    if you want to build a good website, not only a mfa website, buy both of them, and make redirects, anyway, search engines can't see that there are 2 words or 3, no effect on your search engine ranking.

    I would buy both and redirect the first one to the second one.(i.e:I'll build site with the second domain,just redirect the first to that site)

    It does not matter! I have "and" in my main travel site yet have very good ranking in search engines for my targted keywords.

    http://www.sunandsea-maldives.com

    In my experience, there is absolutely no effect! ;)

    look at the potential of keywords and business which can be generated with the domain and then make your decision
