"If I could give Baglioni Maldives 11 stars out of 10, I absolutely would! Everything about our stay was perfect. The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help with a genuine smile. The four restaurants were outstanding. Every meal was delicious, beautifully presented, and offered plenty of variety. The resort was exceptionally clean. Our water villa was serviced twice a day, with fresh towels replaced every time. The attention to detail was remarkable. We loved every excursion, especially snorkeling, scuba diving, dolphin watching, and the "Discover Maldives" tour, where we had the chance to experience the local culture. We were also lucky with amazing weather throughout our stay. One of the best parts was the incredible marine life right next to our villa. We spent hours snorkeling and saw colorful tropical fish, graceful eagle rays, and small reef sharks just a short swim away. This has been one of the best vacations of our lives. Thank you to the entire Baglioni team for creating unforgettable memories. We can't wait to come back!"

"We stayed in an over the water sunset villa, which was very comfortable, clean and had great facilities with fridge, wifi, coffee machine and a large bathroom with both shower and bath. It was kept spotless by Suranga who could not have been more helpful and who kept us entertained when we returned to the villa with his brilliant chalk drawings of all the different types of sea life in the Maldives.."

"Nous avons demandé à changer de chambre , villa plage , car la n153 n’avait pas de plage à marée haute . Il n’y a pas eu de problème. Ça a été fait assez rapidement . Chambre propre , mais pas digne d’un 5 étoiles car en profondeur il y a des choses pas nettes . Une petite rénovation serait envisageable . Néanmoins les villas plage sont bien entretenue, les toitures refaites. Beau lagon . Mais pas d’accès au tombant . Une sortie est organisée par jour , c’est peu ! Et elle dure que 35 mn… avec le trajet ils comptent 1 h. Restauration bonne . Laila a été parfaite , très souriante . Nous espérons revenir . "
