Thank you for the review. I appreciate things like this because Maldives and Bora Bora are definitely on my bucket list. Just need to know how & what credit cards to use. Thanks Sebby!
ALWAYS... tell us how you booked using points #goodstuff👍👍
probably have to be a plat or higher to get this on points, unless there is a cash or points upgrade option.
Keyword “ALWAYS”
Right
just looked it up for 3/14-3/19/2020, as a platinum member using points with the 5th night free, the room featured in this video cost 555,000 points (or $1,000+355,00 points)... and also $745 for the seaplane (only available during daylight hours) per person, and $5.60 per kilo over the initial 30 kilo for luggage.... not going to be cheap... If you don't have a saturday within your stay period, it's only 540,000 points. note, the package that includes food is not available using points...
@@talast2000 Do you know if breakfast is complimentary for gold status?
“Before y’all mess up the room” ..lol
By that I mean unpack and charge all our electronics 😭😂
😉 Right
As he points to the bed 😜
@AskSebby #AskSebby was like, What, wait wait wait. Children are watching these videos and reading the comments and replies guys!!!
There is absolutely nothing wrong with these kind of videos. Especially when these trips are obtained with points, which make it totally relevant to your channel. I'll live vicariously through you, until I'm able to take these type of epic vacations. Enjoy yourself Sebby! :D
Wow! I absolutely love the open layout of that hotel room.
Keep the aspirational videos coming and yes talk about points for that stay
Great video. I definitely would like to see more videos like this one!
I love this video! Keep doing them
Seb's Back! glad to see you're ok!
Thanks, almost 100% recovered!

*This place looks nuts!! I love it!*
Enjoying every moment so far! :)
Omg that room is bad ass!!!
I echo everyone else’s thoughts…would LOVE a video on how you booked with points!
Would love to see a points strategy for the Maldives! Especially for the St. Regis
#AskSebby yes continue to share the walkthroughs! I imagine some of your followers want to see every feature your travels offers you. Yes please share how points make these trips achievable.
We love Mandy! Like these videos too
Love it!
That’s a beautiful room!!!
This is dope, it actually shows what you can get with points.
I've been re-watching all these room tours again cause I miss these, Seb. Hopefully, 2021 means back to traveling!
Yes continue to make videos like this-- pls show how to book with points.
I like it... Keep up the good job
Can please do a how to point redemption for Hilton Maldives. Planing to go there next year and wanted to see if someone knew the process. Thanks.
Bye the way, great video.
Love it! And I want to see how you get it with points!!! 🤗🤗🤗
The hat rocks! Definitely want to hear the points used on that trip!
Like it, good stuff hope to see more of it. I just could never afford it even though I am making those points come in like crazy. How to book these trips would be cool to see as well. Enjoy your trip!
Looks amazing. Please let us know how you booked this using your points ..thanks as always 👍
I like stuff like this 😜 keep it up 🤘
Yes i love this tutorial videos keep making them sebastian. im dreaming of doing this next year and i have about 195K chase points so my question to you what would be the best strategy to get that bungalow water villa?
Hyatt is your best bet; either have status or pay for OWV: th-cam.com/video/InwBzJByBqc/w-d-xo.html
Are you still there? I'm literally gonna be there later today!
See you soon? :)
Did you guys meet?
Beautiful
Super cool

YESSSSSS BEEN WAITING ON THIS LET'S ROLL SEBBBBBB 🤙🤙🤙🤙
😎🏖️
@@AskSebby man rock that hat seb lol dont let mandy hate lololol
I am going to the Maldives next year !!
Lots of great options to book resorts on points! :)
St. Regis never disappoints
Lol Mandy was like film if you want I’m enjoying the food regardless.
What are you recording on?? I can't tell if its on a tripod or has a badass stabilizer! Place looks beautiful too :)
Hey loved your video, what dates did you travel on ? We're planning to head there this October.
November. October should be fine; hit or miss with rain.
Hi! Great video! We are flying for honeymoon to Maldives 1-9 December 2019 to Dreamland resort on Hirundhoo island (north-east from Male). How was the weather?
Can you book on points from a CSP or similar and get upgrades just by showing a card like Amex Platinum, or do you need to book on a Amex Platinum? New to this...
I would love to see a points to video on this.
Sebby, what gimbal are you using?
Please talk more about how to book this with points. Thank you
Yeah I def wanna see the points for this trip
Between the St. Regis and Waldorf Astoria in the Maldives, which would you prefer, and which one gets you better perks if you were a hilton diamond and marriott titanium
I like rooms tours!
Rock it Seb
sebby what kind of camera do you use?
I enjoyed this video. The Maldives is my 2nd place I want no Need to visit before I leave this earth
Hey Sebby what points did you use for this trip …?
You are crushing the Hat!
Hey Sebs, any shortcut to get platinum elite? And we do care about these room tours and travel stuff🔥 that's why we playing the credit card game! Yes! Talk about how much points for the stay also!👍👍👍👍👍#teamsebby
I want details of how you booked this place. It’s on my Bucket List!!!
I would love a points pay by play on how to book!
Great video! Yes I would like to see a video on how you booked this room with points!👍
which card with Priority Pass would be best chances of approval for those w only good credit?
Do a points video for this!
Sebby Flexin 💪😎
Pls provide point info. Thanks so much..!!
We almost witnessed DJ #AskSebby on the Ones and Twos towards the end of the “video.”
Yes make a video on how you booked it, did you get that upgrade for free? What about the sea plane was it $500?
Thoughts on AmEx shut downs? To be worried or not?
how did you get platinum at marriot?
“Mess up the room... take a nap after, let’s see how things go”... yeah buddy!!! Welcome to the champagne room!!
Thought you were gonna book a Hyatt, but you went the Marriott route, would you kindly explain why/how?
What was your strategy to get to Platinum Elite?
Can you tell me how much it cost for the transfer from the airport to the hotel and what is the best way to book it?? Would really appreciate it thank you.
0:25 God I love overcast.
Definitely need more videos showing us actual travel. All these channels say they’re about teaching you to gain/use points but never show the fruit of that work. Most of these channels now come down to comparing Amex vs Chase every week.
I watched 1:47 over and over again!!
How are you Plat Elite?
Which was better - Waldorf Astoria or St Regis?
The music A1
Like it .
Travel Free With Points | Maldives
A Series idea!! 😄🙌
Love Maldives and the hat try the black strip. Other than that lets talk about points how much did it cost.
We were at St Regis Maldives: 10/14/19-10/19/19 and stayed in OWV #504. The sandals and hat were complimentary, but the beach bag was $49. Please do points breakdown video and videos of their amazing Buffett and a la carte breakfast and the world class spa with steam room, very nice sauna, and the blue hole experience that was rated best in world.
Transportation from the airport to The properties are really really expensive what option did you choose and how much did it cost?
Just as an example I was quoted $ 1,724 round trip transfer for 2 people from Male airport to Waldorf Astoria Maldives . Conrad is less expensive but not cheap by any means $1,180 for 2 people round trip transfer . Not sure if anyone has different ways around this .
There's no (economic) way around this from my research. You can charter your own boat but prices seemed equally pricey.
We used points for the resorts but we're eating the boat/seaplane fees. Breakfast would be another one but it can be dodged with status.
I’ll be there in 10 days !!
Video on how to get this with points!
Great 🙄.....another item to add for the bucket list.
FLEXIN!
Points please and keep up the great work!!!
What?! 1:47 how you did you did that?
More room tours my guy.
Rock that hat, Sebby!
😎🏖️
I have a lot of spending coming up, can you please recommend the cards with the most sign up rewards right now?
Can you fill this out? I'm backlogged but will get to it within a week: www.asksebby.com/free-card-consultation
"I just don't want to get you guys wet if i don't need to..." Reminds me of college XD
But how many points was it
Prices are usually higher on the Amex booking website $10 or more. Even when you use points for these vacations, you still had to spend a fortune to accumulate enough points to pay for them. Anyways enjoy!
Intro bonuses offer outsized value. Most people hit bonuses by paying rent/tuition/business expenses (i.e., Plastiq).
I'm probably heading back to the Maldives in a year or so via points (Conrad, Hyatt, JW/Ritz this time).
Zero reason to book on the "Amex booking website" since this is a terrible use of points. General best use is transfer partners (i.e., Virgin Atlantic via 30% promo for ANA First class).
99% of the time, it makes zero sense to transfer Amex MR to Bonvoy; maybe top off?
The amount of time I've went to the other channels looking for new content is absolutely depressing 😕
We like a lot :)
Wait, did you leave a camera outside on the table... Why for?
