good and our butler Saeed so friendly and sympathetic! Thank you for this great time!
