4 Rivers Floating Lodge: "Most Amazing Trip of All Time"

"This hidden treasure is amazing. The view was spectacular. I got to experience the life in the nature. The room is very beautiful. The staff and foods are on point. They are very environmental friendly. To save the environment is always their priority. The kayak, the pickup boat the view of the place made me never wanted to leave this wonderful place ever. More than that, they are not just business people, they help the community to be aware of the environmental issue, .... Community saver!"

Inle Princess Resort: "beautiful resort"

A really magical relaxing place. The arrival by boat is a real treat. Be warned : its COLD!. esp in the morning and evening (ask for a blanket!) . Beautiful dining room and bar. Rooms are spacious , if a bit gloomy. But we hardly spent any time there anyway. Way to cold to use the outdoor shower , and oddly no shower over the bath. Do ask the staff to light the fire in the room : amazing briquettes give out fantastic cozy heat. 200 range rooms are quite a way from the lodge , and never get the sun on the balcony/verandah.

Neeleshwar Hermitage: "Peaceful and serene!"

"Neeleswar hermitage takes you to a different era. Free from anything unnatural like plastics and preservatives, the resort is indeed like a hermitage and gives you a much needed stress buster getaway! Rooms : The rooms are spacious and clean and an incense fragrance. The bathroom is as big as the room with a huge bath-tub (I guess not all rooms have a bath tub) with an open roof! The staff offers evening cleaning service where they come in and light a lamp and pull down the drapes and clean the room so that you have a peaceful sleep! Food : The downside was the sea food restaurant was closed due to the rains and we had only one of the restaurant to cater to us. However the food is just awesome! They have only a limited dishes on the menu, but are mouth watering delicious. They also obliged to serve us something off the menu (since my little daughter insisted for it). Hats off to the chef to bring in so much flavor in the simple local dishes. There is no buffet spread but if you appreciate good food and are ok to explore local cuisines, the chef wont disappoint you! Hotel surroundings and activities : The rooms overlook the beach and has a good verandah to sit and gaze into the waves. The beach is not a private one (open to the locals around) but is clean and managed well with security around. The infinity pool is really good is cleaned daily. There is a good view of the beach from the pool and one can spend hours just lazing in the pool. The resort offers spa and ayurvedic therapy with doctors consultation. There are few indoor games and library. There are hammocks and chairs laid out in several spots to just lay back and enjoy nature."

Inle Princess Resort: "A true sanctuary with excellent attention to details"

We stayed in 4 hotels in Yangon, Bagan, Mandalay & Inle in Myanmar. They were all top-notch 5-star and 4-star hotels, but Inle Princess was by far the best among them! The hotel is located on a private canal, away from the lake, which is great, as you won't be bothered by the incessant noise from the motor boats. Once you are near the hotel, a rower comes onboard your boat and starts rowing quietly to the hotel. When you step foot on its premise, you truly enter a sanctuary. The service was intimate and personal - the restaurant staff remembered what we ate the previous night, and made a special dessert for us outside of the menu so that we do not have to eat the same thing twice in a row! The food was delicious, rivalling those of expensive restaurants in major cities. The spa rooms are huge and yet cosy. There are no TV in the rooms, but we take that positively as you really want to take advantage of the culture and activities of the hotel and Inle, to disconnect and not to be distracted

Glenburn Tea Estate: "Beautiful colonial experience"

Glenburn is a beautiful colonial place where you can enjoy the most amazing hospitality and food. Anthony and his team did a great job of taking care of everything impeccably. Sabin prepared delicious teas and meals, we didn’t have any food repeated in the 6 days we were there. The rooms are huge and beautifully done up. The bay window is a boon. Equal care has been taken in choosing crockery as the linens. A visit to the campsite was beautiful and very well organised. The spa treatment was fantastic. Overall excellent care was taken of our family.

Tugu Lombok: "A Week in Paradise"

"My husband, adult son and I spent a week here two weeks ago. It is simply paradise. The hotel is not large - 32 suites I believe - and is set in very large immaculately kept grounds with the brilliant blue ocean on one side. We had booked a Bhagavat Gita suite and it was perfect. With a beautiful garden at the back and an equally lovely one on the other side with large plunge pool and sun bed leading out directly to the gardens and the beach and sea. The food is delicious, the staff are all without exception superb and we just felt spoiled to death the whole time. We went on a boat trip to the Gilli islands which was wonderful - swimming with turtles and feeding the fish from our hands. The fish and corals were breathtaking. What more can I say - I just long to go back."

Rice & Zen Boutique Resort: "Friendly and beautiful resort"

"Me and my friend got stuck in Samui because of a monsoon, and made a quick decision to stay at Seadance. When we got there we immediately felt right at home, and all the staff made us feel like members of the family. The weather was not on our side during the stay, but Seadance went out of their way to keep us happy. They put together parties and live music nights in order for the guests to still have a good time, the restaurant made us delicious food (try the springrolls, the crispy snapper and the white Sangria!), they helped us organize the trip home and helped us with transportation. The room was wery nice and the beds super comfy. Most of all the atmosphere at the resort was amazing. Although this was our first stay, the management and the rest of the staff made us feel like we were regulars and old friends. We would love to come back again! Stayed January 2017, traveled with friends"

Satri House: "An amazing experience"

From the moment we arrived we were awe-struck by this beautiful property. Gianni and his team do a superb job looking after the guests' every need, from organising tours to arranging airport transportation. All of the staff are very friendly but our favourite was Peng at the pool bar. An absolute delight, he attended us thoughtfully and unobtrusively over our four days at Satri House. We were very sorry to leave. We would definitely stay there again!!

Villa Song Saigon: "Superb!"

Wow! I don't even know where to start! It was the lap of luxury. It oozed style, chic and elegance. The large French colonial style fans in the rooms and hallways created a wonderful atmosphere. Our room was large and stylish. The swimming pool area was immaculately clean and well attended with constant supplies of ice water. The breakfast was absolutely exceptional. We were looked after by Freddie who put a lot of effort and personal touch into serving us. Regular speed boat free shuttle into the city centre means you are just minutes from the buzz of Ho Chi Minh. I would definitely recommend this hotel

Rachamankha: "Impressed"

Stayed here for our honeymoon and wow was it a great choice! The pool is stunning and the grounds are something super special. You feel like royalty here. The staff wants nothing more than to help and please you and do such a great job of making your stay lovely! They gave us fee champagne upon arrival and the manager was so lovely. Airport pickup with them went swimmingly and the breakfast was five star every morning! Couldn't be more full never ending amount of food offered! Room service was a delight as well. Only thing I would say is stay away from the burger and the dinner at the restaurant both were below average. Other than that everything was five star perfection! Will never forget this place!!
