Baros Maldives
Our rating
TripadvisorBased on 6,874 reviews
A Maldivian legend since 1973 - **strapline**
Baros has been on the scene for decades, so it knows a thing or two about exceptional hospitality. Choose to stay on the sandy shore with direct beach access or in an over-water thatched pool villa where you can look out to the lagoon from your private pool. Either way, you’re in for a relaxing retreat. When it’s time to explore, Baros has a sensational infinity pool, a splendid spa, and a house reef teeming with marine life. If you’re looking for something extra special, the team at Baros know exactly how to put on a show. Possibilities include an exclusive dinner for two on the piano deck, set above the water on the lagoon, or a private sunset voyage to watch dolphins play – but the options are plentiful.
Introduction text WEB
With its dazzling sands and coral lagoon, Baros is possibly the most picture perfect of all of the Maldives islands. An intimate resort providing a complete luxury escape, its timeless, elegant facilities include the architecturally spectacular The Lighthouse restaurant with its tented white roof, and the exclusive Piano Deck offering yoga, massages or dinner on a deck isolated in the middle of a sparkling lagoon.
There’s a real focus here on the bespoke – as well as restaurant dining, there are private dining options available at any location of your choice; spa packages can be tailored to suit you; the diving is ‘by design’; and experiences range from personalised adventure to pure romance. A main swimming pool was added a few years ago – and in true Baros style, it's not your average pool. The overwater deck surrounding the Lime restaurant was extended to create a large overwater infinity pool; the perfect way to introduce a shared pool to this small island without compromising its natural, tranquil environment.
An intimate resort providing a complete luxury escape, Baros is where style meets simplicity.

Why our experts like it
What the people who book this hotel say about staying there.
If you love French cuisine, look no further than La Belle Vie
An incredible way to kick off your Maldives holiday
“There's something pretty special about travelling by seaplane. The view from the sky is extraordinary - tiny specs of island and shades of blue that barely look real.”
Jeremy FisherKuoni Travel Expert
The iconic, mile-long sandbank
Perfect for isolated sunbathing, dramatic photoshoots, and watching breathtaking Maldivian sunsets.
Snorkelling and diving isn't the only way to catch sight of the underwater world
“If snorkelling and diving isn't for you, it's possible to catch a glimpse of the reef from a glass-bottomed boat instead.”

Food & drink
Baros has given some serious thought to the menus and locations of its dining options. Three restaurants are complemented by well-positioned bars where you can watch the sunset, listen to live music or the gentle lapping of the lagoon. As well as the restaurants, you can plan an extra special dinner on a sunset cruise or on the hotel’s candlelit piano deck. Breakfast at Lime Restaurant is included daily but consider if a meal plan upgrade might suit you best.
Restaurants and bars
Baros has given some serious thought to the menus and locations of its dining options. A restaurant with a real ‘wow’ factor, The Lighthouse is its crowning glory. A rarity in the Maldives for its elevation and panoramic views, it is architecturally spectacular; its tented white roof sail-like over the turquoise lagoon. Head upstairs to the lounge with its glorious views over the lagoon and let the sommelier recommend you a fine wine before heading to the restaurant below to dine on gourmet cuisine, such as fresh seafood with Asian flavours.
The Cayenne Grill offers casual al fresco dining and a satay bar, and at the overwater Lime Restaurant there’s all day dining with buffet breakfasts and à la carte menus later in the day. Sails Bar is a stunning open-sided cocktail bar, with an impressive range of drinks and plenty of seating outside under the palms.
Bar & Restaurant Our Pick — There isn’t a view quite like the one from The Lighthouse. Whether you go for dinner or just for sundowners, an evening here promises to be memorable.

Frequently asked questions
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a visa to visit the Maldives?
British passport holders are issued a free 30-day visitor visa on arrival. You'll need a passport valid for the duration of your stay, a confirmed onward ticket and proof of your accommodation booking.
When is the best time to visit the Maldives?
November to April is the dry season, with the most reliable sunshine and calmest seas. May to October brings shorter rain showers, lower prices and better surf.
What currency is used in the Maldives, and do I need cash?
The local currency is the Maldivian rufiyaa, but resorts price and bill in US dollars and take major cards. Most guests never need cash — a small amount is handy for tipping.
Is the Maldives good for honeymoons outside peak season?
Yes. Off-peak brings noticeably lower rates and quieter islands, and rain tends to come in short bursts rather than all day. Many resorts add honeymoon extras during these months.
What activities are there for older kids and teens in the Maldives?
Most resorts run watersports centres with windsurfing, kayaking and paddleboarding, plus PADI dive courses from around age ten. Snorkelling safaris, sandbank trips and night fishing all suit older children.
