Inle Heritage Stilt Houses: "Lovely place for lunch"

Review by: Gigibetsy | Source: Trip Advisor
After a busy morning sightseeing we were taken here for lunch. Sitting on the veranda overlooking the boats zipping up and down the canal this is a restful place to have lunch. We had the chicken cooked in coconut juice served wrapped in a banana, wonderful. This was followed by the most wonderful EVER banana cake, out of this world.

Locavore: "Exceptional"

Review by: Hungarian2 | Source: Trip Advisor
"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"

Golden Buddha Beach Resort: "Paradise on earth"

Review by: A TripAdvisor Member | Source: Trip Advisor
"Me and my partner booked GBBR initially for only four days as we hadn't been to the island before but we got a recommendation from a local yoga teacher so we decided to give it a go. After we took a long boat from Kuraburi, we arrived to a pristine little bay welcomed by Golden Buddha team who immediately made us feel at home and showed us around the absolutely stunning resort. It's paradise! We've never seen a beach so long, clean and empty and sea so beautiful! The sand may not be white but this definitely is the most beautiful beach I've ever seen. The resort is also absolutely stunning, with a beautiful restaurant and gorgeous breakfast every morning, drinking fresh coconut juice while overlooking the sea :) Saturday nights are magical, the resort organised a bonfire on the beach with cocktails and then the most delicious seafood BBQ. The accommodation consists of different styled wooden houses, each of them with a unique design and hidden around so you always feel like you're alone in nature. What makes the whole experience even more special is the whole team at the resort, and especially Massi and Teresa , who manage the resort and took care of absolutely every single request we had and always made us feel like special guests. So the initial 4 days ended up being three weeks and we didn't want to leave even then."

Manda De Laos: "mouthwatering and amazing"

Review by: hansNetherlands | Source: Trip Advisor
The food here is mouth watering. Sure, it is not the cheapest place in Luang Prabang but you get spoiled and life will never be the same....The crispy rice saled and the pork ribs are highly recommended!

David’s Kitchen: "Best dining in Thailand! One of a kind"

Review by: Emilie D | Source: Trip Advisor
This was by far one of the best meals we ate in Thailand! The cocktails were exceptional, and the food was delicious! More importantly, David was such an interesting man, and it was an absolute pleasure to meet him and hear his story! You will feel special from the moment you step in the place. THIS IS A MUST!

Satri House: "Calme et raffinement."

Review by: Robert M | Source: Trip Advisor
"Inutile de chercher mieux. vous êtes au bon endroit. Tout est dans la recherche du détail et de l'authenticité. Pas le luxe absolu, mais un parfait raffinement que l'on trouve que très rarement. La chambre (321) est spacieuse, avec une très belle vue. Petit déjeuner parfait, lui aussi très ""raffiné"", un peu ""à l'anglaise"". De notre séjour au Laos, c'est certainement le meilleur hébergement que nous ayons visité parmi les très beaux hôtels disponibles. On recommande sans hésiter et on en profite pour féliciter l'ensemble du staff qui rend le séjour inoubliable."

Manda De Laos: "Fantastic food and location"

Review by: Rebecca B | Source: Trip Advisor
We stayed right across the road from this restaurant and so decided to splash out a bit and have a meal here. The restaurant setting was beautiful. We walked in without a reservation and were given a table right by the lily pond - however it is low season at the moment and we went quite early (around 6pm). The food was superb! The starters were definitely the highlight - we had the traditional sausage and the papaya salad with melting pork both of which were delicious!! It's definitely expensive for SE Asia, but we really enjoyed our meal here and would go back. We paid around £45 for two courses and a cocktail each for two people.

Tugu Malang: "Un hôtel musée"

Review by: thvillotte | Source: Trip Advisor
"Le propriétaire présente sa collection d'objets d'art asiatique. Les objets sont disséminés dans l'hôtel. C'est magnifique. Le personnel est d'une très grande gentillesse. Au petits soins. Ne pas manquer le thé en fin d'après-midi accompagné d'une quantité de desserts merveilleux. Pour ceux qui arrivent en train, à 5 mn à pied de la gare."
