Rachamankha: "A beautiful & well-situated hotel"
This is a very lovely boutique hotel & we had a lovely stay there. Lovely room, beautifully furnished in old antique furniture with an ambiance of old Chiang Mai yet all modern conveniences. Great location in the old city, a short walk to all attractions there & a short tuk=tuk ride to some great restaurants. Food in hotel was excellent. Lovely swimming pool, friendly staff.Bassac Mekong Delta Cruises by Secret Retreats: "Wonderful experience"
Seeing the sunrise over the Mekong was an unforgettable experience. The food on board the boat is superb and we enjoyed the visit to local villages and seeing the floating market. Our guide, Annie, was excellent too.Inle Princess Resort: "A Magical Place"
From being "driven" into the hotel by a one-leg oarsman to enjoying the palacial dining room, this is a magical place. The contrast between life here, and the abject poverty in Myanmar fomented by years of dictatorship is instructive.Tugu Bali: "Authentique Indonesian Decor"
"Without doubt, the room in Tugu Bali is one of the best we ever stayed. Everything was design to the utmost details to represent Indonesian (Java) beauty. We only stay in the Rejang Suite Ocean view for one night on the last leg of our adventure in Bali. The location in Pantai Batu Bolong, Canggu is rather secluded, but busy with surfers. Perfect for honeymooners. The staff are extremely helpful and polite; from the reception, bellboy, gardener, waiters. Definitely we want to come back and spend more time there "Tugu Lombok: "Best hotel I’ve ever stayed in. Genuinely"
"Where do I start...Hotel Tugu Lombok is quite simply the best hotel I've ever stayed in. I have travelled a fair amount, both for business and holidays, and I have never stayed anywhere quite as special as Hotel Tugu. In the first night of our stay we actually got engaged here, however engagement aside, I adored this place. The staff are wonderful, every single person. Truly lovely, warm and kind people. I can't say enough good things about them! The setting is stunning with a private beach and clear ocean. The two swimming pools are gorgeous and the restaurants with their views are so quiet and peaceful. Quite simply this hotel is an idyllic oasis of calm where you can truly switch off and relax. The grounds are beautiful and so well cared for with hammocks, seating areas, day beds, etc. We stayed in villa 205 which was gorgeous - a giant four poster bed which was the most beautiful and biggest bed I've ever slept in. The outdoor bathroom was stunning and huge, with a massive tub and the coolest overhead rain shower you'll ever see! Breakfast is delicious and served until late, with gorgeous smoothie bowls - about 10 to choose from. Lots of egg dishes, pancakes, waffles, fruit, juices etc! Every afternoon between 4 and 6pm there is afternoon tea in the gardens which is a wonderful touch with homemade cakes, that change every day. We loved everything we ate for dinner, and there is a new page of specials every evening. You can dine on the beach in amongst lots of candles and it feels so private and special. There are paddle boards, snorkels and kayaks for your use - they've thought of everything! One evening we took bikes and rode to a different beach to watch the sunset. It felt like one of the most special moments ever and was quite simply breathtaking. The locals are lovely and showed us the way so there was never a chance we had could get lost. On our final night while we were at dinner and the staff created what can only be described as animal farm made of towels in our bedroom. It was ridiculously good!!!!! They'd also lined the whole path to our villa with flower petals and candles! To sum up we didn't leave the hotel apart from to cycle to sunset. We stayed 4 nights and I did not want to leave. If I could give this hotel 10 stars I would. It was the most luxurious, relaxed and incredible hotel. Cannot recommend enough."Cheong Fatt Tze – Blue Mansion: "Amazing Hotel"
Cheong Fatt Tze - Blue Mansion is an amazing place to stay. The mansion is beautiful, and very well restored. It is fantastic to stay in such an historic building; you feel back in time. The breakfast is ok, and the staff is very friendly and helpful. I loved it.Manukan Island Resort: "Great stay in a hillside villa"
We stayed in a hillside villa. The villa was lovely with two balconies with amazing sea views and access to the private beach. It had all the amenities we needed. The staff are extremely helpful and polite and Ben made sure we had a great experience. The food in the restaurant was good and it has a nice atmosphere in the evening when the day trippers have headed back to KK.. There is also a house band happy to attempt any request you have.. Would definitely recommend a stay here.The River Resort: "Sérénité, luxe & gentillesse"
Très bel endroit, luxueux et très bien entretenu, magnifique jardin, double piscine, spa, quand on en a assez des guesthouses un peu sommaires, endroit idéal pour s'offrir un moment de luxe. Lits géants et salle de bain extérieure et intérieure. Mékong à perte de vue depuis presque tous les bungalows et quelque oiseaux rares dans les arbres.Cuisine Wat Damnak: "A Must Visit"
The food is amazing. If you are planing to come to Siem Reap try to book in advance and get your fantastic Khmer food cuisine experience here you won't be disappointed. Great taste, great service and great host from the owners.Tugu Lombok: "A place you’ll remember forever"
"I've seen quite a few big and luxurious resorts, but I can guarantee that my stay at Tugu Lombok will remain in my mind like one of the most amazings I've ever seen. The beach of the resort is one of the most beautiful white sand beaches I've ever seen, the calm of the resort and the accomodations are amazing, the food is to die for...and the staff is always taking care of you. The villas are simply so beautiful, clean and astonishing that leaving them is quite painful. A paradise on earth."
