Re: Lazy Tourists in the Maldives
Lovely villa. People that can not understand the appeal of private pool villas probably haven't ever stayed in one. I am sure if money were not an issue no poster on this board would refuse to stay in such a place. Phuketrichard seems to be one of the few here that understand the lure and use of a pool like this. It is where you relax at night with your wine as he said. Try going down the steps and doing that in the open sea. It is possible but this is catering to luxury guests who want the wine to be in a bucket of ice near them.
I would much rather relax in this pool after dark than the open sea. Many people would be afraid to go in the ocean after dark. Some people have kids as well and I am sure the kids would love this set up. There are many things in the world to hate on but this room isn't one of them. It isn't designed for the $5 a night fan room audience obviously. As far as the people being stupid to pay for this... I am sure they got rich enough to stay in places like this because they are stupid. If you are rich staying in a place like this is a drop in the bucket. If you are running up credit card bills to pay for it maybe it would be better spent on something else.
Anybody have any idea where this villa is and the cost per night? I am guessing it is around $1,200 a night. I am sure there is a special discount if you show a TEFL certificate.

In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. HST

Decisions, decisions, too many to chose from, makes going on holiday too complicated. I'll stay home, much cheaper and good enough for me. If I get tired of the pool, there's plenty of river.phuketrichard wrote:there so many to chose from;

Re: Lazy Tourists in the Maldives
4000islandsguy is spot on qith his post
Way too many to choose from, haha! The good thing about most of the Maldives resorts, are that their prices are usually all inclusive (F&B, transfers, water sports/activities, spa services, etc).phuketrichard wrote:there so many to chose from;
