Might be worth getting in touch with them, perhaps @CL9 could respond to them with this link and ask?
Also, where do you see the restaurant price list on the hotel website? I looked through it but I can't find anything.

Has anyone been successful in doing a points transfer larger than 100K into anothers account to book an award stay? I see the T&C say this is still possible and have confirmed on marriott Twitter but haven't been able to get an agent to do so yet. They say either the system is down, no longer exists, or no longer is allowed. Would appreciate the guidance

Assuming that it was actually meant to be on the list, I think it's more likely that they've just overlooked it and it will be gone the moment anyone notices it.

Award stay + free breakfast, one can keep costs down with pizzas every night to about 100USD per day.
With 20% off, it encourages me to spend more on food at the property

If anyone is looking for current menus, pm me your email address and I can send them. If someone wants to host them to update the wiki, I'll send them along.

But it seems, since the merge it has been take off and now the domain is forwarded to Marriott.
And the point with the 20% discount. It seems nobody knows the real new rules right now, even the own employees and hotel manager.
Because I ask for it and they say no, I would not get.

Can anyone comment on how easy/hard it is to go to other hotels in the Maldives? I currently have 3 award nights reserved but of points delays and all this mess, I can't get it to be 5 nights. I'm now thinking to stay at another cheaper hotel on an island using a cash rate for say another 3 nights. I'm assuming I'll have to still pay the boat transfer fee, and head back to MLE..and from there...take another boat or airplane to another island. Anyone else do this? Perhaps they can recommend a really good cheap cash rate hotel.

Also StR is too far to reach by boat, so seaplane is your only option at $650 pp.

Am thinking I should contact Marriott to see if I can extend to 5 on the 85k rate; do you think it's too risky?
