"We spent eight days at Banyan Tree Vabbinfaru and it truly felt like the tiniest slice of paradise. The island is intimate, peaceful and beautifully kept, with the kind of turquoise water that makes it very easy to switch off completely. We upgraded to all inclusive on arrival and, for the price, were initially surprised by a few exclusions. After feeding this back, Aden and, from a distance, Elias, helped us make the very best of our stay, supported throughout by our wonderful concierge Allath. We felt listened to, which made a real difference. The catamaran experience was a huge highlight. The crew were exceptional, the marine life was out of this world, and the lunch prepared in advance by Chef David was outstanding. We also booked a Balinese full body massage with Lin and Katrin, who were so skilled and sweet that we immediately booked another. Food was consistently great across all three outlets, with Madi Hiyaa, the award winning Japanese restaurant, my personal favourite. The sashimi was incredibly fresh and the team, especially Uma, were so warm and attentive. At Saffron, Fipit and Nafiz greeted us daily with the biggest smiles, and Chef Pro Santa made our mornings with his delicious farm fresh eggs and sense of humour. Not without small teething issues, but overall an incredibly beautiful and relaxing stay."

"Outstanding hospitality paired with delicious food — there’s something for everyone. The entire resort is stunning, and the staff is extremely courteous and respectful."

"Amazing place. Staff were very nice, helpful and friendly (except at the Stars restaurant). The island is small but its very well maintained and everything smells like tropical flowers. Everything very clean and five stars room service. Food was good but could be a little bit better and had more variety. We will be back! "

"An incredible resort. The cocktails and food are excellent, with the Lighthouse restaurant bordering on Michelin star quality. The variation of food and drink options across the 3 restaurants and 2 bars is vast. A special mention is required on the service, which is second to none. From our private butler Saeed to the numerous staff across housekeeping, the restaurants and bars, the quality and attention to detail is unlike anything I have experienced before. Throughout our 7 nights at Baros there were no flaws - I cannot recommend this resort enough. We have been fortunate to stay in many high-end hotels before and Baros tops them all."

" Great island, water villa spot on. Foo outstanding and cleaners and waiters/chefs and bar staff amazing. Reception staff need more training to ensure the same consistent friendly experience as they did not look comfortable dealing with guests and slow support. Would revisit however resort management need to urgently change health and safety warrior their maintenance staff. Such low standards exhibited working with electric equipment in water under the spa, no risk mitigation which is not acceptable. No personal protective equipment and high risk to loss of life in addition to impact on guests. "

"Everything is superb from the speedboat at the airport, the hotel, the service and even the checkout. "

"Great value property. 15 minute boat transfer. Half board was good. Pastry chef was amazing and Shameen, our waiter, was excellent."
