Samanea Beach Resort: "Perfect tranquility"

Review by: Turnedoutniceagain | Source: Trip Advisor
"We absolutely loved our stay in this beautiful, peaceful resort. It is perfect relaxation. The room was huge and perfectly secluded in the lush tropical grounds with plants strategically placed to ensure maximum privacy. The bed was super comfortable, there was TV, mini bar, tea + coffee and lovely open air (but very private) bathroom. Well serviced daily with clean towels etc. The swimming pool was beautiful and not crowded, really quiet and relaxing in a natural setting. Pool towels are provided every day, you just pick them up from a basket by the side of the pool. There is also a large carp pond next to the pool, the carp put a real show at times leaping about. Quite entertaining if you get bored of watching the amazing sunsets. The food was excellent with a good choice of both local and Western, although you may find the menu a bit limited if you are there for a long stay. The Kampot Pepper ice cream is delicious! Breakfast is a la carte, there was no problem or extra charge for ordering more than one dish. All the staff were wonderful, really helpful and friendly. If you want to sit up late drinking and partying, or need to have nightly entertainment laid on, this is not the place for you. It is a beautiful, relaxing resort for a total de-stress. The peaceful town of Kep (which has a beautiful sandy beach perfectfor swimming) is just a short trip away via tuk tuk, which the hotel will book for you."

Beautiful quiet hotel. Lovely food and great staff. Wonderful sunset views from the deck near the bar. Funky lampshades and quirky statues. The wine cellar dinner was very special. Looking forward to returning.

Rachamankha: "Exceptional hotel with a great restaurant"

Review by: Julia H | Source: Trip Advisor
We have stayed at the hotel for a few nights while visiting Chiang Mai. Location is great and within walking distance (15min) to many attractions that the city has to offer. Room was beautifully decorated and had all the amenities you needed except they don't give you conditioner so bring your own. I would highly recommend eating at the restaurant, we had snacks and dinner and the food and service were great. Would definitely stay again.

Samuay & Sons: "Number 1"

Review by: Jonky1 | Source: Trip Advisor
"Fabulous! Chef/ owner trained in San Fransico for 2 years, and has worked at an array of influential restaurants and hotels. Talented and gifted, his dishes are extraordinarily delicious, and put together with mindful thought and experience. Udon Thani is very fortunate to have such a master of food and will undoubtably be launched into celebrity status soon. Restaurant is tastefully decorated, I only wish the seats were padded, and menu had pictures. Staff very professional all wearing matching uniforms. It is only a matter of time, this restaurant will be rated number one (1) in Udon Thani!"

Sea Dance Resort: "Awesome holiday!"

Review by: Adri N | Source: Trip Advisor
"We we're a family of five staying in a two bedroom pool villa for 10 days in August. We had an awesome time at Seadance Resort. It is a secluded and tranquil place. We rented scooters for the time we were there thus could explore most of the island's beaches, waterfalls, restaurants etc with ease. That gave us the best of both worlds - busy days and coming to the serenity of Seadance in the evenings. Some days we just spent at the pool drinking awesome cocktails (passionfruit mojito was my favorite) and relaxing. Free piña colada ice lollies was a bonus. Friendly and helpful staff made our stay even more pleasant. Thank you especially to Faith, Helen and Poy for adding that more personal touch to your already awesome service as well. We will definitely return to Seadance resort in the future."

Satri House: "Absolute oasis of calm and tranquility"

Review by: Gillian B | Source: tripadvisor.com
After the hustle of Hanoi we flew into Luang Prabang and spent 3 nights at the Satri House Hotel, it was superb. In easy walking distance from the town centre, fantastic beautifully furnished room and lovely grounds with charming pool. The staff were also first class --- I can't think of a single criticism. We have travelled in Indochina before and use trip advisor regularly but this is the first time I have ben moved to write a review ---it was excellent.

Tugu Bali: "Amazing property"

Review by: lesserodyssey5 | Source: Trip Advisor
Very unique experience staying in this hotel. Quick walk to the surf breaks at Batu Balong, Old Man's and Echo Beach/Pererenan from the lovely beach area on the property. Food in the restaurant is a bit more expensive than other options in the area but well worth the price.

Reverie Siam: "Amazing!"

Review by: rogerandersonuk | Source: tripadvisor.com
"We stayed at this hotel on our Honeymoon in September 2014. I would write a long review about how good this hotel was but you will see there are countless others already! All I will say is our stay here was amazing, from the fantastic villa to the brilliant breakfast, great pool, delicious evening menu, lovely drinks and even great entertainment. 100% recommended"

4 Rivers Floating Lodge: "A beautiful place, not to be missed"

Review by: twinter808 | Source: Trip Advisor
I was really looking forward to our stay at 4 Rivers Floating Lodge, and I wasn't disappointed. The staff were so welcoming, the tents immaculate and the food superb. We were lucky in that it was very quiet when we visited, but it was also rather wet! However, the service more than made up for the weather and, as I have already said, the food was excellent.

David’s Kitchen: "To celebrate my 50th birthday"

Review by: simonharris67 | Source: Trip Advisor
The food was excellent from starter through to desserts. All the staff were very friendly and attentive. The owner (David) walked around every table talking to the guests which was a nice touch. The restaurant was very popular on the night we went so the atmosphere was great. We stayed in Chiang Mai for 4 nights and this was the best food and atmosphere by far. We would definitely recommend this restaurant to others.
