I'd argue the most anticipated hotel to join the Hilton Honors portfolio this year is the the Waldorf Astoria Maldives Ithaafushi. This hotel looks absolutely stunning, and isn't far from Male Airport, so it can be reached by speedboat rather than requiring a seaplane. Up until now rooms haven't been bookable, though the hotel has…

I saw this around 10 minutes ago too. Hope to visit there in August if the points rate drops to 95,000 or would visit the Saii Lagoon.

I get that the Maldives isn't going to have many last minute bookings, but requiring 15 days notice for cancellation on a flexible rate is pushing it a bit!

One way or another my 2019 Year-end Asian Escapade will include a 5-night (award) stay in the Maldives. I've deferred long enough. It's time...

Statistically speaking, I'm sure 90% of the families in middle-east muslim countries are somehow related between each other.

There are worse things that happen within the US yet we give them money.

The "Waldorf Astoria" in my personal opinion is well worth the $ gUaP $. They're top shelf, located in Manhattan "and yes I'm favoring them because I;m from Brooklyn," and you can have the most grand experience as a hotel guest, though I never personally stayed there. There's always something constructive to do in New York City for those who decide to stay at the Waldorf Astoria. For savvy marketers, they could earn all their $ gUaP $ back after staying at the famous Manhattan hotel, by documenting their experience with video, image, and content, and surrounding that content with adverts. This is the beauty of documenting your travels and earning handsome income. 🙂

allegedly? the livelihood of a lot of people working in this resort depends on customers staying in it. You are going to let them and their children starve just because you heard something "allegedly" happened?

Are you saying that it's better to support the current regime in Syria?

@KIA So there is a huge famine in the Maldives, that can only be alleviated if we spend around $4,000 a day for room and meals at a Waldorf Astoria?

@Impartial Bystander Better to not support any of the various sides, IMHO

@Tom "There are worse things that happen within the US":
What, pray tell, things "happen in the US" that are worse than what al Qaeda has done. World Trade Center destruction just being one of a long, long list. Are you thinking of college students wearing Black face 20 years ago, or what exactly?

@Robert Hanson - Every heard of:

(a) Sandy Hook
(b) Gay disco slaughtering in Orlando
(c) Vegas mass shooting
(d)
(e)
(f)
(g)
...
...
...

Those are just the memorable ones over a few years. Please search for "List of mass shootings in the United States in 2018" and see the carnage for just one year... and how mistaken you are.

G'day.

@DCS - Never mind the fact that the number of fatalities from mass shootings in 2018 was less than a tenth of the 9/11 fatalities.
