Cuisine Wat Damnak: "Superb fine dining restaurant"

We booked this restaurant for valentines evening following many positive comments from friends who live in Siem Reap and we were not disappointed. What a wonderful place this is. We each had one of the fixed menus and the food was definitely Michelin star level, we couldn't praise the chef enough. We had a lovely dry rose wine and met the chef later in the evening. It was without doubt a most memorable evening. I had 6 courses, my husband had 7, and with two bottles of wine the bill came to 100 dollars. Thoroughly amazing! We would highly recommend a visit here.

The Island Lodge: "Vietnam"

"Excellent hôtel/ lodge. Emplacement magnifique au bord du Mékong. Calme absolu de la campagne. C’est paisible et envoûtant. Les promenades à vélo proposées dans les alentours sont extraordinaires. Il faut absolument se lever tôt (6h maxi) pour profiter de la vie des vietnamiens ( les marchés pas exemple) et ... de la fraîcheur. Au zénith, l’ombre au bord de la superbe piscine à débordement est très appréciable. Sunset sur le Mekong au bout du ponton privé .... Cuisine au top. La cuisine vietnamienne est peut être un tout petit peu trop occidentalisée. Petit déjeuner remarquable. L’ensemble est excellent et très haut de gamme pour l’endroit. Le personnel est adorable, souriant et efficace. Les hôtes sont charmants. Merci Michel pour les informations anecdotes et connaissances sur le delta. Si vous enchaînez depuis le lodge, privilégiez l’aéroport de CAN ToH qui est aussi loin que celui de Saigon, mais tout petit et ultra rapide pour l’embarquement. "

Hotel Tugu Lombok: "Idilic Tugu"

What a wonderful Aloon Aloon room we chose with a partly outside bathroom - which did tend to get a little wet in parts due to a deluge of rain at times but we had plenty of towels to mop up with if needed - well it was the rainy season-Many rooms to choose from - The hotel is approx an hour and a half from the airport - but the last half an hour has very winding roads which have amazing views but I felt quite sick sitting in the back of their private taxi - the driver was very good and stopped for me when needed - on the return journey I sat in the front and was much better - we had a lovely welcome from Mr Lin - we sat in front of the wonderful pond with the fish to greet us - Mr Lin let me feed them a few times which was very nice of him - All the staff were very helpful indeed and special thanks to Ellie - sorry if spelt name wrong - enjoyed our chats etc - I couldn't believe the vast grounds of the hotel - you have to see it to believe it - and two amazing swimming pools -not the best beach Ive been to swim in - but you could get their dragon boat which was fun over to the Gillies for half or a day - so comfortable - I could go on and on about Tugu but all in all had a fabulous time so again thank you to everyone - just one thing - the hotel does not have hair dryers which I did find out about before I come after reading trip advisor so I took my own - but it wouldn't hurt to have one for the ladies.

Sanak Retreat Bali: "Paradise"

We spent (only) one night in this paradise. Everything is just perfect, and worth the price they ask for it. Compared to other hotel we stayed in, we were particularly impressed by the attention they put un every single detail (closing your curtains in the room while you are having dinner for instance :-)). We would recommend it.

Neeleshwar Hermitage: "Fabulous Beach Hotel"

Having spent 11 days sightseeing / touring the Golden Triangle further North we really enjoyed our 8 days of relaxation at this delightful beach hotel; its rustic nature but with all the mod cons situated within coconut groves beside a beach that goes on for miles with hardly a soul in sight was heaven. As an eco resort it has no plastic and the water for drinking was absolutely safe; food experience superb and staff outstanding, also the onsight tailor who was tremendous value. We will return.

Misool Eco Resort: "Little paradise resort"

The place is close to a lot of very nice diving spots. Staff is nice and friendly, food is good and the overall atmosphere will make your trip unique. Highly recommended. The trip is long but it's worth!

The River Resort: "The best of the best"

This is a great resort. My wife and I travel a bit and this was is the finest place we have stayed. We were there for 2 nights. Fantastic views from our room of the Mekong and while having meals. The reception arranged for a nice tuk tuk driver to take us to the nearby ruins of Champasak and to Champasak to have lunch on the river and to see the early 20th century 'palace' for the king of Champasak. The food at the hotel and the staff are great. We arrived at the Pakse bus terminal and a vehicle from the resort was there pick us up. We hope to return here, just to relax.

Supanniga Eating Room: "Delicious casual restaurant"

All of the dishes were delicious. The fried beef jerky with kaffir leaves was very interesting and addictive. The masaman curry and another red curry also both excellent. It's a casual place but very tasty food. Would return and recommend if in the Thonglor area.

Muang La Lodge: "A stunning gem in a remote location"

"This unheralded, stunning resort is a great reward for the traveller who is prepared to undertake a relatively long road journey. Though arduous, that journey is not without some great experiences and vistas. Guided trips would be essential to help reveal the highlights along the way. Planning an extra night stay might appeal to those seeking even more pampering after their endeavours. The swimming pool is wonderful. The hot spring baths and massage service offer other opportunities for indulgence. The accommodation is beautiful and well designed.The beds are sumptuous. The river views are majestic. The restaurant provides fantastic meals, particularly the set five course dinner. The variety of tasty ethnic and local dishes each night was unique. Breakfast was excellent and personalized. The provision of gluten free pancakes demonstrated not only skills at improvisation but also determination to ensure guest satisfaction. For me it was a real bonus and very touching. The walk to the nearby village was great but knowing precisely where and how to access the exciting bamboo raft ferry back across the creek is recommended. The service was superb at all levels within the stablishment."

Inle Heritage Stilt Houses: "Superb place , fantastic cause"

Inle Heritage hotel is one of the best boutique hotels in Myanmar. Not only offers superb accommodation (only six stilt bungalows for the guests) in a beautiful environment, but the owner offers every year free courses related to tourism industry to Burmese students from the area. The stuff was sweet and helpful , most of them graduates from hotel's academy. They also produce their own vegetables which they use in the restaurant. By staying here, you also contribute to local community. Highly recommended!
