Locavore: "Bravo les chefs"

Review by: Vanelloppe | Source: Trip Advisor
Every year when I visit Bali I always wanted to dine in Locavore, but it was so difficult to book a table. This year we are lucky to get a table for lunch, and we are not disappointed despite of high expectations! The ingredients are very good quality, and we see their efforts to find out many local herbs and vegetables and cook in their way, with perfect occidental culinary skills and amazing combinations. Definitely come back next time when I visit Bali.

Tugu Lombok: "Excellent Hotel"

Review by: anairi8 | Source: Trip Advisor
"I use TripAdvisor a lot to check hotels reviews but rarely I write a review myself. This time I decided to write one since I really think Tugu was an exceptional place. I travel a lot for work so I know many hotels all over the world and I have to say that the service we got here was the best I have ever had. Everyone there, from management to waiters to housekeeping tried always to satisfy all our needs, and traveling with 5 kids I have to say that we had a lot of needs ... They were always helpful, always smiling. What a nice 4 days we had...thank you! The hotel itself and the surroundings are amazing (one of the most beautiful beaches I have been in Indonesia, and by far better that any of the Bali ones). Food was delicious too. Indeed a 5 stars hotel. If you plan to go to Lombok I highly recommend this hotel."

Cheong Fatt Tze – Blue Mansion: "Gorgeous place"

Review by: chikkio | Source: Trip Advisor
We absolutely loved this place. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. Rooms very clean and had great designs. Location was good as all sights in Georgetown were within walking distance. We definitely recommend this to anyone who doesn't mind spending a bit more to enhance their experience in Penang :)

The Island Lodge: "Excellent"

Review by: mathiaslheritier | Source: Trip Advisor
"We really enjoyed our stay at The Island Lodge. We went in December for our holidays, and our experience was by far the best. We can't say thank you enough for your immaculate service, and very beautiful hotel. The food was delicious, good cuisine with a french touch, mixed with the traditional Vietnamese gastronomy. We recommend The Island Loge 100%. You will certainly enjoy your stay there, I know we did! Stayed December 2016, traveled as a couple"

Cuca: "WOW"

Review by: Oh_Sweet_Life | Source: Trip Advisor
"Place Located in Jimbaran. A very secluded area as most of the driver is not familiar of the small road. Ambiance Perfect! They have 3 types of seating area: Dining Room, Bar and Garden. If you want to see the art creation of your food, i suggest you seat at the Bar area as that's where you can see what Chef does! Like 'live show'. Garden seating has a good ambiance but we didn't seat outside because of mosquito (that's just me). Dining room has a semi private arrangement as each table has curtains in between other tables which is a great idea! It has a very homey-cozy feeling! Service They have more than enough staff to assist you. They serve with smile and very warmth. You can feel that they are proud of their work and that they enjoy it! Food Here comes the bomb! We ordered the Chef's Tasting Menu and it's soooo worth it! The creativity and intricate workmanship is WOW! From presentation to food taste is just the best! My fave was the number 3, Fish! (It's in the photo - looks like a flower). The food that excites me the most was the dessert called Bali Breakfast (in photo- looks like egg)! It's something you MUST order! The coconut and mango flavor with the crusty (granola i think) is perfectly combined into an amazing dessert! This place has thought of everything from the start to the end of your dining experience. They'll give you something to start of to enhance your palette and a drink at the end for digestion...just WOW! It's one side of Bali you've never experienced before and it's really worth every $$$ and time. Definitely highly recommended to visit and try when in Bali. Not recommended for family with kids. I'll be back to try the other dish on my next Bali Trip!"

Tandjung Sari: "Wonderful old style Bali hotel"

Review by: Fiona M | Source: tripadvisor.com
We loved our week at the Tandjung Sari - barefoot luxury - that we didn't leave the hotel all week - except for a quick shop up the road at Biasa. And we're going back. Beautiful craftworks, hand made pavers and pool tiles, fresco style painted outdoor pavilion.

Golden Buddha Beach Resort: "Heavenly eco-resort at the end of the world on a dream island"

Review by: Fausta N | Source: Trip Advisor
We were absolutely sensational Baan Mangon! Best location, sensationally beautiful 28 beach villas, all of which include private individuals, which are rented from the hotel. The clubhouse / restaurant and reception with shop are like old colonial villas from Indochina with many antiques. One beach is completely deserted and miles long, the other in a child-friendly lagoon. At low tide you can walk in far into paddling in flight with a kayak in the Mangrovenflüsschen and watch monkeys. On this beach it has the pizza hut and lounge chairs with umbrellas. So I do not have to eat pizza in Thailand (but they are great!), I ordered a Thai Pèicknick in the restaurant and have it delivered to the scooter. The whole resort is simply sensational, a dream, absolutely amazing breathtakingly beautiful! All eating organic, much planted himself, every day four new starters and main dishes fresh. Perfect!

David’s Kitchen: "Six star restaurant"

Review by: Maria B | Source: Trip Advisor
"David's Kitchen goes the extra mile plus a dozen miles more. Truly amazing experience from the moment we entered and met David and all the wonderful staff. Being seated at a table with a personalised greeting card and receiving a rose to celebrate your date night are just a few of the things that David's Kitchen do to make your evening truly fantastic and memorable. It's a beautiful place, fancy yet easy going. The staff are meticulously well trained - so professional yet so warm and friendly, just like a big family. And the food is just as wonderful! The veloute of yellow Japanese pumpkin soup was the best we've ever tasted. The duck breast was cooked to perfection and served with the finest mash. Totally recommend the sticky toffee pudding, made with love by David's wife Prom who's the pastry chef in charge of all the desserts. Great wine list at reasonable prices too. Whether you're a foodie or not, this gem is not to be missed. It'll make your time in Chiang Mai that extra bit special."

Villa Song: "Beautiful location, lovely hotel and staff."

Review by: Robin M | Source: Trip Advisor
Stayed here for a wedding. Hotel is stunning and right on the river. Can get a river taxi into District 1 included in your hotel price which takes around 15minutes. Staff very helpful and always serve with a smile. Food was amazing. There's a great bar 5 minutes walk away called Saigon Outcast.
