It was a very pleasant dinner experience we had! We were looking forward to the next dish being served and each dish just keeps getting better. Recommend this place for anniversary, or a romantic dinner.

Misool: "If it was possible to give Misool more than “5 Stars”, I would!"

Review by: John R | Source: Trip Advisor
"This was hands down our best vacation ever! Yes, the destination in itself is dreamlike and exclusively unique; however way beyond that is the amazing staff who work there who truly go above and beyond to make sure that guests have the most memorable experience ever. Assistant resort manager Sue regularly communicated with me via e-mail over a year prior to our trip constantly answering questions, and tailoring accommodations to suit our desires for our trip as well as coordinated many surprises for us when we arrived. Dive/Recreation manager Sabine worked out a schedule with me that provided an even distribution for time underwater and to engage in different tours & activities they offer at the resort. Sabine (a kick-@$$ photographer btw) even took personal time out of her day and assisted my wife and I with an anniversary photo shoot for us. The food at the resort is absolutely delicious. We did not have one bad meal there. The only thing remotely negative about the resort experience is that the ferry boat to get to Misool is a bit ""challenging""; however, in the grand scheme of things, it is a minor negative. My wife and I are fortunate to travel to many great destinations and while we entertain the thought of making return trips, we often decide to explore a new destination. However, after our experience at Misool which was without a doubt our best vacation ever, we are definitely going to be planning a return trip in the future! If you enjoy diving, snorkeling, remote solitude, tranquility, and the most delicious meals, I highly recommend taking the journey to experience this fabulous luxury eco-resort."

The Apsara Rive Droite: "I think it’s the only place in town to stay"

Review by: bettystaffs | Source: Trip Advisor
"I travel a lot in Asia and this is one of my must stay hotels. it has one thing in spades and that's that elusive thing called style. The staff are great if a trifle dotty, the rooms are comfy, the wine list is amazing and the food is great. You won't find a better place in town to hang out. It might not be everyone's idea of luxury but I've never thought that luxury involved looking at in room tea and coffee making facilities. Room Tip: I like downstairs but them i'm nosey"

SEEDS Restaurant & Lounge: "Just awesome"

Review by: Soidog2014 | Source: Trip Advisor
After much anticipation and planning we finally made it to Seeds, the new stunning restaurant of much celebrated Swiss couple Felix and Lucia. After many years in Yangon and previously the proud owners of Le Planteur they opened Seeds. Beautiful location right on the lake with stunning views, extraordinary art pieces, specially hand made plates and all the bells and whistles to go with it. The service was exceptional and the food was out of this world. Myanmar is of course only now waking up to new opportunities and a bit more freedom and much still needs to be done and on the night we visited Felix quickly had to nip off to Bangkok to bring back a suitcase full of ingredients that was not available that day in Yangon. Seriously well done to this extraordinary couple for pulling this off and you will be a fool if you are in Yangon and not visit this place! It's a must !

Rachamankha: "Tranquility"

Review by: bbendorf827 | Source: Trip Advisor
Rachamankha was wonderful. Very clean rooms, great customer service and extremely quiet. The rooms were big with AC, lots of free bottled water and a hair dryer. Every detail was beautifully thought out. No complaints and I have already recommended it to many friends. I would return for sure.

The Cabochon Hotel: "Peace in the middle of the madness"

Review by: Sandy P | Source: Trip Advisor
"Stayed for 3 days recently and was pleasantly surprised at how quiet it was considering its location a stones throw from the Sukhumvit Rd. The most impressive thing was the size of the room. We were in a corner room which is in fact 2 rooms so plenty of space for 2 people. The rooms at the back of the hotel are even quieter but ours on the 1st floor was dark despite there being plenty of Windows as it looked straight out onto some high bamboo which meant there was little natural light during the day. However on the 2nd we were able to move to the same size room on the opposite side which was perfect. The furnishings are comfortable and tasteful, the bed linens good quality and the shower had great water pressure. All things I look for in a hotel. The rooftop pool was a good place to escape in the afternoon when it was too hot to walk around. It was cooler on the roof than in the streets. The pool is a perfect size for lap swimming although a bit narrow for more than a couple of people. I was initially concerned that the buffet breakfast is served in the library/sitting room area with only arm chairs to sit in which makes it awkward for eating but there are a couple of tables outside which we managed to get each morning. We ate dinner in the restaurant on our first evening. It has an extensive menu and the kitchen with it's too chefs was visible so you knew you were getting everything freshly prepared. The staff are all extremely courteous and helpful and I would thoroughly recommend this hotel to anyone who appreciates something a little different from the generic impersonal corporate hotels usually associated with cities."
