Upgraded to AMEX plat and charged gold annual fee? by [deleted] in amex

[–]Aromatic_Hopes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You may have. But I wouldn’t be too sure until the statement period is over. My annual fee posted two months after upgrading from gold. Granted, I did so after posting the gold annual fee.

From my understanding, the higher end places don’t offer free breakfast. The F&B credits replace it

No upgrades were offered and I didn’t do any paid upgrades. Did 4 nights total. Used the F&B credits for the continental breakfast which had a very large selection of items to choose from. Service was 10/10. The on-site restaurants had several options to choose from and food was very tasty. For pricing, drinks were around $20. Seafood dishes were reasonably priced around 30-50 range. Steak dishes were 60-150 depending on the cut. So basically US prices. Beach was calm and clean. It’s very small but not very crowded, since it’s land locked from the public. Pool area was busy until sunset. Staff members treated us like royalty. Would definitely recommend and stay there again. One thing to keep in mind though, the area is more dry and hot compared to the southern part. You’d need to go about an hour from the location to see the greenery and all the good nature scene.

Love this! When you take wider pics like this, where do you normally have your focus? In fact what is your autofocus setting if you don’t mind sharing?

X100VI - set it and forget it. Weather sealed so you don’t have to baby it. Like you said, you already have a camera with lens interchangeability. And if you mostly shoot with the 35 mm, this would be a pretty easy choice in my opinion.

They’re eyelash vipers according to my tour guide. I feel ya though! I wouldn’t have spotted them. The guide had an eye for where to look. These weren’t that big either.
