David’s Kitchen: "Just wow"

Review by: timmM8174QN | Source: Trip Advisor
"We found David's Kitchen on TripAdvisor and decided to go there for my birthday dinner. It was just as spectacular as everyone described. The service was amazing. We came in to our name on our table and the wait staff all greeted us by name. The dishes were never on our table for longer then about 2 minutes and our drinks were always topped up. The food just melted in my mouth. It can't be described, you just need to try it for yourself. It is expensive of course but well worth it. This is somewhere that I normally wouldn't be able to afford but thought we'd splash out for my birthday and I am very very satisfied."

tugu lombok: "Magical place"

Review by: Fabio M | Source: tripadvison.com
"I remember we arrived at Tugu around 9pm. While checking in two families arrived. They were on the same flight we were from Singapore. Looking all around I exclaimed ""What a beautiful place!""... And the guy next to me replied ""It's a magical place!"" That's what Tugu is. A magical place. It's not a luxury place, it may not be the best hotel you've ever been! But it may very well be an experience you will never forget. We enjoyed the Villa, the different places where we had dinners, the beach, the excursion to the Gili islands and overall we enjoyed the people. Thank you for let us fell so well! "

"What a wonderful stay / experience - We just love Sanak Retreat Bali. After travelling around asia for 2 months We arrived at this wonderful, beautiful and most quiet place at Bali. We had a lovely and warm greeting by the staff / No I Will not Call it staff but the Sanak Family. Due our stay they where all so kind, helpful and aware of every guest.

Beautiful property, very hospitable staff, outstanding views, thoughtful service, good facilities and food. And a great spa. Just what a hotel should be but very few achieve. Worth coming to Saigon if only to check in here. The manager is a guest's delight. Thank you.

Tiger Mountain Pokhara Lodge: "Absolutely Lovely!"

Review by: Helen J | Source: Trip Advisor
We treated ourselves to a night at Tiger Mountain after a trek in the Annapurna region. The combination of a stunning location, gorgeous stone cottage accommodation and an excellent level of service sets Tiger Mountain apart from other places in Nepal. We were very impressed with the knowledge and service level of the staff, the comfort of the rooms and the excellent food provided. Two of us decided to do the morning guided bird watching tour, which was excellent. We saw an amazing assortment of birds on a short walk around the property, including a very pretty scarlet minivet. The views from the property are superb!

Reverie Siam: "Excellent"

Review by: רונית ז | Source: tripadvisor.com
We came here for 3 nights and stayed in the family suite. Beautiful room very clean and well vintage designed. Breakfast is the best a la carte. The staff is very friendly and most of them speak english. All in all, had a great time here and hope to come here again.

Muang La Lodge: "formidable"

Review by: André M | Source: Trip Advisor
Great room overlooking the river. Magnificent bathroom. Raphael and Mathilde are enough for their guests. high-end kitchen, we feasted. The activities are very interesting, beautiful walks in the forest, great track for minority ethnic groups and the descent of the river Nam Ouh is superb. Dream stay at this property which employs people from surrounding villages.

Tugu Lombok: "world class tropical island resort"

Review by: michael b | Source: Trip Advisor
"We recently stayed at hotel Tugu for our honeymoon. From the moment we were picked up at the airport the hotel staff were friendly, attentive and helpful. The hotel staff were always very friendly, and happily greeted us at breakfast, lunch and dinner and whenever we were out and about in the resort. The staff were very enthusiastic to offer us activities around the island during our stay. We were pretty much able to make any of our Lombok dreams come true. We were able to experience traditional weaving in a traditional women's weaving village, amazing water falls at sanur, my husband hand fished with the local fisherman, snorkeling with turtles in beautiful clear waters off the Gili islands and a beautiful romantic beach side dinner at sunset. our honeymoon at hotel Tugu was an absolutely amazing experience. We were welcomed like family, a perfect getaway. Complementary breakfast and afternoon tea was always wonderful and of the highest quality. The complimentary massages were very welcoming as well, thank you. Half way through our stay we were generously upgraded to an Oceanside villa with a plunge pool which was extremely generous, thank you Mr Henry. We traveled in low season and it felt like we pretty much had the whole resort all to ourselves. If you want seclusion, privacy, away from ""the rat race"", relaxation, beautiful surroundings, wonderful atmosphere ,world class service and a romantic tropical island beach resort get away, we would highly recommend hotel tugu Lombok. A special thanks to hotel manager Henry and every single one of his amazing team on there attention to detail and customer service we received at all times throughout our stay. We will definitely be back in the future. Mr & Mrs Bruno Stayed February 2017, traveled as a couple"

SEEDS Restaurant & Lounge: "Michelin star quality lakeside Yangon"

Review by: Glen C | Source: Trip Advisor
My second time to Yangon and this is the best ! Sensational food and wine set in amazing gardens on the lake. I recommend arriving before dinner for a cocktail in the stunning lounge area. It’s so beautiful to sit under the outside terrace or if you want something super romantic and private choose one of the private dining options (see photo ) or there is one lakeside. Service was impeccable. Must do !

Poring Hot Spring Nature Reserve: "Well established hot spring and nature reserve"

Review by: HongYaw | Source: Trip Advisor
"The hot spring and nature reserve is pretty established, but im afraid a lil too developed. It has lost its own nature identity. The butterfly park, the rafflesia farm etc. Its a good nature reserve for family and elderly. If you are a nature and adventure seeker, this might be abit too developed. Kinabalu/ bako national park in Sarawak will be a better option No animals free roaming in the nature reserve, the hot spring too is filled in personal tubs. Alot of attraction need to pay extra. On the good side, do hike up for the waterfall. It is a pristine condition waterfall that pretty easy to reach. Alot of basic necessities are provided. Toilets, changing room, water supply are all kept in good condition."
