Living the Maldives Dream

9 August 2023 | All Blogs, Destination, Dining, Events, Experience, Villas

Your dream holiday in paradise involves doing as little as possible. Lying supine under the shade of a palm with the warmth of the sun caressing you and a cool drink at hand. Your partner, however, dreams of a holiday with adventure and new experiences. Baros Maldives is the dream escape for you both. 

The Maldives destination with it all  

Baros has spent 50 years cultivating and curating the most luxurious and authentic Maldives experience for our guests. Our team is known for the distinguished Maldivian hospitality and individualised service we provide, and every villa is a dream of luxurious private island living, with warm wood tones, open-air bathrooms and views of island paradise, whether that is the never-ending blue of the overwater villas or the cool green jungle beauty of our beach villas. 

We have many indulgent options available for guests to be restored and reinvigorated, whether that is treatments at Serenity Spa, languid and delicious meals at one of our three gourmet-class restaurants or just reclining on your deck beside your private pool. 

Relax  

The Serenity Spa is a sanctuary of relaxation and rejuvenation. Our therapists are trained in the latest techniques and are experts at soothing tired bodies, minds and souls. Enjoy our Lavender and Lime Ceremony by TheraNaka or the East African Wood Massage, inspired by the rhythms of Africa – with light stretching techniques and acupressure, using wooden instruments to soothe and restore. Or create your own bespoke moment of Baros bliss, selecting treatments perfect for you. 

Your spa journey at Baros will be in a beautiful private suite with your own private relaxation area outside, including a rainfall shower and bathtub set in a tropical garden. 

Explore  

While Baros has perfected relaxation and restful island living, we have also created many wonderfully exhilarating ways for you to enjoy the natural beauty of our island. Add an edge of adventure to your holiday with traditional hand-line fishing excursions, sailing the seas onboard our traditional Maldivian dhoni, Nooma or exploring the lagoon in our glass-bottomed kayak.  

Snorkelling and diving, remains our guests’ favourite ways to explore our underwater wonderland. 

Baros started as a dive resort in the 1970s and our dive centre is one of the first PADI five-star Gold Palm certification resort dive centres in the Maldives. Immerse yourself in unparalleled diving or snorkelling experiences. Our resident marine biologist and dive masters will ensure that you learn fascinating details about the rich biodiversity that you will encounter in our world-class house reef and lagoon.  

 Small groups and individual attention ensure that you are in good hands. Dive or snorkel with turtles, rays and harmless reef sharks, as well as a kaleidoscope of colourful fish and make memories that will last a lifetime.  

Be delighted 

After an afternoon of indulging in a tailored wellness journey at Serenity Spa, or exploring underwater, meet to meander hand in hand to one of our highly rated restaurants.  

Enjoy fine dining at our signature restaurant The Lighthouse, the perfect fusion of exceptional standards and bold, fresh ideas. Classic dishes perfected over the years but updated with new techniques and ingredients from around the world. If you are looking for a relaxed atmosphere, nothing beats fresh lobster or Japanese Wagyu tenderloin cooked over the open flame at Cayenne.  

Baros is bliss, for you both 

Join us at Baros and dive into a dream of private island paradise that will be the perfect escape for you both. Build lifelong memories as you rest, relax and explore together.
