Excelent stay!
Posted Jan 16, 2013
Pros: Everything, the food, the gym, the corals
So I believe Baros is one of all the many resorts that are available on the Maldives. Haven't yet been to others, but still was able to talk to a friend that was in another resort, I can say this place is really amazing. First of all, the staff will do as much as they can to make your stay perfect, yet they will not present when you dont need them, giving what other places that i've stayed lacks the most: privacy. You can be at your villa, and you will feel alone, yet if you want something they will rush and appear to do what you need. The island itself is really well preserved, and they do take a lot of care of it, perfectly clean. We stayed for 8 days, which could seem like a lot, but the timing was perfect. snorkeled everyday, with the snorkeling kit that was provided complimentary, there was not a single day that we didn't see mantas, or sharks (reef sharks, so no problem). The breakfast is really good, of course buffet style and there where so many options, healthy or unhealthy, so it was impossible to complain about. We had several times in-dining lunch and dinner, and it was nice that they didnt add up an extra cost for that (still, it was not cheap of course, but if you want cheap stay at a hostel!). The food was in all 3 restaurants really, really good! The gym was very handy, some free weight, lots of cardio, a smith machine and a cable machine, so you can keep up with your workout if needed. Internet was really fast and complimentary!

Paradise
Posted Jan 18, 2013
Pros: Access to the beautiful beach from our room.
Cons: Small criticism relating to service from a few staff in all day outdoor restaurant.
Location: Excellent location. Easily reached by speedboat from Male.
Overall our experience at Baros was superb. Our only criticism was that some of the male staff in the all day outdoor restaurant could improve their attitude and attentiveness to guests and the fins in the dive centre were uncomfortable resulting in blisters.

Great option to spend vacations!
Posted Jan 7, 2012
Pros: Privacy, comfort, untouchable sea and Underwater World experience.
Very nice accommodation. Brilliant lagoon and riff experience. Good meals. Gourmet restaurant Light House - really best choice for dinner. Same time - very small island - just 300 x 350 meters but intelligent planned. You will forget it in a couple days! The best option for snokering in compare with Seychelles, Mauritius or Bali! You can see full Underwater World under you! No matter 1 or 4 meters deep water - there is fantastic aquarium. You can meet some sharks in a few meters but not so big and dangerous as well.

Great place for a honeymoon

We had an amazing time in Baros and cant recommend it highly enough. We were happy with our villa which was on the beach with direct access to the best snorkeling spot. We looked at the over the water bungalows but preferred the earthy surroundings of our villa better. I may have just overcome my fear of snorkeling with sharks just a little! It is quite daunting at first as in Australia the sharks are not quite so friendly. We look forward to visiting the Maldives again hopefully in the not too distant future.

A little peace of heaven
Posted Jan 19, 2012
Pros: Snorkeling and reef were just beautiful, lots of fish and interesting things to see.
The hotel was amazing! The staff were wonderful. We spent most of the time in our premier pool villa. It had a huge deck that was right on the water and it's own pool. The sunsets at the bar were wonderful and the food excellant.
