Les Maisons Wat Ko: "Out of the ordinary"

Review by: Msaemund | Source: Trip Advisor
The Maison Wat Kor is a unique resort just outside Battambang. Right in a local village with chickens and cows just outside the gate. The resort is very beautiful with the feeling of beeing in the middle of a forest. Friendly staff and very good food

Hotel Tugu Lombok: "Amazing"

Review by: Holding VioletB... V | Source: Trip Advisor
"The hotel is beautiful and an example of the amazing Tugu style! There are 4 Tugu hotels in Indonesia and this was the only one I didnot visit yet! The way it is set up doesn't make you feel like you are in a hotel. It feels like staying with friends that have a big house with eclectic taste! The staff are very friendly and cater to your every need. The gardens are beautiful and the beach is very quiet. What else can you want? They have 2 Beautiful wooden boats that can take you snorkeling or to the Gili Islands in style! If you go to Lombok this is the place to stay!"

Modern Thai at its best with this award winning restaurant with it talented young Chef whose partner does a mean wine pairing to go with your meal. Highly recommended

Sandat Glamping Tents: "Romantic getaway"

Review by: Lyndal H | Source: Trip Advisor
"Thanks Sandat for a truly lovely and relaxing few days! Passing through busy Ubud your driver takes you along narrow local roads, passed rice paddies and suddenly you are in a luxurious oasis. We found this to be the perfect mix of serenity allowing us to chill out but close to Ubud's restaurants, shops and attractions when we wanted more action. The staff were attentive but not invasive, the food at the restaurant tasty and fresh (we ate in a couple of times and in Ubud a couple of times), I would thoroughly recommend the Glamping tents for a romantic getaway which is slightly different to a traditional hotel."

Tugu Bali: "Beachside Balinese Bliss"

Review by: Sharper28 | Source: Trip Advisor
We wanted to spend sometime on the beach in Bali before heading inland and our stay at Tugu was exactly what we had hoped for and more! Within close reach of nearby cafes and beach clubs for surfing and drinks; the hotel is beautifully decorated, well maintained and has an authentic Balinese style. Canggu is a much quieter beach location than Kuta and Seminyak and the waves are more suitable for beginners. The service was superb, our room was beautiful with a massive comfy bed and the food was amongst the best I have ever eaten. I cannot stress enough how good the breakfast was!! Yum! Whilst the location was a bonus for us, it is important to note that it is in a bustling area and as such you can hear some noise on a weekend. The spa services are on the expensive side and pretty average, but this didn’t bother us too much as the food and everything else was so reasonably priced. The free Balinese dance night was our favourite evening in Bali and the staff were all so friendly and helpful, we would recommend to others and come back in a heartbeat!

Sukoon Houseboat: "Harsh1111"

Review by: Marvel | Source: Trip Advisor
"It was my first time in Kashmir so houseboat was one of the top attractions in my mind. Whilst searching online i encountered this beautiful piece of art and realised how beautiful and perfectly suitable it was for family and a comfortable five star houseboat stay. Upon arrival we were greeted by welcome drink kahwa and a very soft scarf. After that thw fun starts. Beautiful rooms,fresh linen, Kama ayurveda toiletries and not to forget a very courteous and supporting staff. Aashiq Bashir Pannnag Bela Rashid These five made our stay an unforgettable experience and stood all our needs within decent time. Sukoon has its own boat that completes too and fro from the boat ghat 19A to the Sukoon houseboat as a complementary service. Wifi is available roand the clock. It is highly recommended to go for Sukoon houseboat in case one is looking for a houseboat experience."

Summertime Villa: "Warm perfection"

Review by: Marius A | Source: Trip Advisor
"Summertime Villa in Calangute Goa is one of those rare places where every thing is right To wake up in a place full of sunshine and walk with bear feat over the warm tiles to the terras and have a delicious breakfast. This is what a true lazy holiday can be. The staff is always ready to serve you. Lots of attention to detail, we loved the abundance of birds. There are many colourfull birds around the house, but also insite where all kinds of bird figures are around you. The hosts also own a boat, a sunset trip to the lagoon is lovely, we even saw a dolphin. We are a family of 4 with teenage children, lots of space in three big bedrooms"

Inle Heritage Stilt Houses: "Et si c’était le paradis"

Review by: Gilbert T | Source: Trip Advisor
"Au sein du superbe lac Inlé, cet hôtel est plein de charme. Composé de seulement 6 spacieux bungalows sur pilotis meublés avec raffinement, c'est un endroit où l'on doit séjourner si l'on va dans la région. Le bruit des pirogues n'est absolument pas gênant puisque les bungalows ne donnent pas sur le canal principal. Le personnel, jeune et très nombreux (il s'agit d'une école hôtelière), est d'une gentillesse extrême, toujours aux petits soins. Le restaurant sert une excellente cuisine birmane élaborée avec les légumes cultivés sur les jardins flottants qui relient les différents bungalows. Avec mon épouse, nous y retournerions volontiers. Stayed January 2017, traveled as a couple"

4 Rivers Floating Lodge: "Unique Experience"

Review by: asmark53 | Source: Trip Advisor
"Had a really amazing and unique stay in this floating hotel. The hotel is a 30 minute boat ride from the road and so is very isolated and with only 12 Tents for guests it is very peaceful. A place to slow down and contemplate the quieter life. "

Villa Song Saigon: "We saved the best till last"

Review by: MikeLeicester | Source: Trip Advisor
"This was superb! Had a lovely suite (206) and the lay out was very impressive. Mini bar items were complimentary and there was an Apple TV supplementing the normal TV. We booked dinner for 8:00pm and were a little perturbed with the number of noisy children in the restaurant. The Executive Chef, Kevin Marchetti, stopped by to welcome us and wondered if we would be happier dining outside. We hesitated as we were nervous of insects as we would be sitting next to the riverside and he suggested we spray ourselves with insect repellant which he produced quite promptly. We accepted his suggestion and were very pleased that we did. The Menu came on an iPad and there was a photo of every choice which was very helpful and not tacky like some places we have eaten at. The meal was superb and it was a pleasant evening to be sitting outside. And no bites! The next day we took advantage of the boat shuttle into Saigon which was prompt and a pleasant experience. There was a wedding scheduled on our last day and it was laid out really nicely. As we were leaving, the Hotel were very accommodating and found comfy chairs where we could wait for our pick up taking us to the Airport. All in all, a superb experience."
