Jing’s Residence: "Historical Treat in the old town of Pinyao"

"As soon as we stepped in the door we knew that this was going to be a wonderful experience. Imam the Manager gave us a warm welcome. Every room is unique and in traditional style set around numerous courtyards with wonderful decorative detail. Breakfast is waitress served by professional staff at all levels. There is a menu with a wide range of choices. Afternoon tea is served with a selection of treats. Attention to detail is given and nothing is too much trouble. A wonderful stay and a wonderful memory of Pingyao."

David’s Kitchen: "Personalized service and excellent food"

My wife and I were able to dine here for my birthday. We enjoyed excellent personalized service during our entire visit. The staff used our names several times during service and the food was excellent. Some of the highlights were the pumpkin soup, rack of lamb, and chocolate souffle. David personally stopped by our table multiple times during the meal to check in with us and chat a bit. With a full restaurant we could tell that David really cared about the people in his restaurant and created a sense of eating at a friends house...if your friend has amazing food!

David’s Kitchen: "Wonderful food and service"

All the reviews say it all. If you are visiting Chiang Mai and your budget allows this restaurant is a must. Prices are about the same as a good restaurant in the UK. Food is exceptional, very large choice to suit all palettes. Great wine list. The service is very attentive nice touch is that David greets dinners. Wonderful experience.

Bali Jiwa Villa: "Amazing Experience"

"Wow !! From the minute you arrive at a little carved wooden door set in the middle of a rice field you realise this is like no where else. We rented the two Villas here so had the whole place to ourselves total privacy, peace and seclusion. The Villas and Lounge/Dining area are beautifully constructed and furnished to blend into the landscape lovely comfy beds, large bathrooms plus outdoor bath and shower. Each area has a collection of books about Indonesia lovely local carvings and traditional furniture make you feel like you are staying in someone's home the attention to detail is fantastic. And now the Staff !! You have your own Staff team who look after your every need cooking and serving beautiful Indonesian. There is a small choice at Breakfast and lunch and a lovely home cooked Indonesian Feast in the Evening. This was an unforgettable Balinese experience - hope to return one day. "

Cuca: "Exceptional!"

"This was easily ranked one of, if not, the best meals we've had in Bali. The property sits on a beautiful idyllic garden surrounded by coconut trees. It has an open concept kitchen and I diners sat by the kitchen counter. Service was excellent, in fact, more than excellent. So much attention to details without being intrusive. Food was an explosion of Flavours. I'm not going to list what we ate but everything we had was amazing. It's the first time I went to a restaurant and not take pics of the food as pics will not justify the experience. Like it says in the menu, come with an open mind and an empty stomach! Totally worth it!"

Cheong Fatt Tze – Blue Mansion: "Excellent! Just Excellent"

"I visited the Blue Mansion during one of the tour groups, and I was simply captivated by the rich story behind the building. Every single detail of the mansion was explained meticulously by the guides. I did the guided tour twice, and I was very impressed by the fact that the guides were genuinely passionate about the history of the building, as well as the history of George Town. I went back to the Blue Mansion for dinner at the restaurant upstairs. Again, I was impressed. the food was spectacular, the decor is kept minimal, so the natural beauty of the building can be appreciated. I particularly love that I get to have a drink at the balcony and stare at the beautiful sculptures up close! Definitely worth visiting. Again and again and again and again. Stayed September 2016, traveled with friends"

Golden Buddha Beach Resort: "Glorious in every way"

"Well, probably our sixth review of this place over past 10 years and it continues to amaze us, and is better each time. You know already what this place offers, so briefly this time a huge pat on the back for every member of staff; and a warm embrace for Alex who continues to plough his own yoga furrow, teaches beautifully and cocks a snook at modern middle class yoga cultists! Go, before places like this become inaccessible or even slightly over developed. It remains unique. Stayed February 2017, traveled as a couple"

Villa Song: "Great Boutique Hotel"

Our stay here was very short but we very much enjoyed the attentive service and the wonderful terrace by the river. Very relaxing. A perfect spot for drinks and dinner. A nice change to the hotels downtown.

Reverie Siam: "Absolutely perfect"

"I don't have a single complaint about this place. Everything was amazing from the shuttle to the staff to the food to the room. The staff at this resort is the best staff I've ever met in all my travels! We joke that we want a boyfriend to treat us as well as the staff did at Reverie Siam. One example is when my friend was doing my hair and one receptionist saw and brought us bobby pins and hair ties! It's located about 5 minutes driving from the center of town but they have a free shuttle. We just called and told them where we were and they picked us up or we said where we wanted to go and they drove us there. They also drove us to the hot springs in the national park (I wouldn't recommend) and the temple on the hill. The room is super cute and clean with all natural ingredient toiletries. You get two free breakfasts and two juice/tea/coffee every day at the restaurant which is phenomenal! It's definitely much more expensive than most places in Pai but for good reason. It's more of a place for older couples (we were two girls in our early 20s and out of place). If you're looking to party and have fun and meet young backpackers I wouldn't really recommend. But we don't regret it at all! We miss it and wish we could go back!! "

Supanniga Eating Room: "fantastic"

Still cocktails! Great list... great taste! Wonderful dining experience. Nice dishes from all over Thailand. We loved everything. Nice and relaxed evening. Great memories!
