Samanea Beach Resort: "A lovely place fr a hideway"

"Second visit to Samanea, and the gardens have grown, the views from the jetty still amazing, the mangrove project ambitious and fascinating... and the team and service much better than the first time. Congratulation for the good work!"

Golden Buddha Beach Resort: "Paradise!"

"We stayed here for Christmas 2017, it was our fourth visit and everything about Golden Buddha is perfect. The staff are amazing, very professional, always friendly and nothing is too much trouble for them. Valerie the owner has time for everyone, Massi and Theresa manage the resort to perfection and Guy at the pizza bar on the beach is fantastic, he should never be allowed to leave!!! This resort is truly unspoilt Thailand, not the place if you want nightlife but if you are looking for relaxation and to completely chill out this is THE place to go. You will not be disappointed, it exceeds all expectations. All of the houses are individual, we were a party of six so Bann Mangorn was perfect for us, three bedrooms, three bathrooms a wonderful balcony with sea views to relax on. All the banns are extremely clean, mosquito nets are over all the beds and all have outside areas to sit and relax, some with hammocks. The food menu changes everyday always with an excellent choice. Christmas Eve celebrations started with cocktails on the beach beside a huge bonfire, there was a wonderful buffet with so many choices, Entertainment followed by local school children and staff, then down onto the beach to light lanterns and watch them float across the bay. A truly magical evening. The beaches are pristine clean, the front beach is shallow and perfect for children, the other beach gently slopes and is great for swimming. The only downside to this beautiful island is that all to soon it is time to leave. If you are fortunate enough to visit this island you will not be disappointed. Golden Buddha Beach Resort really is a little bit of paradise."

satrin house: "beautiful antique design"

"Stayed few days in this beautiful hotel! The design is antique and it makes your stay special. Great service in the hotel, nice breakfast. 7 min from the night market/center, and free bicycle in the hotel make it faster. Highly recommended hotel in Luang Prabang "

Villa Song Saigon: "Villa Song January 17"

"We have stayed at Villa Song 4 times now and each visit has been excellent. The Management and staff are friendly and helpful. Breakfast is worth getting up for. I always enjoy my stay here due to the extremely comfortable beds and pillows. Stayed January 2017, traveled as a couple"

Villa Mathis: "A little gem"

"Went there without knowing what to expect and what a great surprised! This property is one of a kind, few villas scattered in a huge tropical garden, we were staying in Villa des Rizières with friends and everything was perfect, the bedrooms really nicely decorated the lodging area to die for and the pool just gorgeous!!! The staff is really helpful dedicated and friendly... I strongly recommend this place to anyone wanting to be close to Semyniak and Canggu but in a quite and stunning environment. Stayed March 2017, traveled with friends"

Maduzi Hotel: "Boutique elegance off Sukhumvit"

The hotel is small, at just 40 rooms and is situated on a triangular corner site beside Soi 16, hence the unusual layout of some rooms. It is packed with interesting objets d'art. When I arrived, I was upgraded to a corner suite, which was just delightful. The bed was an enormous California king, I had a big desk and chair, armchair, breakfast table and 2 chairs, plus a huge ensuite with shower and jacuzzi bath. The toilet was separate and there was even a luggage room on its own. All decorated with understated stylish panache. Also in the room was an espresso maker, CD player and a free minibar of soft drinks and some snacks. Breakfast was served in the downstairs restaurant. While individual dishes were interesting, with a European influence, I must say I was disappointed by the portion size. I would have preferred a buffet, but maybe that is not an economic option in a hotel that size. It is 5 minutes easy walk to Asok station on the BTS. Staff service was friendly and individualistic. Would definitely like to revisit.

Babe: "Ludicrous name but delicious food"

Visited here with colleagues to celebrate the end of a tough project. The food was absolutely delicious. I had the tasting menu - it was very sophisticated! The view is also something to behold as well. It was pricy, but it’s not everyday you get to eat such good quality food, while looking at Kuala Lumpur in the distance.

Tugu Malang: "My home away from home"

"I was born and raised in Malang, but reside overseas the last 17 years. Whenever I visited my family, this is my go to hotel, without a doubt. This year only, they'll see me 3x, which each visit I stayed minimum 7 nights. I've been a repeat guest since several years ago. Few of Hotel Tugu employees know me by my first name. I have my favorite room, #211 (corner room, spacious with Alun Alun view) and Tugu Hotel always accommodate me so I could stay in that room every time I made a request. I don't think I've ever received such attentive and personalized service anywhere else. All the staff treated me with respect, and I don't think I've received different treatments than any other guest, westerners, or not. For that I'm very grateful. Such a high quality service. Location is the best. Many of public transportation routes will pass this area. I could hop on and off easily to other parts of this town. Specially to satisfy my old cravings for local specialties. It's only 5-10 minutes ride to Lumpia Hoklay, Pecel Kawi, Rawon Nguling, etc. earlier this year, I experienced the multiple days of public transportation strike in front of the city hall, which is located next door to this hotel. However, staying in wasn't a problem for me. Staff when above and beyond to accommodate my requests, multiple time on different visits. I'm so looking forward to my next stay in few months. "

The River Resort: "haut de gamme"

"Le site est magnifique, lors de notre séjour (mi juillet) les jardiniers plantaient le riz dans les rizières, le jardin est super bien entretenu, les fleurs abondantes…. tout cela donne un cachet incroyable à l'hôtel et vous plonge immédiatement dans un petit cocon les bungalows sont luxueux , nous avons eu la chance d'avoir un bungalow vue sur le mekong alors que nous avions réservé un bungalow jardin et c'est vrai que la vue est époustouflante… on ne se lasse pas de regarder passer le fleuve (qui monte monte en cette saison) et les pêcheurs. Le bungalow est super équipé: 2 douches dont une en extérieur, literie d'excellente qualité, peignoirs, chaussons, parapluies, café, climatisation optimale, porte moustiquaire (parce que les insectes aussi se sentent bien ici)….. nos filles logeaient à l'étage et nous au rez de chaussée, il faut sortir et contourner à chaque fois le bâtiment pour rejoindre l'autre chambre.. un peu plus long pour nous mais ce qui prouve le côté intimiste de chaque chambre les piscines à débordements se trouvent le long du mekong… de nouveau cadre incroyable les prix sont plus élevés qu'ailleurs, mais le standing est également plus élevé sachez juste que l hôtel est un peu isolé si ce n'est le vieux champasak que nous avons fait en vélo (prêtés par l'hôtel), c'est donc un hôtel qui se démarque par son côté cocon, calme et sérénité. ceux qui cherchent l'animation tonitruante n'y trouveront donc pas leur goût"

Rachamankha: "Beautiful Boutique Hotel"

"Location is within the square but a little bit out of the main shopping and food areas in the old town of Chiang Mai. However it is only a 10-12 minute walk into the main central food areas and this slight isolation gives the hotel a sense of pure tranquility that is difficult to find in this bustling little city. Another bonus is the hotel is right next to one of our favourite temples (Phra Singh Temple) The property itself is pure class; the courtyard is stunning and there is plenty of places on the property to relax and read a book or take in the amazing architecture, art and culture that is oozing from this gorgeous hotel. The pool is beautiful and again another great place to relax and unwind. The staff are friendly but not over bearing which we found perfect. Sometimes staff can get a little too familiar but not in this case. The restaurant was fabulous and the breakfasts although not large were perfect to set up the day. There were a few things that were not 100% but over all we were very happy with our stay and would certainly go back. The WiFi on the property was not strong and would often drop but luckily we bought a pocket WiFi so wasn't a big issue. Although the staff did spray often there were many mosquito's around but we bought some bug spray at the local 7/11 and used it in the room before we left each evening. Also the rooms were appointed with mosquito nets which was great. There was also a real lack of power points in the room. I would take a power bar with you if you are expecting to charge anything more than a phone...but I guess this place is for relaxing and not for electronics ;)"
