RENTAL PROGRAMME

Your Residence is yours to enjoy. Our Residence Rental Programme has been carefully created to be tailored to your lifestyle needs. The Residential Rental Programme is a compulsory part of our sublease ownership terms. It allows you to enjoy your Private Residence and offset the ownership expenses with an income generated by the rental of your property when you are not at the resort. Every quarter, Property will calculate the gross revenues generated by your Residence. In order to ensure the smooth running of the Rental Programme, well ask you to provide us with a schedule of when you would like your Residence to be made available for your exclusive use over the next calendar year. Gross revenues will exclude sales commission and gross taxes. From gross revenues, Resort will take 10% to pay for those expenses associated with the rental of your residence, such as utilities, housekeeping, laundry, daily room amenities for villa guests and marketing expenses.

The remaining 90% of room revenue is split between you and Resort on a 50/50 basis. From your 50% share, annual ownership expenses equivalent to 1.5%^ of the purchase price are deducted. A further 0.5% of the purchase price will be deducted annually and set aside. The resulting net revenues can then be remitted to you (subject to applicable Maldivian withholding and income taxes, currently at 15%). You can also keep the net revenue inresort and apply it against future spending. This way, you can use it as credit against additional holiday expenses incurred from using resort facilities and amenities such as your food and drinks, excursions, water- sports and spa treatments.
