Was not able to find any rooms that qualified for Standard Room Awards -- was there a recent update on Hilton's end or are you only able to see the Standard Award rooms and use a FNC as a Diamond status member? Awesome vid btw, been watching AskSebby since I was in college back in like 2018 waiting to finally have the means to do all of this haha
Nice! Glad you're able to travel now :) I'm seeing it on my end. Make sure to use "Flexible Dates" search and set it to 1 night to see the award chart: imgur.com/a/y4nYuBK www.hilton.com/en/hotels/usmksci-conrad-koh-samui/
It may have seen better days as our villa was showing signs of tired. And if you are unlucky, you will be assigned to villa, like us, with obstructed ocean views partially covered by coconut trees. And the beach is not swimmable littered with exposed rocks and boulders that’s why hotel organisms daily snorkeling excursions about 20mins away. Finally, it’s about 45-70mins drive to whatever actions you wanna explore on days out like Lamai Beach, Chaweng or airport.
@SebbyFung Flights & maybe hotel a bit w/transferrable currencies later. Just hit Delta Diamond w/Biz Reserve. I'm now starting to play in AmEx MR & Chase UR.
Same. US hotels are stingy about upgrades or too many people have status. Better luck with international and Asia for the suite upgrades and much better service.
Just to clarify, you want her to do the voiceovers and tours on the "Sebby Fung" channel, instead of her own channel? I guess I'm confused by the purpose. "I'd rather watch her" / "I don't like you" = totally fine, but that's why she has her own channel with the same trips and her take / opinions of the property: th-cam.com/video/cm3Ff8niR-E/w-d-xo.html
I end up doing a lot of re-takes ("let's re-start the room tour from here") which can 100% be frustrating especially when we've already been filming for a few hours :)
Thanks for the recap on how to book for award stays so us mere commoners can know whats it like to live like Kings

I thought the free night award did not apply to contad koh samui?
Is the pool heated?
"you could fit three people, I don't really know what you're doing but you could" 😂😂
🥥 very nice, and yes - if I had any. Not in the hotel game as of yet.
Team Cash Back? Or focused on flights?

Any plans for the GUCs? :)
🥥Does this change your views about the value of Hilton Diamond status in 🇪🇺 or 🇺🇲?
Same. US hotels are stingy about upgrades or too many people have status. Better luck with international and Asia for the suite upgrades and much better service.
@@SebbyFung 🇯🇵🇰🇷🇨🇳
@@SebbyFung agree. diamond status doesn't amount to a hill of beans in the US but Asian upgrades have been nice.
🥥Maybe Mandy should do the tours n voice over.
You can find that over on the Mandy Roams channel.
@@SebbyFung yea no thank you. Just have her do it here so the videos are better. Thank you.
Or you can stop watching lol

His player 2 never smiled in his videos. But watch hers and she smiles all the time. Just saying. 😂
