Have you guys seen the flash sale? Oh look, the new WA Ithaafushi is in the flash sale.....but wait.....it's not accepting reservations.
"This hotel will soon be joining the Hilton Portfolio of Brands but is not yet accepting reservations. It is scheduled to open in March 2019."
Don't you just love Hilton.....

It is indeed. You never know, they were probably doing it on purpose to promote the property.

Any update on transfer costs? I suspect yacht transfer, instead of speedboat, is as expensive as seaplane transfer.

I've booked the Conrad for next November but will be interested to see some reviews of this place once it opens. Nice to have other Hilton options in the area.

Appears to have one on Google Earth. Will probably have to wait until it opens and first snorkeler reports to know how it compares.

I just received a word back from the hotels' team that they have again postponed the date when the online information regarding booking is going to be available, instead of Med-December, it's now moved to Mid-January 2019, so another 1 month of delay. I hope that won't affect the opening date.

Can you please share their e-mail address? I could not find it on the property's webpage.
