Satri House: "Ein Ort zum Verweilen"
"Ein wunderschöner Ort, den wir vier Tage lang genossen haben. Das war nach der langen Reise der ideale Einstieg für Laos. Von hier aus kann man die alte Königsstadt Luang Prabang erkunden - und kehrt gerne wieder zurück. Das historische Haus mit seinem zauberhaften Garten, den Pools, der Bar und dem sehr guten Restaurant ist nach den Besichtigungstagen eine Oase der Entspannung. Sehr freundlicher Service. Alles sehr geschmackvoll, und wir haben den Fernseher nicht vermisst. Stayed February 2017, traveled as a couple"jing: "Why did we stay only one night?"
"Actually, the answer to the question in the title of this review is that we didn't have more time to spend on holiday. Our greatest mistake was not having two nights at this lovely hotel. Imam at reception was kind and welcoming. He made us feel right at home. The room was gorgeous and the courtyards of the hotel are lovely. The hotel is so quiet - it was the best night sleep we had the whole holiday! The breakfast was off a menu and the choices were both Chinese and Western. And both of our choices were delicious. We also decided to eat dinner at the hotel. It was ""upscale"" pricewise, but the food was excellent and well presented. We also were able to try some of the local dishes which we would have missed out on if we were just wandering the streets. We would recommend this hotel to anyone - and we hope that one day we will find ourselves back in the Jing Residence.... "Muang La Lodge: "Worth the journey"
There is no way round it, this beautiful hotel is remote, it took us 5 hours to get there and the same to leave. However, the location is beautiful. The hotel is so well run, every detail is perfect. We loved the food as well.Cuisine Wat Damnak: "Khmai food and hospitality at its best"
A really good restaurant. The food was top notch - Khmai food with an added twist. The service was first rate and the setting very conducive to a wonderful evening - highly recommended and not too costlysukoon: "Amazing"
"Had a great time at Sukoon. Surpassed all our expectations. Superb service and great food. Staff is friendly and they really look after the guests. Highly recommended. We went as a family and it was very comfortable and luxurious. "Rak Ko Jae Seoul: "Wonderful Experience – Hanok in Bukchon"
This beautiful property tucked away in the Bukchon neighborhood of Seoul is an absolute gem! We had the opportunity to spend 3 amazing nites in the Rak Ko Jae, and during our stay we met Winnie, our fabulous and very accommodating host. She prepared amazing breakfastes and was so delightful to chat with. Loved our quaint sleeping quarters and the heated floors. Plus the supercool old school korean tub. So enjoyed just snooping around the amazing complex. I'm running out of superlatives to use! Also, check out the hot sauna, sweating until you cant keep your eyes open (in a good way!). We'll never forget our visit.Inle Princess Resort: "As before, just excellent"
"My most recent stay at Inle Princess Resort was, like all my previous ones, wonderful. I find everything at the resort just excellent, the chalets, restaurant, spa, bar, gift shop and again, above all, the people. Several staff members speak some basic German and Spanish and I encourage guests to give them a chance to practice their language skills. The resort is beautiful (a swimming pool was almost completed when I was there), but I find it a very good experience to take a bicycle and to explore the countryside, nearby villages, markets, or the winery, just ask at the front desk. The food, whether Burmese (e.g., curries, Mohinga, home made ice cream) or Western (e.g., BBQ Chicken on Steamed Pumpkin), was always delicious. My secret, I simply followed the recommendations of the chef (Nwe Oo) or of one of her assistants (Mo Kham). Very impressive is the social responsibility of the resort owner family, supporting the local population in many ways (e.g., health, orphanages, schools, education and more)."Samanea Beach Resort: "Great place to stay, almost perfect"
"Great environment, nice bungalow, beautiful setting, amazing view on the sea and fabulous sunset. The staff is very nice and helpful from the waiters to the manager. Few bungalows so you really feel being in a protected place with not many people and a beautiful nature. The only critics would be about the restaurant (not the service which is great) but the food : breakfast too poor and too many courses missing each day on the menu. However food is good. Finally the swimming pool is large and nice but hotel should take care of the maintenance as some mosaic pieces are missing or going apart. If you go to Kep I definitively recommend this great resort that I would refer more as an Eco-lodge, you will feel being in a special place"Rice & Zen Boutique Resort: "Great accomodation"
"Michael and staff are very kind and went through great detail to take care of my stay in Thailand. Arnold accomodated my taxing to Chaing Mai and was always on time. Excellent villa with a delicious breakfast served. The pool is refreshing and the wonderful classical music being played made my stay so relaxing. I will definitely book there again upon my return. Stayed March 2017, traveled solo"Cuca: "Great food"
We visited Cuca in Jimbaran, after an event at Polperro winery (Red Hill), hosted by the head chef from Cuca. The food at Polperro was amazing and I was really excited to see the restaurant for the first time. I was not disappointed, the textures, presentation and flavours are fantastic and the staff are warm and friendly. The atmosphere is relaxed, it's dimly lit and moody, but if you have a preference for more light, you can always sit at the bar over the kitchen and watch the precision of the team. The outside seating area is in a garden, complete with water features and lanterns. The grounds are generous. Price wise it's not over the top, I loved everything this place, so much so, I have booked again for tomorrow night!!Travel Asia with Secret Retreats
