Perks of the job! Zoe Foster Blake beams as she enjoys an idyllic $7000 per-night Maldives work junket with husband …

She’s the author and mum of two who helped husband Hamish Blake celebrate his 36th birthday this week.

And the celebrations continued for Zoe Foster Blake  on Thursday when she shared a series of jealousy inducing snaps of the family’s idyllic Maldives vacation at the swanky Soneva Fushi Resort.

Sharing one photo that showed her beaming in a summery headscarf, on a picturesque shoreline, in the spirit of full disclosure, Zoe revealed that the pre-Christmas getaway was, in fact, a work junket.

‘Probably the worst thing about being a travel writer is being invited to stay at places like Soneva Fushi in the Maldives so you can write about them,’ she captioned the photo.

Zoe continued: ‘Honestly, don;t become a travel writer guys. There are ZERO PERKS.’

As might be expected, the photo was bombarded with a flurry of low-key jealousy from Zoe’s fans with the likes of: ‘What a s***ty job that I’d like to start immediately. Please and thank you.’

 Another chimed in with a similar: ‘I’m not jealous at all pffft.’

A third photo – a simple image of a pier extending out over crystal clear water gave Zoe the opportunity to gush about the destination, despite the family’s less-then-civil departure time.

 ‘One AM departure. Two hundred coffees. Three flights. Four tired humans. Five outta five destination,’she wrote.

Zoe couldn’t get enough of the vistas, sharing another photo that flaunted a picture-perfect beach scene with the sentiment: ‘Life’s pretty cushy when you get to Soneva Fushi.’

While the price of the family villas is certainly nothing to baulk at the resort, which features both villas and private residences, offers some villas at a whopping $40,000 per night.

The villas feature private pools, butler service, iPods pre-loaded with a selection of music and movies, and a luxurious open-air bathroom with bathtub and separate indoor/outdoor shower.

There is also plenty of entertainment for Sonny and Rudy, with the compound featuring a private pool with a waterslide and access to a secluded section of the beach.
