Le Du Wine Bar & Restaurant: "Another visit, another success!!"

Review by: Tim Z | Source: Trip Advisor
"I have been coming here on and off for a couple of years now and I am yet to be disappointed - this place is just very consistent and you can tell the head chef is actively keeping on top of his game with new creations as the seasons change! Anyone looking for exciting takes on classics, sustainable ingredients cooked with passion in a welcoming environment (and healthy glasses of wine paired) you really can't fault the place! Keep up the great work guys!!"

4 Rivers Floating Lodge: "Best TRIP EVAAA"

Review by: henryvong3388 | Source: Trip Advisor
I really love this trip to Koh Khong. The hotel is amazing, more than my expectation. They created ways to help to protect the forest. I felt amazed after the trip and told everyone about it. Even though it's expensive, Miss Anna gave us a chance to have 3 days and 2 nights there for free. I can finally be one with nature and it's my first time to visit such an adventurous place that I wanted to be there forever. They helped the community and protected the environment there.

Nimmu House: "A really nice change of pace"

Review by: tigertomPackwood | Source: Trip Advisor
Most people spend their first night in Ladakh in Leh (the site of the airport) which is fine, but another- and arguably better- option is to drive one hour west to the village of Nimmu near the confluence of the Indus and Zanskar rivers, and stay at the wonderful Nimmu House. I stayed in one of the excellent and comfortable tents, which were both spacious and quiet (unlike Leh). The food was really good, especially the lemon chicken which was absolutely delicious. The staff is friendly, and the only improvements I could suggest would be some better grounds maintenance. I would definitely stay here again!

The Village House: "Perfect for those going to the Rainforest Music Festival"

Review by: Alexlc211 | Source: Trip Advisor
"My husband and stayed here for two nights while attending the rainforest music festival. We are so glad that we found the village house. -Great and friendly service at point of entry -owners were very kind and friendly -Clean great hangout area with pool and hammocks in the courtyard. Perfect for mid afternoon swims before the nighttime performances at the festival - all meals included - fully stocked bar which made it convenient to have a drink - transport provided to and from the cultural village It was a little hard to find, but not impossible. Would consider staying here again when we go back to the music festival."

The Island Lodge: "Mekong Delta Dream"

Review by: Steve G | Source: Trip Advisor
"The Island Lodge is spectacular. Set in a stunning location on the edge of the Mekong River, the hotel boasts beautiful SE Asian design & decor, plus food & drink to delight even discriminating travelers. The dining and pool area overlook the river with views that are mesmerizing. There is a lovely spa treatment facility and all this, less than 2 hours from Saigon. The Island Lodge is a Delta dream!"

Arumdalu: "Incredible Private Resort on Beautiful Belitung Island!"

Review by: Kathy M | Source: Trip Advisor
"My husband and I enjoyed five fantastic nights at Arumdalu Private Resort. We were actually the only guests at the time, so our visit was indeed private! William greeted us at the airport, and took excellent care of us at the resort. We had the pleasure of meeting the owners, Mr. Agus and Ms. Siannie, along with their son, Albert, and daughter, Caroline, and they were extremely kind and welcoming. Our chefs, Tonny and Anton, prepared delicious Indonesian dishes that were served by Dana, Angie, Cha Cha, and other wonderful staff at the beautiful Sahang Beachfront Cafe and Resto. A wonderful young man, Sue Wep, taught us how to make our own batiks, which was a new and enlightening experience. Our driver, Mr. Insani, was very competent. Lovely Meela, at reception, was very welcoming. We enjoyed a day trip with William and Mr. Insani around the island, enjoying excellent coffee, delicious lunch, and spectacular scenery. Upon leaving the resort, we were presented with a fabulous gift of a beautiful batik and a collection of post cards of the resort. It was an excellent vacation on a remote Indonesian island, accessible by a one-hour flight from Jakarta. "

Rachamankha: "Beautiful Boutique Hotel"

Review by: blakeHK | Source: Trip Advisor
"Location is within the square but a little bit out of the main shopping and food areas in the old town of Chiang Mai. However it is only a 10-12 minute walk into the main central food areas and this slight isolation gives the hotel a sense of pure tranquility that is difficult to find in this bustling little city. Another bonus is the hotel is right next to one of our favourite temples (Phra Singh Temple) The property itself is pure class; the courtyard is stunning and there is plenty of places on the property to relax and read a book or take in the amazing architecture, art and culture that is oozing from this gorgeous hotel. The pool is beautiful and again another great place to relax and unwind. The staff are friendly but not over bearing which we found perfect. Sometimes staff can get a little too familiar but not in this case. The restaurant was fabulous and the breakfasts although not large were perfect to set up the day. There were a few things that were not 100% but over all we were very happy with our stay and would certainly go back. The WiFi on the property was not strong and would often drop but luckily we bought a pocket WiFi so wasn't a big issue. Although the staff did spray often there were many mosquito's around but we bought some bug spray at the local 7/11 and used it in the room before we left each evening. Also the rooms were appointed with mosquito nets which was great. There was also a real lack of power points in the room. I would take a power bar with you if you are expecting to charge anything more than a phone...but I guess this place is for relaxing and not for electronics ;)"

Chakrabongse Villas: "Quiet oasis, great location"

Review by: rtwnomads | Source: tripadvisor.com
The Oriental Villa was perfect for our family of 4 (kids 10 and 8). Great location to explore the highlights of Bangkok. Dinner on the river was outstanding, and Ms. Atom reserved us a table at Sala Rattanakosin (within walking distance, also on the river) when their chef was off and it was equally memorable.

Manda De Laos: "Luxury dinner but good quality"

Review by: Tifii | Source: Trip Advisor
This was the first restaurant we tried. Perfect for couples with romantic atmosphere. One of the most expensive restaurant in Laos I would say, but the food is worthy.

Mudanwan Villa: "Very comfortable stay memorable trip"

Review by: K囍 | Source: Trip Advisor
A parked five food meal of the trip make you feel sloppy, but will not eat too much discomfort, slowly on a road course, every kind of side dishes also carefully executed, like the fruit of it all day, can be a freshly-cut fruit anytime, anywhere. The park has its own lake, with its own spa, with its own swimming pool, free Shihai can go to a nearby borrow a bicycle around the wound. In fact, the whole trip is to stay comfortable with two words to describe, would not say what really incredible place but just a good space, just good service, just a good atmosphere, just good food, it all just right on he created a special
