A dream. We were there for a week and had a deluxe villa with a super outside bathroom. Everything was very clean and you have special requests, such as more towels or so, very gladly and immediately fulfilled. A dolphin tour with the speedboat we can absolutely recommend. It takes 1,5 hours and we have a many dolphins seen. All 3 restaurants are excellent, but expensive. There are 3 times per week theme buffets and every 2. day live music, the could not be better. Many sharks, the one however in peace leave. Crystal clear water, no jellyfish. Snorkeling ... and diving At a great beach. read more

    Our villa was wonderful. Although the deluxe villas the smallest are, they are great. From the bed by palm trees on the sea look, what is it better? There are 2 waschplätze, shampoo, shower gel and conditioner you can at home. Everything was in top-quality and abundant. Great king size bed. The air conditioning we after 1 day only in the evening and on 28 °c! Set. At the heat, the a at the start almost smothering left, one really quick used to. Ironing board and iron are also available. Flat screen tv and dvd player, and. Everything perfect and clean.

    What we had considered. Half board or not, and we are glad, that we only booked breakfast had. Therefore we could after desire and appetite spontaneously decide, in which the 3 restaurants we eat. Half board is only in the lime and with reduced card possible. If you are outside this card or in one of the 2 other restaurants to eat, you pay extra. The cuisine is excellent. We only from fish and sea fruits with great angemachtem vegetables fed. The cheapest bottle of wine cost $40, -. We tipped always given. We always sat directly at the water edge and had a view of sharks, rays and other fish. Great.

    Incredibly, as friendly all of the staff on the island are. It is predominantly english spoken, but also german. One comes in any case enough. The villas are 2 times cleaned daily. The beds at night turned down. By the way the beds very good. We in the afternoon food into the villa ordered and the was also great. Really great presented and delicious. From the hotel there was a birthday surprise a breakfast at the villa under palm trees. Not to exceed. You will initially to allergies and special requests to eat asked. In passing, i have times during a conversation with a waiter mentioned, that i had forgotten, mouthwash with you. At night in the bathroom. Everything was as in the fairy tale: snap with the fingers-desire fulfilled.

    There is even a gym, the really great equipped. However, we were the air conditioning too cold. But many Guests is' worried '. Each villa has its own beach area with two sun loungers and a fixed umbrella. Every morning the beach raked. There is entertainment thank god not. In the evening, you at the sailsbar under palm trees or in the lighthouse bar on the 1. floor over the restaurant on. Great view of the illuminated times in the distance. By the way we hear are very rarely times a plane or boat.

    We are with the speedboat 20 minutes from the airport have been traveling. A wonderful experience. On the island there are 1 boutique, where you beachwear, postcards, cigarettes etc. Buy can. There were daily different excursions were offered. Snorkel equipment one receives free of charge. The diving school is very recommendable.

In a nutshell: fantastic! We were thrilled by the beginning of the resort. Really an incredible beach, amazing sea and great bungalows. One can really claim: it is the paradise. The only point of criticism (if one is): no pool, but who needs in the Maldives a pool already?! Really great restaurants and delicious food. Definitely recommendable and worth a trip! read more

We are already very much traveling, but something like baros we have never seen anything like it. We had a pool villa, the a dream was. Very elegant and comfortable. The pool alone is so great, as you evenings, with small lighting still swim. The food was in all restaurant outstanding, but very expensive, that we knew however. In the bar several times a very good life music and good drinks. The sea great for swimming, unfortunately but no fish to see. Only young guests to see, especially Asians. We are a older couple, but nevertheless we have felt really ... good, there the staff very friendly was. In all very quiet, few guests evenings in the restaurant, we have observed, that many in their villas food. The weather was for sun-hungry not so great. Often cloudy and a few Times heavy rain. It didn't bother us, we have our 10 days fully enjoyed. read more

Wonderful vacation on our island

We were this year the second time on the island Baros, the for us nearly everything offers, what we from a Maldives Islands could hope for. (we were already 15 times to guest on the Maldives) the friendliness, cleanliness and the food is simply unbeatable. Only point of criticism for us, that the villas was very close together is possible, from the beach partly understandable are, so that the desired privacy not quite want to enter. For a hotel this category rather unusual in the Maldives! There are three restaurants on the island, the Limehouse, the lighthouse and the Cayenne-restaurant. ... We have booked only night and breakfast booked, so that we were dependant in Limehouse dinner, but had the free choice, which restaurant we can. The lighthouse was just wonderful, on stilts in the water built with a gigantic view, however extremely expensive and in our opinion, is here the value for money in no relation! A absolute 'must' is the cocktail bar on the lighthouse, where day beds the sunset can enjoy, it was just wonderful. Also the nearby riff is intact, many sharks (which is not small are) drag their rounds. Turtles, eagle rays, Mantas, Fledermausfische and many other Species romp around at the reef edge. The SPA I can only say, that I thoroughly on the Maldives better massaged am. It was a dreamlike and unforgettable vacation and the island is our opinion to 100% recommendable. read more

The flight with Air Berlin was OK. We had already reserved seating and so we had a 2er seat and a window seat. The food was in order, we expect no 5 star kitchen in this level; the non-stop flight important. There were enough drinks, blankets, pillows, reading material, movies. Ended up on male we were greeted by friendly staff of baros. On the speedboat we were immediately given cool towels and after about 25 minutes we arrived already at baros. At the jetty (jetty) we were greeted warmly by one of them. Then there were cool towels, as well ... as alternatively a champagne or a refreshing mango-cocktail! The check-in was quick, our passports, and the credit card were short and authorized. Then we got both back. As our villa wasn't ready yet, we were in a 1 h for the days villas quartered, there could we freshly made. Then take a dip in our Deluxe villa, where we were given a short briefing from our housekeeper. We got one of our desire-villas number 115 on the east side of the island. The villa is set back a bit but still with sea view, so that not everyone can see into the bed. The decor of the villas is truly great and left nothing to be desired. Above all, the open bathroom is a treat. Every day we got the 1 L water/person, there was free WiFi, a Lavazza coffee machine with free capsules, which especially from my husband was efficient use. Furthermore, there was a terminal for the iPod or iPhone. The villa is cleaned twice a day. In the evening, the bed turned down and the latest information for the next day lovingly notified. We had booked bed and breakfast. There are three restaurants on the island. " " The lime, which was the main restaurant is and where we ate most of them. There there is also the breakfast, which tasted very good and there was next to fresh fruit, waffles, fresh juices, champagne very good grain bread for breakfast!! Another is the " Cayenne grill " with BBQ., as well as the exclusive " Lighthouse ". There we in a spectacular 8-full moon-indeed rat, menu part. The prices are rather high, but the food and the wines were very good and who should also baros holiday treat! The food was in all three restaurants was great. As we have spent our honeymoon in baros, we had also the dinner on the beach including, which was also very harmonious and romantic. In the " sails bar " Are we in the evening often stuck in it and have a drink approved. Wide could also shisha (water pipe) there smoking. This is especially the mint-tobacco to be recommended. We were at least twice a day snorkelling, the water is just a dream and the reef in the vicinity we enjoyed it very much. We could see the full programme of water. Sharks, turtles, rays, and many colorful fish surpassed us. It was really wonderful, especially since I for the first time ever. snorkelling:)we felt just like in an aquarium. The equipment that you can use free of charge the diving school. These & the: We stayed for ten days and had always nice baros weather. Once it was a bit more cloudy and it has rained for 1 h about, what we didn't bother. We were snorkeling and there is anyway you wet!) The staff was always friendly and helpful, we had the whole time always feel welcomed. With us there were mainly (very pleasant) Englishmen and Russians on the island, followed by Asians and a handful of German, Swiss and Austrians (I). On the island every day was a constant coming and going. We had the feeling, that we with ten days in a row, almost the longest on the island there were. Asian guests are especially with photographs and films employed. We also made unsereres during your stay will be two weddings or high time Photo shootings see, which was very enjoyable. On the island are also, of course, etc. offered daily excursions. We only have one dolphin tour part in, since a large dolphin enthusiast and a true highlight for me was. The tour cost per person $80 and still contains 1 glass of champagne and appetizers. The tour lasts about two hours. The boat trip takes about 45 minutes-then the fun looking for the dolphins. During our trip were many dolphins and I was really in the seventh heaven dolphin! A photo flight with the water airplane we wanted to make also still, the time was too short. The SPA we didn't use it, however this looked very nice from the outside. The bite from pests is concerned, we had the whole stay no trick or the like. On the island is also something against insects, etc. however, sprayed. To sum up, we can really recommend 1000% baros. We had a relaxing, wonderful honeymoon as we had imagined it. The island is exactly the same as shown in the Internet or catalog. We would definitely go back. read more

Our expectations were exceeded in any case. We were pampered and well taken care of. The staff is super friendly and professional. All staff members spoke good English. The leisure facilities are large and would definitely recommend the diving school. If you want to relax without problems, I would definitely put baros. A quiet island with beautiful, spacious bungalows (the cheapest category has a beautiful outdoor bath room) and very clean kitchen. A great holiday. read more
