If you go to Maldives then you are supporting Nazi principles. Maldives constitution says only Sunni Muslims can become citizens similar to Nazi principles. Boycott Maldives
25 years ago we came the first time to the maldives. It was much less luxury.. We enjoyed the incredible underwater life. Today nearly everything is destroyed or dead. Today you can „swim“ in your private pool and watch underwater life at the TV.
@@laurandnicolas You're welcome. I sent you and Nicolas an email. I hope you received it. It entails helping people all over the world with vacationing to these opulent destinations you recommend. #Grateful 🙏🏾
Hi @laurandnicolas, just wanted to check one thing. Like your usual vlogs of Maldives, you didn't upload the tour of resort hence few questions 1. How was the food here? 2. Is this better or St Regis? Thanks
How does the plumbing work? Where does the tap water come from? How do they do for the toilet? Where do their feces go? What happens during storms? The sea level doesn't rise?
Amazing....... Ritz Carlton is a Luxury Brand and I didn't know they were in Maldives! I appreciate the privacy and the complementary tea(my favorite)!!!! I will be landing in Maldives!!! Grateful for the share💚💚 Queen!!
Especially when they bring in the huge sand barges and pour hundreds of acres of concrete on top of coral reefs, and pay poor governments to turn a blind eye to their total devastation of the area.... Wow.... not too bright.....
Ritz Carlton is nice.. but Try Ja manafaru.... Beautiful island.. you have your butler oncall 24 7, yes you'll have to take the seaplane, but the flight is amazing, best view of the maldives in your 45-50mins flight...... you have to ck offen, some time you'll get it under $1000 a night during Hot season. we went during January, around $1000 a nite.... which is not bad for what you get... th-cam.com/video/KsEVxRUMAo4/w-d-xo.html
I've been to many countries and lived also some long stays ....5 years Thailand and 5 years India, 2 years Sri Lanka.....no matter where I have travelled to and what I have seen, nothing has come close to what I have experienced in deep meditation and I can be almost anywhere doing that (even in super noisy busy train stations I've blissed out in meditation) and need basically nothing to do it but the practice of appropriate techniques....... it's amazing because it's free and God got me there always, because "there" is wherever I am 😊🙏
@@dimuthu8888 My bad :o( I totally forgot about that open wall on the one side. Its kind of a weird design now that I think about it. My apologies. I will be more careful when writing.
Wow Ritz Carlton always offers stunning experience to its guests. This one is truly gorgeous. Thank you very much for sharing. Happy day and lots of love from Bali 🌞🌎🌛
just checked the price for one week there you are looking at 15000 - 25000€ depending on the season and this does not include the transfer to and from the island. absolute insanity.
i wonder where do the electricity and water comes from to these villas . and where do the sewage go to. and how do the internet is provided in the middle of the sea in an island.if any body know answers to my question please answer me.
i like the hotel life. its the best. even if you have a wonderful home it wont be as luxurious as a hotel room. the service in resorts and hotels is amazing
I was participating in one of the parts of designing process of this hotel. But I was on junior-junior-junior position. I can say they changed their design a lot. Initially it was more complex.
How does the sewage sytem work, does it run under the walkway or under the sea? Is there any special difficulty in making them ‘hover’ over the sea? What about designing for high and low tides? How about tall waves during storms?
We stayed in an over the water villa at Paradise Island in the Maldives in 2019. Video or photos don't do the water colours any justice. Marine life was endless and we spent all day in the water. Two countries everyone should experience for their natural beauty are the Maldives and Iceland.
So BEAUTIFUL; The Villa's built over the calm waters sceneries is absolutely BEAUTIFULNESS; and 👀 looks sooo relaxing. 😘↗ If I were looking for vacationing, I most certainly would consider vacationing there.
@@laurandnicolas😘↗ I love to speak for myself↗I don't like the Villa; but, see by the attached 🎥 show the Villa's appear as ↗So BEAUTIFUL; BEAUTIFULNESS.
im from Philippines we never tried a family outing like this. My kids never tried to ride an airplane. But i am Wishing and praying that one day me and my family can go to that place too.
There are more than 10 restaurants you can go to! After you unpack there’s so much stuff to do! Snorkelling, diving, jet ski, tennis, wine tastings, yoga, cooking classes, seabob, sunset cruises, …
The Ritz Carlton does it right, but for my money, I would go back to Namale in Fiji. It’s so private and beautiful and the liquor is included. Also, the Fijian people are worth the trip alone. Bula! 🇫🇯🌞🌴
It seems that there is severe water damage to the front door of the villa. You would think that a hotel chain of this caliber would have chosen the correct door material and finish to use in a space built above sea water. Otherwise, beautiful rooms and gorgeous views.
It will probably be upwards of $700 for the seaplane (15min ride). Most guests take the speedboat (which takes around 50 minutes and is a little bit cheaper), because you actually save a lot of time by not having to wait on the seaplane, and you can arrive and depart the resort at any time of day (seaplanes only fly until 4pm)!
Excellent review! Just a few questions: 1) Regarding Marriott brands, how does this resort compare to the St. Regis? Which one would you pick? 2) Tossing in a Hilton brand, out of The Ritz-Carlton, St. Regis, and Waldorf Astoria, which one would you pick?
Those are some great questions! It all depends on what you're looking for! WA & RC have more dining options than the St Regis. St Regis has bigger villas than RC, but WA has even bigger villas. St Regis feels much more natural than both WA and RC, which are both manmade islands. Snorkeling is also better at the St Regis. We lost our hearts to the St Regis, as it was the first resort we ever did in The Maldives, but we would gladly go back to all 3 :-).
Yes they are! You should check out the 2-bedroom beach villa (or 2-bedroom overwater villa)! They are AMAZING! Just click the booking link in the description and you'll see the different types of villas
I just watched it again. I love your graceful style in which you describe this amazing villa. You are such an asset to the Ritz or any hotel you give a tour of… they are so lucky to have you ❤️🌎✈️ and taking the time to respond to me was so nice!
The good ole 0.1%...apparently this place runs about $4000 US per night minimum. For contrast, I just spent about a month travelling around southern Thailand in Ao Nang, Koh Lanta, Khanom and Koh Samui, staying in nice rooms (although nothing like this, of course) on the beaches for a grand total of around $500 US. Meals and gas for the motorbike included in that number. The world we live in is pretty messed up, if wondrously beautiful 😅
Hehe yes it’s not for everyone! South East Asia is so amazing for cheap travels! We backpacked around SEA for 5 months in 2019 and I think the most expensive hotel we stayed at was 40$ a night 😂
OK I subscribed, she's an awesome presenter of an incredible resort. Would love to see her at Soneva Jani. In the meantime, love her accent, is she Latino, French, Spanish, French Canadian (she sounds like Celine Dion) or ????????????
Utterly gorgeous. The circle villas are brilliant. Complete tranquility. Ultimate honeymoon destination.
The maldives are a bucket list trip! It looks absolutely amazing!
Yes it definitely is! 😍
not really that exiting - skip it! Fiji is where you want to be!
@@Ghostina1 why limit yourself when you can do both !!!
@@kirn3afek I did both... Seychelles are even better than Maledives. And if must be that part of the earth better go Sri Lanka...

Exactly. This is absolute selfishness. These kind of things shouldn't be allowed but money always wins. This hotel is disgusting.
looks like a dream

Absolutely love it! Would love to see more luxury hotel vlogs from you guys. ♥️♥️♥️
Love this hotel’s design!
Yes, it's very unique and a nice addition to The Maldives hotel scene!
This looks *so* sustainable. There should be millions of resorts like this in the Indian Ocean for tourists from all over the world
I’m going to assume that you’re being ironic!”tourists from all over the world”can’t afford 1500 dollars a night .
😅😅
Delusional affluent people convince themselves they're being sustainable as a coping mechanism for their decadent lifestyles.
@@baliksupper6043 l agree whith you.1500 dollars? No thanks

Something so inviting about the Maldives Sea 😍. On my list of places to visit
Hope you make it there soon! It's definitely a magical place!

Wow!! This is my idea of a perfect getaway. I love the total privacy in the design. Great video. Thanks for the tour.
total privacy? you blind? you dont see the other villas 10 feet from you
Thank you so much for watching!
It's a good point! You have a sense of complete privacy, but in reality the villa on your left can see your whole outdoor deck.
Total privacy? Hope you're being sarcastic

Yes, it's an amazing hotel brand!
Is the entrance door in the background @0:21-0:39 rusty or rustic?
(I trust it is rustic, never the less strange look)
Definitely rustic!
just checked the price for one week there you are looking at 15000 - 25000€ depending on the season and this does not include the transfer to and from the island.
absolute insanity.
Yes, that's about correct. Food isn't cheap either and can quickly make the trip more expensive.
Interesting
Guess there is no limit to insanity.
Or include the alcohol!! Seriously?? Give me a break.
This might be the best TH-cam channel to have with your TH-cam. 🤔😎

Loved the part where she discussed price, how to get there etc. (Spoiler alert - she doesn't bother lmao).
if you have to ask the price, then you can't afford it!
@@jamchris98 good to know.
For a week in the summer, the price is about $17,000 - $20,000 depending on when you go. That’s without flights, meals, drinks, etc.
@@jeffw8218 yup, it's a pipe dream for me
Maybe they figure you’re a big girl, and you can look it up if you’re really interested, and financially capable.
i wonder where do the electricity and water comes from to these villas . and where do the sewage go to. and how do the internet is provided in the middle of the sea in an island.if any body know answers to my question please answer me.
Maldives one of my favorite places to be in this world. Haven't been back since 2019 due to COVID-19 going on.

Yes, service really makes all the difference!
I was participating in one of the parts of designing process of this hotel. But I was on junior-junior-junior position. I can say they changed their design a lot. Initially it was more complex.
Hi, any idea if the foundation is custom designed or provided as pods so to speak? I’d like to learn more as they are very nice
Shut up
That's me in pool years ago Maldives.
Cool, but I don’t like it. A bunch of circles. All the same, very boring to me. Blaaahhhh…. I like the look of Soneva Jani a lot more.
How does the sewage sytem work, does it run under the walkway or under the sea? Is there any special difficulty in making them ‘hover’ over the sea? What about designing for high and low tides? How about tall waves during storms?
May I ask what’s the white set that you were wearing? Love it!
Beautiful villas 👍👍👌👌🤗

Those are high season rates, you can go for cheaper in July/August for example.
Would you recommend the Ritz over the St Regis?
Right now it's St Regis over Ritz for us personally, but hope to go back to the Ritz later this year and maybe change our minds!
The good ole 0.1%...apparently this place runs about $4000 US per night minimum.
