4 Rivers Floating Lodge: "Peace"

"The whole thing is very well done and works. I must say that we spent 4 nights and it was very relaxing. In bed by 9.30pm and up at rhe crack of 8.30am, well I do like to relax. The food was simple and very tasty and well prepared, also more of any item if required. The waterfall boat trip was wonderful, the crew kept apologizing for the lack of water, but the falls were running and it was just right for swimming. My only complaint is that the swimming steps from the river are just round bars and these are painful on the feet when getting out. A great place for a few days to recharge you battery and sole. Stayed March 2017, traveled as a couple"

Satri House: "Special & memorable"

"This hotel was absolutely fabulous in every way..wonderful colonial decor, each cranny full of authentic artefacts. Staff were lovely and attentive.. Food delicious We spent our 17 year anniversary there & they pulled out the stops to make it special. All in all one of our favourite hotels ever & will definitely go back."

Noel Rodrigo’s Leopard Safaris: "Amazing nature, food and hospitality"

"We arrived by a perfect flight into Yala on the day as a large group for a friends birthday celebration holiday. Noel was the perfect host, the staff and team were hospitable, knowledgeable and friendly. We did 4 safari's, over 2 large lots in the national park, spotted 8 leopards (one for a good half hour posed around a waterhole for perfect photos) and discovered many other birds and wildlife. The food was magical, different every meal, great vegetarian mixed with a touch of meat, no-one was left hungry, a great introduction to Sri Lankan food, it was hard to match after we left. Beds are comfortable, flushing toilets and outdoor showers added to the Safari. The honeymoon tent is aircon and glam so jump into that one, otherwise stay cool in the hammock provided outside your tent. I can honestly say, as an animal and bird lover, this was the highlight of my and my husbands trip, I not have the safari bug and want to do so many more! The best Safari in the region."

Tugu Bali: "Great experience to stay in Tugu"

"A very beautiful place with great food and service. You can enjoy the breakfast and free afternoon tea every where you want, like in the garden or on the beach at tugu hotel. The staff there are all very professional. Stayed February 2017, traveled as a couple"

The Governor’s House: "memorable stay"

Soon as we arrived with our friends from a exhausted flight, the GM take care of us. She invited us on their mini sunset cruise to chilled with some drinks and tapas on the Mekong river. Wonderful. The next day a dinner with a traditional music and apsara dancer organized in the garden surprised our group. The rooms are wonderful decorated with all original antiques and luxery amenities. We decided to short our Siem Reap stay to stay one more night in this feeling home mansion before our flight back. We loved our stay and the very helpful staff. Try the food...

Tugu Bali: "Paradise in Bali"

We spent the last night here after a three week holiday travelling around Bali. This was a birthday treat and the icing on my cake! It is a very stylish and unqiue hotel full of the most beautiful pieces of Balinese artworks. Our room was on the second floor overlooking koi ponds with the sea in the background. It was a stunning room with a gorgeous sunken bath and a huge fabulously comfortable bed. The staff and service were amazing as was the food. We cannot recommend this hotel highly enough and will certainly come back.

Rahai’i Pangun: "WOW Borneo tour was fabulous!!!! Well organized and lots of fun"

I really enjoyed the tour in central Borneo with Gayle of WOW Borneo. We traveled by boat on a large river and toured lakes off the river by canoe. We saw orangutans and monkeys butterflies and unique plants. We traveled to remote lakes tea stained from the ancient forest in the late afternoon the reflections were breathtaking. The food was delicious and accommodation very adequate and clean for being in such a remote place. We toured villages that did not have tourists visit on a regular basis and were welcomed with the biggest smiles. The tour was 5 days and we covered a lot of ground a great experience for the adventure seeker attempting to be Behr Grils.

VILLA SONG SAIGON: "Old School Elegance"

"Wow - what a place. Right on the river. To catch a ride to the heart of District 1, there is no shuttle bus. There is a shuttle boat - a speed boat. You ride up the river, past all the barges and little tugboats - past all the major waterfront development as you approach the heat and noise of Ho Chi Minh City. Villa Song is located in an exclusive old part of the city, tucked away on its own - by the water. We had a room overlooking the river. It was amazing to look out and see a container barge floating by so close. The restaurant is world class in my opinion. The chef has some great ideas about ingredients and presentation. The pool is a bit small and cramped but who cares. This is Saigon, baby. The staff were friendly and professional. We had a late checkout - no problem. The experience overall was flawless. Highly recommended. "

Nam Bo Boutique Hotel: "Great hotel"

Excellently located hotel, right by the river front. The rooms (suites) are super - very large and stylishly furnished, and makes for a very comfortable and enjoyable stay. The surprise New Year's gifts were totally unexpected and a really wonderful thought. The breakfast was the best we had on our trip - we could have spent an hour just eating - with a huge selection of dishes to order and a panoramic view of the river. The free welcome drink is also excellent - can choose anything from their drinks menu including cocktails etc.

Golden Buddha Beach Resort: "Just… wow!"

"Speechless. Following a 3 hour drive north from the airport and then getting onto a small boat at a dock in the middle of nowhere, you get ferried away from the mainland for an hour and a half. Making your way past small islands and following a remote coast of golden sand you arrive on the beach where you wade through the warm shallow clear water to get to the jeep. Being whisked off to a remote hut, there is just your hut which is about 50 mtrs away from the next. Peace. Quiet. Nature. Sand. Sun. Remoteness. 100 mtrs from the beach, the views are endless. Waking up, going to sleep, just the noise of birds, bugs, a dog in the distance, monkeys and waves crashing. (...)Taking a canoe down at the other end, it's possible to paddle out to another small island off shore. Or walk around to one of the other very tiny resorts. If you want nightlife, shopping, clubs, bars, socialising, fine food, luxury accommodation, cleanliness and an abundance of modern comforts - this is not for you. If you want adventure, solitude, being with nature, charming and quaint cabins, beach and being undisturbed then book straight away. I would love to go back."
