Satri House: "Just wonderful and charming!"

"Excellent in every way! Top in quality of the rooms decorated with local and colonial furniture, the staff is helpful, the spa was really agreeable, the restaurant is top even if the staff is still lacking a bit of experience in the way of taking orders. For sure, this will be the place I will go back to next time I am in Luang Prabang."

Inle Heritage Stilt Houses: "Only one word: OUTSTANDING! A 5-star experience in Myanmar"

"After our trekking trip from Kalaw to Inle, we desperately needed some comfort, nice food and a good night sleep....and we couldn't have asked for more during our stay at Inle Heritage! This was - by far - the best hotel we have stayed in during our 2-week trip in Myanmar. The rooms are spacious and furnished with great taste and top standards, the view on the lake is stunning. There are only 6 rooms in the complex and the staff is extremely lovely and super-attentive. Importantly...the food is absolutely STUNNING: we had 2 dinners and breakfasts during our stay and everything we ordered was outstanding - I don't think you can find a restaurant with such high quality anywhere else in the country. Vegetables are taken directly from several lovely gardens cultivated by the staff and you can really feel the freshness of every ingredient. There are several other ""luxury"" accommodations on the lake, but none of them offers such a high level of hospitality and food - combined. We would choose Inle Heritage again and again!!! Yes, while in the room, you can hear the noise of boats passing by, but this didn't disturb us at all and the noise significantly decreases after 8-9pm in the evening. The hotel also offers complementary ear plugs so we could sleep like babies during both our nights. Last but not least, Inle Heritage is a non-profit organisation that looks after the cultural and natural heritage of the Inle Region, aiming at developing tourism while maintaining the original Burmese culture and way of life, and respecting nature. Given how quickly the lake is developing (with both pros and cons...) we were very happy to stay in a place that is run in a sustainable way and under these grate values. Don't miss it!!! Stayed December 2016, traveled as a couple"

Chakrabongse Villas: "Off the Scale !"

We arrived in Bangkok with a few hours to discover the city and enjoy the hotel. Wow - there are not enough words except to say Thank you Paul Walker at Secret - Retreats - what a place and what an amazing hotel. This is not a hotel its an experience and without doubt the best place to stay in Bangkok ! A royal palace with a difference, ooozing style, charm and service you cannot ask for anything better ! Thank you xxx

Mrauk U Princess Resort: "Excellent hotel resort"

"It's a long ride up river to Myauk U but worth it. The resort is a welcome sight when you get there. Rooms (or rather villa) are huge, almost a villa, in some interpretation of traditional style. Very relaxing with the lotus ponds. Staff are wonderful. The on-premise restaurant is very good. If you are not an early riser, ask for a room away from the river as the boats are noisy and start early. A few words of advice: Just don't take boxed food to go, or if you do, do not order the prawns."

Amata Lanna: "Great place to stay in Chiangmai"

"We stayed at the Amata Lanna for three days. It is a small and pleasant boutique hotel. There is a swimming pool for just 12 rooms! It is very refreshing to go for a swim in the evening after a day under the hot Thailand sun. The staff are all very friendly and helpful, they gave us fresh fruit juice when we checked in, and was able to give us good direction to the nearby restaurants and attractions. The room was very well designer and in perfect condition. We were happily surprised by how big the room was, and it was very quiet at night. Will definetly stay here again, if I make it back to Chiangmai!"

Tugu Lombok: "beautiful resort"

another tugu hotel that i visited in this last 2 years. tugu lombok take you back to old city of lombok, ampenan.. with beautiful panorama and beach. sit and relax for the sun rise and walk further to the other side of the beach for sun set. even 1.5 hours drive and far from airport , but easily reach near from pelabuhan bangsal that you can spend your day to 3 gili islands..

SEEDS Restaurant & Lounge: "What a Culinary Experience! One of my favorite memories of Yangon"

"During our recent trip to Myanmar, we enjoyed our first luncheon at the newly opened Seeds Restaurant in Yangon. What a great welcome to Yangon! The arrival experience was breathtaking, with a very impressive interior design and a great view over the Inya Lake, and a Lotus Pont right in front of the stunning gardens. The Seeds Restaurant offers a fine dining experience on the highest level, with a very elegant table setup and custom-designed chinaware that perfectly pairs with the food. In fact, we enjoyed our experience so much that we actually came back again after 2 days to dine again at Seeds. I wish to offer a big compliment to the service team, because they offered such attentive and professional service under the guidance of Lucia. And of course, the food offered such a highlight to the whole experience, which was prepared by the award-wining Micheline star Chef Felix and his team. Being a retired hotelier, it was such a delight and a gourmet experience on the highest level. I highly recommend dining here – it is worth every penny for such an excellent experience…one to be remembered!"

Tugu Bali: "Beautiful Tugu"

There is a delightful languor that hangs over the Hotel Tugu. Canggu is laid back and beachy and casual but the hotel exists in its own little bubble of languid splendor. It takes a little while to surrender yourself to the requisite level of sensual abandon to truly appreciate the place, but try. A cup of ginger or cinnamon tea served in a celadon green tea cup on the veranda whilst you nibble delicious Balinese sweets, a swim in the sparkling pool adorned with fountains or (if you are lucky enough) a refreshing plunge in your own private pool, a long shower or soak in your semi open-air bathroom, while the carp in the adjoining pond look on, a short nap in the enormous four poster teak bed followed by an Arak Exotica as the sun sets over the beach and you should be suitably in the zone. If you are feeling moderately adventurous you can wander around the grounds and appreciate the architecture, art and antiques or poke around the cool, dark museum shop for treasures. It's a gorgeous, delightful, sexy place. I was well looked after.

Rachamankha: "Wonderful architecture and good service"

Been there only for dinner as tried to book but room were full. Excellent service in the restaurant. Staff were very attentive but some need to learn more product knowledge. I really like the Thai Chinese mixed with contemporary northern interior design as I already fall in love with this place and promised to visit once again as a hotel guest.
