Baros Maldives

Baros Maldives, North Male Atoll, Maldives

Baros Maledives is a small coral island in the Indian Ocean ringed by a sun-kissed beach and a vibrant house reef, within easy reach by speedboat from the Maldives International Airport, day and night. Baros Maldives has a rich heritage, reflecting the essence of the Maldives. The third resort to open in the Maldives (in December 1973), it is still setting the benchmark for a romantic, luxury holiday with genuine, heartfelt Maldivian hospitality. It has a reliable reputation; consistently winning prestigious awards from guests and travel professionals for quality accommodation and outstanding service excellence. Baros Maldives warmly welcomes guests and everyone is treated as someone special, known to staff by name, not villa number. The ambience at Baros Maldives provides the perfect escape from routine with its sense of tranquillity, peace and elegance in a tropical setting. This ensures that guests slow down, relax and leave the world behind. The island resort is enhanced with lush vegetation of venerable coconut palms and exotic plants and flowers, and an easy-to-explore house reef nurtured by carefully managed eco-conservation. It is small enough to walk around in 10 minutes, being only 300m x 350m in size.
