Apparently it's at 70% occupancy but it often feels like we are the only ones here. The food, service and accommodation are truly outstanding. I now have my list of my 3 favourite places in the world: 1. Wildflower Lodge Hotel, Shimla, India 2. Six Senses, Laamu, Maldives 3. Inishowen Peninsula, Co Donegal, Ireland Oh, and, of course, home with Kim and our dogs! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing I especially remember (not that where we were was anything like as gorgeous) is that you didn't need to really go far into the water to see lots of fish; just paddling at the edge there were lots of little chaps to look at, so I'm sure snorkelling straight from your overwater home must be lovely. And those dishes beat anything on any cruise I have been on. Just wow. Lola 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emtbsam Posted August 22, 2023 #18162 Share Posted August 22, 2023 I like the idea of favorite places in the world. I will have to give some thought to that, but one thing is for sure, mine will all involve a view of water. Anyone else care to name theirs? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let’s not forget: what special treatment will you receive because you booked a top suite, why don’t they carry a wider selection of bourbon and how much to tip! 😁 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Tothesunset Posted August 22, 2023 #18164 Share Posted August 22, 2023 The lack of hierarchy amongst the guests is clear. We are in the least expensive OWV (which is a relative term, of course) yet those at all levels receive the same high levels of service. SS could learn a lot from the effortless efficiency of the staff here. Our butler is unreal - he appears as if from nowhere when we even think we might want something. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad you're getting such amazing service. As long as the cheapest OWV isn't an UWV instead! If your butler is truly a mind reader perhaps a tin-foil hat is a good idea for the packing list? 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare drron29 Posted August 23, 2023 #18167 Share Posted August 23, 2023 A truck loaded with thousands of copies of Roget's Thesaurus crashed yesterday losing its entire load.
