*************************************
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 only be 1 or 2 large beds available in total. Consequently, it is possible that with 2 adults + 1 or 2 children in one room, a child may have to sleep in the parents' bed. Seaplane flights and most boat transfers (depending on the island's location), as well as most domestic flights currently, only operate during daylight hours. Therefore, an overnight stay in Male may be necessary.
**************************************
The baggage allowance for seaplanes is 20 kg + 5 kg of hand luggage per person. Excess baggage is to be paid for locally (approx. 5 USD per kg). Excess baggage is usually delivered by boat.
**************************************
In the Maldives, washbasins or even bathtubs/whirlpools may be integrated openly into the general living area of the hotel room without a spatial separation.
*************************************
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.
