Reverie Siam: "Gorgeous grounds"

Quite possibly the best hotel I have ever stayed in. Stunning grounds and bedrooms. The staff here are so friendly, particularly in the restaurant. The food was very tasty, in fact we had dinner here twice and lunch once, as well as breakfast every morning (try the avocado omelette and then a mojito later in the day!) it was the small touches in the hotel which we liked. For example the bean bag cushions on the decking overlooking the river, we spent an entire afternoon lazing on these watching the world go by. Yes the hotel is not in the centre of Pai, but then most hotels and guest houses in the area aren't. Reverie Siam is a little over 1km from the walking street, and the hotel provide a free shuttle service at any time upon request. They also gave me a mobile so that I could phone them when I wanted to be picked up. One minor irritation was the dim lighting in the room, but everything else was so lovely including the free standing bath tub that this didn't bother us. Definitely somewhere I would stay again.

Samanea Beach Resort: "Wonderful quiet paradise"

"We stayed 4 nights at this wonderful place. It is a bit outside Kep but you can easily catch a tuk tuk for 3 $. The staff were all so friendly and helpful all the time. The food was nice even though there was not that much from. Excellent happy hour with good drinks. Bungalows were big and very comfortable, clean and nice. Liked the outdoor bath! Can only recommend this place - wonderful and quiet"

David’s Kitchen: "Superb food with impeccable service"

"Superb food with impeccable service We just couldn’t stay away from this oasis of top drawer fine dining. The owner and host David Gordon was there to greet us and his other guests nothing is too much trouble and your every wish in designing your particular favourite dishes is followed to the letter. A culinary experience not to be missed."

David’s Kitchen: "Dining Does Not Get Better Than At David’s Kitchen"

"Dining is not just eating food - it is an experience that should involve delicious food/drinks, gracious hospitality, a pleasing ambiance and the generation of plenty of memories to smile back on for years to come. My girlfriend and I had the dining experience of a lifetime last night at the new location of David's Kitchen - and this experience afforded us all of those things that I mentioned above at an unparalleled level! I had the very best tuna dish that I have ever had - highly recommended for if/when you make the brilliant decision to try David's Kitchen yourself. David was strolling around the very pleasant dining area while we ate and he spoke to us on a few different occasions as we enjoyed our meal. He is a very kind and interesting man that brings wonderful conversation to the table - pun intended. I had the pleasure of expressing my love for the tuna dish and he was gracious enough to invite us back into his kitchen to meet the head chef and the rest of the kitchen staff - this just took what was already an incredible evening to the kind of experience that my girlfriend and I will look back on for decades with nothing but smiles! And, to top it all off, the dining room manager brought my girlfriend a beautiful rose as we were walking into the parking lot to our taxi. It was like the evening couldn't stop getting better! So, there you have it. Some of the best food we have ever eaten. Certainly the best hospitality we have ever experienced at a restaurant. An ambiance that promotes a delightful meal. And memories that I will now have to cherish for the rest of my life. David's Kitchen provides the epitome of what dining should be. And, not to forget, at an EXTREMELY reasonable price! Nothing short of incredible. If you are EVER in Thailand - please, please do yourself and your traveling mates a huge favor and find time to make it into David's Kitchen! On my word - you will absolutely not regret it. Cheers!"

Villa Song Saigon: "Great riverside hotel in Ho Chi Minh city"

"Highly attentive and professional staff. Really great setting next to the river where you can watch the fascinating array of boats go past. Really great room and a nice pool to chill by when not out sightseeing. Breakfasts are great too. Stayed November 2016, traveled with family"

Mume: "Exquisite"

We arrived for the early sitting on a Monday evening, and were struck again by the understated mood lighting and spare design and furnishing. There was an exciting bustle from the wait staff and chefs and everyone seemed genuinely energized to engineer a great experience for the customers. As expected, the options were exotic, yet approachable and we each chose a perfect fit for our four courses. The food was exquisitely presented, so much so that we were disappointed to disturb each artwork to consume it. The staff took the time to explain each course as it was offered, just enough information to enhance the experience, but not too much: all delivered in perfect English for us. A taste sensation and a very enjoyable ambiance. Thanks, Mume, once again!

Cheong Fatt Tze – Blue Mansion: "A Glimps of Time"

"The time we entered the Blue Mansion, we were embraced in the aroma of ancient times. I spent a whole evening visiting around the hotel and had a wonderful time enjoying the scenes. When it was getting dark gradually and the red lanterns were on, it seemed I had traveled back to the old times. It was a pleasant and satisfying trip to this hotel. Stayed February 2017, traveled with friends"

Neeleshwar Hermitage: "Peace, Tranquility & Comfort."

"My title epitomises Neeleshwar Hermitage. This was our 3rd visit & it was as good or better than the previous 2 visits. For absolute peace, tranquility & as a stress buster from our hectic schedules Neeleshwar is the place to go to. The rooms are big & spacious,the bathrooms even bigger & a nice clean swimming pool. To add to this you have the beach & ocean right at your doorstep.... what more can one ask for. This beautiful resort is located 15mins from Bekal fort & a 2 hr drive from Mangalore in the quiet town of Neeleshwaram. Now coming to the staff, Jayan & his team have perfected the art of being perfect hosts. Hospitality oozes from them & they are ever smiling. The food has improved a lot since our last visit & they have more variety of dishes. Shashi & his team are willing to satisfy your taste buds. Basically 5 Stars to all the support staff.... Melbin, Rajitha, the head chef to name just a few. Thanks to all of them for making our trip memorable. Getting to see the Theyyam ritual was a added bonus."

tugu lombok: "A place you’ll remember forever"

"I've seen quite a few big and luxurious resorts, but I can guarantee that my stay at Tugu Lombok will remain in my mind like one of the most amazings I've ever seen. The beach of the resort is one of the most beautiful white sand beaches I've ever seen, the calm of the resort and the accomodations are amazing, the food is to die for...and the staff is always taking care of you. The villas are simply so beautiful, clean and astonishing that leaving them is quite painful. A paradise on earth. "
