Baros Maldives

A tiny tropical island in a blissful shallow lagoon, Baros Maldives is a scuba diver’s paradise with a reef vibrant with marine life, warm and crystal clear waters and a PADI dive school. A fantastic selection of over-water restaurants, fashionable bars, lush vegetation and a pampering spa add to the charm of this idyllic retreat. Thatched-roof villas, with spacious verandas, nestle on the sand or off jetties over the lagoon. All are extremely elegant with soaring teak pillars and billowing linen curtains. Some have inside and outside bathrooms in private gardens, while others have a sun deck over the water. Experience total relaxation with the signature spa ritual aptly called Baros Indigenous Bliss. Learn how to dive from the experts and explore the reef, just 30 metres from the beach. Take a cruise aboard ‘Nooma’, a sailing boat modelled on a Maldivian dhoni, with a private staff of four.
