Kuoni Insider

A restaurant with a serious ‘wow’ factor, The Lighthouse is Baros’ crowning glory. A rarity in the Maldives for its elevation and panoramic views, it is architecturally spectacular; its tented white roof sail-like over the turquoise lagoon. For gourmet cuisine – including divine fresh seafood – and fine wine in the midst of an elegant and stylish ocean icon, it is difficult to parallel.
