bump --
OK, its been awhile since I last asked, and in that time I have amassed 1MM+ points (MR+UR+DL+AA+etc), and I now need to start planning for my honeymoon.
My options:
Bora Bora -
+'s: I have wanted to go here since I was a child. The mystique it carries is second to none.
-'s: No Hyatt property*; no award availability from PPT-BOB
* Hyatt as far as I can tell would be the best redemption for me based on the points I have.
Maldives -
+'s: Hyatt property; also said to be beautiful (though not to the level of BOB)
-'s: Distance (couple thousand miles farther than PPT)
Kauai -
+'s: Dan has been there with at least one TR; Hyatt property; closest
-'s: From what I understand, it isn't MLE or BOB
My main requirements for this trip are 1) spend as little actual $$ as possible, 2) clear water and 3) (if possible--though I reaaaaally want it) an over water villa/bungalow.
Random notes:
--I have two free nights in a Hyatt suite and a few suite upgrade certs
--I am not top-tier at any hotel, but am Hyatt Plat, SPG Gold, HHonors Gold
Based on the above info (though I am sure you guys need more info to be truly helpful, I'll start with this and answer any forthcoming questions as best I can) thoughts on where to go for my honeymoon?
Thanks for the input.
