Le Passe-Temps: "Highlight of our trip"

We were on a family holiday in Khao Thong for 2 weeks with my husband, our 2 kids, my dad and his girlfriend. We contacted Olivier via email to make a reservation for dinner. They sent through the menu and price for that night and we arranged a time for someone to pick us up. Arriving there was breath taking, the setting, the atmosphere and then that view! simply stunning! The kitchen normally doesn't open until 7.30 but they suggested serving our dinner earlier as we had 2 little kids with us. We had a cocktail on the beach while gazing at the sunset with our feet in the warm sea water, followed by a lovely dinner served family style. Portions were on the smaller side but they give many dishes so we never went home hungry. Everyone who worked there was so lovely, spoke English and French very well and so accomodating. We went back once more for dinner and one morning for paddle boarding. Will definitely consider this resort to stay at next time we come to Krabi!!!

Villa Mathis: "Chris and the Staff is the reason to stay here"

"We stayed over new years, my wife, our two young kids, and myself. The villa was very nice and clean. The pool and grounds were great. Food is nice. But the main reason this trip out of many to Bali was great, was because of Chris and his staff. They went so far and beyond what is normal. We had so much going on at the time, and we asked and leveraged Chris for so much more than we normally do. He was great, patient and very accommodating. We can't say enough nice things about him and his team. Thanks guys!!!"

The Village House: "Awesome place to relax"

Village house is the perfect place to relax sit back and enjoy. The setting is great, the food really nice you have to do the " taste of Borneo" menu. The staff very nice and helpful. If you want more than hanging around the pool reading, staff can arrange all your trips.

The Island Lodge: "A gem on the Mekong river"

"A peaceful place located on a small island on the Mekong river. Perfect gate away from Ho Chi Min. Nice view on the river. Great staff and team. Awesome a la carte breakfast much better than any buffet. Possible to take boat to visit the other islands and not far away from Cai Be floating market. Very authentic and warm welcome. Do not hesitate...run for it."

Villa Song: "Haven in District 2"

Escape the hustle and bustle of downtown Saigon and head for Villa Song across the river - a beautifully designed Colonial Villa with just the right number of rooms making it feel homely and welcoming. The interior design is lovely featuring Vietnamese artwork and furnishings. The pool area is a huge plus for swimming. The staff are very courteous and whilst going through the booking process helped in numerous ways with suggestions for local trips, booking up restaurants - all very efficient. The car service to and from the airport was excellent and worth doing this. The frenetic pace of Saigon and the unfortunate pollution problems can be quite something so its nice to stay just outside for peace and sanity!!! I also noticed that the staff were especially good and accommodating to small children holidaying with their parents.

tugu lombok: "A little bit of paradise”"

"We have just had a 4 night break at this lovely Hotel. It has all of the wow factors and the staff treated us like royalty. It is a wonderful place to have a peaceful break away from the stress of work or city life and highly recommended. A word of warning about travelling to Lombok. Try and get a direct flight. We travelled from Singapore via Jakarta and had to change terminals which was a nightmare. We were given conflicting information about baggage and terminal numbers, which was all very stressful. "

Tugu Lombok: "Paradise after a lonng days travel"

We travelled from Bali to Lombok intending to stay at a home stay, we arrived late in the afternoon & found out the homestay I had booked was 80ks away. Found some helpful locals who took us to Tugu Hotel Lombok, initially I was blown away by the cost but let me tell you that this was an awesome place to stay. Our host was Henry and the houseperson Zul, they were amazing. Zul made a beautiful entrance to our room with candles, made towels into swans, elephants & most beautifully an alligator. Had a lovely meal in the restaurant. We would thoroughly recommend this piece of paradise.

Chakrabongse Villas: "A real oasis – beautiful and worth every cent"

"Chakrabongse Villas is a really luxurious boutique hotel. We were guests here for 3 nights in April, and we wanted for nothing. We were offered a welcome cocktail when we arrived late in the evening, and our villa was traditional Thai style, and it was well appointed, clean and cool. We had a lovely private balcony overlooking the garden, with fresh flowers, pool towels, daybeds and shade aplenty. Having large villas, lovely gardens and only a handful of villas, we hardly ever saw another guest! We enjoyed the pool and the activity on the river, which we were on the banks of. Grounds are very private, with locked gates. Staff are unobtrusive but efficient, and the clamour, heat and bustle of Bangkok stops at the gates, and you enter a true oasis of calm and luxury. The riverside restaurant is also lovely and we enjoyed a delicious breakfast there each morning, with exquisite service, lovely food, and tourism advice as required. We took their longtail boat tour through the canals one afternoon, and thoroughly enjoyed it, and it was reasonably priced, too. One night we ate at the restaurant for dinner, and really, we were treated like royalty. A treat for the soul, and lovely, simple set menu, deliciously prepared. It was my husband's birthday one day, and they gave him a lovely gift. Add all of this together, and you have an exemplary service provider. Expensive but as i say, well worth it. Congratulations Chakrabongse crew, keep up the good work! Stayed April 2017, traveled as a couple"
