Arumdalu: "An Amazing Place"

Love the beach, love the service. Food gets a little expensive compared to outside. However they plant everything, from pepper to vegetables. Love the hydroponic system. Do go for the island hopping tour. it's a blast!

Inle Princess Resort: "Relaxing resort with great food"

"We stayed here for 2 nights in February and could have stayed a bit longer to explore the area more. This a lovely resort and the lake villa we had was really comfortable, clean with lovely bathroom and great outside shower. The food was great with lots of local dishes on the menu, using fresh produce. Service was excellent and the position of the restaurant just perfect. We organised a half day tour of the lake through the resort and this was certainly a highlight of our visit. Stayed February 2017, traveled as a couple"

Villa Song Saigon: "Luxury by the river"

This hotel oozes luxury at every pore, and they have thought of every detail. The room was magnificent with a comfortable bed, beautiful interior and lovely bath soaps. Service was fantastic - helpfully booking dinner for us on each night and arranging for taxis to take us there. The food was amazing - so much so that it was a struggle (that I lost on each occasion) not to overeat at breakfast. The spa and massage was luxurious, the pool looked beautiful, and the riverside setting is beautifully peaceful. In fact my only criticims is that in making the hotel so very comfortable it was difficult to drag ourselves to leave to explore Ho Chi Minh!

Sanak Retreat Bali: "Stunning location & venue"

"We visited the Sanak retreat as the final leg of our Bali honeymoon. The views are stunning. The cabins are simple but have everything you need. The service & food are both excellent. We loved the place. Only thing that spoilt it a bit for us was the weather but as you can see from pics, when the sun is shining it's glorious. Highly recommended for a really relaxing few days."

Tiger Mountain Pokhara Lodge: "Amazing! Can’t wait to go back"

"We were there for 3 nights and it was glorious. Everything about this place is perfect: - staff: wonderful, very kind and helpful - rooms: the little huts are just perfect. They are private, wonderfully decorated and have everything one might need. Natural soaps are provided and filtered coffee - grounds: the location is magical. You see the beautiful Annapurna range. MUST DO: get the sunrise coffee and cookies. They will bring it to your room just in time for the sunrise view. Walk up to the pool - there is a beautiful reflection - food- we had all our meals there and everything was absolutely delicious. The Nepalese food is exquisite. Breakfast is lovely. Great coffee and biscuits. Do not hesitate to book this place. You won't regret it. The only danger is that you might not want to leave it. We went for a day to explore Pokhara and kept missing the glorious calm and soothing atmosphere of Tiger resort We will be back! Room Tip: Make sure you eat at the terrace. Get a hot water bottle at night ;)"

Locavore: "Best in Bali"

Melbourne foodies giving it 4 stars. Fantastic food and service. All I can say is when in Ubud it's the best you'll find. Try it!

Villa Song Saigon: "Beautiful"

This is a beautiful hotel! It is off the beaten path in a more residential area (large expat community) and we couldn't have loved that more. Being on the water was great, especially in a city that can be very congested. The area has lots of great restaurants. (If you want a nice dinner out, we had a great time at La Villa. For something more casual, the Mad House was great.) The hotel itself is beautiful and well maintained. (The first floor is somewhat of a garden level, perfect if you don't want to take any stairs, but the ceilings in our room there were low. We asked and were very promptly and graciously moved to a room on a higher level, which required taking a couple flights of stairs but was much more spacious. It really depends on what you are looking for, but if stairs aren't an issue, I would highly recommend requesting a room not on the first floor.) Breakfast is superb and the front desk is always eager to help. (They made reservations for us, called many taxis that all showed up very quickly, and even made arrangements for us to have an extra early breakfast the morning of our departure.) As others have mentioned there are stairs and no lift, so I would request a certain floor if you have a preference. Finally, they charge a lot for to pre-book transportation to and from the airport. Since the prices were so steep, we chose not to use it. Instead, we booked a pick up with another company. From the airport, it might be worth it to have them pick you up; it's very busy and chaotic. Returning to the airport, however, I would just get a cab. We just had them call a cab (they always call only certain brands of taxi) and it was $15 to go back to the airport.

Villa Mathis: "Amazing stay"

After staying at Villa Mathis and having one of those great amazing trips we would definitely recommend other people to stay there. the staff are really well trained and friendly, the accommodations are luxurious and the architecture is typical for Bali making it an immersive stay and keeps you close to the Bali culture.

Locavore: "Another amazing culinary experience in the best restaurant in Bali"

I had another amazing meal, 7 courses, with loads and loads of surprising, creative, interesting and very tasty morsels both at the beginning of the meal and around the dessert course. Presentation is a marvel. As usual I had the "carnivore option," but my two friends opted for the "plant-based option." All of us were pleased beyond expectations. I love oak-otak and Locavore's version, with the duck egg aioli (I guess that is what I would call it) was perhaps the star of my meal, though the old favorite--Into the Sawah--of course was delicious. The special Locavore tomato "soup" was, as always, spectacular. And i love the "freebie" cassava roti too. All seven courses were. My friends raved about their veg tasting menu. And I must admit I was a bit disappointed that I did not choice to have the Banana Blossom. This must become, like Into the Sawah, a main stay of the Locavore team. Service was super friendly and professional. Cannot recommend Locavore highly enough.

The Cabochon Hotel: "Outstanding and charming"

Amazingly beautiful colonial style hotel where every single detail has been meticulously thought through. Great staff, beautiful breakfast and the most charming bar with crazy good gin and tonics. Incredible to find such a zen like oasis in the middle of Sukhumvit and all it offers.
