Chiles,
I've included a link below that will give you pricing ideas including phones and minutes.Iridium seems to be a good phone. I know a few who have them. If you can see the sky, you can talk. Very heavy storm clouds can be a problem.
They have saved a few customers that got stuck in the Bahamas and I talked them thru the repairs.
Just make sure you have a way to keep the battery charged if you have no power for long periods of time.
Solar chargers work really well.
