Before you book

What meal plans are available?

The official site doesn't publish meal-plan tiers for Taj Exotica. Every villa includes 24-hour in-villa dining as standard, and private Ocean Pavilion, over-the-water, beach, dug-out and seasonal sandbank dining can all be booked for an extra cost. We confirm current meal-plan options and pricing with the resort at the time of booking.
