The Village House: "Fabulous retreat-you must stay here"

"We stayed at The Village house in mid August this year (2015), and we loved every minute of our stay. The rooms are luxurious, wonderfully comfortable and thoughtfully and tastefully decorated. The hotel itself is stunning, everything has been done for you to effortlessly enjoy the stunning surroundings and allow you to fully relax. We took lots of trips from The Village House, all of which were excellent and extremely hassle free. We ate in the restaurant every day and never had a bad meal, again a really thoughtfully put together menu and everything was fabulous. The greatest accolade goes tot eh staff, they are amazing, made us feel very welcome and at home, fantastic experience."

Samanea Beach Resort: "Girls Trip in Cambodia"

Beautiful, secluded resort. The hospitality and atmosphere is beyond expectations. We arrived in early afternoon to welcoming arms and were escorted to our villa. We enjoyed the delicious lunch and partook in 2 for 1 drinks at happy hour. When the bar tender discovered I preferred Bacardi Rum to what they offered, he went to a market and purchased it for my next drink! Unbelievable people! The servers gladly held our second round of drinks for after we returned from dinner. Everyone is friendly, helpful, and kind. The outdoor bath and shower were a perfect ending to serene and peaceful day.

Cabochon: "Excellent + cozy"

Well-appointed, comfortable and quiet. Probably the best hotel we stayed in during our month in Asia. A wonderful little hideaway amidst the madness of Bangkok's 10 million noise-makers. Don't sleep on the restaurant, either. It's quiet but truly exceptional.

Villa Song Saigon: "Few days to relax in busy HCM"

"We are a family of 2 kids and it's our second stay in villa song and definitely not the last one. We booked a room and got finally a nice upgrade to a bigger sanctuary room downstairs so easier to handle with the stroller and kids . They have a nice swimming pool and our son enjoyed it at least once to twice per day , The restaurant is super good , Breakfast is served all day long , and the choice is super wide with Vietnamese and western food - my fav of the stay : banh cuon and my husband : croissant sandwich, fruits are fresh and tasty, For the evening, they have a more westerner food menu which is super good but don't expect Vietnamese food - We were there during their Singaporean cook host week and we tried some of his best dish - my fav is the dessert aloe and jelly - lemon sherbet :) On top of that the staff is awesome , super nice and would do everything for u to get a nice stay . We used their baby sit service 2 eve without any issue , And last day I treat myself with a spa offer they had : scrub and facial , it was very well done and relaxing ... and would do it again next time ! Pros: nice swimming pool, adorable staff , food quality , spa available and kids friendly (babysit / babycot) Cons : in D2 so not in city center but u can always enjoy a 15min boat ride right into the center and avoid busy traffic We will definitely come back!!!"

Neeleshwar Hermitage: "Peace and tranquility by a beautiful beach on the Arabian Sea"

If it is total relaxation you are after then this hotel is perfect. The massage facilities are superb and very reasonably priced, breakfast on the beach or dinner watching the magnificent sunsets all add to the enjoyment. With ample space in the pleasant grounds for all guests to either be alone or in the company of fellow guests, this hotel offers a totally relaxing experience. All villas are superbly equipped, we were positioned very close to the swimming pool which for us was perfect.

Reverie Siam: "Fabulous honeymoon stay!"

My husband and I spent 5 nights at this hotel and it was wonderful. The hotel has been opened less than a year and feels immaculate. There are so many positives about this place. The design of the hotel and gardens, the very conscientious staff that make you feel special, the high quality finish of the rooms and the superb breakfasts. The hotel is not crowded and so the swimming pool area is very private we often had the pool entirely to ourselves. A nice touch was a free glass of wine or bubbly during some of our evening meals. There was live music on 3 nights of the five we stayed which we enjoyed. We had a fantastic chef board one evening in the restaurant which was delicious. The only thing that would make this hotel even better would perhaps be spa or massage treatments. There aren't fantastic spas in the area and as the hotel has such pretty gardens that would have been lovely. A wonderful hotel, stay here you won't regret it!

Locavore: "Exceptional"

"Recommend bubs chef friend as the place to go if you love top end food and service. WOW he didn't let us down . Booked the 7 course kind and ended up doing 13 courses. Outstanding food and professional wait staff. I'm going to say it out loud. "" this restaurant overall out did my Ramsay's experience on Hospital rd London"". This is truly a food lovers total package . Not cheap but in saying that what is produced here isn't cheap wear ever you are. Thank you Locavore for an amazing lunch. PS. Cocktails are pretty good to boot"

Inle Princess Resort: "Brilliant"

We can not say enough about this excellent hotel, had the best of food, service, rooms, views but the arrival into it is simply stunning Tucked away from the main lake, on its own part of the lake is a peaceful set up Highly recommended

Cheong Fatt Tze – Blue Mansion: "Dinner at the Blue Mansion- Wonderful"

"The menu and service was superb! The place is quiet and full of character. My father had difficult to manage the stairs to get up to the restaurant, so the managers arranged for us to have dinner downstairs. we were served hand and foot by our incredibily humber and eager to serve waiter Imran, who was both polite, discrete. I don't recall the last time we had such wonderful service, Imran was great! My father who is very high maintenance, even complimented Imran and said, its wonderful to be served by someone who understands the etiquette of the table. When we were leaving, we shocked by Imrans humility when after running up and down the stairs all evening and attending to our every need, said ""please forgive me if I made any mistake serving you tonight! Fine dining and fine service with an excellent menu and a place full of character! Stayed December 2016, traveled with family"

The Island Lodge: "Peaceful place with great food"

"We stayed at the Island Lodge in January 2017 for three nights. A wonderful, peaceful spot with fantastic service and food! We were glad that we chose a riverview room and enjoyed watching life pass us by on the Mekong. The transfer from the airport took about 2 hours. We took a coconut farm tour offered by the lodge that was great, a combo of a boat ride and bicycling through back paths around the island that had little or no traffic. We also had the same guide, Kuy (not sure how he spelled it) take us across the river to the small city of My Tho. We took bikes and visited the Buddhist temple and the fruit market and got a good taste of Vietnam life in an area with few Westerners. The Island Lodge would be a nice stop before or after the chaos of Ho Chi Minh City. Stayed January 2017, traveled as a couple"
