I have just begun radiation chemo treatments where 1 day a week I am sitting for 6 hours while receiving treatment. I found your travel blog and now every week you take me on a new spectacular vacation, so to speak. I like that your tours are silent except for The suitable instrumental music together with the sounds nature provides. What a dream job! I only hope one day I too will be fortunate enough to visit one of these magnificent destinations!

[@luxurytravelexpert]

I wish you a full and speedy recovery and all the strength and love you need to battle the disease ❤️

[@Jwingmann]

One of my favorite things to do is drink my coffee and watch one of these in the morning. Very relaxing and helps me stay motivated to visit some of these beautiful places.

何度も何度も訪れたくなるソネバフシ鳥の声に癒されレストランへ朝食を食べに自転車を走らせる1日の始まり全てが素晴らしい食材で美味しい､お腹一杯食べたいのを少し我慢してダイビングへGO・・・ 桟橋に戻り自転車を走らせレストランへアイスクリームを食べに行く「無料です」チョコも有りお昼はこれで十分😊 コテージに戻りお昼寝タイム 午後は2本目のダイビングへGO コテージに戻りシャワータイム まったりしてディナータイムです 夢のようなリゾートタイムです。

Thank you, really well filmed. Without words only nice music and i liked that there was the real sound too in the background. 👍 !!!

This guy is awesome. Subscribed. He documents it as if you are truly there, and takes time panning slowly so you don't miss any detail. I feel like I am going on vacation with him.

Well than you. As a teacher I could never afford to take these types of vacations, so I appreciate what you do.

Ca fait plaisir d revoir ce sable blanc, cete mer turquoise et cette magnifique architecture villa/piscine ( 31.40 à 32.20 ) 37.08 une belle atmosphère, je trouve. On a l'impression d'être chez soi, ce sont des lieux qu'on a envie de s'approprier Et cette image et les suivantes ( 41.28 à 41.43 ) on voudrait être là-bas tout de suite; et celle-là aussi : 46.49 !

I love the whole no shoes policy, it seems like it would be very freeing and allow you to experience every facet of the island possible. I’m only 18 but I plan to work hard & smart so I’m able to travel the world some day, which is my dream

[@missdoglover1644]

Kaliela Smith with such a great attitude you will get there 👍🏻😄

[@Corrosionchemist]

Charles Laurie-Magyar Yeah, the “no shoes” policy is silly especially when most guests need to protect the soles of their feet from being cut by sharp objects such as shells, glass, metal fragments, assorted insects, etc.

[@lkpatel7916]

+Charles Laurie-Magyar jfcfikgcv

[@Pilot-ud3yj]

Its not a policy. Its just a romantic notion that a lot of Maldives resorts thrust upon guests. Usually its No Shoes, No News but then you arrive only to find guests with heads buried in mobile phones everywhere there is free wifi.

[@chattimac2476]

Kaliela Smith it should be option :) some people have sensitive senses on their skin

I found you by accident a couple of weeks ago and since the first one I watched I’ve been hooked, love being able to go to these places with you ( for real would be better) what is funny is that when it becomes breakfast time I always see if you have a eggs Benedict and today to find out it’s one of your favourite ( mine too). I have always wanted to go the the Maldives and it definitely on my bucket list.

[@bluefive1727]

Terrific video! Absolutely gorgeous place and I hope to get there some day. A couple of things though: I laughed a bit at the 'lagoon-style pool' as there is an actual real beautiful lagoon just yards away. I certainly wouldn't worry about not having my own plunge pool. Also, there's a big accent on being eco-friendly and natural but where is the wildlife? Meaning no spiders and webs, insects etc? Not even a speck of dust to be seen. Amazing!

[@danis.8620]

"The Luxury Travel Expert" I have watched your videos on the Maldives and Seychelles and am in complete awe. I had no idea there is world of beauty like that out there!

It is a way to help local fruit gardeners In my country down south We have suffered decline of agricultural products prices for more than a decade I wish to establish a social enterprize a small ecolodge in my town Maybe a miniature of this I will make purchase of seasonal local fruits we have to serve my clients Otherwise they go to waste Because when the price is too low People do not want to be pressed down and some fruit gardeners refuse to sell and leave it to rot away. My parents do this too.

[@AliveWithPassion]

Beautifully filmed vlog! This resort is too crowded for my taste. Soneva Jani is by far much more exclusive and less crowded. This resort appears to be for the less affluent/wealthy and “common folk”, just for people to say they’ve been to the Maldives. No hate, just letting you know that their other resort, Soneva Jani, is above and beyond and is one you should all experience.

[@giannasottile4693]

Rooms start at 1.5k a night. I’m pretty sure only the top 3% can visit the Maldives without saying that their finances were not even the littlest bit effected.
