Hotelhinweis

Hotel-independent transfer information:
Speedboat: Scheduled for arrival/departure between 5 am and 11 pm // Domestic flight: Scheduled for arrivals/departures between 9:30 am and 4 pm // Seaplane: Scheduled for arrivals/departures between 9 am and 3 pm.
Waiting times of 3 hours or more for onward transfers are possible.
Seaplane transfers may include 1–2 stopovers.
For arrivals/departures outside these times, an overnight stay in Malé must be booked in advance. Costs for this must be borne by the guest. This excludes changes due to flight delays, bad weather, or long waiting times upon entry (in such cases, our local agency will take care of a potential overnight stay).
Seaplane flights and most boat transfers (depending on the location of the island), as well as currently most domestic flights, only operate during daylight hours. Therefore, an overnight stay in Malé may be necessary.
**************************************
The baggage limit for seaplanes is 20 kg + 3 kg hand luggage per person. Excess baggage must be paid for on-site (approx. 5 USD per kg). Excess baggage is generally delivered later by boat.
**************************************
In the Maldives, sinks or bathtubs/whirlpools may be integrated into the general living area of the hotel room without spatial separation.
*************************************
Most rooms in the Maldives are equipped with one or two queen/king-size beds. For 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.
