看到篇老外大神写的文章，基本确认马代华尔道夫的往返快艇费高达$862.40，比马代康莱德的水飞还贵一半，肝疼~~~
老外认为华尔道夫必定在各方面都很贵，两个人吃顿饭不点喝的预计在200~300美元之间。。。我觉得他低估了，因为马代康莱德想吃饱也得这个价，华尔道夫必定只高不低。。。纠结要不要取消订单
One of the things that’s convenient about the Waldorf Astoria Maldives is that it can be reached by speedboat from Male Airport, so you don’t have to take a connecting flight, which sure is convenient.
Initially Hilton’s website suggested that the roundtrip transfer cost $370 plus a 23.2% tax and service charge. As it turns out, that was a mistake, and the hotel is actually charging $350 one-way plus a 23.2% tax and service charge for transfers between the airport and hotel.
So a roundtrip boat transfer for the 30 minute ride will cost $862.40. WOW.
It’s pretty amazing that a roundtrip boat transfer costs more than what other hotels charge for a combination of flights and boat transfers.
In fairness, this pricing isn’t that far off from what other hotels are charging. The One & Only Reethi Rah charges $300++ for boat transfers in each direction, and that hotel is a similar distance. So this is more, but not that much more.
I still think it’s reasonable to dispute the cost if you were quoted $370++ roundtrip at the time of booking.
