And the decor looks more W than the W Maldives as depicted in your pic. Less wooden features, and more vibrant and glitzy. Bet it'd cost a lot more too.Last edited by KeithMEL; 30 March 2011, 04:28 AM.All opinions shared are my own, and are not necessarily those of my employer or any other organisation of which I'm affiliated to.

Originally posted by jhm View PostYou may be right - spg.com comes up with US$825/night prepaid for a Beach Oasis for the same dates. I don't know how much the non-premier InOcean Villa is but there doesn't seem that much difference between that and the W.All opinions shared are my own, and are not necessarily those of my employer or any other organisation of which I'm affiliated to.

30,000 to 35,000 SPG points per night ?!?

As we'll be captive to the hotel's pricing on food and booze (given we'll literally be sitting in the middle of nowhere), we'll probably need to bring along the GDP of a small African nation for incidentals!
