    Wow this is such an amazing trip, Im jealous and I did this trip earlier myself. You guys had the same person greet you that we did as well. That excursion with Lagoon Service is a must do. My wife is so excited to come back and visit St Regis. I should have never showed her this video. We are going to make her 11 so we can get the ice cream haha

    Awesome video. How many nights did u stay at each resort?
    Are you bonvoy titanium or platinum? It seems conrad doesnt give complimentary upgrades easily to overwater villlas. Did they offer you a price quote for that?

    • @LetsGetToThePoints
      @LetsGetToThePoints  Рік тому

      Hi! Thank you for watching! Serena stayed 3 nights at Conrad and 1 night at St Regis.

    • @PassionForPoints
      @PassionForPoints Рік тому

      Hi! I have only Marriott Gold status via the Business Platinum card. Conrad IS pretty stingy with the OW upgrades. They do offer cash upgrades and you get these in emails prior to your arrival.

    • @PassionForPoints

      We wrapped this trip around a school 4-day weekend so we were not able to stay very long at each property. Just enough to get a taste!

    Hi. How were you able to book just one room for 4 people?

    • @LetsGetToThePoints
      @LetsGetToThePoints  Рік тому

      Hi! Conrad will allow 2 adults and 2 children under 13 yrs in a room. Max occupancy is typically 3 adults. St Regis may also make an exception for children.

    Thank you for this great video. I have a 3 year old and wasn't sure if Bora Bora was a place for families. What was the minimum age for the Kid Club at the Conrad? I went to the Hilton website and couldn't find any info. Also, did they have daily activities for kids as well? Thanks

    • @LetsGetToThePoints
      @LetsGetToThePoints  Рік тому +1

      Hi! Thank you for watching. Officially, the min age is 5 yrs. For your 3 yr old, we recommend emailing the property to see what they can do for your little one. They have very few children at any time and may be able to make an exception for your family.

    • @PassionForPoints
      @PassionForPoints Рік тому

      Hi and thank you for watching. Bora Bora is definitely a place for families. These properties aren't used to seeing a ton a children so when little ones are present, they get extra attention. There are daily activities for everyone including lei making, leaf braiding, and ukelele lessons. In the kids club, I did not notice any scheduled activities. Children are able to choose what they want to do with guidance from the counselors. I hope you get to go one day soon!

    What a fun trip. How can you fit 4 in one room? I see those rooms have max 3 people.

    • @PassionForPoints
      @PassionForPoints Рік тому

      Hi! I explained more of that in Episode 21 when I gave the entire points and miles breakdown of the trip. These resorts will allow specific aged children in the villas with you. I reached out to each resort in advance to inquire.

    • @LetsGetToThePoints
      @LetsGetToThePoints  Рік тому

      Hi! Thanks for watching! The max in the room “usually” applies to number of adults. It just depends on what age each property considers an adult. It’s always a good idea to reach out to the property by emailing them. Also check out Episode 21 for more about the points and miles booking details.

    How did you book your boat transfer between resorts and how much was it? We are doing the same in 2 weeks between intercontinental and Conrad

    • @PassionForPoints
      @PassionForPoints Рік тому +1

      Hi! You can contact Conrad and Intercontinental for their pricing. Each will provide a one way private transfer quote. Conrad charged $290 and St Regis charge $470. I obviously went with Conrad. There's an even less expensive way if you take the free boat ride to Vaitape, then make your way to the Intercontinental dock and take their boat to the resort (or vice versa). The properties can provide more details on that for you. Have a great time! I highly recommend the activity we did. Link is in the caption.

    • @LetsGetToThePoints
      @LetsGetToThePoints  5 місяців тому

      Thank you for watching! May through Oct is the dry season. Fall is better for whale watching. Serena went in Sept and it rained so your mileage may vary. Avoid winter break because there will be significantly fewer chances for upgrades. We hope you get to visit soon!

    Thank you for this video! I’m headed to the Conrad with my two kids, 8 & 10, in June. I’ve read that the Conrad charges half off for kids dt their restaurants - was this your experience?

      Hi! That's awesome! My kids are 8 and 12 yrs so I'm sure your kids will have a great time! Conrad did not inform us of half off at the restaurant. I had no idea! Maybe because my kids ordered from the kids menu? Let us know how your trip went when you get back!
