Wow, that's a great price. Sincerely happy for you  :D.

Roundtrip including taxes and fees?  If yes, that's like a 75% reduction.

Effective from 15th November until further notice, you are required to present a PCR test result as a part of your departure requirements; our resort can facilitate this process. We have partnered with private hospitals in Male City to provide this service at US$ 80 per person per test. An advance notice of 72 hours before the departure date is required.
That's a lot cheaper that SR is charging:

"On-site PCR testing charges will be USD 165.00 subject to 23.2% Service Charge & T-GST per person."
