Start with your total INR budget
Before choosing islands or resorts, define your all-in budget. This helps avoid hidden transfer and meal surprises.
Understand the four big cost buckets
- International flights
- Resort or hotel nights
- Speedboat or seaplane transfer
- Meals and activities
Meal plans can change everything
A lower nightly room rate may become expensive once meals are added. Always compare full package value.
Stay length strategy
For first-time travellers, 4 nights often gives a balanced mix of relaxation and activities without unnecessary overspend.
Best way to compare options
- Ask for total payable INR breakdown.
- Confirm taxes and service charges.
- Verify transfer timing with flight schedules.
- Check inclusions for excursions and water activities.
