Flower Island Resort: "Excelente!!"
Nos hospedamos 5 noches con mi familia, el lugar es increible! La playa es espectacular, el personal del hotel es muy amable!! La verdad que nos sentimos muy bien alli, cuando te hospedas por mas de 3 noches te llevan gratis de excursion a la granja de perlas y a otra playa para hacer snorkel y pasar parte del dia, la comida es muy buena, si bien no hay mucha variedad es muy fresca y muy rica. Un lugar que vale la pena conocer de filipinas!!Inle Heritage Stilt Houses: "Outstanding"
"From arriving at the jetty and throughout our stay everything was just perfect. The rooms are very nice, food at the restaurant delicious and service is very friendly and professional. Guided by the teachers of the Vocational Hospitality School students try to outdo each other. Nearly 50 students attend the school, a wonderful project by the non-profit Inle Heritage Foundation. Proceeds from the hotel, the restaurant, the gift shop are used to offer free education to people from the region and further away, carefully selected by their capacity to meet the demands of the hospitality business. The school is considered a benchmark in the area and beyond, the efforts of the foundation are to be admired. Many thanks to all the staff (Min, Thazin, Naing Win, Ye Wint, just to mention a few who's names we remember) for a wonderful stay. Stayed October 2016, traveled with family"Les Maisons Wat Ko: "Idyllic setting, quality accommodation."
We stayed for 6 nights in a delightful room, located in one of the 3 Khmer houses located in a tropical garden, with lotus pond and a fabulous pool. There were plenty of comfortable lounges and sun beds all with sun canopies to shield us from the strong sun. The pool was a perfect temperature. The food was beautifully presented and the set menus were delicious. The breakfast choice was excellent, and served over looking the garden. Tea and coffee was available all day if the dining area, there was plenty of comfortable seating around the lotus pond and in a covered in area out of the sun if preferred. The crockery used was unique and made by Cambodian Artisans. The staff were very attentive and gave us brilliant hints and advice about tours etc. The drivers we had, were arranged by the hotel and drove very safely and we felt relaxed on our drive to Siem Reap airport. All in all a beautiful place to stay in a very friendly atmosphere highly recommendedDewakan: "still good….very good"
"fusion food.. east meets west. using all the local herbs and spices to produce fine dining atmosphere. amazing and impressive. location could be better but it is nice to leave the city area for such a treat. well worth a try... well done chefs! keep it up."Babe: "Breath taking food in an amazing vibe"
"I went to Babe for my last dinner in KL and I couldn't find a better way to end my trip. Everything with this place is magnificent; the atmosphere, the interior, the staff and, of course, the food. I'm a vegetarian so usually it's a little bit harder for me to get that mind blowing experience I know a lot of meat eaters get when they are in places like this. However, this time that wasn't a problem. I tried eight of the vegetarian dishes and each one of them reached above my expectations. I started with the compressed caesar salad which was the best caesar salad I've ever had. Instead of bacon you got a crispy salty coconut flake - such an innovative way of making vegetarian food fun. The dishes kept on rolling in and the majority of them literally exploded in my mouth (when you go there you will understand what i mean). A must try is the watermelon carpaccio, the potato puré with onion jam and the beet root role. And also, if you are a fan of miso soup - it's the best I've ever had. Besides the food I had a couple of drinks and they all kept the level. Try the Malaysian tea - it's so delicious! When leaving this place it came to me that it won't be long until I visit KL again. Thank you Babe for giving me an experience I'll never forget."Dewakan: "Three Stars or 3 Hats….. in our books"
"""The obvious is that which is never seen until someone expresses it simply"" - Kahlil Gibran. This perfectly sums up what Darren Teoh and his team at Dewakan are doing. I profess guilty to being surrounded with these wonderful ingredients and yet be clueless as to their potential. Darren is taking these humble ingredients, injecting playful creativity and reintroducing them into the fore where they belong. Here one can expect to have boundaries challenged, pushed and yet moulded into familiarity. In this off the beaten path kitchen, flavours and textures are being routinely forged. Whilst I appreciate that everyone has their own personal opinion of good food, I suggest preconceptions be left at the door. This is my second visit to Dewakan and once again I leave in awe of mother natures bounty in the hands of a true maestro. "Rachamankha: "just SUPERB"
"this Home is a real secret adress you are right in heart of the old city of chiang Mai location cant be better, closed to all the major temples and activities! the building is so charming we were like a beautiful naste our room , number 24/25 was so spacious , cosy , confortable and with a beautiful decoration and so peaceful the pool is perfect , massage so good even if they dont have their own therapist they call them from outside the food so good really nothing to say just go and enjoy it !"Inle Princess Resort: "Extraordinary for Myanmar"
"Luxury tourism is new for this country so I don't expect things as to be as good as Thailand.This is one of the two best hotels in the entire country. The other is the Governors residence in Yangon.This Hotel has five-star accommodations and five-star service in everything except the restaurants. The restaurants are four star. Unfortunately I was not able to get a lake view room but my Gardenview room was beautiful. Had an awesome massage at the spa.The staff could not be more accommodating. Recommend this as the number one hotel to stay at in Inle lake. Stayed February 2017, traveled as a couple"Mathis Retreat: "perfect stay in ubud with endless view over the rice fields"
Amazing peaceful place to stay and relax. About 10 minutes drive out of Ubud center, you can walk through the rice fields down to Ubud center. The rooms are very clean and the food is very delicious at the inside Terracotta Restaurant.Tiger Mountain Pokhara Lodge: "Stunning"
What a joy it was to arrive at this serene, beautiful place. The staff looked after us to ensure our stay was as wonderful as it could be, nothing was too much trouble. The views are spectacular, it is just perfect in every way and i do so hope to return one day.
