Good to know

Breakfast and Dinner are not included in the price, given the early departures, it is sensible to have breakfast on the way.

Dinner can be ordered from the clubhouse, the cost is reasonable and the chef can prepare anything from western to local dishes, there is a menu that can be sent prior to your arrival.
