The Maldives, a tropical paradise nestled in the heart of the Indian Ocean, is home to some of the most luxurious and idyllic resorts in the world. Among them, two hotels stand out for their unique offerings and unparalleled hospitality: The Serene Baros Resort and The Milaidhoo Retreat.
Baros
Nestled within the pristine waters of the Maldives lies Baros, a haven of unparalleled luxury and natural beauty. A short 25-minute speedboat ride from Maldives International Airport, this tropical resort is home to 75 sophisticated villas framed by a seemingly endless powder-soft white beach and a glittering lagoon surrounded by a world-class house reef. As one of the first hotels in the Maldives, Baros has welcomed guests since 1973 and has spent decades honing its services and cultivating its environment, making it a Maldivian Icon.
An award-winning resort, and a member of Small Luxury Hotels of The World, Baros is celebrated for its authentic spirit, legendary service, outstanding comfort and understated elegance. This exclusive island retreat captivates visitors with its breathtaking white sandy beaches, crystal-clear turquoise lagoons, and lush tropical greenery.
Baros offers discerning travellers an escape from the ordinary and a chance to indulge in pure relaxation and serenity. From overwater villas with private infinity pools to world-class dining experiences featuring fresh, locally sourced ingredients, every aspect of a stay at Baros is meticulously curated to exceed expectations. Whether snorkelling amidst vibrant coral reefs teeming with marine life, unwinding with a rejuvenating spa treatment, or simply basking in the warmth of the Maldivian sun, Baros promises an unforgettable Maldives retreat.

Milaidhoo
Experience paradise redefined at Milaidhoo in the Maldives, where luxury meets authenticity in the heart of the Indian Ocean.

Milaidhoo epitomises barefoot luxury and features 50 contemporary Maldivian-style pool villas, custom-made and made for comfort designed by a renowned Maldivian architect with contemporary design, featuring private pools and breathtaking ocean views.

Dining is a highlight, with Milaidhoo being home to three world-class restaurants, including Ba’theli. This unique Maldivian restaurant reflects the islands’ heritage and is built in the shape of three traditional boats on pillars over a lagoon. The restaurant’s innovative and delicious meals are steeped in Maldivian tradition, with each dish inspired by favourites of the ancient maritime Spice Route. Serving locally sourced ingredients and innovative dishes inspired by global flavours. Whether seeking relaxation on the beach, thrilling water adventures, or cultural immersion through authentic Maldivian experiences, Milaidhoo promises an unparalleled escape where every moment is crafted to perfection.
