    Being 70 years old, I will never see all these places, as I am on a fixed income. So these videos allow me to take numerous mental vacations. I do travel to Turkey to visit my son and my Turkish daughter in law. I wish my favorite “Luxury Travel Expert” would visit some of the tropical paradises in Turkey. I never knew they had such beautiful resorts there. We will be visiting Antalya. However, I would prefer visiting a resort area less crowded. Also a question I want to ask the “Luxury Travel Expert”? If you only had one place to pick to live, where would you go? Thank you so much for these beautiful videos. I share your videos all the time with my friends. Now they are subscribers, and take many mental vacations!

I have wanted to visit Cape Town, but at my age, Turkey is far enough. Have you ever been to Istanbul? Now that’s an amazing City! We loved it. Thank you again for such fabulous videos. Thank you also for over an hours worth. I even like seeing inside the closets, bathrooms etc. so beautiful! Check out Bodrum or Izmir in Turkey! Antalya too, but too crowded for me!

      I wonder where the dirty water from the bathroom and from the toilet in these houses is poured? Or is there no bathroom and toilet there? I don't see any pipes coming out of the houses. And the water in the sea is salty, I don't believe they don't bathe with plain water after swimming in the sea. Where do they pee and shit? Where is the soapy water from the bathroom poured? I don't see any pipes. I don't see any wires either. I don't care about solar panels either. So there is no electricity in these houses.

      The Russians are not the same society as the Western ones - this is quite obvious to the inhabitants of Central and Eastern Europe, but few in the West are aware of it. Moscow today is driven by a primitive nationalism, and the failure of the West to see this has brought Europe to the brink of a great war.
      It would probably be different if, after the collapse of the Soviet empire, an era of eternal peace had not been proclaimed and the West had not been mentally demobilized. Especially since the situation has clearly gone in the wrong direction since Putin took power. Of course, you might not have noticed it at first, but the West had 20 years to understand what Putin's real goal was. He himself did not hide it. Perhaps if we had better assimilated the historical memory of Hitler, the process of sobering up would not be so painful. In the West, however, there was a conviction that a second Hitler could not happen again. Another mistake, another spell of reality.

    I am at a loss for words for this video. Never mind the master-class presentation better than any advertisement, this place is almost otherworldly. The fact that places like this exist and a human can actually go to them and spend as much time as they want simply beggars belief. You can ride around, eat amazing food, or just swim in the ocean to your heart's content. This place is firmly #1 on my bucket list. Thank you for showing us this little slice of Eden!

    This is really one of the top resorts. Luckily, there are also budget options for everyone in the Maldives. You can stay on local islands from 50 USD per night and will have the same weather, same ocean as anywhere else in the Maldives. We stayed with our two kids in Omadhoo and Feridhoo and had a great time.

    Hi XS. The images you create using mainly a ‘simple’ iPhone are stunning…the choice of music is top and the script you follow throughout the movie showing us this amazing resort is the best I have seen so far for Jani.
    Sonu & Eva can be proud of their ambassador!
    And how nice to see the family again after all these years, you are all lucky to have each other, the children have become serious teenagers ;-)
    I still favour Fushi over Jani because of the vegetation and the jungle feel, but it has been a real treat spending almost 2 hours enjoying this video.

    I just returned from a trip to Maldives. I flew Emirate’s business class and the round-trip ticket for me alone was just $4700 with added insurance that brought the ticket price to $5500 (including tax and business class lounge in JFK & DUBAI).
    When people think of Maldives, Soneva Fushi and Soneva Jani is what they imagine in their mind because those are the photos and videos that they’ve seen on Facebook and Instagram.
    The beaches in the Maldives are virtually all the same: you have white sand, clear water and marine life everywhere that you can record videos and pictures of.
    The real difference between the resorts is the level of service and the variety of food.
    Soneva Fushi and Soneva Jani cost between $1000 and $20,000 per night depending on the size of your villa.
    There are some resorts that are less expensive but these two are top-tier in Maldives.
    Perhaps even in the world - I’ve been to Seychelles but I haven’t been to Bora-Bora yet.
    I would say the smartest thing for couples to do is to come here for the weekend and just stay a night or two unless they get a really good rate and want to spend a longer time here. Once you’ve stayed here for a weekend you may start to get bored. You can return to Male and stay in a regular hotel while exploring the city.

    Extraordinary & Magnificent combined do not fully comprehend the elegance, spirit and exclusiveness captured here.

When my notification appeared of a 1:50 hour/minutes video I knew it would not be enough for him to capture the most stunning resort on Earth. He's biased and with good reason. There is no other place on the planet like this. For the LTE gifting his beautiful family and friends after a two-year pandemic is truly one of a kind. Only the LTE can bring a place where you can fully unplug and just be a family. Congratulations Dr. Sir !

      I understand innocence, but I'm not talking about that. We live in New Zealand and we have more heart and an open mind than those older emincons in Russia. These are not people. They're red bastards. I am writing because I was very surprised by the regret that you can't be on a paradise island right now. The direction of thinking and feeling the situation is terrible. The very idea of aggression in 21st century Europe is insane. And the performance shows what kind of people live in Russia. I know Russian and I hear what these inhuman monsters say on you tube.

      The Russians are not the same society as the Western ones - this is quite obvious to the inhabitants of Central and Eastern Europe, but few in the West are aware of it. Moscow today is driven by a primitive nationalism, and the failure of the West to see this has brought Europe to the brink of a great war.
      It would probably be different if, after the collapse of the Soviet empire, an era of eternal peace had not been proclaimed and the West had not been mentally demobilized. Especially since the situation has clearly gone in the wrong direction since Putin took power. Of course, you might not have noticed it at first, but the West had 20 years to understand what Putin's real goal was. He himself did not hide it. Perhaps if we had better assimilated the historical memory of Hitler, the process of sobering up would not be so painful. In the West, however, there was a conviction that a second Hitler could not happen again. Another mistake, another spell of reality.

    For anyone reading this, I am a world traveler, I have stayed at many of the places this guy has stayed at and then some. But Soneva is a mediocre hospitality group. I was booked for Soneva Jani and while at another hotel in the Maldives they called to notify I must stay at Soneva Fushi (their other property) instead. Their reasoning made no sense whatsoever, so I had the impression that maybe some very rich guest or celebrity wanted to book last minute so they had to come up with some excuse to kick a commoner like me out of my spot. Anyway I tried to have a good attitude, and certainly Soneva Fushi is not a bad place. However it is not phenomenal by any means: there were literally 50+ construction workers visible all the time, my overwater villa looked directly at a rather ugly commercial island (not something you expect when watching videos like this one), and the butler always tried to pressure us into doing things we didn’t really want to do. Ok, those things are annoying but not the end of the world. However what I found unacceptable was that they made NO attempt and I mean literally NO attempt to remediate the situation - no discount, no free meal, no free excursion, nothing. The hotel manager came up to us at our meal and asked if everything was good and I said not really and before I could explain he walked away LMAO! I want to reiterate that I am grateful to be able to travel like I do, and it feels spoiled to complain about such things, but traveling for 20+ hours and spending many thousands of dollars at a “5 star” resort comes with certain expectations, and I am easy going and have never had even one problem with any of the other 100+ hotels I have stayed at. I could go on, but I just want to give people an honest opinion about this hotel group since I come to this channel to find travel ideas and many others might do the same.

But I did stay at the Four Seasons Maldives (Landaa Giraavaru, they have another one too) while I was there and I liked it more. However Soneva is more of a boutique experience which is why we stayed there, Four Seasons of course is more corporatized, however the overwater room we had at Four Seasons was probably the best room we have ever stayed at in the world and had a better view than Soneva. Soneva had better food. Like I mentioned Soneva is certainly not bad, I think Soneva Jani might be world class. But I do not know because they screwed me and sent me to Sonia Fushi instead lol!
