Do you know if the bulkhead seats in business have the same set up as any business class seat ie specifically the viewing screen also part of the cubicle and not on the bulkhead wall? Would you recommend the bulkhead in business on this plane ?
I'm here mainly so Sebby doesn't sleep on the couch lol. Jk. But awesome video!! Would you consider this resort family friendly? I have a 7 month old baby girl 🙏🏻.
Haha, thanks! Yes, very family friendly. Tons of families having reunions or annual trips.
🌴 will be going to the Grand Hyatt Kauai in November. Can’t wait!
🌊 the gyros 🥙 looked really good
OMG I stayed at the Hyatt Maui on a United package vacation forty years ago and the price for a week long stay was about $900 per person, double occupancy! This didn't include airfare (I don't think) but it did include a car! I remember the hotel grounds being beautiful and a can of Coke was six or eight dollars (I almost fell over). PS: Women get lei'd...men don't
When did you go during the Bora Bora series? Weather doesn’t look great. I know you said it was dry season but which month?
🌴for algo, great seeing the holiday videos!
We’ve stayed at the Hyatt many times over the years. It’s definitely expensive but you already know that beforehand. It’s an amazing resort just really pricey.
We ended up using points (35,000 Hyatt) - not cheap, but pretty good value since retail was $1,000+
I heard that there are chickens everywhere is that true ?
Yes! So cute 🐤🐥
Nice comprehensive video. Thanks for sharing fam 👌🏿
I'm loving all these videos about your trips Mandy/Sebby! I enjoy the credit card optimization side too, but travel experiences are the reason I do it in the first place, so thanks for sharing more of those types of videos!
Yay! Thank you for watching! :)
🌴Do you recommend Kauai for people who are not very outdoorsy? (No helicopter rides or hikes!) I’ve been to Oahu twice and considering going again but Kauai looks nice. Also, those are the best welcome snacks I’ve seen. Hope you enjoyed them!
Yep! Tons of good resorts as well :) If anything, the Hyatt had a ton of families just relaxing.
Thanks for this video, when was it filmed? Was the Club Lounge busy for your trip? I've seen some conflicting reports on FT. I'm going to Kauai in a couple of weeks but ended up skipping out on the GH for this trip. I've got some pre-pre deval Vacasa bookings at the 15k per $500 cap but will likely hit the GH on my next visit to the island.
We went ~ 2 weeks ago. The Club was super busy the first 2 days since it was a weekend, but emptied out during the weekdays.
When did you guys ? We were there two weeks ago and as discoverists not offered any room upgrade. I had to ask and ended up paying $150/night to upgrade from a parking lot view to a ocean view.
We were there almost 2 weeks ago as well. We have Globalist status though. We were offered an upgrade to the Ocean View Suite for $350/night (but passed on it).
That was amazing. Adding it to the list of places to visit. 🦀🦀
Thank you for sharing your Grand Hyatt Kauai visit. It brought back memories on my visit there thirty years ago. Glad to see Hyatt has kept this property very beautiful. 🤙😊
🤙🤙🤙
Great video! Loved your Koh Samui videos as well... I love watching you and Sebby!
Thank you!! :)
🍌🌭☕

We stayed at the Grand Hyatt Kauai for our honeymoon for 5 nights with points (12 nights total across the islands, all with points!). We really enjoyed it, though it was October 2021 so some of the amenities were reduced due to COVID, but it was still worth it! It's also in a great location to explore the southern part of Kauai, so it was a great mix of having stuff to do at the hotel/resort and also being able to leave the hotel easily to explore.
Nice! Which other islands did you visit?
@@MandyRoams The Big Island (Kona and Hilo sides) and Oahu/Waikiki. Lots of cheap rates in Waikiki that allowed us to extend our stay too.
Big Island is definitely on the list for future stays :)
My little piglet friend…..😂
🐷
We were just there. It’s so nice!
Loved our stay there!
🥥 Another great review. Going to Thailand in March I may add this to my list. Interested in what else you did while in town.
Lots of good water excursions we didn't do this time around.
Do you two prefer Marriot or Hyatt in general for your travels? My player 2 and I want to consolidate instead of spreading out our points but we are not sure which program to commit to.
Hyatt overall quality is better imo, easier to get more points (chase UR), and of course more points i mean relative point value not absolute number of points; however the downside is their footprint, some places I go there aren't any good hyatt point redemption options. Status wise it's relatively easier to get globalist compared to marriott's ambassador. Hyatt is my vote.
It's a mix of both. Hyatt is usually better value with the transfer and redemption rates. The experience is much better if you have Globalist status. For Marriott, JW Marriott is our sweet spot.
First. 😀
🙌
When was this filmed???
How deep is the private pool? I am just thinking whether to bring float. 😅😅
I’m surprised that they charge to access their showers. Thank you for sharing
🍾 did you find this 8a seat to be noisy, since its so close to the galley?
Definitely can be noisier. If you're optimizing for sleep, middle is your best bet :)
Im flying Delta One in December. Thank you for the video
Enjoy! :)
🦀🍹
🦀 How long ago was this stay? We just got back from the Conrad KS and a lot has changed, unfortunately not for the better. The library is closed, and lots of rooms are in need of dire repairs
Insane upgrade. Your villa would be great for a family trip. Large enough to avoid others when you need a break. 😂
That residence was amazing! Great upgrade.
Seat number?
Nice video! How much does the ferry cost with room?
Only breakfast?
Only one meal?
Yup, the downside of taking a red eye flight.
@@MandyRoams I thought I was missing out! Long haul flights should offer a full meal
We were there in January
Nice! How'd you like it?
For the algo.
Thanks :)
Thanks for the great video. Planning to stay here in the fall. What time is the hotel's happy hour for bonvoy member? Is it just light bites and drinks for members everday?
🦀
🦀🦀🦀
Amazing upgrade, I enjoy it every time you guys make fun of each other
Thanks for watching! 😛
🦀 My wife and I are going in March! It looks stellar. Have you guys been to Phuket? If so, any hotel recommendations?
Nice! Loved the Conrad. Haven't been to any major hotel chains in Phuket, but I heard the W over there was great.
wow, that was the most well organized video about meteora, great job, congrats !
Glad it helped! :)
What a great review. Thanks for producing this video.
🦄 trying to plan a honeymoon and want to also utilize points. Do you have a destination you would reccommend? I’m not sure i’d be able to make Bora Bora happen since it will be mid June 2025
🐟 Love it. Can't wait to go next year for my 50th!
I'm going back to the Hilton on Moorea for my 50th in January! Check that one out too. It is amazing. We did it for our honeymoon. I'm sure you cant go wrong with either.
