*****************
In the Maldives, most rooms are equipped with one or two queen/king-size beds. For an occupancy of 2 adults + 1 or 2 children, it may be the case that a total of only 1 or 2 large beds are available. Consequently, it may occur that with 2 adults + 1 or 2 children in a room, one child must sleep in the parents' bed.
*************************************

Zusatzhinweis

**************************************
All flight transfers as well as most boat transfers (depending on the location of the island) are carried out only during daylight hours. Therefore, an overnight stay in Male (near the airport) may be necessary.
**************************************
The baggage allowance for seaplanes is 20 kg + 3 kg of 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 even bathtubs/Jacuzzis can be integrated openly into the general living area of the hotel room without spatial separation.
