How the desk works

Four steps from your brief to a confirmed transfer plan

Every request runs through the same sequence: written brief, resort selection, accommodation comparison, then coordinated transfers. No price band is quoted until the transfer leg is confirmed as workable for your arrival time.

  1. 01

    Send the brief

    Dates, nights, nightly budget band, board basis you prefer and who is travelling. A few lines is enough to begin.

  2. 02

    Shortlist two to four resorts

    We narrow by atoll or emirate, reef access, room type and the transfer pattern that fits your landing slot.

  3. 03

    Compare side by side

    Transfer minutes, board basis and an illustrative nightly band in USD sit in one row, with a planner note on who each option suits.

  4. 04

    Lock the transfer plan

    Seaplane or speedboat timing is mapped to your arrival, with the check-in window written down before anything is held.

Steps two and three usually run together. Read the brief inputs we ask for or open the comparison matrix to see the columns first.

Scope of the brief

What is not included

We handle resort selection, accommodation comparison and transfer coordination. The five items below stay outside the desk and remain yours to confirm before any reservation.
