Neeleshwar Hermitage: "Beautiful and Serene"

"This place surpassed our already high expectations ! Some of things that took our breath away - A vast secluded CLEAN beach, Clean sea water, Dolphins swimming. Even the interiors of the resort are beautiful. The rooms are rustic on the outside and modern and comfortable comparable to any 5-7 star property. The bathrooms are beautiful beyond imagination. The resort uses plastic minimally and lives up to its green promise. Infinity pool is gorgeous (...) The library deserves a special mention. Its not some randomly put together library but cleverly chosen selection of literature. It would have been great to have some Indian books for young readers as this resort attracts a lot of family crowd as per our experience. Staff deserves special mention as they were generous and friendly but same time non intrusive. We can't wait to go back as we already feel drawn towards the place once again."

Chakrabongse Villas: "An oasis in the center of old Bangkok"

"Worth the extra money! AND We got a free upgrade. Beautiful Resort on the river that is a stark contrast to the busy, bustling, 'aeromatic' Bangkok streets! Right across the street from Wat Pho and a 15 minute walk to the Grand Palace. Perfect stay for our 2 days in Bangkok!!! Also served us a delicious breakfast Stayed March 2017"

Muang La Lodge: "Improbable et parfait"

"Trouver un endroit aussi beau et avec une restauration aussi étonnante, dans cette ville, c'était assez improbable. Et pourtant.... L'accueil du manager Raphaël est très chaleureux, le staff est là pour vous donner plus que ce que pouviez espérer. On est très vite bien, même très bien dans ce petit coin de paradis. Mais rien est dit tant qu'on est pas passé à table. Là aussi, on peut se lâcher sur le superlatifs. OK, on le sait, au Laos on mange très bien. Mais là, c'est encore un ton au dessus. On ne peut dire que Bravo, au site, au staff, au restaurant, et à Raphaël qui font que, grâce à eux, au moment du départ on espère très vite y revenir. Une dernière pensée pour Raphaël et le village de Beaufort (France) qui fait partie de nos plus beaux souvenirs d'enfance."

Rice & Zen Boutique Resort: "Understated, Charming, Comfortable and Friendly Team Members"

"Although the weather throughout our stay was not kind to us, it did not dampened our spirits to have some time out and relax in the resort. We stayed in a two bed room villa and a sea facing villa, each with its own plunge pool. My family was picked up by the hotel team at the airport straight to the resort, a service provided if you book direct. The drive was less than 15 minutes away. Upon reaching the hotel, we drived on a gravel road. Our room are very spacious, clean and comfortable. The gardens are beautifully maintained and there is a herbs and vegetables plot which the kitchen uses it in their menu extensively. The housekeeping team clean the room daily and they do a wonderful job. They also enter the room only when you are away from the room. Our plunge pool are cleaned early in the morning each day. All around the resort ground, wifi is provided, but signals may be weak at certain spots. In my opinion, if you are on a truly switch off vacation, wifi will be your least worry. Otherwise, wifi signal are excellent at the main restaurant; Sea Salt. Our breakfast at Sea Salt Restaurant each morning is simply beautiful and bountiful. The scale of the resort reflects the buffet offerings. One shall not expect a 300 room buffet spread. As a frequent traveller, the breakfast buffet selection is a beautifully balance and nutritious meal to start the day. The fruits are beautifully sliced, and every day, there is a juice of the day made from local fruit of choice. There is an egg station with all the condiments and accompaniments cook to order. The hot section consist Asian staple such as congee, noodles, dim-sum and steamed bun. Bacon and sausages are also offered with waffles and pancakes too! In addition, pastries and bakery, cereals, yoghurt, selection of jams, peanut butter and honey. Tea are individually brewed, and coffee whether you prefer a regular brew, espresso or latte, both are excellent, fresh, strong and bold. Coffee and espresso is my morning ritual, you will be surprised by their selection and beans choice. Sea Salt Restaurant overlooks the beach, ocean and swimming pool, even though it was rainy on all the mornings I was there, the interaction I had with the team, the ambience, the flowers, sound of rain drops, all made it a memorable experience. The team members make the effort to check on you without overdoing it. There are good selection of books to randomly read for a lazy day, you are free to hang out, nap, sleep at the comfortable lounge chairs and benches in Sea Salt. My family and I had dinner in Sea Salt Restaurant two nights in a row. It was not because of the rain, but truly the food served in the restaurant ticks all the right boxes. Small scale restaurant but big on flavors, big on eyes(presentation), explosive flavors from Thai herbs. The culinary team deserves a great compliment. At first looking at the menu, the repertoire is international and also Thai-centric. Usually, I am quite reserve and hesitant with ambitious menu like this. Then again, after dining extensively and selecting a wide range of the offering, I am pleased to say that the culinary team are well experience and passionate with their food. There is a wine cellar with an interesting selection of wines from both new and old world. The cocktails! Oh my, very very surprising! My brothers and I enjoyed the cocktails selection. Each cocktails tried was strong, bold, classic and inventive and beautifully presented. Well done to the Bartender. I have to say my stay at Sea Dance was excellent despite the rainy weather. The villa and gardens are well maintained. I was completely relaxad and rejuvenated. The food and beverage offering are honestly excellent. Finally the ultimate difference of any hotel or resort, small or big, are the staff. The staff at Sea Damce are approachable, respectful, charming, friendly and always goes all the way out to assist my family and me. Never mind the language barrier, the effort and genuine effort shines through. The Sea Dance is a resort in the making a little over 2 years, approaching 3 now. If you willing to step away from your usual global chain hotels and off-the-beaten-path sort of holiday, you will not be dissapointed. Thank you Sea Dance Resort and Team. Stayed April 2017, traveled with family"

Inle Princess Resort: "Amazing property"

Probably the most beautiful property we have been lucky to stay in Myanmar. Rooms are amazing, very spacious and functional. This is perfectly quiet, and for sure you will enjoy your stay if you are looking to relax and chill. Food was delicious, from breakfast to dinner; service was impeccable. Corporate Social Responsibility is taken seriously at the Inle Princess Resort - like we've never seen in any other hotel in the world. Meeting Misuu, the owner, was a real luck to better understand the challenge of taking care of Myanmar and Inle Lake heritage: sincerely one of the best stay EVER we had. We will be back FOR SURE!

Maison Polanka: "Personal service in a green oasis"

"Where else will you find hotel staff that welcome you back after a warm bike trip with cold towels and a smile? This is what makes Maison Polanka special; the personal touch. Every small request is taken care of. Room is gerat, pool fabulous and the food super yummy. I casually mentioned that my husband and I were on holidays for our wedding anniversary and just before we left, we received a Congratulations card, signed by all staff. Super sweet!"

Chakrabongse Villas: "Sublime oasis"

While expensive by any town's standard this calm in the storm of sensations that is Bankok is worth it. Ms Atom and the staff are so welcoming we felt like family (in a good way), maybe even royalty. The food, both breakfast and a diner, are first rate. And you can eat while you watch the constant parade of boats on the river, most entertaining. The flower market just down the street is fascinating, especially at night. Must see sights abound in the neighborhood and the water bus-boat stops are just around the corner to take you up or down river.  Skip the in room drinks and grab your refreshments from any of several shops (even 7 Eleven) along the street. Lounge by the pool or sit on one of the the riverside decks. The sunset can be fabulous.

Slow Villas and Spa: "Amazing place"

"Nice an relaxing. Great service. All the mod cons. Probably the most luxurious accommodation on the island. The Indonesian BBQ that you can order on request is amazing. Great aircon, pool, beds, little kitchen and even a USB with shows on it in case you want a lazy afternoon watching Human Planet, Bikes and lights supplied. Great architecture, happy helpful staff. Massage included, yoga sessions, Pilates. Just Amazing"

tugu bali: "Amazing accommodations"

"We absolutely LOVED Tugu hotel in Canggu. The location is perfect, the service is AMAZING and the food was delicious. The suites are breathtaking, ours came with a fruit basket of local fruit. The bathroom was half outdoors, filled with flowers and was surrounded by a Koi pond with a beautiful ladle to pour water traditionally. We also had a private pool in our back yard which was a tropical paradise. You have amazing options for seating indoors or out when dining, and the complimentary afternoon tea was diving. "
