Rachamankha: "Great Service"

"The peacefulness of the resort. Staff were very discreet in their comings and goings so coming back to the room and it having been made up was a delight. Loved that the restaurant was on the premises as it was unseasonable hot and less inviting to go out. The art gallery and artifacts around the property enhanced the beauty and elegance of the resort. The pool was crystal clear. Stayed January 2017, traveled with family"

Le Du Wine Bar & Restaurant: "Excellent Modern Thai"

Tucked away a little the restaurant is in a side street in the bottom floor of an apartment building. Friendly staffed showed us in and made sure we got the menu's with 3 choices, A la carte, a fixed price 4 course menu choosing from the menu or the 6 course tasting menu. We choose the 6 course menu and enjoyed the journey through some amazing Thai dishes that had some modern touches or tastes. Each course allowed you to enjoy the Thai flavours but with a twist or addition. One of the best 'Thai' meals I have eaten. So an excellent range of dishes, friendly service and a nice comfortable ambiance to wrap up an amazing meal.

Tugu Bali: "As Great As They Say It Is"

"Thanks to TA reviews we spent a day here that was unforgettable. Surrounded by the din of this busy area, it is an oasis of serenity and extraordinary hospitality of the staff. Get up at dawn and hear the birds on the property. It is a museum of artifacts- you need go nowhere else on Bali. We stayed in Rejang Suite with outdoor tin tub, view of water. A long way from USA but nothing like this in North America. We were given gifts when we left that were handmade. Amazing. "

Jings Residence: "Boutique hotel with real Chinese character"

This is a great boutique hotel in the heart of historic Pingyao. The staff are very enthusiastic and keen to please, though the standard of English is not the same as in the bigger tourist centres in China. The rooms are around a courtyard and have been well designed: they retain a lot of original features but have modern plumbing, wifi access and other conveniences. Very nice dinner served with some style. Thoroughly recommended.

Arumdalu: "An excellent and very luxurious unique experience"

We spent 5 days at this resort on our latest trip to Indonesia. We know the country well so we can be a bit choosy. We had a very luxurious experience at this resort with really excellent food. The accommodation was perfect with bungalows with small pool. The concept with back to nature fit our interest in a sustainable resort thinking. We just loved the whole idea and our stay here!

Slow Villas and Spa: "A luxurious modern oasis in Gilli Air. An amazing place to slow down and relax"

"I should mention that prior to our arrival to Gilli Air, I was in constant communication with the Villas, trying to arrange for transportation from Amed to the island. Bali and the surrounding area was experience heavy tropical rain storms and no boats were travelling between Bali and Lombok. Juli and her team were extremely responsive to my questions and concerns, and were extremely helpful in assisting us. The provided many options and recommendations. I knew from the start we were going to be in good hands and have an excellent experience with Slow Gilli Air (aka Slow Villas). We travelled from Amed to Gilli Air via the Freebird Express speedboat. It dropped us off on the shores of Gilli Air, and then took a cidone (horse and carriage) to Slow Gilli Air. Upon our arrival, we were given a warm welcome by Juli and her staff. The entire team was extremely professional, accommodating, attentive and friendly. Slow Villas took was breathtaking from the beginning. We were shown to our private villa and it was magical. Everything has been thought out and attention has been paid to the smallest of details. To start, the map of the island, full of personalized handwritten recommendations was truly a nice touch. The villa comes equipped with a kitchenette, an outdoor bathroom, A/C, a memory stick loaded with a selection of movies, a private pool and outdoor sitting area. They even provide you with stylish straw sun hats to protect you from the sun and flashlights for walking around at night. In addition, they provide a complimentary 30 minute spa treatment at the property's spa. The spa treatment was so great that we booked second visit. The complimentary breakfast was incredible. Breakfast is delivered to the villa every morning and features fresh produce and a wide range of healthy menu options, we were overwhelmed (in a good way) by the spread. Featuring a modern bohemian rustic vibe, it's really charming and really encourages you to wind down (hence the name and philosophy of the place) and relax. The location is just off the beaten track. A secluded beach is a short walk away. There are bikes available to rent, which we took full advantage of. It's a relatively small island, but walking it sometimes proved to be just a tad too far. Biking is definitely the way to go. Honestly, we enjoyed our time at the villa so much, we tried to spend as much time there as possible. It was everything we wanted and more. We would definitely stay here again. This is truly a Gilli Air gem. Room Tip: This is a small property with only 10 private villas."

David’s Kitchen: "Wonderful night for our 21st anniversary"

"After our initial plans to celebrate our 21st wedding anniversary fell through, we were immensely grateful that David's Kitchen could not only accommodate us last minute, but make the night so special with those little extra touches..table decorations, anniversary card and flowers. The food was wonderful! Atmosphere perfect, from the moment we drove into the parking lot. The menu was extensive, with so many wonderful things to choose from. We will definitely have to go back again and try all the other menu items! Thankyou to David and your staff for a wonderful evening."

Manda De Laos: "A wonderful cultural dining experience"

"We went to this restaurant on the recommendation of our tour guide, with our small group to celebrate her birthday. The ambience was perfect, the food very good and the service couldn't be faulted. A nice added touch was the small desert cake with candle for our guides birthday. The tablets are set around a UNESCO lotus pond."
