OK, a new updated list based on input here and on a couple other threads.
Big North American Resorts
Hilton Los Cabos
Hilton Waikoloa Village
Waldorf Astoria Grand Wailea
Exotic Destinations
Hilton Moorea
Conrad Koh Samui
Hilton Phuket
Hilton Mauritius
Hilton Seychelles Northolme/Hilton Seychelles Labriz
All-Inclusives
Hilton Papagayo Costa Rica
Hilton Rose Hall Jamaica
Removed from Consideration
Hilton Hawaiian Village - too urban and family oriented
Hilton Bora Bora Nui - Hilton Moorea a better option, extra plane ride, not as good snorkeling/island amenities
Conrad Bali - Conrad Koh Samui a better option
Waldorf Astoria/Conrad/Hilton Maldives - WA no longer a HH soon, Maldives has no *A service AND there's an extra flight to get to hotel island
Any other thoughts? I'v gotten some great input so far, but would love to hear more, especially about some of the properties that haven't had any comments.
I'm going to move on to trying to coordinate *A service soon to factor that into the decision.
