What to know · 01

The room is only one part of the cost

Island pricing is shaped by the room category, meal plan, airport transfer and domestic flight connection. A villa with breakfast has a very different total from a full-board or all-inclusive beach stay, even before experiences are added.

What to know · 02

Plan around the coast and the season

Tide, sea conditions and school-holiday demand affect both the experience and availability. If diving, snorkelling or a private dhow trip is important, make it a considered choice in the itinerary rather than an assumed inclusion.

What to know · 03

Keep optional experiences optional

Spa treatments, premium drinks, sailing and marine excursions are best separated from the core trip total unless they are confirmed in writing. That gives you an honest base cost and freedom to add what matters most.
