WHY WE LOVE THIS HOTEL

Location: The hotel is just a 25-minute boat ride from the airport, but once you arrive, you will feel as if you’re hundreds of miles away from the rest of the world.

History: When the first Baros Maldives was built in 1973, it was one of only three resorts on the islands. Baros created a luxurious atmosphere in the natural setting the islands are now known for.

Activities: A wide range of activities are available including watersports, yoga and beach or sandbank dining.

DETAILED DECRIPTION

Treat yourself to one of the many spa treatments or unwind in the steambath. The resort offers yoga classes, diving classes and diving excursions as well as an on-site marine center with a resident expert marine biologist. See the incredible beauty of the Maldives without even having to leave your resort. Choose from three different exquisite restaurants with delicious food, and relax at either of the two bars. The resort is world-renowned for their restaurants. The Baros Maldives Resort and Spa is only a 25-minute boat ride from the North Male Atoll Airport.
