Enjoy and post a TR!
Ask for villa #51.

I will be going to the PH Maldives Jun 19-24 and I have a few Q's:
how do I order Kosher food?
How do I contact the Hotel (google voice says its .70 per minute) any Ideas..
If I'll be arriving in MLE at 10:10pm will the Hotel arrange a flight so late at night?

please tell me any thing I should know about the place, activities to do etc.
I plan on reserving the OWB #51 for the first night and hopefully they wont kick me out  :o

Thank you!

  • Location: The value of a forum such as this one is not in that one can post a question and receive an answer, but in that the question has most likely been asked before, and the answer is available to him that will but only use the search function.
  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.

Just call Hyatt and ask for a transfer I assume. Then ask the hotel direct. I am just guessing...

1. You can order kosher food from Australia. Ask @chuchem for the contact, though they aren't cheap.
2. Try skype.
3. Unlikely; you'll probably have to overnight in MLE.

I did that 2x and it so happened that they transfered me, but there was no concierge because it was night there.  :o
so I called when it was the right time and they keep on saying that its against policy and the reps that did do it for me before weren't allowed to (I called like 4x and now all say the same..)

May 9th-13th
Here is the email I got from themAs we are located in the south of the Maldives, there is an approximately 55 minute’s domestic transfer flight from Male International Airport followed by a short speed boat journey from the domestic airport to the resort. All domestic flights are scheduled around arriving and departing international flights. You may have a minimum of 1 hour and maximum waiting time of 2 hours prior to any domestic flight. All guests waiting for a domestic flight will be escorted to the Airport Lounge where light refreshments are available. Our airport representative will overlook all arrangements and ensure that you have a smooth transfer on the next available flight.If you would like to share any of your preferences, or if there is anything more I can assist you with at this stage, please feel free to contact me at any time, I will be more than delighted to assist you.I look forward to welcoming you to the island.Warmest regards,

does that mean that even though its 10:10pm they will arrange a flight for you? (because in that email it doesn't say explicitly that they will)

EWR-SIN is an all business class flight, so clearly you are not flying economy on that
