True cave rooms don't have windows in the back, which keeps them cool and dark. If you are worried about feeling closed in, just tell us when you book. We can arrange a "stone room" or an "arch room" for you—these are built above ground with regular windows but still have that authentic stone look.
The flight includes 15kg of checked luggage and 8kg of hand luggage.

If you need to bring everything, that's fine too—you can pay for extra weight at the airport if needed.
