Preparing for your stay

Thank-you for choosing to stay on Hõriaos for your next holiday.

We’ve no doubt that you’ll love Hõriaos as much as we do. We hope

the information in this booklet will answer any questions you may

have about your stay, but should you have any more, please get in

touch with us.

Health & Immigration

When you are travelling in and out of Hõriaos (and when you arrive

on the island where you will be taken to Hõriaos from) you will need

to be able to present a valid passport for every member of your party,

as well as the respective forms and visas—you can find out more

about those on the MGB website (mgb.gov).

Hõriaos is free of all dangerous illnesses, and Hõriaos is not a malar-

ia zone. Hõriaos does however have mosquitoes like any other tropi-

cal island, so wearing anti-repellent spray is recommended, whether

you bring one from home or use the complimentary anti-repellent

spray provided.

What To Wear

Like most other islands in the area, Hõriaos is usually hot and quite

humid. By all means pack beach and casualwear, as well as some

swimwear. If you do forget anything, we’ve got some complimentary

swimwear as well as normal clothes avaliable in each guest villa, and

at the Guest Services Hut. You are never required to wear smart

clothes when you’re on Hõriaos, as beachwear is acceptable every-

where! We do ask, however, that guests please have tops and bot-

toms on when they dine on the beach.

For guests who would like to explore the central island areas, thin

long trousers are recommended, due to the nature of the central are-

as. But please don’t feel pressured to bring smart clothes—that’s up

to you!

Safety

We take safety very seriously on Hõriaos. We have a resident emer-

gency response team as well as teams on other islands a 5 minute

helicopter ride away. During the rainy season (Normally November—

February), the island is suspect to heavy rainfall, but nothing to be

concerned about. The island is protected against thunderstorms all

year round.

As weather is unpredictable at the best of times, the island is always

subject to small tropical storms. The island staff will ensure your

safety at all times. Staff will be on hand, should you have any ques-

tions.

Activities

You’re never short of things to on the island. You can take advantage

of most activities as much as you like for free. If there’s anything

that’s not on the list, contact us, and we can try and arrange it for

you.
