TripAdvisor have just named their Travellers’ Choice Top Hotels Worldwide, honouring the world’s most luxurious properties based on the reviews of countless holidaymakers just like you.

And the good news is that two of the best and brightest of the bunch can be found right here with us! We’ve even supplied some motion pictures to get you in the mood for an exotic adventure, so turn the sound up and prepare to be wooed…

Baros, Maldives

Baros is exclusive, unspoilt, and idyllically located in the centre of a stunning Maldivian atoll, encircled by its own reef and a pristine lagoon. To ensure Baros’ sandy shores retain their untouched feel,  the Maldivian family who first leased the island from the government still operate it to this day, with the dedicated aim of conserving the island’s intrinsic beauty. Owing to this commitment, Baros’ water villas cooperate with the lush vegetation that enfolds them, providing you with luxurious accommodations that honestly harmonise with the distinctive allure of the Maldives.
