Sanak Retreat Bali: "just wonderful"

Review by: alexandrar228 | Source: Trip Advisor
"probably my favorite place in Bali. Sanak Retreat is the perfect place for family. the place is stunning, with a very nice restaurant which serves an excellent food, the pool is just in front of the restaurant and allows the parents to enjoy a drink while watching the kids having fun. The rooms are really cool and cozy. The massages are great. We absolutely adore the activities for kids, kite flying, balinese dance, rice harvesting, preparation of the offerings.... the personnel is super nice, we will come back, it was just an amazing experience Stayed August 2016, traveled with family"

Sandat Glamping Tents: "Perfetto"

Review by: Kikifrancazzi | Source: Trip Advisor
"Ho prenotato questa struttura un po' alla cieca ma mi è rimasta nel cuore. Sono rimasta colpita dalla struttura, sono rimasta colpita dal tatto e dalla gentilezza con cui lo staff ti accompagna in una realtà così diversa. La stanza è molto curata sia negli arredi sia per quanto riguarda la pulizia. Abbiamo alloggiato nelle tenda con piscina privata ed è stata un'esperienza unica poter sentire i rumori della natura all'interno di una tenda dotata di ogni confort. Ubud è vicinissima e il resort ha delle navette gratuite con cui raggiungere il centro. Il responsabile Kendu ci ha aiutato in ogni nostra richiesta e necessita..Impeccabile! Stayed January 2017, traveled as a couple"

Dewakan: "What an unexpectedly amazing meal"

Review by: Mei T | Source: Trip Advisor
"My family surprised me with a birthday dinner. Initially I didn't want to go because its so far away from where we stay. Dewakan opens only for dinner and had its location inside a university college, which didn't make me think that it could be good. The roads leading towards it is really dark and it was raining. When we arrived to the restaurant, it was dark too and they had only 2 set choices in the menu. 5 course (RM180) or 10 course(RM240). It is also mentioned that everyone should order the same menu. So we ordered the 10 course. The food was excellent and very creative, using local produce to its best. There are some stuff that I had never tasted before and it was pure delight to savour the creation. Our RM240 menu consists of: 1. Cured mackerel with ulam, pomelo and local flowers 2. Roast mushrooms with green curry past, yogurt 3. Braised aubergine in mushroom stock,jackfruit seeds, garlic emulsion. 4. Home made noodles with prawns, radish, cold prawn broth (MY FAVORITE) 5. Pike Conger with custard, roasted okra, clams foam (my least favorite, taste fishy) 6. Roast duck breast with beetroots (very yummy) 7. Roasted quail with masala spice, serunding, century egg (very good too) 8. Mulberries wt cardamom ganache, cashew brittles, pucuk gajus (amazing flavors!) 9. Gula Melaka marquise, sour meringue, pulut ice cream (too sweet for me) 10. Warm Chocolate tart, with jackfruit, gandum icecream (Wow!) The amazing varied menu above totally attacks our senses and taste buds and it was a really lovely dinner. Service was good and efficient but towards the end slowed down a bit. And I guess we were really tired by then cos its 10 course, what else could we expect. Our full tummies and the dark room make us sleepy too. 10 course is really too much to handle. Next time, we must have the 5 course instead!"

Tugu Malang: "Prachtig hotel met uitstekende voorzieningen en vriendelijk personeel"

Review by: Peter B | Source: Trip Advisor
Bij aankomst was meteen duidelijk dat dit niet zomaar een hotel is. Door de prachtige decoratie en authentieke inrichting is dit een van de mooiste hotels die we tijdens onze reis bezoeken. De kamers zijn luxueus en ruim. Het personeel is bijzonder vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Een echte aanrader voor de veeleisende vakantieganger. Met name de afternoon tea is erg leuk om wat te snoepen en leuke mensen te ontmoeten om gezellig mee te babbelen

Jing’s Residence: "Little bit of paradise in Pingyao"

Review by: latestfilly | Source: Trip Advisor
"The Jing's residence is a lovely hotel right in the center of Pingyao. Pingyao itself is quite noisy, however you don't hear this at all inside the hotel. We booked a courtyard suite, which was actually two courtyard rooms converted into one room, with bedroom, sitting room, walk in wardrobe and bathroom. All very nice and the complimentary mini bar was a nice touch too, plus there is a turn-down service on a night. We ate in the restaurant which it is the most expensive restaurant in Pingyao by far but we really enjoyed the food, service and having the entire restaurant to ourselves! would recommend. We also had the afternoon tea which contained a selection of savory and sweet finger food (local to the area), along with Chinese tea of your choice. The ginger and lemon tea is particularly nice! The staff at the Jing's are all very efficient, pleasant and happy to help - a feat you do not normally get in China so this makes it stand out straight away. Would 100% recommend this hotel, its worth the extra pennies!"

Cuca: "Fav restaurant in Bali"

Review by: Jennifer R | Source: Trip Advisor
"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"

Les Maisons Wat Ko: "Superb"

Review by: OKWhite | Source: Trip Advisor
"Incredibly beautiful place to stay! Even though it is located in a busy town, the cleverly designed garden makes it so secluded and tranquil that one feels that it is in the middle of a beautiful country side. Beautiful! Rooms are wonderful and spacious. But my favourite was the lovely porch where my husband and I spent every night sitting listening to gecko lizards and watching fireflies. It was so beautiful and really heart-warming. Food was really, really good, especially my favourite and one of the restaurants' specialities - the deep-fried frangipani flower! Finger-licking good! Yummy! Really loved it! My husband and I enjoyed the hotel so much that we wish we stayed there longer, it is really worth staying at. Most recommended! "

David’s Kitchen: "Best Restaurant on Trip To Thailand"

Review by: Rochelle L | Source: Trip Advisor
"I recently visited Davids Kitchen on my honeymoon to Thailand. My husband and I came in with high expectations given the incredibly positive reviews. It was the most fantastic dining experience I can remember - I wish I could give it more than five stars. The host, Tea, was chatty and delightful as we waited for our table. He ensured that the table was customized for our arrival with personalized flower decor for our honeymoon celebration (and a bouquet for me upon departure). The staff was incredibly attentive throughout the evening. The chef came by before we left for feedback on the meal (which was superb so we could only lavish him with praise). Davids Kitchen was a highlight of our trip to Thailand and certainly a highlight of our time spent in Chiang Mai. I cannot recommend strongly enough for a truly special (and delicious) evening."
