Tugu Lombok: "A Week In Paradise"

Four adults and a 2 yr old, we had a wonderful relaxing week at this hotel. The style is rustic/antique, beachfront. The rooms are scattered around the grounds and only a short walk to the dining, spa etc. The staff were very attentive and made a big fuss of our grandson. We had a variety of dining experiences,all of which were amazing - Royal Dining Experience, and on the beach not to be missed. They also were able to arrange a babysitter for us and boat trips to neighbouring islands, with snorkling on the way.

MesaStila: "Two nights are NOT enough"

Spectacular resort set within a coffee plantation. Think being on yr 60 m2 terrace While facing forest and a Volcano, while you r hearing the Muezzins prayers. Breakfast and Dinners r great with a lot of European food offer (practical if you have kids and you do not want always discuss). Great Service and a lot of activities, such Yoga and Java dance classes, included in the price.

MesaStila: "Mid week getaway!"

I was expecting to be able to unwind when I got to MesaStila, what I did not expect was how quickly it happened. There is something magical and memorizing that happens from the moment you arrive. The entire resort is amazing. The staff just so gentle and warm. Even the food has healing and comforting elements. First day was spent just relaxing, getting to know the property. Our villa was spectacular and had all the mod cons we needed. Day 2 we experienced the Hammam Spa. Four months of stress disappeared after the 2 hour treatment- what an amazing facility this is. It rained for part of the time we were there which just added to the amazing experience. Reading in the clubhouse, watching the rain and mist. The resort takes you back in time but will all the modern conveniences. We also did the coffee tour, I love my coffee and now love it even more after listening to the delightful Lily explain how the coffee is grown, harvested, roasted and packaged. Thank you to all the staff of MesaStila for being so genuine! We will be back!

Cheong Fatt Tze – Blue Mansion: "Very memorable stay"

Lovely hotel with a historical character. I am the owners have committed to conserve and preserve this piece of history. Highly recommended! Free guided tour and narration of the hotel's historical significance.

Reverie Siam: "Loved it and will definitely come back"

"This hotel came strongly recommended by a friend and I wasn't disappointed. Though it's not far from the relatively busy center of Pai (the resort provides a free shuttle service), the Reverie Siam feels like a different world. It's perfectly peaceful, with nothing but mountains and green fields as far as the eye can see. There's a lovely colonial aesthetic to the place and an attention to detail that I really enjoyed (books left open to specific passages in rooms, benches engraved with quotes). The staff honestly couldn't have been more thoughtful. From arranging a dinner reservation and dropping me at the restaurant to purchasing bus tickets and making sure I got a good seat for my return journey, they definitely went the extra mile to make my time more enjoyable. The breakfast, which comes with options like cappuccino French toast with caramelized mango, is also a big plus. I'm looking forward to coming back here. It's the perfect spot to curl up for a weekend and I'd happily recommend it to anyone."

Supanniga Eating Room: "Delicious lunch in a fabulous setting"

Casual but well thought out setting; more importantly a very satisfying meal! Fresh & tastey; & service was efficient. Few dishes that I saw on menu that I will make a return visit in the near future.

Maison Polanka: "Amazing!!!"

My husband and I recently stayed at Maison Polanka for our honeymoon. From he moment we arrived we were blown away! The staff was unbelievable! They we were warm and welcoming and went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. The hotel property is beautiful and the room was very clean and cozy. Breakfast was delicious! We also had dinner at the hotel a few nights and the food was superb! We were sad to leave this special place and can't wait to return.

Glenburn Tea Estate: "One of the most amazing places we have ever stayed"

"We stayed at Glenburn for a long weekend. It was an unbelievable experience. Set in a truly unique location the estate is immaculately kept. Very nice rooms with magnificent views. The dining room is one very large table where all quests eat together. The food is excellent. The estate arranged various trips for us. They are very accommodating. We took a long walk down hill, several hours through absolutely gorgeous tea plantations. At the bottom Glenburn estate has a little cottage where lunch (with cold beers!) was served. We could have walked back up, but chose to drive back up. Very convenient. its the perfect place to unwind and relax and get a feel for this unique part of India."

Inle Princess Resort: "beautiful resort"

A really magical relaxing place. The arrival by boat is a real treat. Be warned : its COLD!. esp in the morning and evening (ask for a blanket!) . Beautiful dining room and bar. Rooms are spacious , if a bit gloomy. But we hardly spent any time there anyway. Way to cold to use the outdoor shower , and oddly no shower over the bath. Do ask the staff to light the fire in the room : amazing briquettes give out fantastic cozy heat. 200 range rooms are quite a way from the lodge , and never get the sun on the balcony/verandah.

The Village House: "Amazing retreat!"

I stayed here with my boyfriend for two weeks, using it as a base for our day trips around the area. The hotel is gorgeous, very quiet and secluded. The staff were wonderful very thoughtful and very happy to help. Food was also fab, I would recommend doing the Taste of Borneo! xx
