  • After 40+ hours of travel, we finally made it to Conrad Maldives Rangali Island!
    Join us as we check into our Deluxe water villa with pool, and explore the resort on our first day in the Maldives.
    In this video, we give you a full tour of a Maldives overwater bungalow and show you what it is like to travel to the Maldives during Covid.
    Conrad Rangali Island Is located on two islands, and the way to get to this luxury Maldives resort is via seaplane on Trans Maldivian Airways.

    I watched your Conrad bora bora video and loved it. The hubby and I went to the Conrad in bora bora and thought it was the nicest resort ever. We stayed in an over water bungalow there. We are headed to the Maldives in December. How would you compare the two Conrads? Which did you like better? Room category? Resort?

    • @TheAwkwardTourists
      @TheAwkwardTourists  2 роки тому +1

      Thanks so much for watching! Conrad Maldives is a stunning resort, but truthfully I think I liked Bora Bora a little bit more. I just love the Polynesian culture and thought the resort was a more manageable size. But that doesn't mean I didn't love Conrad Maldives! We stayed in a sunset villa with pool

    Amazing video!
    I'm wondering how did you manage the upgrade. Usually, this property says that they don't offer complementary upgrade for Diamond/Gold members for free but you could pay for an upgrade. Did you ask to be upgraded for free or they simply do it without asking?
    Thanks!

    • @TheAwkwardTourists
      @TheAwkwardTourists  2 роки тому

      We did not ask for an upgrade. We did, However tell them that we were coming and that we had a youtube channel and would be filming, so I don't know if that had anything to do with the upgrade or we just got lucky

    • @TheAwkwardTourists
      @TheAwkwardTourists  2 роки тому +1

      We did notify the hotel. On our tv, which gave us a ton on info on the resort, they had a section on flying drones. There is designated drone area my Ufaa restaurant, but we were granted permission to fly at a few more areas since we were making a video. The main concern was privacy for the other guests, they did not want you to fly over other peoples rooms
