Mathis Retreat: "No words can explain this place"

"After two nights we've decided to extend our stay! It's a romantic place This place us right in the middle of the rice fields, impressive nature the only noise you get here is from the nature, green all around. We had a really good massage surrounded by nature The service is great and polite, their Terracotta Restaurant is one of the best of this area, we had an amazing dinner here. The management is very helpful, they gave us lot of advices."

Villa Mathis: "Amazing stay at Villa Mathis"

We come back from a short stay at villa Mathis, and we miss the place already. All was fabulous thanks to the manager Mr. Frank and his helpful team. All was organized on time to satisfy any of our desire. The place is gorgeous, we stayed in tropical garden where we ate delicious food in a so romantic atmosphere. Thank you Frank again for your daily help and we hope to come back soon in your lovely compound. Cheers.

Heritage Suites Hotel: "Perfect Place to Spend the Rest of My Life… If only I could."

My sister and I shared a bungalow suite and felt very much like queens. She's used to 5-star service, but I'm still a little awe-struck. The room was large with a sitting room, private outside area, and a large king sized bed, with a sturdy mattress and high quality bedding. The service was wonderful. While all of the staff were friendly and helpful, stand-outs for our stay were Sim and Sippa. They were both very attentive to our needs, and suggested things when we asked questions, and Sippa was able to find several options when we told her we wanted to see an Apsara dance. Breakfast is included and is delicious. The coffee was wonderful, the fruit ripe and tasty and the mini croissants and pain-au-chocolats crafted the French way. We ate at the restaurant for dinner once, and we all loved the food. I'm a vegetarian and the chef made sure I could eat eggs and added one to my rice and veggie dish. Tip- get the passion fruit sorbet. To Die For. The pool was lovely and we had drinks two afternoons in a row sitting by the pool. We also got massages while there- they are excellent for relaxing massages but if you're going in for some kind of sports, technical, injury related massage, my advice is to wait for your regular masseuse and enjoy their relaxing massages, which are very good. We had a wonderful time and hope to return one day. The return flight about killed me, but this place is worth another visit.

Hotel Tugu Lombok: "Idyllic honeymoon"

We spent the final week of our honeymoon at the Tugu & I would return in a heartbeat! A beautiful setting, nothing is too much trouble for any of the staff, fantastic spa, food, activities... We were lucky enough to have a private day on their dragon boat which included guided snorkelling - I was sceptical at first as to why anyone would need a guide but my goodness, he proved me wrong! He spotted so many creatures we would never have noticed & even managed to lead us into the middle of wild turtles swimming. Dinner on the beach was a nightly event, massages under the stars - you name it & the staff will make it happen. It was so difficult to tear ourselves away! A huge thank you to all the staff at the Tugu for giving us such a wonderful stay (especially the fab room cleaning team who made the most amazing towel animals I’ve ever seen & made us laugh every day!)

Nimmu House: "Paradise in Ladakh"

"I stayed in Nimmu House during a trip in Ladakh organised with a group when we had to go trekking. We stayed in Nimmu before and after our trek. This place was so peaceful and it was the perfect place to have a little rest. We stayed inside the tent in the garden which are just amazing and cosy with all facilities and much more than what you could expect after trekking in Ladakh. The inside of the house is also very special and has his own story which is quite interesting. At night, we enjoyed the bonfire and nice drinks outside all together. Food is very wonderful thanks to Maya and menu is different everyday. We had Chocolate Mouss, Chocolate Pie and also Lemon Pie which is so nice French people The atmosphere is very friendly in Nimmu house :) Manon, her husband and Audrey take good care of their customer and are always available to discuss with you about any enquiries you have regarding the services, the house or any kind of thing. I really like to thank all of them for this wonderful stay in Nimmu which was so special for me as it was my birthday and they made it so nice for me :)"

Nam Bo Boutique Hotel: "Beautiful Boutique hotel in perfect location"

This is a wonderful "boutique" hotel. There are only seven suites and they are essentially one bedroom apartments with excellent views of the town and river. The service was first rate and the breakfast was wonderful. Served on their rooftop restaurant, it was delicious and allowed you to watch the little city wake up. The restaurant on the ground floor has both indoor and outdoor service and the food is very good and reasonably priced. We would definitely stay here again and strongly recommend it to any travelers.

4 Rivers Floating Lodge: "Relax and switch off"

"Stayed here for two nights in a lovely ,clean, well equipped floating tent. All the staff were really friendly and keen to share details of the property and surrounding area. Hopefully it will remain free from wifi and phone signals as it is a refreshing change to unplug from everything and just slow down and enjoy the surroundings . Some details from the stay that are hopefully helpful -Approx 20 min scenic transfer by boat to the lodge with ample room for suitcases etc. -Good quality toiletries and plent of towels. -Mosquito nets integrated into the tent with extra flaps to close if it rains. Insect repellant spray in the room. -Electric and ceiling fans to cool the tents. -Good choice for meals with a daily changing set menu or a la carte menu. All the food and drink we had was really nice ( salad and ice cubes etc all safe to have here) -Choice of excursions during the stay We had an all too short stay here and wish we had stayed longer. If you want to relax and slow down then this is the ideal place"

Mathis Retreat: "A disconnected enclave, perfect for unwinding"

"This is a great place to just relax, slow down and unwind. It is secluded property with a stunning rice field view and an infinity pool. The property can be hard to find, as the resort has undergone a brand change and the boards for the new MATHIS are not updated. So best to have your driver call the hotel for directions. The rooms are clean, extremely spacious and we used 3 persons in a room (with an extra bed charge) and it was still very comfortable for us. All amenities are provided as best, and the quality is excellent. The breakfast is very fresh and dinner options are quite good. The menu can be expensive for the style of resort it is - and there are few options immediately outside. But its not far from the bustling marketplace & the resort runs a ferry pickup and drop every hour during the day, which is very helpful. The wifi is very good. The TV has few channels and is very bad reception. The staff are very helpful, but sometimes find it hard to communicate easily. The property manager is very kind and does well to mingle with guests where possible. I would definitely visit again."

Cuca: "Fav restaurant in Bali"

"We were staying next door at the Ahimsa Villas and popped in here for last minute dinner before we flew home I wish we had more time - it was amazing - tapas type dishes - all superbly presented. They recommended 3 dishes per person which was about right We followed the advice of the staffer our selection of dishes Highly recommended"

Cuca: "Great food!"

This interesting concept restaurant had Japanese inspired tapas. The food and service were excellent! We really enjoyed the broccoli Caesar, the ceviche, the meatballs and the meat and potatoes. Good for kids as well!
