I’ve stayed at Le Meridien which was surprisingly nice but also at the St. Regis and that place is incredible.

4-5 nights would be sufficient I think. I got bored after a full week, but it’s such a pain to get there you need a decent number of nightsz

I actually stayed at an independent hotel in the Maldives. I just didn’t want to pay the insane food and drink costs. But it’s an amazing place

I’d definitely recommend more. Even if you’re in that part of the world it’s going to take a while to get to the resort and it’s well worth it once you get there.

W Maldives!

St Regis always, but Le Meridian is cheaper

I’m doing Singapore, Bangkok then 5 nights each at St Regis and Ritz Carlton Maldives this month. Happy to report back if you want a comparison. Used points for both Maldives hotels using 5th night free

St Regis was amazing! I can’t recommend enough

Hi! I’m doing some research on employee benefits (medical insurance, 401k, HSA/FSA, commuter benefits) and was hoping to connect with People specialists or HR professionals in the comp & benefits space. I’m trying to better understand any pain points or challenges you might face with utilization/enrollment. Anyone interested in connecting? Thank you!

Transactional associate. Lateraled 6 months ago and one of the biggest pain points has been my new firm’s inclination to “hop on a call”, which of course requires every single stakeholder to join. The end result being every call has 25 people on it and nothing actually gets done because no one wants to ask a question that could come off as silly. It’s destroying my ability to get anything done during the day. It’s a complete performance and it drives me nuts.

I'm working on a Fintech startup related to commercial banking pricing. We would like to do some "expert interviews" with current RMs (we would compensate your time.) We want to better understand the friction points when it comes to price C&I or CRE loans. Please DM me if you are interested.

We are not looking for any private information, but more anecdotal evidence of issues that can be improved.

As realtors, our worst and best friend are the contractors, being friends with the contractor that remodelled a home you are going to sell is a plus because you can know for sure what kind of improvements were made to the house and why; and what kind of things are pending to be improved, that way you can provide real information to the client. You know what they say: a happy client always comes back to you.
