Anopura Resort: "Heaven on Earth"

I have travelled extensively all over India for more than two decades and never come across a more perfect haven - the most wonderful respite after hectic days at JLF and the hurly burly of Jaipur. It is so rare to feel so spoiled in such an unspoiled setting of invigorating sweet air and such pleasing aesthetics. Ishwar and his team are without parallel for their genuine hospitality, highest standards of solicitous service and sheer warmth. There is so much to admire about this sanctuary - the pleasing artistic details, the supreme comfort, the cosseted sense of privacy and privilege and the most outstanding food.I cannot commend this place enough as somewhere to come to be at the still centre of the world, to rest and revive. One night is not long enough and even before leaving, yearn to return. Congratulations to everyone involved in this exceptional boutique project.

The Island Lodge: "Perfect start to our Vietnamese adventure."

"Beautiful hideaway in the middle of the Mekong Delta. Room, food, staff and pool amazing; we loved our stay. A special thank-you to the wonderful gardener who jumped fully clothed into the Mekong to rescue my bifocal glasses when they accidentally dropped into river ! Thanks Amanda & Martin x"

Yandabo Home: "A special place"

"Having enjoyed our river cruise from Bagan, we were whisked by a small boat to arrive at Yandabo Home and a warm greeting from the staff group. A real achievement to create this boutique hotel here, off the beaten track. Simple bedroom with a high quality bathroom and products and food well presented. Friendly staff took us to visit the local villages with tea and biscuits on the way on the boat back a nice touch. Thanks to all the team. Stayed February 2017, traveled as a couple"

Nimmu House: "Un vrai paradis"

Très belle découverte que cette magnifique maison ancienne, et ces tentes raffinées au milieu d'un verger. Escale parfaite pour s'acclimater à l'altitude avant un trek, où se détendre après! Toute l'équipe aux petits soins, une cuisine variée et délicieuse. Magique!

Amata Lanna: "Angie and Eva’s celebration trip to Thailand"

Tips are discretionary and we tipped daily. They have a shared tip box, but of course you can tip individuals. We found hetaff very appreciative of our tipping and in some cases it seemed they were pleasantly surprised

Les Maisons d’Itac: "Absolutely Amazing!"

It's no wonder that this resort is listed in Secret Retreats www.secret-retreats.com - probably one of the best resorts in the South Western part of Cebu Island, what a find! The resort only has 5 accommodation types from houses to studio types. Very modern, staff excellent, manager amazing, food fantastic - I can say all wonderful things about Les Maison d'Itac! Plus, it is absolutely child friendly, the pool is located in a safe distance and the beach is only 2steps down, we were never worried having kids around. I would highly recommend this resort to anyone visit Cebu! I will definiely return in the future.

Mathis Retreat: "Paradise in the ricefields"

"We had such an amazing time at Kenanga Hotel. The place is located in a perfectly preserved location in Ubud. Surrounded by the ricefields and the palmtrees, the bungalows look beautiful and are very comfortable. Everything is super clean! The swimming pool is perfect as well and allows you to enjoy the peaceful landscape while relaxing in the water. The staff is adorable, smily and very attentionate to the customers' need. Karine, the French Manager of the hotel is extremely kind and helpful. She will help you if you need anything to plan your visits and to improve your experience at the hotel. You can also have a nice walk in the ricefields all around at sunrise and/or sunset time. The restaurant is also delicious and offers high quality food at a good price. Try it! I would deeply recommend this hotel. Just go there and forget everything else!!"

MesaStila Resort and Spa: "Wonderful get away in central Java"

This is a wonderful resort set in the middle of a coffee plantation. A cool respite from the heat of Yogyakarta, the service in this resort is first rate, from the front desk to the restaurant etc. My wife indicated that the massage she received in the spa was one of the best she has ever had. The breakfasts were fabulous, the views awe-inspiring, and the arrange tour to the Borobudur temple was excellent. My only negative is that the fitness equipment was really second rate and not operational when I was there. But everything else was great!

Samanea Beach Resort: "Best kept secret resort in Kep"

One of the first thing that caught our eyes upon our arrival at the resort is how green this place is! Everywhere you can see shaded trees, flowers and tropical plants of all sorts and types-all are well manicured and arranged such that they seem to hug the bungalows in such a harmonious way! The resort itself is located on the side of Kep that's away from the tourist crowds! So here all you can hear and see was the soothing sound of crashing waves, of bird singing, and the evergreen color of the nearby mangroves...You truly felt immersed in nature, at peace with yourself and the environment. The staffs working here were just as friendly and comforting as the environment. They all greeted you with a genuine smile on their face, sometimes a little shy which was in itself charming. One of the managers, Jonathan had gone out of his way to make sure we had a relaxing and enjoyable stay: from recommending the best crab restaurant in town to arranging complimentary transport to pick us up from the border crossing with Vietnam. The bungalow room was very spacious with a cozy living area. However, the most charming feature of the room is the outdoor shower and bath! Very relaxing and romantic to say the least! The resort was only five minutes tuk tuk ride from the crab market and restaurants so going out for dinner or shopping was very convenient.

Tugu Bali: "Perfect Style, Excellent Location"

We spent 5 nights at Tugu Bali and just fell in love with the hotel from the minute we arrived. It's rustic elegance, historical decor and art, and exceptional staff make it the perfect place to stay on Bali's southwest coast. Best of all, you're far enough from the crowds of those tourist traps Kuta and Seminyak. Though the food at Tugu Bali is very good, the hotel is right across the street from a very lively beach club (though you won't hear it) and several other beachside cafes. Most of the action in Canggu is 2 kilometers up the road, leaving you in solitude
