Booking, additional Costs, Transaction and Payment
Booking and payment
After I told you the total price, we need a deposit of 25% of the total sum. You can transfer the money to our German or Austrian bank account. The remaining amount needs to be paid before you arrive in Seychelles. Sometimes we also make exceptions and the rest can be paid on the island directly to me or to Christine from the Dive Center. Please give the money only to Christine, because she is the only one with authorization. Christine can also visit you at your apartment to collect the money. In case you we book the flights of ferry for you, the price needs to be paid instantly and directly with the deposit. Don't worry, I will send you email with some more information.

Internet , Klimaanlage und Reinigung
The prices for Internet and electricity are very high on the island. Therefor we need to charge you some extra money for the usage of air-con and W-LAN. We do make individual final payments for all our guests because not all guests consume the same amount.
Internet/WLAN costs 3 Euro per day
Air-condition:
1 Air-con costs 3 Euro per day
2 Air-cons cost (for apartments with two air-cons and usage) 5 Euro per day
House Megan and Rock Heaven (for house and usage) 7,50 Euro per day
For apartments on the other islands (Praslin and La Digue) the air-condition is already included in the price.
Internet is very expensive. Please don't do any uploads or downloads of pictures with high resolution etc. and don't send those pictures as well. We also recommend you not to use the Skype video function. Also don't download the latest movies or programs - it will take you ages anyways, because the internet can be quite slow sometimes. When you don't use it, please disconnect from the Internet and deactivate updates. The bandwidth is limited. But the Internet is good enough for checking your E-Mails and staying in touch per Whatsapp.
The air-con needs to be turned off when you leave the apartment. You can cool down the room before you go to sleep but please don't turn on the air-con the whole night because the sound can disturb other guests sleep.
