The Cabochon Hotel: "Perfect weekend retreat"
What a great hotel! Tucked away at the end of the long stretch of busy Sukhumvit is this gem of a hotel. Small and charming. Friendly, attentive and personable staff. Has a great lounge for cocktails and a rooftop pool. Just 13 rooms!Manukan Island Resort: "Beach villa"
Wonderful refitted rooms, completed in January 2017. Private beach and pool for residents. Delicious food. The resort staff cannot do enough to ensure you enjoy your stay. Day trips snorkeling and scuba diving available.Slow Villas and Spa: "Hidden little secret"
"Slow is located on the eastern part of Gili Air - it s a small island, but this area is still quiet, with many coconuts and few construction. Each villa is a little private sanctuary, with a large garden, a nice pool, a terrace. charming decoration, quality linen... and the possibility if you like to have a chef to come and cook a BBQ just for you. Very friendly team, happy to share their favorite spots around the island. it's not right on the beach... but this is why also it's so quiet... and beach is 2mn walk! recommended: take a bike and go around the island by bike!"4 Rivers Floating Lodge: "wonderful"
A wonderful place... quite... fun... good food... we've made a beautiful daytrip into mangroves, thanks to Ngat.... swimming in the river, what a feeling.... super team, Thanks to Anna for all ! I love this placeCuca: "Hier moet moet MOET je naartoe!"
"Ok, het is geen Indonesisch eten, dus wil je alle dagen van de week rijsttafel eten, moet je hier niet zijn. Maar dan alsnog... MOET je hier naartoe! Naast dat het restaurant er simpel maar relaxt en netjes eruit ziet, is de ontvangst ook nog eens heel vriendelijk. Maar nog belangrijker: het eten is heerlijk! Laat je niet tegenhouden door het woord ‘tapas’ want het heeft niks te maken met de Spaanse taferelen die je wellicht associeert aan een La Cubanita. Nee. En nog eens nee. Ik heb 3 gerechten gekozen (had er wel meer willen nemen..) en allen smaakten heerlijk en apart. Uiteraard als afsluiter een dessert; Bali breakfast. En, je raadt het al, dit was ook mega genieten. Extra nice; ik zat buiten en kreeg meteen een muskito spray, ik was alleen en kreeg gezellig wat tijdschriften op tafel gelegd. Kortom: een hele dikke aanrader! (Excuses voor het hoge “wat schrijf ik overenthousiast” gehalte, maar ik ben erg blij dat ik dit restaurant toevallig ben tegengekomen en nu dus aan iedereen aan kan raden)"Satri House: "Charme désuet de l’Indochine avec toutes les commodités modernes"
"Quel bonheur d'arriver dans ce havre de paix au charme d'antan et plein d'odeurs exotiques. Personnel très attentionné et à la fois discret. Magnifiques jardins, piscines, chambres... tout y est parfait. Inutile de dire que nous avons adoré ainsi que les vélos à disposition pour se rendre en ville qui est à 10 minutes à pieds. Stayed February 2017, traveled with friends"Tugu Bali: "Art, History and Romance"
"We stayed for 2 nights and we're completely amazed by the special atmosphere of the Tugu Hotel Bali. This small museum of Indonesian art and history left us mesmerized. The lovely staff of the hotel made us feel at home and bringing hospitality to the next level. Our suite was wonderful, on the second floor with a huge Balinese style tub and great ocean view. Very rustic appearance, but with all modern conveniences and a very romantic and confy bed beautifully crafted . The natural beauty of the property gardens make it beautiful during the day and enchanting at night. We enjoyed the lush breakfast, with a wide variety of freshly made juices, that could be served anytime and anywhere we wanted. Every Thursday night the hotel has a cultural evening, with traditional dances what allowed us to know a little bit better the Balinese culture."Cabochon Hotel & Residence: "Easy and elegant hotel, lovely to return to after a day roaming Bangkok"
I like every thing about Cabochon, but mostly the serene and peaceful atmosphere. Despite the very obsessive attention to design details, the overall atmosphere is of ease and friendliness. The food at the restaurant is good. Breakfast is a bit cramped and the small buffet could/ should be improved - the fruit section in particular. One small thing this time the music in the public areas was rather loud, and we had to ask if it could be turned down a little. But these are details. I stay at Cabochon every time I go to Bangkok and I love it.Tiger Mountain Pokhara Lodge: "Well looked after"
Stayed in April. Our lodge was comfortable, food excellent and the staff and owner very friendly. We were well looked after. Highlights included the resident birdlife and the possibility of seeing the leopard who roams the area. Best of all, was the sunrise casting a pink glow over Fishtail mountain and the others in the Annapurna range. This only happened one of the mornings we were there, nevertheless it was awesome.Sanak Retreat Bali: "Jamais deux sans trois"
"Troisième séjour à Sanak Retreat car on ne change pas une équipe qui gagne. Tout est toujours parfait, la vue sur les rizières toujours aussi belle, le bungalow toujours aussi confortable et bien décoré, la chef toujours aussi talentueux, tout le personnel toujours aussi gentil, chaleureux et aux petits soins, et Wawan et son équipe dispensent toujours les meilleurs massages de Bali. Désolé les gars, vous ne nous avez pas encore lassés et nous reviendrons."
