In the "Long-haul travel" catalog 2025/26 on page 32.

Seasonal information

For stays between April and December, there may be an increased occurrence of seagrass and algae due to wind, temperature, and currents. In particular, an increased presence of brown algae in the Caribbean is often recorded. This affects both the beach and the sea. The hotel management and local authorities are, of course, striving to clean the affected beach sections in cooperation with the municipal authorities. However, this requires the use of appropriate equipment, which may cause a slight noise level.
