So, has anyone ever been here in August? We are loving it so much we are thinking of visiting with the kiddos...but due to various schedule conflicts, we really can only come in August. Seems like it could be possible that it would rain the entire time?

There is only one more island with villas. I can post that map later on as well.

It's possible, but it only rained one morning when we were there for a week in August.

Thanks for the rates. If those are the only quotes you got it's no surprise that the rates are so high. Everything is booked solid except for the one BS and a few DBVs.

I would obviously like the nicer rooms, but it's not worth that much to me.

Actually that's what we do every visit. A fitting final dinner at Rangali. Was the Champagne & Lobster dinner cancelled due to the weather?

Muraka aerial photos

Anyone have any recent aerial photos of the Muraka? I am wondering exactly where it is located. We are heading to Rangali in 2 weeks. Thanks.

I posted some pics up-thread - around Oct, 2. It is located off the middle of the bridge to the staff island, in sight of the villas on the 200 (reef) side on Rangalifinolhu (main) island.

Edit: see post #3874
