Dated cost examples
Six dated, itemised examples from 2026-11-10 to 2026-11-16: 6 nights and 7 days for two adults sharing one room, which is 14 person-days. Prices are as observed in September 2026, cover ground costs only, and are not multiplied out to other party sizes or trip lengths.
Dated planning estimate for two adults sharing one room, 10–16 November 2026, seven days/six nights. Flights excluded. Actual prices, availability, taxes and transport timing may differ; see the assumptions.
Local transport in Grand Baie is walking only: no taxis, car hire or island tours are priced. The visitor levy is inferred to be inside the hotel price, not itemised, so it is not added again.

Practical notes
MRU transfers use the official Grand Baie daytime tariff, counted once each way with return parity disclosed. The base itinerary assumes walking within Grand Baie and La Cuvette; no island-wide transport is included. Restaurant prices are meal-category benchmarks, not an instruction to travel to the sampled hotel for every meal. Resort meal plans were not exposed, so no breakfast or half-board credit is claimed.
Limits of these examples
Bounded scope only; does not complete the entire country. Hotel board, bedding and cancellation are not exposed; tax field interpretation is recorded. Numeric traits/month scores are editorial proposals, not survey results, safety ratings or new scoring logic. Walking-only local plan excludes taxis and island tours; reprice if the traveler needs vehicle access. Water menu volume unstated; allowance is not a hydration claim. Hotel visitor levy inclusion inferred arithmetically, not independently confirmed.
