I enjoy your vlogs! Keep doing them...bc it's one thing to just talk about credit cards and travel benefits, but it's great that you show people real life examples!!!
For $1300 a night, I would expect resort privileges to be included, parking too. It's highway robbery to charge $40 a night for parking, the same for resort privileges. And it sounds like the hotel price gouges for food, also. I think I'll stick with Hampton Inn by Hilton. I wasn't very impressed with the $1300 room. At the Hampton, you get a complimentary breakfast bar each morning. Further, at Embassy Suites, you get a complimentary breakfast buffet complete with a made-to-order omelet! It just seems the mid-range hotels are a much better value.
Agreed. I think their target market is the "I don't care about money" type. My motivation with cards is to stay at places I wouldn't otherwise pay for, so this kind of works out (and hopefully saves other people money/points). JW Marriot has been a sweet spot for me.
Such a bad day to pick...Laguna Niguel is the one of most beautiful and expensive city in Orange County. If you’re going again, visit Thousands steps beach and Mission San Juan Capistrano. The room with beach view is the best!
I love you guys !!!!! If I didn't know better, I would say"Your Rich" !!!!! The Hotel kinda reminded of the Shining a little but, other than that Awesome !!!!! I Love Sebby in his bathrobe on the bed. Mandy is Amazing
Noz Tradamus ft lauderdale??? Idk if it's because I'm a Floridian but just find something that's more bang for your buck because the beach is everywhere here. A drive/Uber/lyft to the beach quick.
I understand. Don't know exactly what kind of trip you're looking for but east coast Florida has more life and people and west coast Florida has better beaches. Ft Lauderdale is a nice alternative to Miami I just don't want you to get ripped off by some of the places by the beach when there are other options you can consider. But if it's Ritz, Ft Lauderdale to Biscayne is great although Bal Harbour tends to be pricier.
Which Tier 4 locations? In no particular preference, Barcelona (has Enoteca, a 2-star Michelin establishment: www.ritzcarlton.com/en/hotels/spain/barcelona/dining/enoteca) Kapalua Lake Tahoe Okinawa Out of any R-C location, regardless of Tier? The HK (Tier 5) one hands down, as it is the tallest hotel in the world. Unfortunately it may be quite some time before I can make much utility of the Visa Infinite airfare portal...

Great filming and editing. I see a couple foodies, and it's making me hungry!
1:00 "Sebb Curry with the shot boy! 360 with the card swipe!"
Love the background music !!! (how did you get the aerial views ?)
Wow fog coming off the pool! Never saw that before! Nice video!
Thanks for the video! Did you use a camera stabilizer? The flow is so smooth!
Sebby with that wet lefty jumper!
Great way to Utilize your points!!! Great episode at the Famous Ritz Carlton Laguna Niguel.
looked good. Keep posting videos.....i've learned a ton👊
awesome video! I thought i was watching a Casey Neistat vlog at first in the beginning with all the drone shots!

I'll check it out next time I'm down there :)
Thanks for letting me know about the $80 hidden fees. Mandy seemed to be insightful too even if the ducks spooked her. Lol
They’re not hidden fees, on the Marriott website it states their resort fee and parking fee for every hotel (if applicable)
Nice video, but this whole property seemed lackluster. Especially with the parking and resort fees.
Half Moon Bay might be a better pick :)
Aight, Sebby! With the left handed shot! Please review Discover It Chrome
I enjoy your travel videos thanks
We will be staying there next month. Family of 5 traveling with kids. Any babysitting services available in the resort? Thank you
Your videos are so entertaining and adorable I love seeing you two.. makes me want to meet you in person LOL😍☺
How much, in your opinion, do you (cash) value a night there (w/o upgrade).
I love you guys !!!!! If I didn't know better, I would say"Your Rich" !!!!! The Hotel kinda reminded of the Shining a little but, other than that Awesome !!!!! I Love Sebby in his bathrobe on the bed. Mandy is Amazing
I also thought the rubber duckies were cute!!
What was the burger place you guys tried. I believe the concierge said something like Shwag?
Shwack: www.yelp.com/biz/shwack-beach-grill-dana-point
Amazing burgers under $10 and delicious wedge fries! ~5 min drive from the Ritz.
Awesome and thanks Sebby!
The aerial footage was filmed on a Mavic?
Yes!
Man that looks good! Do you use a gimbal for filming while walking? If so do you have a link to buy it through to help you guys out?
Yep, used a gimbal while walking: amzn.to/2sMsQr3
Thanks for the info man.
Yeah between parking, feeing you to death, and food, not impressed. Definitely going to check out the different Hilton properties.
LOVE IT
And I want one of those stupid rubber duckies LOL
Chuckle...... eating an apple while working out
Saving my 3nights for half moon bay or ft lauderdale even though is tier 3

well, i'm planning domestic flight and already tired of new england, hawaii & orleans.

Sebby be big pimpin
someone eating a burger with a fork👌
Open face burger (no top bun) so you don't have a choice ;)

$1300 a night for the room that you got free BUT $80 a day not counting food? I'll pass but look forward to your next one from LA.
Would rather stay in SF-better fog. :P
This Ritz property now has fake grass, yeah real classy. Even the public park next to it can afford real grass, and parking is only $1/hr at the park.
Are you vibing in the ritz car?
Dana point is pronounced day-na point
Parking fee and Resort fees on top of for $500 a night is a total rip-off
Agreed that resort fees are dumb, especially when there aren't really any real "resort" benefits.
40 for parking wtf
No self-parking either :(
they are probably burnt now 🫡
