Choose your island visits

Both stays include lunch on the island days below. On other days, lunch is separate, leaving you to choose a village café or a table at Nala Bistro.

Food you would like to try

Share the dishes you are curious about, foods you prefer to avoid and what you would like to learn to cook. The kitchen will consider your preferences alongside the day's preparations.

Please tell us about allergies or dietary needs so we can discuss suitable choices with the kitchens you will visit. Allergen-free dishes cannot be assured at every stop. Mention a serious allergy again when ordering.

Time between island lunches

Your island visits are arranged during the stay to suit sea and weather conditions. Between them, return to a favourite café or try somewhere new on Ukulhas. If you would like more than six nights, include the extra dates in your enquiry.
