Try this address. [email protected]

I get responses within a day or two.

We were invited a second time during our last stay in October, but not for a third time.

MF- you’ll know the answer to this one

Super excited to return after only 8 months away. I won’t have to ask many questions this time since I still have the entire dining itinerary you gave us last time. Given we are taking both kids this time and will need two WVs, not sure we want to pay to UG. My wife loved the jacuzzi in our RWV last time and would definitely want to jacuzzi again. Do you happen to recall if the main pool has a jacuzzi? I don’t recall seeing any public jacuzzis on property.

Thanks as always!

No, it does not.

I am around a month away now from my 5 night stay. Anything I should be doing to get ready? I'm assuming they will contact me soon to get my flight details to arrange for the sea plane, etc. When can/should I start making reservations for the different activities, meals?

crap - I somehow missed MFs original response. Apologies to MF and thanks Goliath I am doing everything on my phone this weekend and sometimes the Forum acts a bit goofy with IOS. Keeps resetting and makes stuff harder to find....nothing worse than multiple questions with the same answer easily found. Apologies again.

Buy sunscreen. Neutrogena makes a non-comedogenic SPF50 that's nice. And make sure you have appropriate clothing.

You should be able to make an Ithaa reservation now, if you want to. The other restaurants can be booked on arrival.

Ovo-lacto or strict vegan?

Any idea what the least expensive Ithaa option is? We want to go just for the experience, don't really care to do the dinner or any of the more expensive options.

What would you say is appropriate clothing?

There's a cocktail hour. One glass of champagne and canapes. Details are in the wiki.

It's hot there, especially if you're not in the shade. If you're lying on the beach, you should be comfortable in swimwear. If you go out to a restaurant, you'll just want to make sure that your dress clothing is light and airy.

Cocktail Hour. They have decent (for the Maldives) prices at breakfast as I recall too, but if you are Diamond or Gold, you would have to forgo the free breakfast, which doesn’t make much sense in my book.

Yes peeved if it happened BUT I think I have a better chance of winning the lotto than ever being filmed in such circumstance.
