Les Maisons Wat Kor: "A little bit of paradise"

"Staff are extremely welcoming and could not do enough to make our stay a real pleasure. Rooms were comfortable and grounds well looked after Breakfast was really nice and other meals were tasty and economical. It is a little out of the main town area , we had access to a guide and driver thru Exo travel which made it say to get around. Thanks to the staff and management."

Tugu Bali: "An amazing experience"

A few days ago my wife and I were fortunate enough to have the absolute pleasure of staying at the amazingly beautiful TUGU HOTEL. We cannot be more complimentary about the facilities, the ambiance and the staff, who themselves left us in awe at their willingness to please us at every opportunity. We dined at the adjoining Ji Restaurant which should be placed on everyone's 'TO DO' list, as dining there is remarkable....the food, the staff, and the cocktails are beyond compare. A truly exhilarating experience and the Balinese Dancers were a cultural 'plus' and one that we are very keen to repeat!

Satri House: "Quiet and relaxed"

"Thank you to all the very kind and helpful staff at the hotel who gave us lots of good advice, arranged tuktuk and minibus drivers and always had a friendly word. The rooms are fine, a bit cramped but comfortable. Snacks left in the afternoon were a nice treat after a day out. Breakfast was wonderful with lots to eat and a big pot of tea. The jams are amazing and I don't usually eat jam! Sitting in the bar in the evening after eating out and visiting the night market was lovely. The hotel is very close to town. Leave by the back route by the pool if going into town. We recommend this hotel and thank all the friendly staff for a lovely stay."

Sanak Retreat Bali: "Family vacation"

"What a wonderful stay / experience - We just love Sanak Retreat Bali. After travelling around asia for 2 months We arrived at this wonderful, beautiful and most quiet place at Bali. We had a lovely and warm greeting by the staff / No I Will not Call it staff but the Sanak Family. Due our stay they where all so kind, helpful and aware of every guest. The surroundings are breathtaking and even in rain season this is the perfect place to be for exploring and relaxing. We are looking forward to come back!"

Misool Eco Resort: "We love Misool"

"This was our second trip to Misool - our first with our children in tow. Misool is a wonderful place with stunning diving and very good service. We were lucky enough to be upgraded from two water cottages for our family of five to the Utara villa, which is amazing (thank you!). There is nothing as captivating as watching baitfish launch themselves above the reef to escape predators or the bioluminescence that sparkles in the new moon of Misool. Our kids had wonderful snorkeling excursions - even our youngest (5 years old) saw mantis shrimp, sharks, sea turtles and sea snakes (required a bit of a boat ride - sea snakes require fresh water). The dive guides are wonderful. We especially love Kiikii (from our first trip), Nofi (snorkel guide) and Jemy (our dive guide this time). Uni got us advanced open certified and cannot thank her enough. I would encourage travelers to coordinate with on the ground staff to ensure your desires/hopes/dreams are understood. We had a few hiccups. we love the mission and vision of everyone at Misool. Highly recommend."

Samanea Beach Resort: "Peaceful, Green, Amazing Resort"

"Here is my review after my 2days, 1 night stay: Tuk-Tuk Pick Up =============== It was hard to estimated what time I will arrived in Kep from Sihanoukville. My transportation got delayed arrived in Kep, as I already mentioned my arrival time with the resort, they already had the tuktuk waiting for me at the bus/van station in Kep. I also informed that I will be delayed for an hour. When I arrived at the station, I was greeted by my tuktuk to bring me to the resort, I was really surprise he still waiting for me patiently despite of the delay. He was friendly. Journey from bus station to the resort, took about 3-4 minutes. Check-in / Lobby ================= When arrived at the resort, I was greet by the bell staff and he helped me with my luggage. It was really beautiful resort from the first impression I stepped out from the tuktuk. It is very green and the surrounding just calm and very relaxing. Myself then checked-in, it was smooth,and the reception is an open space. Nothing much, and they have like a lounge with a small library. It was good. Just for your info, here, there are only 12 villas, so it's a little privacy. After checked-in, the bell staffs helped me with my luggage and guide me to my villa. Deluxe Double Villa =================== When I arrived at my villa, it was breathtakingly gorgeous and spacious. The bed is super amazing and very comfortable and including the mosquito nett. It is like I am ready for my honeymoon, unfortunately I was here single. What I love is when I pull the blind of my glass window, and the green view pop up. It was really relaxing when you are on your bed while surrounded with the serene view. The TV area also great with with a big sofa. I love the office table area as here is where I done all my worked. If you can see, there are big fans near the office table as the room too spacious, the AC might not very cold. The drawer and cupboard also big. Inside they provided the insect spray as if you want to get rid of mosquitoes inside your villa. As its surrounded by the garden, some of mosquitoes might lost to your villa. Open Bathroom ============== What I love the most about this villa, its offering open bathroom. The bathroom is really huge. There are 3 ways to have your shower, first normal shower rain, second using the water big vase where you need to use traditional coconut dipper. And other one, of course the bathtub. The shower area is surrounded by the green plant and it is quiet relaxing when you are taking the dip in the bathtub, and enjoying the warm bath. But to be honest, it is quiet challenging to use the toilet in the middle of the night when you are staying alone. Breakfast ========= As for the breakfast, there are few menus you can choose. So I chose pancake, I also mentioned I do want any meat as they also offered bacon as a side dish. The waiter seems understand what I said, unfortunately, when my pancake arrived, it accompanied with bacon. So I asked them to remove the bacon and changing the new plate. So, the waiters here, a little bit struggle to understand English. As per photo, that's all my breakfast. Swimming Pool ============= Even this resort only offered 12 villas, but they have really huge swimming pool. You can do a view olympic lapse here if you want to. Unfortunately, I requested towel a few times with the staffs at the restaurant, but still I did not get any towel. At last, I backed to my villa in wet. In my opinion, their staffs need a lot to improve with communication skill and their services, as this resort, the guest is not as many as city hotel, if one person at one time, they can't handle, I am not very sure how they handle a large group. Hoping they can improve from time to time as the resort is amazing. Beach ====== Like I mentioned earlier, here is the only one resort with their own beach. You can enjoy the sea and view with a little privacy away from the touristic area. At the beach, there is barbecue facilities provided and massage hut, where you can have your massage at the beach with a sea view. The bonus is, here you can enjoy very beautiful sunset. And they have very long wooden bridge, I think is about 200m. It is really cool, reminded me with U Bein bridge in Mandalay, Myanmar. Location ======== It is about 3 minutes tuk tuk ride from bus station or Crab Market area, with the fare of 3USD. It's really a long walk from Crab Market (2km), but you can use the bicycle from the resort. At night, the road to the resort is really dark. Avoid to use bicycle or walk at the main road at night. Conclusion =========== Samanea Beach Resort is a little gems in Kep, Cambodia. If you are looking for a privacy, and romantic trips or family gateway, here is the best place for you! I would love to stay here again, but next time with my love one."

Tiger Mountain Pokhara Lodge: "Best lodge in Pokhara… if not the whole of Nepal"

Tiger Mountain Pokhara Lodge was by far the best place we stayed in our month long trip to Nepal. Marcus was a fantastic host, and the staff went above and beyond to make our stay the best ever. The lodge itself is beautiful and the view will definitely make you want to outstay your visit!

Tugu Malang: "Always feels welcome"

This historic hotel is a museum as much a hotel. I have been staying here for around 15 years and the service never falters it is perfect. From the moment you enter reception you are treated like an individual. The staff go out of their way to remember your name and always refer to you by name. The dining at the restaurant is fabulous. The whole experience is one that you must feel for yourself. It is unique in Asia. Recommended to anyone

Neeleshwar Hermitage: "Heavenly Retreat"

"Elegant, tasteful and spiritual haven. A wonderful end to an amazingly busy and eventful tour.We left feeling rejuvenated and fully refreshed having enjoyed the wonderfully comfortable and harmonious ambience. The attention to detail and care taken at every level contributes to the magic of this place.With only twelve cottages, we were given personal service and attention of the highest order. The breakfasts served at the beach cafe are beautifully presented and delicious.In the evening we enjoyed supper under the stars at the beach cafe too…eating freshly caught fish and sea food."

Glenburn Tea Estate: "Magical Location and Five star service"

The magical location of this resort poised on a hill with direct views of Darjeeling town and Kachenjunga from my bedroom window is quite unforgettable. Lush gardens communal dinners and a sense of a bygone time reminiscent of the british rag. Day trips to Darjeeling and Kalipong and the river camp. Husna and Alex went out of their way to make me feel at home.
