Awesome. Good call on the beach wear in my carry on. Thanks.

Yeah, they'll grab your checked bags, store them, and bring them to your room when it is ready.

Thanks.
Flight lands at 8:30, let’s say your seaplane leaves at 10 or 10:30, and and resort time is an hour ahead. You’ll be getting in around noon resort time. They won’t charge extra and room may be ready.

We did bring some Ice Tea/Cold Tea brew Bags from home. Saves you a lot off Soft Drinks We dont drink wine.

The In Room Dining was charged to the f&b bill, no problems there. The form for the F&B credit also says „all F&B outlets“

the minibar was not taken off the credit but i managed to get the 30$ open credit taken off the minibar bill.


We also arrived early at 9.30am, they had our Villa ready for Check in when we arrived.

Does the hotel provide reasonably good snorkeling equipment free of charge or should we buy/bring our own?

They do, but i had some problems with the fit. If you have your own equipment better take it with you.

Orientale and Cargo were the only Restaurants we enjoyed. For the In Room Dining we really liked the Seafood Platter, costs 480$ but we had to get rid of the F&B Credit on our last evening so i prepared our own Private Beach dinner



That looks great! Something 4 of me can possibly finish
Isn't the grilled seafood platter 375 USD or they raised the price again?

Yes you are right, 375++ so you end up with 457,5 incl Service and Tax. I requested some extra sauces and the Calamari to be replaced with something else. I think they gave me one extra Lobster. No extra charge for sauces, bread etc.

Coconut is 15++ (actually quite reasonable compared to other prices)

Able to inquire on the status of their seaplane lounge? I remember someone mentioning it was supposed to be ready in November but I haven’t seen anyone post any pictures of it yet.

Certainly, take some pics if you are going this evening I am sure many of us are interested to see.

I also heard that Elements will be opening up again soon!
