+100

I paid a significant quantity of cash (not $1,400 per night, but still a lot) for my trip, and to this day I tell people that 1) I have ZERO regrets, and 2) if I had the opportunity to do it again - even at such a high price - I would do it in a heartbeat.

Very private, especially at the end of the jetty
Only if someone swims by or a boat passes can one look in

Anyone know the time zone difference between Conrad and Male? I've heard 1 hour ahead and 1 hour behind. So confused.
Anyone know from experience?

Wow just got back from the Hyatt . INCREDIBLE!!!!! 70k UA to fly Turkish in J. Used 2x 2 free night Hyatt certs and paid close to 600$ per night for the OWB upgrade. Holy moley was it incredible. Best service I've ever had. So personalized. Words can't even describe. saw sharks, cuttlefish, sea turtles, dolphins, and an array of other fish near the house reef and also on dives. Wow. Just wow.

Was it worth the extra money for the OWB every night?

How was food?

If you paid 600 dollar for the upgrade per night, that's very much
I would say that's 800 a night if you value the used free night. For a Standart owv without pools, no mezie

There are countless places just as nice if not nicer. (Assuming your referring to the nature part)
