Same here OP. Do you lose any of the “magic” because it’s so close to Male and the airport?

Def do the park hyatt, journey to get there but worth it

@EY1 - is the proximity to Male an issue? I am reading conflicting accounts.
@A1 - no Hyatt points/status unfortunately.

Do folks have trusted/valuable resources for researching luxury family travel with young kids? I don’t care the cost, I want to know what is most convenient and nice for my family. Feel like generally most resources are geared to either a) families on a budget (I don’t care which hotel is best bang for buck w/mid breakfast) or b) couples / adults only travelers. Do folks just stick to true five star hotel concierges for help? Do folks just book luxury tours like A&K? How do folks research?

Hello Fishes,

I have got my L2 Dependent Visa stamped for the US through the Wife's organization and she has booked the tickets for the both of us in the next weekend.

I am worried because of the time crunch and will be glad to hear some points on this.
