🧖♀️ After long walks, the super cheap spas & massages were the real highlight – just ₹500/hour (USD 6)!

💰 Rough Budget: Around ₹18,000 (USD 215) per person for 2 nights – including ferry, hotel, food & activities!

📌 Top Travel Tip: Book a ferry + hotel combo package online for big savings! Use Grab app for local travel. Always carry some cash in IDR.
