What are the “check-in” and “check-out” times?
Provided there are no guests before you, you are generally free to arrive on Pangkil as early as you like. Similarly we don’t enforce a check-out time if there is not a group arriving on the day you check out. Realistically the public ferries to and from Singapore are the limitation. You’re unlikely to arrive on Pangkil (from Singapore) much before lunch and will generally need to leave Pangkil around mid-afternoon in order to catch the last ferry back to Singapore. In the rare event that there is an overlap, we’ll allow two groups on the island for an hour or two, usually over lunch and if both groups agree. Another option is for the arriving (or departing) party to visit Pulau Murbai, our picnic island, for lunch, thereby avoiding the other party. In general, weekend groups have precedence over weekday groups.
