Before you book
What meal plan does Joy Island run?
All Inclusive is the only plan named on the official site — breakfast, lunch and dinner at The Market, afternoon tea, beverages by the glass (cocktails, mocktails, soft drinks, beers, house wines and spirits), and non-motorised water sports (kayaking, snorkelling, SUP) are all included. There's no separate half-board or full-board tier stated, which is unusual among the resorts we work with.
