Sea Dance Resort: "Terrific – Like joining a community!"
We are a family of four and stayed in a two-bedroom pool villa over New Year's 2017-18 for four nights. There were several other families there as well. The owners and staff made us feel very welcome, and the food and facilities were top notch. The best part was the new year's party, which made everyone feel like we'd been invited to someone's house to celebrate - really a fun time, we recommend the Seadance to everyone.Satri House: "Perfect in every way"
"Spent 4 days here exploring the lovely city of Luang Prabang. After a hectic 2 weeks in Vietnam this was a welcome oasis. From the moment you enter the property you feel a world away from the noise outside. Close by there is a temple so you can hear the soft chanting off and on throughout the day. The staff are attentive and helpful, the pool is lovely and the breakfast was excellent and the rooms gorgeous and comfortable. A 10 minute walk to the night market and chaos of downtown. We were lucky to be there for the beautiful full moon and end of lent celebration. What a sensory treat. We highly recommend!!"The Island Lodge: "Great weekend get-away from Saigon"
We spent a wonderful weekend at the Island Lodge Beautiful surroundings, great service. An extremely convenient destination for weekend get-aways from the hustle and bustle of Saigon. We came with our toddler and everything was made easy for him and us. The bike and boat tour was lovely.MesaStila: "Colonial-era dream"
This place is probably the most beautiful original place where we stayed in Indonesia. The location is just wonderful, surrounded by volcanoes and the forest, the villages around are also nice and authentic. We were based here while visiting the temples in central Java and although you need a car it's so worth it! We had booked one of their plantation villas but they upgraded us to a bigger room which was basically a house with a wonderful wooden terrace overlooking the jungle. The decor is simply amazing, it includes some antiques and follow the traditional Java style. The whole complex has been carefully renovated so that it maintains its Colonial era character and it truly does. We also had a nice walk in their coffee plantation and enjoyed the restaurant. The spa is really something else, not cheap but absolute luxury, definitely worth trying! We also found the service outstanding in every aspect, including room service. Wi-fi was also working well in the room.Maison Polanka: "Beautiful retreat in Siem Reap"
Maison Polanka was a fantastic retreat from the heat, noise and activity of Siem Reap. All the rooms are beautiful and unique. The staff are lovely and helpful and the food fresh and interesting. Would definitely recommend.The Island Lodge: "Peaceful visit"
We stayed here after a day on the Mekong Delta. The staff are really attentive and go out of their way to welcome you and look after you while you are there. The pool is brilliant, the gardens are exquisite and we really enjoyed the beautiful French food.Reverie Siam: "Paradise in a small town"
"RS was an amazing hotel in a very busy small town. It was truly wonderful to escape back to after a tiring day in the heat and humidity of Pai. The staff here are so welcoming and very accommodating. They greet you so warmly all the time. The shuttle tuk tuk was also very handy as it is almost impossible to find taxis when walking the streets of Pai. The breakfast menu was very impressive. Everything cooked to order. Try the Pai scramble. We took the family room which had the largest bathroom I have seen for such a size hotel. Beds were very comfortable and all the locals amenities provided in the bathroom are very nice touches. The soaps were great - lemongrass and coconut, all locally sourced and natural"David’s Kitchen: "Perfect dinner in Chiangmai"
The food was amazing! I️ had the duck and it was cooked perfectly. David was so friendly and he even recommended some restaurants to us in Phuket. This is a first class restaurant!Mudanwan Villa: "“ㄧ個令人非常放鬆，可以每天仰望藍天白雲、天馬行空、發呆的好地方”"
"二年多前因爲家裡發生ㄧ點令人傷心難過的事情，乾女兒推薦了我去那兒渡假散散心，果真在那兒住了幾天，有如來到香格里拉，與世隔絕的感覺，頓時也暫忘憂愁。 每年牡丹灣總會梢來訊息，送了優惠折價卷，提醒會員再去渡假（那感覺是提醒我們該回家了），牡丹灣Villa 真的讓人覺得，台灣真好，不出國也能像在國外渡假，ㄧ日五食，愛發呆、愛游泳、想騎腳踏車出遊或在圖書館看書或spa按摩⋯想怎樣就怎樣⋯就是這麼放鬆，這是我二度造訪 牡丹灣Villa ，我們全家出遊，看見大孩子們忘卻城市工作的煩惱，放鬆心情在那遊泳、發呆、吃吃喝喝，不自覺中意外的接到工作 cases ，那喜悅真是難以形容。 Stayed June 2016, traveled with family"SEEDS Restaurant & Lounge: "Excellent, an example for culinary experiences"
"This is my second visit to the Seeds. The garden enchants me again and again, especially the sunset at the lake is simply a feast for the eyes. Culinary, Felix cooks at a high Level. His well-balanced dishes are professionally served by proud and motivated staff. Accompanied by the evening we were by the charming Lucia. Her courteous and friendly manner as well as her hosting abilities fulfilled every wish. All these people are united as a strong team, creating an atmosphere that invites you to linger and enjoy. Lucia and Felix are great examples for staff management in the hospitality industry. This is immediately noticeable as a guest. It will definitely not have been my last visit to the Seeds. Kind regards Urs Auchter Working for development aid as Swiss Master Chef in Yangon."
