Explained
Why the same resort pays different amounts
Maldivian resorts add a 10% service charge to every guest bill. By law it is pooled and distributed to staff monthly, usually as an equal share per employee, on top of base salary.
Because it tracks guest spending, it moves with occupancy: high season (December to April) pays visibly more than the May to September trough. Read every figure with its month.
