Inle Princess Resort: "Wonderful resort"
This place has simply gotten things right. The service is amazing - staff constantly surprised us with their foresight and attention to details we sometimes forgot eg offering bottled water for our bike ride, calling ahead re our flights, farewell gifts, organising and accompanying us on our trips out, closing our window shutters in the evening, offering blankets when it got cold dining outside. It goes without saying that the resort is beautiful with spectacular views of the lake and the furnishings and design are tasteful. Decent selection for breakfast with something new each day. Homemade yoghurt was delicious. Dinner and lunch menus were also different each day - food was all tasty but wholesome and clean. The rooms are huge and comfortable. Only regret is we should have booked a lake view room, well worth the extra dollars!Tugu Bali: "Secret pearl"
"It was the second time in 3 years that we stayed in this lovely boutique hotel. The dedicated staff takes 24 hrs. care about you and you are not a ""number"" in this hotel. The food served is delicious and the atmosphere is relaxed. We will absolutely come back in this ""secret pearl"" when we will visit Bali again."Supanniga Luxury Bangkok River Cruises: "Dine in style on the river"
This is a wonderful way to see some of Bangkok’s major attractions at night as you pass slowly by sipping Tattinger champagne and eating delicious Thai food.Rachamankha: "Amazing"
The staff here were super amazing I would reccommend staying here Location was great and very comfortable with a great breakfast The staff were sooo easy to get along with We had one incident with the washing but clothes are cheap enough that it was funny in the end Cheap and awesomeLe Du Wine Bar & Restaurant: "impressive, upcoming"
Food is earnest with subtle fancies. Tight limited menu but impressive offerings with fusion cuisine at best. This establishment wins over many established restaurants.Locavore: "Experience of a lifetime"
"First of all: YOU MUST BOOK AHEAD if you want to go to dinner; lunch is less in demand and somewhat easier. We had the most amazing evening with friendly and efficient staff, an elegant and comfortable dining room - with plenty of space between tables, such a luxury - and then the food. Our party of three included one who is violently allergic to shellfish/seafood so with great care and input from the chefs, an alternative menu was chosen for her that included dishes from the vegetarian menu as well as safe dishes from the meat/fish menu. Then we sat back and the dishes started coming. Not only is the food exquisite, but the dishes (or rocks!) on and in which it's served and beautiful too. We settled for the seven courses and even though each is little more than one or two mouthfuls, it was more than enough and every dish was a surprise and beyond delicious. My favourite (apparently I'm not alone) was the quenelle of Bloody Mary sorbet on a slice of frozen tomato that then had a little jug of hot and clear tomato broth poured over it. More like essence of tomato than broth: absolutely marvellous! Didn't have the matching drinks as I felt a puritan need to walk out under my own steam, but wine is an easy alternative and uniformly and reasonably priced. The chef-owners are passionate about local and fresh produce and experimenting – and it shows. Altogether a memorable evening."Sukoon Houseboat: "Perfect luxurious houseboat, great service, food and location."
We booked the suite at the back of the boat which was very quiet. Babu the waiter was fantastic. The food was really great, had the best momos (even in Nepal/Tibet they are soggy and poor quality). The little motor boat to take us to and from the shore was perfect. Definitely take a little Shikara for an hour's boat ride. Take time to relax and enjoy the houseboat though. Good book and some Kashmiri tea, perfect.Villa Song Saigon: "Gorgeous Hotel"

"The menu and service was superb! The place is quiet and full of character. My father had difficult to manage the stairs to get up to the restaurant, so the managers arranged for us to have dinner downstairs. we were served hand and foot by our incredibily humber and eager to serve waiter Imran, who was both polite, discrete. I don't recall the last time we had such wonderful service, Imran was great! My father who is very high maintenance, even complimented Imran and said, its wonderful to be served by someone who understands the etiquette of the table. When we were leaving, we shocked by Imrans humility when after running up and down the stairs all evening and attending to our every need, said ""please forgive me if I made any mistake serving you tonight! Fine dining and fine service with an excellent menu and a place full of character! Stayed December 2016, traveled with family"Cuca: "Great food and presentation"
Wonderful knowledgeable staff and great service. The food was excellent. We had a wide variety of dishes and everyone was very pleased with the quality and taste. Been back many times and can't fault the place.Travel Asia with Secret Retreats
