Manda De Laos: "Romantic dinner by the pond"

We stayed at Maison Dalabua (same property) and were lucky to get reservations the first night of our stay. Great food (Laotian with a French touch). Good cocktails and all at very moderate prices - maybe not for local standads (one can eat cheaper in town) but considering the quality of food very reasonably priced.

Jing’s Residence: "beautiful boutique hotel in the antique city of pingyao"

The Village House: "Ruhe nach dem Abenteuer"

Im Anschluss unserer Rundreise haben wir ein paar Nächte im Village House bei Flora (eine herzensgute Dame) und ihren Kollegen verbracht. Perfekt geeignet zum Abschalten. Ja, eine Moschee befindet sich direkt gegenüber und der Prediger mag einen das erste Mal "wecken". Aber who cares?! In anderen muslimisch geführten Teilen dieser Wet verhält es sich genauso und sollte kein Störfaktor sein. Die Zimmer sind gemütlich hergerichtet, die Badezimmer großzügig konzipiert, das Essen schmackhaft & frisch (nur die Crème Brûlée besteht zu 90% aus Butter ;) , der Pool herrlich erfrischend und sauber und die Liegemöglichkeiten eignen sich hervorragend, um einen ganzen Tag am Pool zu liegen, dort zu lesen sowie Musik zu hören und die Seele baumeln zu lassen. Ein Supermarkt & Foodcourt ist NICHT fußläufig zu erreichen. Taxis sind jedoch spottgünstig und Fahrräder sind gratis auszuleihen. Am besten nutzen sie die Strände bei ihren Aufenthalten zuvor. Der Village House Strand in ca 300 Meter Entfernung ist nicht zu empfehlen. Also, solange Sie wissen, was Sie wollen, bekommen Sie mit der Ruheoase Village House genau DAS, was Sie wollen. Toller Abschluss.

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

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.

Locavore: "The best restaurant in Indonesia"

After 7 years living in Indonesia I would say that this is probably the world's best restaurant of Indonesian cuisine and Indonesia's best restaurant. Aspirational, creative, sophisticated, surprising ... and truly local. This is not a copy of something else.

Heritage Suites: "Beautiful Oasis in this Amazing Place"

The wonderful feeling of this hotel began at the airport when you are collected in a vintage Mercedes - they give you a cool wet towel and a long cool drink. The hotel is slightly off the beaten track but it is such a beautiful place to return to at the end of a day of sightseeing and the peace and tranquility are priceless. We would not stay anywhere else. The staff were so accommodating (even when the roads outside flooded and they had to sandbag the entrance). The General Manager was always around and smiling and was so interested in what the visitors had to say. We had a bungalow which is larger than you will get anywhere else and had all the conveniences you could want or need. The pool and the food just completed the entire wonderful package. I didn't want to leave

Cuisine Wat Damnak: "Amazing food and service"

The chef was amazing, very personable and greeted all his guests. The food was amazing and we tried both menus. I have to follow a gluten free diet and the chef made sure that some elements were changed for me. However, saying that there was very little on the menu I couldn't eat. Very fresh tasting food and good value. The service was amazing and we had a very relaxed meal. Will definitely be visiting again,

Neeleshwar Hermitage: "Quiet, restful luxury"

"Located on a beautiful stretch of beach, the Hermitage is perfect for a relaxed stay. The staff is excellent - very courteous, attentive & helpful. It was a pleasure to be able to have all our meals by the ocean as one of the restaurants is on the beach. We had a very large room & a gorgeous open-to-sky bathroom. Definitely going back! Stayed December 2016, traveled with family"

Rakkojae Seoul: "Oasis in Seoul"

A wonderful experience of traditional Korean culture and hospitality. Gracious, generous service, beautiful ambience and superb breakfasts. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff. We thank them again.

Inle Princess Resort: "Beautiful and quiet lake site resort"

"We arrived at the resort by boat from Nyaung Shwe. Some 100 m from the hotel, motors are no longer allowed. A rower came on board and leg-paddled us to the jetty. This exemplifies the resort's emphasis on quiet and relaxation. Our cottages were on the lake. From the terrace, the sunsets were beautiful. Our room had binoculars provided for bird watching. A spa with a massage menu, bicycle rentals, and a swimming pool rounded out the offerings. Breakfast and dinner on a sundeck were tasty and included a sampling of local and Shan cuisine. I highly recommend the resort. Room Tip: Lakeside cottages were private and delightful."
