Where: I like mountains, cities and beaches. I would absolutely choose location over the presence of a luxury hotel, but hopefully the stars can align and I can get both with miles for flights. But that takes a lot of work!
Duration: Usually 1 week in the fall, sometimes winter, 2 weeks spring and 3-5 weeks in the summer
Season
Category room/suite: Usually the cheapest
Points or cash or combo? Usually miles for flights and pay for rooms
Is it Aman? Sometimes. Going to Bagh, Kora, Taka, Sara, Walla, Galla, and maybe Jena in the next year.
How often do you invoke high-end luxe travel? Almost never. Fregate has been the only high end place we've gone, but Luacaula is on the radar.
Which leads to: are willing to pay mega bucks? Nope. Don't have the money!
