Well, you know. You could forgive those who are wondering why, while you're in the midst of paradise lapping up the luxury and all, you change your TA username and have time to post a review of another property you visited months ago (after it was mentioned yesterday that a good portion of the 5s are from users with no other reviews except that of the Waldorf). I'm not making judgements, just saying it seemed pretty fishy (pardon the pun)!

We have noticed a few permanent type changes in the way they’re doing some of the smaller things too.
Can you give us some examples? Would be good for those here on the forum that have upcoming stays as folks are worried about the service and how well (or badly) organized they are.

Have to disagree with you on this one. After you've been to Rangali or another Maldives resort which has natural undergrowth you'll likely change your mind.
