Island life is generally relaxed, warm, and community-oriented, with affordable local food, tropical beaches, markets, and outdoor activities such as snorkeling and hiking. Larger resorts may provide staff accommodation, meals, transport, uniforms, and service-charge benefits, although conditions vary. English is widely used in tourism, while Malay is the national language; Chinese and Tamil are also common.
