North Male Atoll, The Maldives (November 2017) — Recently awarded “Resort of the Year 2017” by Small Luxury Hotels, Baros Maldives continues its reputation of always staying ahead of guests’ expectations with new sophisticated upgrades to its Deluxe Villas. The interiors of the 24 Deluxe Villas feature a generous 957 square feet of living space transformed with bright décor reflecting the spirit of the destination. Polished wooden furniture is neo art-deco in style with simple, classical shapes redefining luxury accommodation, with a new, flat screen television on a contemporary easel. Silently sliding French windows open onto a white sandstone deck, widened to accommodate a large day bed and a table for two for alfresco dining or cocktails as the sun sets. The stylish villas also include king size bed, with a breath-taking view of the sea, and work and vanity tables in side alcoves.

A unique feature of these upgraded Villas is the beautiful, partly open-air bathroom with waterfall shower in a sandstone-walled flower garden and stand-alone oval bathtub. The underside of the timber roof is painted white to reflect natural light; a ceiling fan cools the air. Each Deluxe Villa, with thatched roof of palm fronds and set in its own flower garden with private access to the beach, blends seamlessly into the natural environment of the island resort.

Every Deluxe Villa at Baros Maldives is self-contained and replete with superior quality extras; guests are attended by a Villa Host on call 24 hours a day.

Baros villa rates start at $675 per night. For reservations or more information, visit www.baros.com.
