Hotels Own Introduction
A Timeless Maldivian Paradise
Turquoise waters kiss white-sand shores, and towering palms sway in the breeze. Welcome to Baros, a natural sanctuary just 25 minutes by speedboat from the Maldives’ international airport. Since 1973, we’ve been perfecting the art of hospitality, curating an island retreat that has become one of the most beloved resorts in the Maldives. Let us show you what makes Baros so special.
Immersed in Nature, Surrounded by Beauty
Nestled within a lush jungle canopy, Baros offers a secluded escape where the sounds of the sea blend with rustling leaves. Whether you choose a villa over the water or tucked along the island’s shoreline, you’ll be surrounded by the blues and greens of this tropical paradise. Greet the morning in perfect stillness, stargaze from your deck at night, or snorkel through the vibrant house reef just a short paddle away.
A Private World of Comfort and Serenity
Each villa at Baros is a world of its own, designed for privacy, relaxation, and effortless luxury. Step aboard a traditional dhoni for a romantic dinner cruise, indulge in a gourmet meal on the exclusive Piano Deck, or sip cocktails at sunset at The Lighthouse. With five decades of culinary mastery, Baros offers a dining experience that blends time-honored classics with bold, innovative flavors from around the world.
A Sanctuary for the Senses
Hidden among the trees, Serenity Spa invites you to escape into a world of indulgence. Whether you seek a few hours of relaxation or a curated wellness journey, our spa offers daily yoga sessions, rejuvenating massages, and bespoke treatments designed to restore balance. For a truly unique experience, request a yoga session anywhere on the island or enjoy a spa ritual in the privacy of your villa.
Endless Adventures, Unforgettable Moments
The crystal-clear lagoon calls you to explore—swim with turtles, glide over coral gardens, or set sail beyond the atoll in search of new horizons. As the day fades, raise a glass of champagne and toast to another extraordinary Baros moment. Here, a world of unforgettable experiences awaits.
