Tips for Booking Accommodation
- Book early during holidays, festivals, and summer months (March–May)
- If you prefer fewer crowds, November to February offers cooler weather and lower rates.
- Peak season is March to May when the sun’s out and the island is buzzing with local festivals and events.
- Check ferry schedules if you’re staying near Talikud or other remote spots
- Look for places that offer airport/ferry transfers
- Ask about generator access during power outages (common in some areas)
