Misool: "If it was possible to give Misool more than “5 Stars”, I would!"

"This was hands down our best vacation ever! Yes, the destination in itself is dreamlike and exclusively unique; however way beyond that is the amazing staff who work there who truly go above and beyond to make sure that guests have the most memorable experience ever. Assistant resort manager Sue regularly communicated with me via e-mail over a year prior to our trip constantly answering questions, and tailoring accommodations to suit our desires for our trip as well as coordinated many surprises for us when we arrived. Dive/Recreation manager Sabine worked out a schedule with me that provided an even distribution for time underwater and to engage in different tours & activities they offer at the resort. Sabine (a kick-@$$ photographer btw) even took personal time out of her day and assisted my wife and I with an anniversary photo shoot for us. The food at the resort is absolutely delicious. We did not have one bad meal there. The only thing remotely negative about the resort experience is that the ferry boat to get to Misool is a bit ""challenging""; however, in the grand scheme of things, it is a minor negative. My wife and I are fortunate to travel to many great destinations and while we entertain the thought of making return trips, we often decide to explore a new destination. However, after our experience at Misool which was without a doubt our best vacation ever, we are definitely going to be planning a return trip in the future! If you enjoy diving, snorkeling, remote solitude, tranquility, and the most delicious meals, I highly recommend taking the journey to experience this fabulous luxury eco-resort."

The Island Lodge: "Excellent"

Loved this place with the super friendly staff, the welcoming owner, the huge room, the tour which we took and was guided by an excellent guide. I highly recommend for a couple of days after the busy Ho Chi Min City, it’s like a peaceful heaven. They were very flexible on check out timing too and let us stay for a couple of more hours.

Golden Buddha Beach Resort: "Total paradise and relaxation exceeding expectations"

"This was our first visit to this amazing resort. The journey there, from the welcoming sign at the airport, to a quick efficient drive to our boat to the bay, exceeded our expectations. The arrival view was mesmerising: a wide open bay with a vast long sandy beach with a little hut for lunchtime and a yoga sala, and of course dense nature. Massi, the manager, embodied true professionalism. He welcomed us to our beautiful house Baan Tamarind and gave us thorough details about the resort's amenities. Our house was beyond our expectations. With two stunning bedrooms both with an amazing view of the sea, and stunningly designed outdoor bathrooms, we also had an amazing living space upstairs as a canope amongst trees with a sunset view everyday! The food was probably the peak of the stay. The Club House has been renovated in a spacious way that makes you feel at home away from the busy city life. There is a new menu EVERYDAY (something rare in the hotel industry where after a few days, you run out of culinary options) with completely different meals - each very distinct and deliciously made at defying prices for the quality. The staff constantly walks around with smiles on their faces and are always available if you have an inquiry. The morning buffet and cooked meals are my favorite. You get to sit outside or inside (your choice, although I recommend outside due to the beautiful sea view) and make your own freshly squeezed juice. They have an amazing tea selection and of course the fruits are exquisite. I specially recommend their Thai omelette with rice - a must have during your stay, truly a taste of Thailand! I cannot describe the joy I felt when going to get massages. Porn and Poy are possibly the kindest ladies and although they may seem gentle based on their graciousness, their hands work wonders. I have had back problems for quite some time and honestly, felt rejuvenated every time I came out of the massage sala! The Thai massage is a must. In all, the hotel was anything I could have asked for. You are truly immersed in nature, at night hearing the strangest most relaxing sounds from this rich ecosystem to walking on their vast empty white sand beach with a light breeze brushing against you in the bright sun. Room Tip: Sea front views are the most rewarding due to the proximity to the beach and stunning view!"

Rachamankha: "Amazing Hotel and great Staff"

We stayed there with my girlfriend and we had such a wonderful time. The hotel is perfectly located in the midle of the old town. It is a beautiful place, with great service, The breakfast was fantastic, while their restaurant is also very good for dinner, if you are ready to spend a bit more than in the city restaurants, would definitely go back there

Tugu Malang: "I didn’t stay here but had 1 lunch, 1 dinner, and the hotel tour with Ibu Poppy"

"If there's one regret I had in my Malang trip is NOT booking this hotel. It is Super amazing. You see, I've travelled in Indonesia extensively for work and play and one of my woes is the lack of seamless service beyond Bali. Well, Hotel Tugu Malang meets superb global standards and more. The minute I stepped in (flabbergasted from the icky Rumah Makn Inggil) I was warmly welcomed by Ibu Poppy. Even if I wasn't staying she warmly invited me in to the lunch area. I took photos around the beautiful hotel and she volunteered to give me a tour of the hotel and tea after! Everyone speaks impeccable English. Food arrives fast. Yes this is a big deal in Indonesia!!!! If you have been here Long enough you'll understand my delight. Thank you so much for everyone's warm hospitality, the reasonably priced yummy meals, the free tour and tea. Malang is not easy to get to from where I live, but if I go back to Malang - it's Tugu Malang or nothing!"

tugu lombok: "A place you’ll remember forever"

"I've seen quite a few big and luxurious resorts, but I can guarantee that my stay at Tugu Lombok will remain in my mind like one of the most amazings I've ever seen. The beach of the resort is one of the most beautiful white sand beaches I've ever seen, the calm of the resort and the accomodations are amazing, the food is to die for...and the staff is always taking care of you. The villas are simply so beautiful, clean and astonishing that leaving them is quite painful. A paradise on earth. "

THE ISLAND LODGE: "The most caring hosts"

"The island lodge is a very special place. From the moment we arrived we were made to feel like welcomed guests. We did the bike/boat tour with Michael through the banana plantations and seeing the locals going about their daily life, not another tourist to be seen. Every body is very friendly. And the whole lodge is beautiful. We will definitely return to the island lodge if visiting Vietnam. "

Cuca: "I need a six star button to review this"

Great location, stunning food, beautifully presented. Cuca is right up there among the best restaurants I have ever had the pleasure in eating in. I have been several times already and I love this place - and thankfully I live very nearby!

Rak Ko Jae Seoul: "A peaceful"

This hanok is very beautiful. I had a peaceful moment when staying there. The food is delicious and the host are very helpful and nice. He is a good English speaker, it is easy to communicate with him and he is always in quick respond. Definitely, I will stay here again and highly recommended!

The Island Lodge: "A gem on the Mekong river"

"A peaceful place located on a small island on the Mekong river. Perfect gate away from Ho Chi Min. Nice view on the river. Great staff and team. Awesome a la carte breakfast much better than any buffet. Possible to take boat to visit the other islands and not far away from Cai Be floating market. Very authentic and warm welcome. Do not hesitate...run for it."
