wow D i have no idea how you do that many dooyoos every day! I have done about 4 today and I am seriously running low on ideas and they have taken me ages!! I am on £31 though I think so I just need to keep on going!! hoping to hit the £50 by xmas, do you think that is possible?

Tete_en_l'Air

You did better than me! Just about lost the will to live on BP there, but was worth it in the end! Goodnight all x

Definately possible to hit £50 by Christmas. I earn a £20 voucher per account every 7-10 days, £19 is only about 20 reviews if you do a load of rates too, people are pretty good at returning the favour!

Tete_en_l'Air

Yeah if you rate plenty I'd say you make about £1 per review. I still have £20 to go to reach my 2010 £100 target Tink, shall we have a mini challenge??

We got a fair few quotes last night and having read some more reviews I'm uncertain if I want the fully over water villas in Meeru, or the half on beach half in sea ones. The over water ones are beautiful, but apparently the current out there is really strong and I'm not overly confident in strong water, and also they can be very noisy with the sea against the legs at night. The half beach half sea ones are slightly smaller and not as private, but the beach is right there, they're £1000 cheaper, and the water isn't as strong. Don't know what we want!

Personally I think I'd like the access to the beach - with the others are you just sort of marooned on them? how do you get back to land?

I see the house deposit poking its nose back into things?

With the over water villas its sort of a hut at the end of a permenant walkway with a big veranda over the sea, and steps down into the sea. With the half water villas its built on land but the sea comes under the villa when its high tide.

I like the look of the half in the water villa myself.

I don't know where the island is, but I would certainly recommend paying extra to take a seaplane transfer if you have the option rather than getting a boat. Ex and I went to Kuredu years ago and the sea plane was awesome - and we arrived, had a cocktail, freshened up and were relaxing for HOURS before the boat transfer people arrived, seasick as it got a bit rough, sunburned, thirsty as it ran out of water and late....for no real reasons.

If you like swimming/snorkelling/diving, lazing around, the Maldives are perfect

HOW BIG was that picture? Hehe! I still like the look of the half water one, not sure why really.

Dinah93

Lol we've actually specifically picked a resort close enough for only a half hour speedboat and no seaplane, I hate flying with a passion, and I really don't think I could get on a seaplane!

We both love snorkelling, and we've gone for a bigger island as there are loads and loads of trips to see local inhabited islands, into male, out to the reefs and so on so we have the option for things to do if we want them.

I think I am leaning towards the half water one myself, but like you Tete I don't know why! CMD, where did you stay in Dubai? We're leaning towards the Westin Mina Seyahi.
