Mie Cafe: "Wonderful discovery for Khmer fusion food"

We have been living in Cambodia for 20 months now and have tried a lot on the evolving Top Ten restaurant must-try. Now here is one quiet, unassuming restaurant off the tourist spots in Siem Reap that we found to be REALLY, REALLY GOOD. Chef Pola is Khmer and very creative with local cuisine plus his talent and training abroad makes it world class gourmet. What can I say.. I even tried the red ants and eggs on the menu and liked the entire dish. Just give the tuktuk driver the address and he can bring you there.

Mie Cafe: "Good menu well executed"

"Left our group for dinner here with my wife. Was not disappointed. Simple but very pleasant atmosphere. Very good service. A well thought out menu with interesting takes on Khmer cuisine. A great take on beef carpaccio, wonderful snake head fish ceviche, outstanding huge langoustinos in curry over sweet potato purée. The krill raviolis were were milder than expected, but well prepared. Great ice cream and sorbet. A coconut milk panna cotta with black rice and mango sorbet was wonderful. A little more expensive than other places, but worth it."

Villa Song Saigon: "Great location, fantastic food"

Extremely well run hotel, the staff are outstanding. The riverside location is peaceful and stunning. Shuttle or boat to town if you want the bustle. Restaurant is good, but could do with less European dishes and more Vietnamese dishes. Breakfast is excellent, have the Pho.

Tugu Bali: "Traditional old world Balinese style hotel"

"Drive through traditional villages and rice fields. Only 30 minutes from Seminyak. It is a lovely drive and sometimes people want to see the rice fields without spending a day driving to Ubud. Arrive at Tugu, lovely old world traditional hotel for a nice lunch. A couple of hours of your time well spent. Relaxing, peaceful and educational. "

Muang La Resort: "Fantastic!"

"We stayed a few days in this quiet, comfortable, very well located resort. The food is absolutely delicious and very well presented. The staff cordial, efficient and knowledgeable. The resort offers spa with massage, etc. very excellent. And having the hot springs nearby is a plus that I very much enjoyed. Mixing with the locals in this way is a wonderful way to have a taste of the local culture. The managers, two young but very welcoming and available. An experience not to be missed. Highly recommend, and would love to go back there and enjoy more of the surroundings, doing some of the activities that are available. Beautiful surroundings."

Villa Song Saigon: "Excellent"

We stayed here 5 nights and enjoyed every bit of it. Staying at Villa Song Saigon is a treat. The tasteful food, the very friendly staff, the spacious and clean room, the relaxed atmosphere and the spa all helped to make our stay very pleasant.  A speedboat brings you to district 1, free of charge and tour operators will come pick you up with their boats in the morning so not to have you get stuck in traffic. It's a wonderful way of travelling, i must admit.

Mie Cafe: "Creative, delicious vegan set"

"We weren't expecting a vegan option when we booked this place on friends' recommendation. But when we arrived, the vegan menu looked so delicious, we had to order it. The cute chef is very talented, taking common Cambodian ingredients (eggplant, tomatoes, herbs) and combining them in new ways. The vegetable curry was divine, and the open-air setting a delight. "

Amata Lanna: "Relaxing and Extremely Friendly Staff"

"A very nice spot for any kind of trip to Chiang Mai. Very clean and the best staff you could find to always make sure you are happy. We always felt welcome and felt like we were family. The rooms are decorated very nicely and has a nice Thai style and the courtyard is a small oasis like setting that is very pleasant. Overall very impressed with the Amata Lana."

Rice & Zen Boutique Resort: "Our very special place"

Thank you Michael and Maya ❤️ for creating such a sacred place, a little breakfast paradise, a beautiful scenery place, most cozy sleep, most lovely pool time space, all in one. You be in my 3 most beloved places among my travels!!!!

misool: "Paradise!!!"

After 8 flight connections and a 4 hour boat ride from the US, this place was just paradise! The passion that these 2 individuals have for this area of the world is evident in their respect and protection of the ecobalance of nature...from the use of only fallen logs for the buildings and furniture to the use of natural bacteria and plant life to filter the water services. The food was wonderful with a local influence and nice variety. The staff were from the surrounding and some far away villages and so very friendly. (...) Our dive guides on our boat, Marafel and Ferry, were so great to hang out with. So fun and friendly, and knowledgeable of the reefs and fishes! They even rescued our camera after we got excited with the mantas on our safety stop. Even though we don't know their names, all the behind the scenes staff were wonderful in making this vacation so relaxing and exciting at the same time! Even if you're not a diver, the house reef is wonderful for snorkeling and the view from the water cottages is breathtaking! We would go back in a heartbeat and I urge you to go and see this piece of paradise for yourself!! Terri F., St Jacob, IL
