Gili Lankanfushi

Gili Lankanfushi Maldives is a short 20 minute boat ride from Male, the capital of the Maldives. It is a tiny coral island in a sparkling lagoon, with jetties threading across the water out to spacious villas. The forty four stilted villas plus the vast Private Reserve are crafted in a traditional style from natural materials and offer rooftop and over-water sundecks, featuring open air bathrooms, sumptuous daybeds and a personal entertainment center. For ultimate privacy, we have seven Crusoe Residences that are only accessible by personal boat. Come ashore for some great dining and equally great wines or perhaps a romantic moonlit dinner delivered right to the villa. The possibilities are endless. The interior decoration has been devised to recreate a natural habitat, using sustainable woods, natural materials and traditional fabrics, whilst still offering all the modern day amenities and creature comforts of true luxury. At Gili Lankanfushi, Maldives we are very sensitive to the environment. The utmost care has been taken in developing the island with respect to its ecological balance. The Maldives is a paradise for snorkeling and diving and the resort has its own fully equipped PADI diving school plus a variety of water sports. This place tops the list of must-do destinations for those seeking the aquatic paradise.

Special thanks to @ Mahesh from the catering team, he took very special care of us our food and the drinks. He didn’t leave any chance of any complains and was the best host during all our meals. Very friendly and a nice humble champ. Thanks to @Suraj too for taking care of the drinks at our table and making sure nothing is incomplete . Young kiddo so humble.

Paradise Island Resort & Spa

Imagine an island right in the middle of the Indian Ocean, with bright white beaches, a lagoon with multiple hues of blue and aquamarine and tall coconut palms swaying to the breeze. Who wouldn't want to be marooned on one? All the more, when all modern comforts and formal professional services that one would expect on a five star hotel come together with it.

Baros Maldives

A lush, tropical island set in the shimmering waters of a shallow lagoon, ringed by a reef vibrant with marine life. Stay in elegance in Villas created from timber and sandstone, poised and peaceful over a translucent lagoon, or nestled discreetly among exotic blooms by the beach. Revel in romantic privacy on the perfect vacation. The essence of the Maldives, defined at Baros.

Baros - feels like our home - thank you for the wonderful experience once more!

Reviewed By mrpriestley

Another superb visit to this phenomenal island. We last visited Baros in 2019 and this is our first return since the end of the pandemic. As soon as we arrived it felt like home - familiar, friendly and just a luxurious experience. The island experience is made by the incredible staff. We would particularly like to thank the restaurant staff who looked after us throughout including Afa who is the funniest and loveliest lady, Idya and Ahmed. The food was of a very high standard but it is the service that makes it so great - their precision and anticipation of our needs is what makes this such a luxury experience. The same can be said of the lighthouse bar and the Sails bar where Madhu exceeds in everything he does. Greeting you with a friendly face and welcome and ably helped by Kopila and Gustia, it’s such a pleasurable experience. The house reef is the star of the island - guided by the brilliant Manan who took us on some brilliant tours of the reef and other nearby reefs. We saw, turtles, and sharks and sting rays - all incredibly photographed by us and by manan who sends you a link to download all the pictures. Our villa host Vishan couldn’t be more helpful and was a credit to the island as was the inimitable Hardy. To the island General Manager, ibrahim Shijah, you have done a brilliant job in building this culture amongst your staff and making the island a wonderful experience every time we come. We are already looking forward to next year!

Fantastic!

Reviewed By andybZ8886GS

Fantastic and friendly service from the time you arrive at the airport until they drop you off for your departure. Easy boat transfer. The location was exceptional. The house reef as some of the best snorkeling we have done anywhere in the world. Food was great with a lot of variety. Definitely try all the Indian dishes. Just Grill the specialty restaurant was very nice. Unfortunately they no longer have the vegetarian restaurant and the menu at Just Wok the other specialty restaurant was uninspired and not much different from the buffet restaurant. Can’t emphasize enough how friendly the staff was and the exceptional level of their service. It was a very long trip from the US but this place made it worth the trip.

Greatest escape ever

Reviewed By alexanderkH8694AV

We stayed at the Adaaran Prestige Vadoo for 5 nights on the all inclusive package in an over water villa. Every single aspect of the island and the service vastly exceeded our expectations. As picturesque as a post card, but it was the service offered here was what really blew us away. Michelin level food and service at the restaurant for every meal, staff members always at the ready to help you with any possible need, room service with surprise bottles of champagne, and the loveliest servers I’ve ever dealt with. I don’t have the words to praise them highly enough. Deepu, our butler, deserves a particular mention for his amazingness the whole time. Wow.
