Slow Villas and Spa: "Perfect Stay for Honeymoon!"

"Beautiful Private Villa with with Private Pool My husband and I have a honeymoon staycation in this villa, and we loved it so much. It's located not too far away from the beach, but enough distance to stay away from the crowd. So it’s very perfect for honeymon. We've got a very beautiful spacey villa with a private pool and very spacey backyard. We stay at Villa Number 1. With beautiful interior and big bed, also we love the open bathroom so much! We Love the Eco Concept Slow Villas is very eco-friendly, we’ve got our own bottle for drink and we can bring it outside, wether for dinner outside or beach time. We can also refill it everytime, we don’t need to buy extra water. We’ve got our own kitchen with complete utensil, so you can stay all day long at the villa. And we’ve got yoga matt, which I never found on another villa/hotel, we can join the free yoga clas everyday at ten in the morning. The Best Breakfast! Because Slow VIlla doesn’t have restaurants, they will serve the breakfast at our villa, which you can choose from English themed-breakfast to Australia to America. It’s very delicious. We enjoy it on our table beside the pool. Photogenic Villas As a travel writer and enthusiast, I love taking pictures of anything. And I love every side of our villa. It's beautiful and we made a lot of beautiful pictures. lol! Best Services The staffs were very nice, also we can rent the bicycle anytime. Room Tip: It's perfect, don't forget to buy food or vegetables, you can cook it on your own kitchen!"

4 Rivers Floating Lodge: "The best of Cambodia"

"We were picked up from the airport in Phnom Penh in the car arranged by 4 Rivers. It was a Toyota Camry, the driver was excellent, we felt safe driving through the traffic of Phnom Penh. After about 1.5 hrs we stopped for refreshments at a roadside restaurant that had the cleanest toilets ever. As we got out of the city traffic the scenery got more and more rural with great views of village life. It took us about 4.5hrs to reach the reception on the banks of the River Tatai. Our luggage was loaded on to the boat and we left straight away for the 30 minute transfer to the floating lodge. As we passed the final bend in the river the lodge came into view. What a sight!!. We were met at the lodge by Adonis who showed us to our tent and gave us information about the lodge. The tent was well appointed and had the most amazing view of local village houses on the opposite bank. We chose the last tent on the west side of the lodge and felt at one with the river. We relaxed on the pontoon during parts of the day soaking up the sun and spent the rest of the time with our guide ""By"" (I think that is the spelling) He took us on a trip to a local fishing village and introduced us to the local people. He gave us an unforgettable experience and enabled us to get a real view of the hard lives of the fishing community and some of the environmental challenges they face now and in the future. We finished the trip by kayaking into the mangroves and By's local knowledge made our time so special. The following day he took us out again at dawn on a short Jungle trek. We saw some wildlife but the high lite for us was seeing the school children arriving for classes at the local school we were able to pop into the class and see the children in their lessons. Really special. The evenings were so serene the sunsets were amazing whilst swimming in the river. At night the staff continue to impress with tasty cocktails and great food. (you choose you meals in the afternoon when one of the staff visits you at your tent). The food here is first class nice authentic Khmer cuisine with more western options for those who prefer. They also offer reasonably priced wine by the bottle or glass (yes wine in the jungle). Before dinner there is also the option to see the fireflies. All aboard the boat for a short trip down the river. Then lights out engine off as you drift slowly down stream looking for the fireflies. Really special we did it twice. We spent 3 nights at the lodge and I must say this was the most memorable part of our time in Cambodia. All the staff were amazing and it was an honour to meet them and hear about their lives living and working in this most unspoilt part of the world. Thanks to everyone at 4 Rivers. We wont forget any of you and will cherish our memories. Room Tip: The tents at the end of the row are more private"

Muang La Lodge: "Traumhafte Lodge in wunderbarer Umgebung"

"Unfortunately, only two nights we spent in this oasis of peace and tranquility. Everything was perfect, the room, the cleanliness, the breakfast, the friendliness of the staff. A trip into the mountains by jeep turned into an adventure, since due to the heavy rain in the mud despite snow chains we !! stuck. A walk and a replacement vehicle then have "liberated" us after 3 hours. After that we could relax in the hot baths and then enjoy a delicious dinner. The best hotel on the whole trip! "

Mume: "Modern contemporary cuisine in Taipei"

Helmed by chefs whom trained at the world renowned Noma, comes a modern contemporary restaurant with Taiwanese elements. Ingredients are mostly locally sourced I believe. The sensibilities are quite close to the Nordic style of cuisine, which is subtle in flavour albeit quite well balanced.

Mathis Retreat: "Zen devant les rizières"

A beautiful place, quiet in front of the rice fields, good food, staff very Karine care very welcoming, available to show you the best place in Ubud word "super" Catherine and Jean Louis

GOLDEN BUDDHA BEACH RESORT: "Luxury Eco villa"

"We spent 4 nights here in February 2016 , staying in Bougainvillea Baan and absolutely loved it . The house was almost on the beach with well designed open decking areas , comfortable chairs for lounging in , outdoor shower , mosquito nets , dining area etc , plus a great collection of books and magazines to browse. It had a kitchen and dining table which went unused as we ate at the restaurant each evening . The food, service , and cocktails were excellent ; fresh and delicious every time . The club house and bar were great areas for sitting drinking and watching the sunsets and Happy Hour an absoloute must at 6 pm . The staff were always courteous , helpful and unfailingly polite. Loved the shop too , with a range of authentic and beautifully curated range of clothes , jewellery , glasses , textiles etc : we didn't bother going to the markets as everything we wanted to buy was here... And more ! A truly beautiful and magical place , made so by the people who work , run and manage it , and a special mention for Pena ! Very much intend to return "
