Even better the second time around!

“My wife and I first visited MER in 2013 (if interested, see my review dated July 9, 2013) and returned for our second visit in February of this year. Our observations: In the three years between visits, the fish life has continued to rebound in a remarkable fashion thanks to MER’s No Take Zone and […]

Staying in the middle of art and culture

“We were travelling with three small kids (3,5,7) and Tugu hotel in Canggu was our last stop in Bali after staying in Intercontinental Jimbaran and the villas in Ubud and Lovina. We were looking for something different than the large chain hotels and Tugu hotel turned out to be just the right place. The hotel […]

A Perfect Romantic Getaway

“We travelled overseas for the first time and we are anxious and excited of what we’re going to see. We visited Siem Reap first and then the amazing 4Rivers Floating Lodge. It was a genius idea on how it was built and Anna’s dedication in preserving the river and the surroundings of Tatai is just […]

Charming and Comforting

“So relieved every time we got back to the hotel from the hot streets of Bangkok. A great experience in comfort and service. Simple breakfast but pretty nice and complete. The Design and atmosphere are de real winners at this place. Location its also a good feature, not down at the center of the City […]

A little piece of paradise

“As the location is quite far out from Kuching we decided to rent a car from the airport which made more sense and was cheaper then taxi’s/organised trips. It was a little hard to find when you arrive as the place has no signs. However the location on google maps is correct it just does […]

Our favourite place in the Philippines

“This is the perfect place for people like us – wanting to get slightly off the beaten path but with creature comforts such as good water pressure, comfy bed, good food…and most importantly, a beautiful beach with some of the best snorkelling right off the beach we have seen. (…) The snorkelling was incredible – […]

A lovely place fr a hideway

“Second visit to Samanea, and the gardens have grown, the views from the jetty still amazing, the mangrove project ambitious and fascinating… and the team and service much better than the first time. Congratulation for the good work!”

Authentic Experience

“Satri House delivers on its promise of being “”a historic destination, a unique design””. The original house was run as a hotel since 2002 and was extended in 2008 reflecting the original architecture. We stayed over Songkran for 4 nights and were warmly welcomed by Jacques Mury (General Manager) and Navinda Imbubpa (Guest Experience Manager). […]

Amazing place

Tiger mountain lodge is amazingly relaxing, an oasis of beauty and organisation and fantastic food in the midst of a fabulously beautiful environment. The chef is splendid, the walks wonderful and the people and enthusiasm for the locale and the villages something to behold. There is a surprising amount to do and you are also […]

Unique, peaceful and beautiful

“Sanak is an oasis of peace, off the beaten track, between rice fields, with cooler temperatures than the rest of Bali but actually perfect and hot just a bit less humid and not boiling hot. The view over rice fields is amazing, we stayed in a bungalow – very comfortable and stylish. Good food, organic, […]
