A $46,000 Luxury Maldives Vacation for only $1,818
Mention the Maldives and images of pristine turquoise blue waters come to mind. Overwater bungalows with direct jump-in access to the water and romantic sunsets are commonplace in this island paradise. A Maldives vacation can be had on the cheap, but it’s definitely not the easiest to achieve.

While it’s on almost everyone’s wish list, getting there can be a challenge. Flights are often ridiculously expensive and once you DO get to the islands, a barrage of expensive hotels with overpriced meals await. Never mind the flight distance involved, those expensive factors are enough to turn some people off and have them looking for cheaper destinations.

Getting to paradise and back doesn’t have to cost a fortune. We booked a ridiculous, normally unattainable luxury vacation valued at almost $46,000 for a grand total of $1,818… for two people!
Considering that’s usually the price of a regular coach class ticket to the Maldives, that’s one heck of a steal.
In the series of posts to follow, we’re going to walk you through all the experiences that we enjoyed on this trip. While most people would consider this once-in-a-lifetime, with just a little legwork and dedication you can have a luxury getaway to make Instagram followers drool with envy.

I find it highly misleading, that you are not explaining where did that 880 000 miles and points (supposedly FREE) come from? What did you have to do to get them? To stay in hotels as PAID stays? to SPEND 50K USD on credit cards? Pimp them to your readers so you get referral cut?

I find it highly disturbing that you haven’t read any of our other blog posts that teach our wonderful readers how to earn miles and points, specifically the one titled How We’ve Earned 1,744,651 miles… start there before you judge. https://nomascoach.boardingarea.com/travel/how-weve-earned-1744651-points-this-year/ Also, I’ll make sure to take the $3.65 I make off of this post and use it to buy a Cafe Latte to power myself with all the energy needed to continue to write posts you won’t read before you drop your mightier than thou judgement on others.
