Hotelhinweis

Hotel-independent transfer information:
Speedboat: Operates for estimated arrivals/departures between 5 AM and 11 PM // Domestic flight: Operates for arrivals/departures between 9:30 AM and 4 PM // Seaplane: Operates for arrivals/departures between 9 AM and 3 PM.
Waiting times of 3 hours or more for onward transfer are possible.
Seaplane transfers may include 1-2 intermediate stops.
For arrivals/departures outside these hours, an overnight stay in Malé must be booked in advance. These costs are borne by the guest. Exceptions are changes due to flight delays, bad weather, or long waiting times for entry (in such cases, our local agent will arrange for an overnight stay).
In the Maldives, most rooms are equipped with one or two queen/king-size beds. For a occupancy of 2 adults + 1 or 2 children, there may be only 1 or 2 large beds available in total. Accordingly, it may happen that with 2 adults + 1 or 2 children in one room, a child has to sleep in the parents' bed. Seaplane flights and most boat transfers (depending on the island's location) as well as currently mostly domestic flights are only operated during the day. Therefore, an overnight stay in Male may be required.
**************************************
Baggage allowance for seaplanes is 20 kg + 3 kg hand luggage per person. Excess baggage must be paid for locally (approx. 5 USD per kg). Excess baggage is usually delivered by boat.
**************************************
In the Maldives, sinks or bathtubs/whirlpools may be integrated openly in the living area of the hotel room without spatial separation.
