Oasimo Stay Match
One hotel. The right room. A clear reason to book it.
Found a few water stays worth considering, but still unsure which one earns the budget? Send your dates and must-haves. I’ll research the options and recommend the one I’d book for your brief – with two backups and the compromises spelled out.
€99 · delivered by email and PDF · one revision included
A great hotel can still be the wrong booking.
- The private pool belongs to a different villa category than the one you were pricing.
- The swim-up terrace faces a busy shared pool, not the quiet one in the photos.
- The nightly rate looks fair until you add a compulsory boat transfer.
Stay Match checks the details that decide whether a stay actually fits the trip you’re taking.
What you receive
- One recommendation
- The hotel, the exact room or villa category, and why it fits the three things you said matter most.
- Two backups
- Alternatives to take if you'd rather a different compromise, or your first choice sells out.
- A dated price check
- The accommodation price I saw for your dates, the rate conditions, and any compulsory extras. Anything I can't confirm is marked as unconfirmed.
- The water details
- Private or shared pool, how you reach the room, privacy limits, and any restrictions that would matter to you.
- A day-by-day outline
- A relaxed shape for the stay, with up to two optional water-activity ideas. Not an hour-by-hour plan.
- One revision
- Send your feedback within seven days. I'll revise within the same destination, dates and budget.
It arrives as a short email with the decision up front, and a PDF of no more than five pages.
What a recommendation looks like
Here is the shape of what lands in your inbox – decision first, then the checks behind it.
The pick
The resort you flagged as your favourite – but the Sunset Overwater category, not the Lagoon one you were pricing.
The deciding reason
On your dates, only the Sunset category has a private pool and a direct step-down to the lagoon within your budget. The Lagoon villas share a pool deck.
The main compromise
It’s the 25-minute speedboat transfer, not a seaplane. The two closer resorts on your list came in over budget.
Price check
Around €4,600 for 5 nights, half board, checked on a weekday. Return transfer €190 per person, compulsory. The rate is non-refundable; a flexible rate was about €500 more.
Board and transfer confirmed from the official site · spa credit unconfirmedBackups
One with a shorter transfer, if you’d trade the private pool for it. One if the dates slip a week.
Outline
A loose five-night rhythm: land and settle, two slow days, one full-day boat trip, a reef morning, fly out.

Who it’s for
- Couples choosing one room or villa, in one destination, for up to seven nights.
- Accommodation budgets from €1,500.
- Travel starting at least 21 days away.
- You know roughly where you’re going. You want help with the final choice.
How it works
- Send your brief. Your dates, your accommodation budget, and the three things that matter most. No payment yet.
- I confirm I can help. Within one business day: the scope and a €99 payment link, or – if your trip is outside what this covers – a note telling you so before you pay.
- Your match arrives. Within three business days of payment and a complete brief, if you ask me to start straight away. I confirm the exact date when payment comes through.
You make every booking yourself, directly with each provider.
Who does the research
I’m the editor of Oasimo. I spend my time researching water stays by the feature people actually search for – a swim-up room, a private pool, an overwater villa, a beach you can walk onto.
For a Stay Match, I check the room information and current rates against your brief myself. I use research tools, including AI, and I take responsibility for the recommendation. I don’t claim to have stayed at every property I put forward.
Questions
Why pay when the Oasimo guides are free?
The guides compare a destination. Stay Match applies your actual dates, budget and priorities to one hotel-and-room decision, and checks the details behind it.
Will you book anything for me?
No. The €99 covers research and planning advice only. You buy the accommodation, transfers and activities yourself, from their providers.
Are the prices and availability guaranteed?
No. I record when I checked them. Providers change prices and availability, and nothing is held.
What if you can't find a stay that fits?
If I can't find one that meets the essential requirements we agree before payment, I refund the fee.
What if I change my mind?
You can ask for a full refund within 14 days of purchase, including after delivery. This is on top of any statutory rights.
What does the revision cover?
One consolidated set of changes within the original destination, dates and budget. A new destination or new dates is a new order. Fixing my own mistakes doesn't use your revision.
Can you plan flights, several destinations or a group trip?
Those are outside this service, along with reservations, price monitoring and support during the trip.
Do you earn affiliate commissions?
The Oasimo guides carry affiliate links that may earn a commission. Your paid Stay Match report uses plain, non-affiliate links. The recommendation is chosen for fit with your brief, nothing else.
