What meal plans does Jawakara offer?
Four options: Half Board, Full Board, Breakfast Only, and Premium All-Inclusive (PAI). PAI guests dine at Saima, Aila or Vela — whichever buffet sits closest to their villa — with a Dine Around benefit added every 5 nights (one 3-course lunch and one 3-course dinner at an à la carte restaurant, pre-booking required) plus standing access to all three buffet restaurants.
