Baa Atoll, Maldives
Avani+ Fares Maldives, set on a pristine island in the Baa Atoll UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, offers privacy and stunning views amid lush Maldivian vegetation and the vibrant Fares reef. Designed for young couples, honeymooners, families, small retreat groups, and ocean enthusiasts, this secluded retreat offers unparalleled privacy and uninterrupted views. Located just minutes from Hanifaru Bay and Maamunagau Point—famous for year-round snorkelling with hundreds of manta rays—the resort is a haven for marine life lovers. Its house reef features a dramatic drop-off and intriguing overhangs, while a short three-minute boat ride leads to a manta cleaning station, where divers can descend 13 to 16 meters to encounter these gentle giants up close. Throughout the week, complimentary activities and evening entertainment ensure there’s never a dull moment. Whether guests are seeking relaxation or adventure, Avani+ Fares Maldives offers an unparalleled lifestyle experience in a breathtaking island setting.
Review
What impressed me most about Avani+ Fares was the huge lagoon and the massive reef surrounding it. It's the Western edge of Baa Atoll so it offers uninterrupted views from most locations on the island. It's a 100% natural island with wide beaches and it used to be a coconut tree plantation so there's plenty of foliage. The island has such rich marine life, including a blue hole which is great for snorkelling. There are some unique concepts, such as a strong focus on Maldivian culture and the kids only restaurant, that makes it a great option for families.

Food & Beverage
Ocean Terrace
The Ocean Terrace is the place to explore, where East meets West and beach meets ocean. Breakfast is healthy, with fresh juices and smoothies, egg-white omelettes, or pancakes drizzled in syrup. For lunch and dinner, the live cooking stations sizzle with Mediterranean, Asian and speciality Maldivian flavours.
Skipjack Pool Bar and Restaurant
Snack all day on wood-fired pizzas, tapas and noodles, with smoothies and iced coffee in between. Evenings are chilled as the sun goes down and the beats come on, with the occasional movie under the stars.
Charcoal
Fresh seafood, sizzling steaks and sunsets. Dress up and head down to oceanfront Charcoal. The steak is dry aged, and the wine sommelier is on standby to recommend a glass (or bottle) to perfect the meal.
Petit Bistro
An adult-free zone. Lunch is served, young VIPs. Take a mini-seat, tuck into pizza, and enjoy making friends. Petit Bistro is part of the kids’ club for little ones aged 4 – 11. Kids learn to eat healthy and try their hand at cooking in a safe environment. Parents, meanwhile, are free to take a break and enjoy a little ‘me’ time!
Tribe Bar
Gather around the fire, feet buried in the sand. Chill to the beat of the DJ, a cocktail in hand. Tribe is the place to hit at sunset, with mellow vibes, fire dancing and shisha.
Smugglers' Shack
A beautiful sunny day, waves breaking on the shore, and a rum cocktail in hand. Drop by for the surprise menu of the day – sushi, tapas, tacos – it all depends on the chef.
Hammock
The lobby bar offers up simple, healthy options, from cold-pressed juices and kombucha to baked goods fresh from the oven. Treats include waffles, crepes, artisan coffee, bubble tea and ice-cream.
