Jing’s Residence: "Amazing stay"

Amazing stay in a beautiful hotel, furnished with a delicate taste, managed by a dedicated and welcoming staff. A place we do recommend to everyone willing to retire from buzzling china and yet still experience china…

Arumdalu: "God’s wonderful creation"

Saya sangat puas dengan pelayanan dari arumdalu, ketika sampai saya disambut oleh driver dan dibantu untuk koper saya. Ketika sampai saya disambut oleh minuman selamat datang, untuk villa sangat menakjubkan dimana bentuk bangunan sangat unik dan eco luxury, sangat menakjubkan bahwa arumdalu menanam sayur dan buah yang digunakan untuk menu makanan yang disajikan, ruangan villa yang saya tinggali sangat bagus kolam renangnya dan gazebonya sangat unik, kebersihan villa sangat dijaga, dan fasilitas kamar villa dari ranjang kamar mandi dan lainnya sangat mewah sesuai dengan harganya. Fasilitas dan service sangat baik dan worth it sekali untuk harga villanya. Dan disana saya dijelaskan tentang eco concept arumdalu dimana mereka menjaga sekali alam dan pantainya. Air buangan mandi dan kolam renang mereka recycle dimanfaatkan untuk tanaman yang mereka tanam, panas dari airconnya pun digunakan untuk water heater air untuk mandi, dan juga tidak menggunakan pompa sama sekali sehingga mereka menggunakan gravitasi. Concept mereka sangat amazed buat saya. Dari pengalaman saya menginap di resort setiap negara dan daerah pinggir pantai, tak ada satupun yang memikirkan konsep ini. Untuk makanan restauran sahang so yummy. Makanan yang disajikan sangat unik, yaitu bebek dalam sangkar. Recommended untuk makanan ini, saya juga minum aladine summer night its so refreshing. Disana saya berjalan dipinggir pantai dan sejauh mata saya melihat keindahan dunia dimana saya sering traveling ke pulau dan pantai, pantai arumdalu belitung sangat cantik dan bersih, dengan ombak yang tenang membuat semua kejenuhan akibat bekerja dikota hilang semuanya, relax dan menyatu dengan alam. Tempat ini sangat cocok untuk honeymoon bagi pasangan muda mudi millennials. View di pantai ini sangat indah disaat sunrised. Bagi kalian pasangan muda mudi yang honeymoon dan orang yang ingin relax dan menyatu dengan alam so recommended.

Rachamankha: "Awesome, fabulous and stunning"

Beautiful hotel in great location, inside the old city 2 blocks from the main road. Zen like experience with great food, staff and rooms. I am an experienced traveller who have gone to some hotels and left within 2 hours. This was perfect.

Maison Polanka: "Personal service in a green oasis"

"Where else will you find hotel staff that welcome you back after a warm bike trip with cold towels and a smile? This is what makes Maison Polanka special; the personal touch. Every small request is taken care of. Room is gerat, pool fabulous and the food super yummy. I casually mentioned that my husband and I were on holidays for our wedding anniversary and just before we left, we received a Congratulations card, signed by all staff. Super sweet!"

Neeleshwar Hermitage: "Relax and revive – the perfect place"

"We arrived in the dark after a tiring ten-hour car drive from Kochi and I thought I heard thunder. In fact it was the Arabian Sea pounding the extensive beach and in the morning we could see this magical place. A healthy breakfast on the beach and we were ready to relax. Many have given full positive descriptions so I don’t need to repeat those and the web site is accurate. Instead I will highlight just a few things that impressed me. I now have to watch my diet carefully and the wholemeal breads, fresh fruits, variety of fish are perfect. The menu includes various juices and I went for spinach but asked for some ginger too; I bet that will be on the list next time. All the food is superb, healthy and interesting. The aerial sketch on the website does not do it justice; there are many palm trees and the gardens are quite beautiful, spacious and well maintained. Contrary to some other comments I would recommend a sea view cottage without hesitation. There are only 18 cottages and they are carefully arranged; the peace is almost tangible. In fact the whole place has been designed by a skilful hand with great attention to detail and that includes the cottage interiors. Anyone who reads my reviews will know that I look at issues that might be relevant to those with mobility problems. There are a few steps to each cottage but the pathways should be OK. Internally the doors have very strong springs and help would be needed. For those with weak knees or limited use of limbs may find the bathroom a bit difficult. As a retired architect I know how it grates to put in grab handles. I hope the owners will consider seriously putting one close to the WC and another in the wonderful non-slip shower area. These things are important for those in need but I must emphasise that standard of design is very high. I wanted a full Ayurvedic body massage and had three; all were excellent. All that others have said about the atmosphere, management, welcoming and helpful staff etc. I endorse. No one could want for anything more. My wife and I seriously considered extending our week-long stay which is a testament in itself. Room Tip: Sea view cottage but all seemed very good."

Golden Buddha Beach Resort: "Fabulous Stay"

"Visually stunning. Romantic / Family getaway Such an original and beautifully furnished resort clubhouse, set in a parkland of native trees with stunning individual luxury houses. Ours consisted of two traditional stilt houses with interconnecting balconies. Two vast unspoiled beaches. We love the walk along the beach and enjoy beach cleaning - every little bit helps! The resort also has once a week beach cleaning day. We saw plenty of hornbills. Beware of the monkeys. They can be quite entertaining but shut all your doors and windows when you leave the house. Every Saturday, a seafood grill buffet starts off with cocktails on the beach, where you get to meet more of your neighbors which is very nice and the atmosphere is great too. Valeria and her staff pay close attention to detail, which makes for an unforgettable experience. Stayed March 2017, traveled with family"

Supanniga Eating Room: "Great Thai"

Recommended by a Thai friend. The food was excellent. Great service as well. The restaurant was full on a Tuesday night, you have to book. At least a dozen people came while we were eating and had to leave, because it was fully booked. My husband prefers his food not too spicy and they accommodate him. All the dishes we tried were excellent! Very good value and nice atmosphere.

Misool Eco Resort: "Dream Holiday"

"This place is AMAZING. Best place I've ever stayed. It's the one place I'd go back to. Again and again. Or indeed, just never leave. If you dive, it's incredible. I've dived all around the world, and this was by far the most outstanding and varied I've seen anywhere. But it's not too shabby above sea too. The rooms are incredible. You walk down into the sea and swim. With incredible wildlife. We had great food too. All in all, it was all round excellent. I really really can't wait to go again. It's a b**** to get to from London, but it's worth it."

Rachamankha: "A taste of heaven!"

This has to be our all time favourite hotel, anywhere. It is such a beautiful complex in every way. The rooms are so serene and comfortable. The problem here is you never want to step outside. The breakfast has to be 6 star rated, and the coffee's great as well. Thank you Paul and your fabulous staff. We loved the New Year party and will be back for more. It's a slice of heaven.

Satri House: "A gem of Laos"

My wife picked this hotel. I was very impressed with this choice. It was unbelievably comfortable. Staff were friendly and accommodating. Since we stayed more than a week here, we changed room twice to get different feel. Money was well spent.
