You can make this dream a reality with the power of points and miles. Pam had Bora Bora at the top of her travel bucket list, her dream was to stay at the Conrad Bora Bora, a luxurious hotel known for its exceptional reputation. To make this dream a reality, Pam started collecting Hilton points by getting American Express Hilton cards. Alex shared Pam's dream of staying at the Conrad Bora Bora or the Conrad Maldives. Both the Conrad Bora Bora and the Conrad Maldives are highly sought-after properties, considered bucket list destinations for luxury travelers.

The crystal-clear waters and lush greenery were enough to take our breath away, but the adventures and spa experiences we had is really what made the trip so incredible.
