We plan on doing the shark/ray snorkle. Also, we booked directly with the companies for the pontoon and snorkle instead of going through the resort. They told me that they have contracts with the hotel, so once you get on the resort, you have to pay the higher fee through the resort. The strong dollar also makes both these excursions cheaper to go ahead and lock in now.

On another thought, do you guys think putting destinations / hotels you have traveled to (rewards or no rewards) and experiences in this thread or a new thread would be beneficial. It just seems to have a wealth of travel information here, and I think it would be a nice resource to have.

Bora Bora has changed so much since when I went. The only excursions then were a sunset cruise or getting dropped off on a motu for the day.

frick, you just gave me a flashback to locking my mortgage rate recently just by seeing the word "lock". Traumatic experience

I'd be happy to share the hotels I've stayed at, might be good to do another thread but that could go down quickly if not enough posting so I get doing it in here.

I don't use rewards to pay for about 70-80% of my hotel stays. I find Priceline, VRBO/Air BnB, Agoda or Expedia deals to generally be a better value than burning points.
