David’s Kitchen: "Perfect dinner in Chiangmai"

The food was amazing! I️ had the duck and it was cooked perfectly. David was so friendly and he even recommended some restaurants to us in Phuket. This is a first class restaurant!

Satri House: "Unique hotel with lovely staff"

The Satri House is an unusual French colonial style property with lots of beautiful art pieces. The one downside is no TV if you require it. However there is a lovely sitting room with books. The breakfasts are beautifully made to order with homemade jams. The staff couldn't be more helpful. There are 2 pools and lovely beautifully tended grounds.

Muang La Lodge: "Improbable et parfait"

"Trouver un endroit aussi beau et avec une restauration aussi étonnante, dans cette ville, c'était assez improbable. Et pourtant.... L'accueil du manager Raphaël est très chaleureux, le staff est là pour vous donner plus que ce que pouviez espérer. On est très vite bien, même très bien dans ce petit coin de paradis. Mais rien est dit tant qu'on est pas passé à table. Là aussi, on peut se lâcher sur le superlatifs. OK, on le sait, au Laos on mange très bien. Mais là, c'est encore un ton au dessus. On ne peut dire que Bravo, au site, au staff, au restaurant, et à Raphaël qui font que, grâce à eux, au moment du départ on espère très vite y revenir. Une dernière pensée pour Raphaël et le village de Beaufort (France) qui fait partie de nos plus beaux souvenirs d'enfance."

Satri House: "Excellent, charming, classy"

Satri House is a tranquil, beautiful boutique hotel that oozes the charm of a property with a place in history - it has texture and character in a way that many other luxury hotel chain offerings at several times the price tag don't get close to. The staff are very friendly and the food had some real hits, as well. It is the rare breed that hits a sweet spot between price and feel, and so comes highly recommended from this humble traveler. (Protip - go across the street out back and eat at Manda de Laos, a fantastic new restaurant no one seems to know about)

The Village House: "An amazing place – absolultely beautiful and run by the loveliest people"

"The Village House is an easy and traffic-free 40-45 minute drive from Kuching at the foot of Mount Santubong. It's absolutely beautiful - it's clear the owners have put tremendous thought and effort into creating a relaxing little oasis, and they've accomplished as much. The grounds are beautiful - very green and very relaxing with a luxury, boutique-y feel - when you see it, you can't believe how little they charge to stay here! The rooms are immaculate with gorgeous four-poster beds and well thought-out décor. The hotel is really, really gorgeous, but the highlight is the service - they went WAY above and beyond anything I've ever experienced. We forgot a backpack, so the owner lent us one - and not only that, but very kindly stocked it with bug spray and band-aids for our climb up Santubong! Then, when we got a little stranded and couldn't get a taxi back, the hotel chef came to pick us up - couldn't believe how helpful they were. We did two activities while we were here (climbed Santubong and a day at Bako) and they organized everything for us at VERY reasonable prices. We spent no time at all making our own arrangements, which made the weekend super enjoyable and relaxing. I couldn't recommend this place more highly. We've been to the Kuching area three times and this is by far and away the best place we've stayed - and in all my travels, the best customer service I've ever received from a hotel! "

Sea Dance Resort: "Good for families. Good service."

Had a great time. Not at the busy area. So very relexing. Frendly staff. A taxi to chaweng is 300 bhat anb takes 15 minuts. Buy all the transport from the rentals at the exit to the left. Very honest family. Wi fi doesnt work when cloudy.

The Island Lodge: "Mekong trip or Saigon escape? This is your place"

"When you arrive on the small road you may wonder if you got lost, in fact you just found a secret gem! Beautiful surroundings (pool and river on one side, gorgeous garden on the other side) Tasteful design and decoration everywhere around Lovely and helpful team Nice mix of Vietnamese and French food Large choice of activities/tours to visit the area by boat, bike or scooter. We will definitely be back for the Mekong and for the Hotel!"

The Apsara Rive Droite: "Wonderful hotel with first-class service from friendly staff"

"Everything about the Aspara Rive Droitte is just right. Mr Ai and Mr Hann (the management team) and Mr Ivan (the owner) went out of their way to make our stay wonderful and all the other staff were very friendly and helpful. The location is perfect, with the hotel's dedicated Aspara Queen taking 60 seconds to cross the Nam Khan and deliver you to the heart of Luang Prabang - and, conversely, escape to the more serene side of the Nam Khan. Rooms were spacious and comfortable, and breakfast wonderful. The pool is a welcome relief from the heat of Laos, with the bar just a few steps away. After 5 days at this home-from-home, we were sad to leave. We hope to go back"

MesaStila: "Perfect place to find peace"

"I recently had a solo stay at MesaStila and loved every minute of it. The villas are spread out amongst a coffee plantation so you get a real sense of privacy. The villas are huge and well appointed. Service by all staff members is excellent. The spa and Hammam are amazing. The food is healthy and good. I really couldn't fault any aspect of my stay. Stayed November 2016, traveled solo"

VILLA MATHIS: "Excellent time at Villa Mathis"

"My wife and i stayed at La Villa Mathis in Bali and this was one of the best experiences we ever had, not only due to the beauty of the place (it was paradise on earth) but the way the stuff did everything they could in their power to makes us feel home. The prime examples was the great help they provided me to plan for my wife's birthday and they even allowed us to stay longer after the check out time so that we do not stress for our late flight with access non-only to our room but also all the facilities they had on site until before our flight. The highlight of the place were the amenities (different luxuries pools and salons where you can hang out as well as Jacuzzi and massage rooms) but the service with a smile was above and beyond what we ever experienced in any other luxury hotels/villas. A big thanks to the lady at the front who helped us plan every single day of our stay and to the excellent management provided by Frank with the help of his staff.We will definitely come back soon. "
