Hotelhinweis

Hotel-independent transfer information:
Speedboat: Operation for estimated arrival/departure between 5 am and 11 pm. // Domestic flight: Operation for arrivals/departures between 9:30 am and 4 pm. // Seaplane: Operation for arrivals/departures between 9 am and 3 pm.
Waiting times of 3 hours or more for onward transfer are possible.
Seaplane transfers may involve 1-2 stopovers.
For arrivals/departures outside these times, an overnight stay in Malé 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 extended immigration waiting times (in these cases, our local agency will arrange for an overnight stay).
Seaplane flights and most boat transfers (depending on the island's location), and currently most domestic flights, only operate during daylight hours. Therefore, an overnight stay in Malé may be necessary.
**************************************
The baggage allowance for seaplanes is 20 kg + 3 kg hand luggage per person. Excess baggage must be paid for locally (approx. $5 per kg). Excess baggage is usually delivered by boat.
**************************************
In the Maldives, sinks or bathtubs/whirlpools may be integrated openly in 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. For a double occupancy with 1 or 2 children, there may only be one or two 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.
*************************************
Please note that rooms with direct pool/sea access can only be booked for travelers with children aged 7 and above due to safety reasons.
