Just a 25-minute boat ride away from Malé international airport, Baros is an ideal destination for those planning a long weekend getaway from the Middle East. As part of Baros’ Endless Summer offer, guests enjoy bubbles on arrival, complimentary upgrade to half board, a candlelit dinner on the beach and a floating breakfast, valid on stays until 31st October.  

Baros has been welcoming guests to its shores since 1973 and has perfected the art of authentic Maldivian hospitality. Part of this is its exceptional culinary offerings; gastronomy at Baros is celebrated across a collection of distinctive restaurants. The legendary Lighthouse Restaurant perched above the lagoon serves sophisticated cuisine with sweeping views across the Indian Ocean; at Cayenne Grill, guests can enjoy fresh seafood and prime cuts in a relaxed, open-air setting, and Lime offers an all-day dining experience inspired by flavours of the Indian Ocean.  

For something truly memorable, destination dining can be arranged in a choice of settings, from the stunning Piano Deck to a traditional dhoni boat or luxury yacht, or a secluded stretch of beach. 

Wellness takes centre stage at Serenity Spa, where guests can embrace a slower pace with daily yoga classes, personalised treatments and restorative wellness experiences. Set amid lush tropical gardens, the spa is a peaceful sanctuary designed to reconnect body and mind. The island’s natural surroundings invite guests to swim, snorkel, walk barefoot along the beach and immerse themselves in the slower rhythm of island life. 

Family-owned to this day and only the third resort to open in the Maldives, Baros is a Maldivian icon, an intimate island with just 75 villas designed for romance and relaxation. With its timeless island charm, understated luxury and warm, highly personal service, days at Baros unfold effortlessly, surrounded by turquoise waters, coconut palms and the natural beauty of the Maldives.
