What to ask before you book
Airport transfer
Ask whether the guesthouse arranges it and what it costs. Arriving without one, at an hour no public ferry runs, is the expensive way to find out.
Distance to the beach
On a local island the bikini beach is a fixed spot, not outside every door. Five minutes and twenty minutes are a different holiday.
Meals and Ramadan
Whether breakfast is included, and — if you travel during Ramadan — whether the kitchen serves guests during the day.
