Hotelhinweis

Hotel-independent transfer information:
Speedboat: Operation for expected arrival/departure from 5 am to 11 pm // Domestic (domestic flight): Operation expected for arrivals/departures from 9:30 am to 4 pm // Seaplane: Operation expected for arrivals/departures from 9 am to 3 pm.
Waiting times of 3 hours or more for onward transfer are possible.
There may be 1–2 stopovers for seaplane transfers.
For arrivals/departures outside these times, an overnight stay in Male must be booked in advance. The costs for this are to be borne by the guest. Exceptions are changes due to flight delays, bad weather, or longer waiting times at immigration (in these cases, our local agency will take care of a potential overnight stay).
Partially, the sand on the north side is interspersed with coral; bathing shoes are recommended.
*************************************
Seaplane flights and most boat transfers (depending on the location of the island) as well as currently mostly domestic flights are only carried out during the day. Therefore, an overnight stay in Male may be necessary.
**************************************
The baggage allowance for seaplanes is 20 kg + 5 kg hand luggage per person. Excess baggage must be paid for on-site (approx. 5 USD per kg). Excess baggage is usually delivered by boat later.
**************************************
In the Maldives, sinks or even bathtubs/whirlpools can be integrated openly into the general living area of the hotel room without spatial separation.
*************************************
In the Maldives, most rooms are equipped with one or two queen/king-size beds. With an occupancy of 2 adults + 1 or 2 children, there may only be a total of 1 or 2 large beds available. Accordingly, it may happen that with 2 adults + 1 or 2 children in one room, a child must sleep in the parents' bed.
*************************************
Please note that rooms with direct pool/sea access can only be booked for travelers with children aged 7 years and older for safety reasons.
