CHAKRABONGSE VILLAS: "The perfect oasis in the heart of Old Bangkok"

"I have used tripadvisor to plan trips for years, but our magical time at the Chakrabongse Villas has finally inspired me to write a review of my own. We could not have found a more perfect place to spend the final 3 days of a 2 week trip to SE Asia. Atom, the manager, and her staff were incredibly warm, welcoming, and helpful in making our stay in Bangkok so special, and upgraded us to the Garden View Suite, which was lovely. Tucked away in beautiful, lush gardens right on the banks of the Chao Praya river and directly across from Wat Pho and a short distance to the Grand Palace, the Chakrabongse Villas, is truly a hidden gem. Being in the heart of Old Bangkok meant that we could return to the hotel for a quick dip in the gorgeous pool to cool off from the infamous Bangkok heat before heading out for the next excursion. I highly recommend arranging to have dinner at the Chakrabongse Villas for an unforgettable experience - the dinner we had with a private table set up on the terrace right next to the river was the most romantic, and one of the most delicious, we've ever had (the owner is a descendant of the Thai kings Rama IV & V so the dishes are from the Royal Family's own recipes). We also enjoyed our tour of Bangkok's canals in the Chakrabongse Villa's own long tail boat. If you are looking for the perfect boutique hotel that offers a peaceful, historical oasis in hectic and hot Bangkok, then I cannot recommend Chakrabongse Villas highly enough. Thank you, Atom, for helping to make our stay so extraordinary. "

JL Studio: "精緻新穎的新加坡料理"

喜歡新加坡料理，又愛奇巧精緻的食客無法錯過的去處，每道菜色都頗具巧思，味美之外又結合特製餐具，擺盤道道賞心悅目。這是一個值得細細品味的用餐場所，也是個犒賞味蕾的好去處。

The Village House: "Mr and Mrs Smith style boutique hotel"

"Myself and a friend stayed at The Village House for one night a couple of weeks ago, and we both left saying that we could have stayed for much longer. If I go back to Borneo I intend to stay there for at least a week! The room was lovely and clean, modern, unpretentious and very comfortable. The bathroom was big, with a powerful shower. It was quiet and felt safe and secure. The hotel has a lovely pool, which has lots of nice plants and trees around it that give it a great deal of character. The restaurant and 'bar' area is around the pool, we ate both lunch and supper at the hotel as there is nowhere else around (I believe the closest restaurant is a 5km drive away), but eating at the hotel was the best decision anyway, as their food is some of the best we had over the course of the trip, which is high praise in Malaysia! The beach is about 2 minutes away from the hotel on foot, it is huge and quite striking with lots of trees and deadwood on the beach. The sea was extremely warm, it is quite shallow for a long way out, so perhaps not the best if you want a real dip. Sadly I was attacked by a jelly fish so my swim was abruptly ended. According to the hotel they are not that rare, but not dangerous, perhaps not the best place from swimming though! Overall I found it comfortable, the staff were lovely and helpful, and I would highly recommend its restaurant. If you are looking for somewhere with lots of bars and restaurants, however, this is not the area for you!"

The Hue House: "Ich liebe es"

"Ich liebe das Gericht hier so sehr!!! Alles sehr Kultur und Gaumen:)!

Außerdem das view ist voll natürlich,man kann vier Seiten von Saigon umschauen und Sonnen genießen. Werde mich nochmal kommen,ich bin der Koch auch. Vertrauen mir und versuchen sie mal wenn sie Urlaub machen!Bitte vorbei kommen!"

Satri House: "Best Hotel Ever!"

"Perfect hotel for who want very private & relaxing place. You will feel that you're perfectly cared by entire hotel associates and that will surely make you big fan of Satri. I would give 10 Stars Satri if I could! ^_^ Perfect room condition. Tasteful foods. Relaxing garden. Satri is not large but it has everything perfect."

Locavore: "Adding to the AMAZING reviews"

"I probably can’t add anything to the glowing reviews but Locavore is fantastic! Generous, friendly, incredible food. Yep, it’s super expensive for Bali but it’s world class and the chefs create magic with local ingredients, herbs and leaves that are a taste sensation. We made friends with our neighbours who, like us, were giddy with happiness at the deliciousness of it all. We could not have asked for a more interesting or unique meal that was pretty & abundant too. Would return in a heartbeat."

Tugu Malang: "A stunning boutique hotel"

"This is my favourite hotel in this city, come here around 3-4 times. Full with antique items (like poteki puppet dolls, or old chinese porcelain etc), the hotel even provide a free tour for guest to visit their biggest suite and another romantic spot in hotel ground. And the rooms in hotel have different theme (only the basic one that don't have that kind perk) Breakfast is indonesian cuisine also afternoon tea also, blended with traditional snack. It comes with a price tag, not heavy for western standard, but yes higher than the rest of the other hotel in malang. "

Sandat Glamping Tents: "Words don´t describe this unique place"

"This place is like no other. Best in Bali! We stayed here for three nights around New Year 2016, one night in a tent and two nights in a lumbung. Everything was just very unique and perfect, from entering the property to check out. The interior design, the garden and the plants, the tatched bamboo roofs and buildings not to mention the tents and the lumbungs, the pool overlooking the jungle and the ricefield surroundings. I would say Sandat has the friendliest staff in Bali and the supernice and friendly Italian owners have managed to create a spotless concept. The interior design and sophisticated taste just crowned it all! Sandat is just ca 10-15 minutes drive from Ubud center and has a totally unique atmosphere; tranquility, lush, nature, green with the jungle on one side and the rice fields on the other side. The place will have their own yoga studio from spring 2016. If you're about to book something for Ubud, don't hesitate to go for this. You won't regret it! We even returned after a week of traveling around Bali and spend our last days at this fantastic place. Big thumbs up to the Italian owners Emanuela and Federico!"

Flower Island Resort: "Amazing"

"This island is staggering. We arrived on the boat to a millionaires welcome, we were blown away and the only guests on the island, ill never have this again in my life. Make sure you do the pearl lunch trip it was fab. Also sleep in the lighthouse, we stopped on the 5th floor to witness the sunrise, ill never forget our stay here."

Les Maisons Wat Ko: "Out of the ordinary"

The Maison Wat Kor is a unique resort just outside Battambang. Right in a local village with chickens and cows just outside the gate. The resort is very beautiful with the feeling of beeing in the middle of a forest. Friendly staff and very good food
