The Island Lodge: "A Great Place for Weekend Getaway"

Review by: Kin S L | Source: Trip Advisor
"A very nice boutique resort, one hour drive from Ho Chi Minh City. Stayed one night at this remarkable resort for my family of four. Relaxed and enjoyed totally with the attentive service from all the staff. Restaurant offer good food and beverages with reasonable price. The sightseeing tour is sufficient and good for the kids to explore the locals in Mekong Delta. Only one negative comment is that the wifi connection in room was not stable throughout my stay at The Island Lodge. Highly recommended for a short trip stay (2 nights) away from the bustling of Ho Chi Minh City."

Tugu Malang: "Keramahan ditengah kota malang"

Review by: Deku_Kertorahardjo | Source: Trip Advisor
Having a strategic location amid poor town, close to the city center and the train station. The hotel staff were friendly and the facilities were excellent although vintage ... In the afternoon there drinking tea is free for guests while enjoying delicious snacks. For breakfast there was no buffet menu, but do not worry about the food choices will not disappoint.

MesaStila: "Amazing stay"

Review by: asiatraveler1964 | Source: tripadvisor.com
I just returned from Asia and spend a wonderful night in this hotel. I arrived in Semarang airport which is about 90 minutes away. Transfer was perfect and car comfortable. Driver very nice. Amazing driveway to hotel. Once we arrived I checked in overlooking this lovely property. Room was very large and comfortable . Bed was huge and so was the bathtub. I had lunch in their open air restaurant . There is a lot to do in and around the hotel. The spa is great and I had a fabulous 2 hour treatment . Dinner was also very good with a good selection of wine . Next morning I did the coffee plantation tour with one of their lovely staff. All was perfect ! Room, food and service. I would come back for sure .

Rahai’i Pangun: "The most AMAZING travel experience I’ve ever had"

Review by: AussieWonderlust | Source: Trip Advisor
"My friend and I booked a 3 day/2 night cruise through Tanjung Puting National Park to visit the orangutan feeding stations. We left from Kumai and spent 3 of the most amazing days of our trip on the river, in the jungle and seeing the monkeys, orangutans and other wildlife in their natural habitat. Our crew were a sensational group of people and made the trip so much fun. Our tour guide Ari was so knowledgable about the area and knew the orangutans by name. We had one of the best cooks who consistently produced meal after meal of the most amazing fresh food. Sitting on the boat and cruising down the river made us feel like royalty. We were well looked after by the crew and they took great interest in pointing out wildlife along the way and involving us in different aspects of the trip. I cannot recommend this experience more highly to anyone thinking about a similar trip or experience. A number of reviewers have commented on the congestion of tour boats on the river detracting from their experience. We found the complete opposite. We loved the feeling of community during our trip and interacting with other tourists and crews, and sharing this rich experience with them. WOW Borneo were a pleasure to deal with from start to finish. They were easy to get in touch with and always responded to our questions within hours. If you're looking for a tour provider, WOW Borneo is a great option."

Slow Villas and Spa: "Super Romantic Private Oasis"

Review by: alejandrasusana | Source: Trip Advisor
"I am an architect and have very unique houses of our own that we rent, so I am extremely particular when it comes to staying elsewhere. We decided to escape Ubud for Gili Air for Jaime's birthday. Wow! We had a perfect romantic birthday getaway and honestly had a super hard time leaving our beautiful villa at Slow. Slow is carefully designed, with attention paid to all the small details that matter to a designer like me. It is comfy and extremely romantic and private. We felt like we were in our own private oasis. The staff was wonderful and prepared a birthday song for Jaime in 3 different Indonesian Languages. So sweet! We had a lovely massage at their stunning spa. The breakfast was yummy and a feast for the eyes and I love their handmade dishes. I have a sense of what other accommodations are available on Gili and I would never consider staying anywhere else. Huge praise for SLOW! Room Tip: I think all the rooms are equally beautiful! Rooms are prettier than in the photo>"

Mie Cafe: "Little Oasis with amazing food"

Review by: Jacqui N | Source: Trip Advisor
"The courtyard garden and restaurant is a quiet oasis with its calm gentle atmosphere is a welcome relief from the hustle , bustle and noise of downtown . Aside from that the food is sensational, an Asian fusion dream. We opted for the gourmet menu and the vegan menu which were not only delicious but great value at $28 and $21 dollars respectively. The food was very fresh, tasted delicious and presented well. The vegan baked Aubergine was delicious and both the gourmet chocolate and vegan chocolate desserts were heavenly . Sorry we didn't have a extra night to go again and would really recommend you fit a visit into your time whilst in Seim Reap."

Satri House: "Beauty, serenity, luxury"

Review by: Shalini M | Source: Trip Advisor
We spent 4 days at this stunning boutique hotel, which manages to balance stunning luxury and tranquil relaxation. We were a large group- 3 families with children of all ages in tow, and the staff and manager made each of us feel welcomed and looked after. The lush gardens, beautiful pools, cinema room, heritage buildings with wonderful antique filled rooms, spas and excellent restaurant ensured that each person in the group was happily occupied. I wish we could have stayed longer! Thanks for a memorable holiday, Satri House team

Tugu Bali: "Paradise within Paradise"

Review by: Julie G | Source: Trip Advisor
"My husband and I were gifted an incredible trip to Bali. We stayed 4 nights at Hotel Tugu Bali and it was the best choice possible for lavish relaxation! We were treated like a king and queen from the moment we departed immigration. Picked up at the airport with refreshments waiting for the journey in to Canggu. The hotel staff were kind and gracious and attentive at every turn. Our room, Rejang suite, was amazing. Each night we were literally lulled to sleep with ocean sounds as we slept in a perfectly comfortable king size bed! Perfect for a relaxing rest for two tired teachers! We ate breakfast in our room and in the hotel lobby overlooking the beach. We walked in Canggu and enjoyed the shopping and some cool food. At night, we ate in the Amazing Japanese restaurant Ji - the food was heavenly and so good we kept coming back! We had a super cool cocktail and the kobe style beef was to die for! The restaurant is in the most amazing rebuilt temple over 300 years old. If you come to Bali, you have to come to Hotel Tugu and do not miss out on Restaurant Ji. The entire stay was relaxing. And on that note - book a massage because they are gifted in that area as well!! Thanks Hotel Tugu! We will be back and tell all our friends about our amazing stay with you! Room Tip: We stayed in a suite. Rejang! Definitely an excellent choice!"

mudanwan villa: "Tranquil and GREAT hot spring facilities!"

Review by: Shirley C | Source: tripadvison.com
"I have stayed in Mudanwan for 2 night with my family. We got a big room on the ground floor with our own hot spring pool and swimming pool in the back yard (privacy guaranteed), a large bathroom with another indoor hot spring pool, two king size beds, and it was just fabulous!!! We went for a full board package and the food was just gorgeous and fresh! There's a 24 hr juice/snack bar too. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly, and the services were just great. We really had a fantastic time there. Although the location is really in the middle of nowhere, they do offer a nice shuttle service. "

Satri House: "serene-gem-with asian art and antiques and large rooms among asian gardens"

Review by: MisoMK | Source: Trip Advisor
This property is a gem. It is close enough to town to walk yet far enough to provide quiet in a hidden beautifully decorated (with art and antiques) colonial landmarked property. The service was sublime - and I wish I could have just stayed for a few more days - or moved in..... The pool is set among the gardens - and the rooms are large, clean, and the decor makes one feel as if you are staying in a prince's palace. This is the opposite of a large cold global branded hotel. Thank you to Satri House for a fantastic holiday.
