MesaStila: "Beautiful place and very friendly staff"
We stayed only for 1night and enjoyed an excellent service. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The place is beautiful and peaceful surrounded by coffee plantation. The club house is a well preserved historic mansion of the dutch colonial era. They offer some activities for free for staying guess. We will definitely come back to stay longerVilla Song Saigon: "Great location and the service is first class"
"This hotel worked perfectly for us as a final day/night before flying home. It is a high end boutique hotel, at a good price, in a quiet location right by the water's edge. eating out by the water was very relaxing and although the hotel is on the opposite bank from the main tourist area you can have the best of both worlds as their boat service enabled you to easily cross over with the benefit of a free river tour...The rooms are of a very high standard and the icing on the cake was the standard of service. Whoever we talked to from the staff couldn't have been trying harder to help us. Additionally we had a very late flight out in the evening. They tried very hard to accommodate us having a room for an extended period. When this wouldn't work, as they were full, they provided us showers and access to a room to change in. You can't ask for more and if in Ho Chi Minh City again we will definitely be back. Thank you for making the end to our holiday so good. "Tugu Lombok: "Holiday"
"Se stayed for four nights in this wonderful hotel. The food, the spa, the snorkeling was really nice.,We had a Baghavat Gita room and it was like being back in time. We took the hotel boat for a snorkeling day and saw a turtle. You can choose to have dinner where you like and we chose the beach. We also went to the waterfall and would highly recommend it. "Slow Villas and Spa: "Fantastic"
"Firstly it's worth saying that the team at Slow bent over backwards for us after some changes in circumstances. They were accommodating, polite and creative and assured that we got the best possible outcome. Secondly - the villas themselves are amazing. Beautifully decorated with all the creature comforts but without feeling too ostentatious. The set up means you have total privacy and it really does feel like you have your own little villa but with all the benefits of a hotel booking diving trips/transfers/providing information about the island. Thirdly - use the Spa. The treatments are brilliant and incredibly good value. We had the most amazing time at Slow and would recommend to anyone looking to visit the Gili islands. Stayed March 2017, traveled as a couple"Supanniga Home: "A sanctuary in rural setting"
Suppanniga Home is a private estate which has been converted to a bed and breakfast in a rural setting in Khon Kaen. It is a lovely little place with beautiful landscape and you will experience a slow and relaxing life of Isan. The room is comfortable and well appointed. Breakfast is cooked to order and delivered to your villa. The staff are friendly but I must say not most efficient. There is room for improvement in service. Among many amenities in the room, I appreciated an in-room Nespresso machine. You can have a nice Thai lunch ordered to your room or served in outdoor dining area. The hotel is a bit pricey but it is worth a try.Tugu Lombok: "Authentic !"
Authentic, exotic, very Nice place, people are so kind. We stayed 4 nights with our 6 & 12 kids, they enjoyed the 2 pools, the snorkeling in the sea and the food. The bungalows are spacious, the bathroom Is open on a private garden. The beach is beautiful with a thin white sand both during the day light or for the lunch. We recommend this hotel.Hotel Tugu Lombok: "Incredible Family Holiday Weekend!"
Hotel Tugu Lombok is a truly special and amazing place. There is something beautiful to see in every direction - from the larger than life statues and antiques that create drama and intrigue to the tiny details like the bathroom toiletries that are in clay pots or the boardgames in the dining area that are all made of wood and natural materials. Not an eye sore to be found. The attention to detail in both service and decor makes for a very luxurious experience. The food is fantastic and the presentation is beautiful. We loved both the Indonesian fare and the western options and the healthy breakfast smoothy bowls were delish. The beach is stunning and steps away from the rooms and from the restaurants. You can paddle board and snorkel right right off the beach or take a trip out a little further and see sea turtles. I can't recommend this place highly enough. You won't be disappointed.Tandjung Sari: "This place really is a 5 star hotel…"
We stayed here 1 night before flying back to Europe. Everything about Tandjung Sari is just excellent. The staff are professional and helpfull, they will go the extra mile for you with a smile. The place is perfectly well kept, the bugalows ooze luxe, comfort and classic Balinese style. Food was great, excellent by-the-glass wine choice and do try the banana fritters with icecream. Smooth jazz in the late afternoon to watch the sunset in style. We'll be back for more!JL Studio: "Memorable experience"
"We went to JL Studio to celebrate my girlfriends birthday. The booking process took a while because the phone number is used by the restaurant below and there was some kind of miscommunication, however, all was sorted out. Upon arrival, we were greeted by staff, sat down and offered drinks. I'm quite a talker and it was great that the staff were so friendly and easy to talk to. Our waiter explained to us about the meal that we would soon try. The thing that he made very clear to us is that the progression of meals would be like a journey, that was definitely the perfect way to explain it. Over the 8 or 9 courses, the meal progression was perfectly set up, the flavors were well defined and everything was delicious. When the signature dish came out, the vision was explained to us by Chef Jimmy himself. He stayed a few minutes and spoke to us which was a very nice gesture. I told him that one of my favorite Singaporean dishes was chill crab. He told me that upon my next visit, I'd just need to mention it to him and he would prepare it for me, again, the feeling of importance that he gave me was a nice touch. I'll definitely be going back, hopefully for my own birthday this November."Reverie Siam Pai: "Best of the best"
"I have been to Reverie Siam for dinner every time I went to Pai. And, this time I decided to stay overnight with my family in 2 rooms. That is NOT disappointing at all. I love the place, staff, service and food. My father is in wheelchair and it is convenient for us to get to the room and restaurant. Even there is step at entrance to the restaurant, staff always offered help to carry our wheelchair when my father went up/down the steps. Staff were friendly and genuine. Service is 5-star. The guestroom is spacious, nice decorated and comfortable. There are plenty of rooms for you to put your stuff. The bathroom is spacious, they have shower room and bath tub in separate areas. Water pressure of shower is very good and temperature is stable. They don't have iron for you to borrow. But they offer to iron your cloth for free and it will be done in 5 minutes and delivered to your room. We had dinner at Silhouette restaurant that was lovely as always. The gentleman who runs the restaurant greeted us and recommended food & drinks. Food was delicious and tasty. After dinner, we went to the walking street by hotel's shuttle tuk tuk that was very convenient and when returned, driver came to pick us up on time as per their schedule. I love everything at this hotel and will definitely return for longer stay really soon."
