How these benefits work

White Desert's amenity list differs from most properties: the upgrade benefit does not apply here. A daily breakfast is provided for up to two guests per accommodation, and instead of a spending credit, a 100 USD donation is made on each Virtuoso guest's behalf to either The Ocean Clean-Up or The White Desert Foundation, whichever the guest chooses. Early check-in and late check-out are requested in advance and confirmed on the day, subject to availability, and complimentary Wi-Fi is included. These are the Virtuoso reference amenities for 2025; which of them applies, along with the rate and cancellation terms, follows the live rate for the dates you choose.

Pick your dates and the button carries them into the live rate page; leave them empty and it still works.
