Flower Island: "Perfect away from it all"

Review by: Evarich | Source: Trip Advisor
From the journey to the Island and everything during our stay to the time we had to leave was simply amazing. The fantastic approach by boat, the welcome, the staff, the food, the serenity, the views, snorkelling, canoeing, the beach, the bar, the rooms and the dog. We absolutely loved the whole experience. No TV, WiFi, unless at the reception, traffic, hustle and bustle. A most perfect few days of sheer basic bliss in simple true rustic charm. Total chill out. We will be back, for longer next time!

The Island Lodge: "Beautiful stay in MeKong"

Review by: barbara s | Source: Trip Advisor
"We were picked up in Saigon and driven for about 2 hours to this hotel. It was an amazingly beautiful spot to spend 2 days and relax and explore. Husband had a wonderful massage and the pool and lobby areas were gorgeous. The whole setting is very ""Indochine"" and so well done. The staff was very attentive and tried to help with all we could ask -- The breakfast which was included was delicious and we also had dinner there as there was no where else near by to go easily. We walked around near the hotel--but it is not near any other things that are places to see. We did do their bike/boat tour to Ben Tre which was wonderful. Our guide--from the hotel--was so nice and we took a boat to Ben Tre--then biked all over the island--stopping to see different fruits, ect... and visiting pagodas and locals on the way. Ben Tre is so nice, shaded and easy to navigate with the guide. We loved this place and the owner and staff were very hospitable! Room Tip: we had gorgeous room with balcony overlooking the pool and river"

Satri House: "Wonderful hotel"

Review by: shpreiss | Source: Trip Advisor
Satri House is simply a very special place. My husband and I stayed there three nights right before Christmas and couldn't have been happier. The hotel staff is very welcoming and warm; the property is gorgeous with amazing antique furniture, two pools and a very special design. The food in the restaurant is also excellent served in a patio like setting overlooking lush vegetation. Of all hotels we stayed at during our two week trip, Satri House was our favorite. Thank you!!

Glenburn Tea Estate: "Wonderful and timeless"

Review by: Cham67 | Source: Trip Advisor
An unforgettable stay, at 2000 meters above sea level, in cottages dating from the British colonial era, in the heart of a tea plantation ... a delight for the eyes and taste buds ...! Everything is done to satisfy you. Here you can relax while contemplating the Himalayas or participate in multiple and varied activities in an exceptional and timeless. Do not miss a picnic (or even overnight) to camp at the river! With 8 accommodations you will not be faced with the crowd! ... Dinner is traditionally eaten together, candlelight, and theme menus are absolutely amazing! The quality of massages provided on site is exceptional. The staff is totally dedicated, always available and very smiley. After the factory tour (and tasting) you will be unbeatable on tea! A wonderful shop will let you take in your luggage a little of this paradise!

Inle Heritage Stilt Houses: "Amazing Experience"

Review by: Crystalbug20 | Source: Trip Advisor
"This hotel gives the best experience during our April 2017 Kalaw-Inlay vacation. We ( husband and daughter ) stayed here for only 1 night and my 11 years old daughter request me to plan a 3 days stay next time :) Staff are very friendly and professional , especially on our arrival , Thant Zin welcome us with the warm and genuine smile and touring around hotel. Throughout the stay we experienced the hospitality of all. The bungalows are spacious, clean and beautifully decorated. We had dinner & breakfast there, we were so content with the oven fresh breads and croissant and the quality of the food. All in all , we were so happy and surely will come back again with all family members. My love of nature is completed by the surroundings , mini organic farms, aquarium , authentic Burmese cat village, birds chipping around the hotel . Thanks for your wonderful service & experience , Hotel Heritage ! Stayed April 2017"

Satri House: "A pleasant stay"

Review by: Rosemarie G | Source: Trip Advisor
"We stayed here for four very comfortable nights...a quaint hotel, comfortable rooms with a balcony....very antique furniture collections from all over the world...and some special touches. It's not hard to find yourself lost here with all the different walkways to different rooms etc. took me a couple of days to finally get it right!!! Service was excellent.... In the afternoons a knock on the door with a small snack....mini bar restocked each day. Wifi good. Easy access to the town...not far to walk. No tv...which is a plus to relax and enjoy. There is a library! Full breakfasts were lovely...we had cooked every day..starting off with a large fresh fruit salad and yoghurt. Staff and management were friendly and helpful. We paid the bill and received a farewell gift. Thank you Satri House."

Rachamankha: "Lovely and serene"

Review by: AndoverDan | Source: Trip Advisor
This hotel is a lovely and serene property in the bustle of Chiang Mai, very traditional in style. The pool facility is excellent. Breakfast is excellent. The room was spacious and comfortable. However, the door is made of very heavy wood, and the only window fin the room faced a wall, so the room felt a bit like a cell. Service was gracious, if a bit impersonal. The hotel is located on the eastern edge of the Old City. It is a long walk to the daily morning and night markets, but very convenient to the Sunday night walking street.

Locavore: "Put Locavore on your bucket list"

Review by: Robert O | Source: Trip Advisor
"We had heard rumours that the food at Locavore was the best in Bali. I've been around...this is the best I have experienced ! Some consider it expensive at about USD$60 a head with wine but the experience of mindfully eating this other-wordly cuisine was priceless. It was my birthday and I intend to celebrate this way every year at least. I recommend sitting at the bench in front of the team of geniuses creating your experience where you can engage with them."
