Inle Princess Resor: "A longer stay"

Review by: 875pamela | Source: Trip Advisor
"A visit to lake inle was a magical one ,and staying at the inle princess was the icing on the cake .The setting was so peaceful in a quiet backwater ,our room was fabulous we couldn't have asked for more ,it overlooked the lake which had numerous birds flitting about from bushes to reeds what a setting to watch sunrises and sunsets.We had everything we needed for a perfect stay even down to binoculars . The food was excellent and all organic you could taste the difference ,everything was locally produced the hotel had its own area for growing all types of produce . To our surprise the even had 2 cat lodges as they are trying to preserve the Burmese cat breed . Just for the final touch both myself and my husband were given a gift of a traditional Burmese bag Heaven"

Cheong Fatt Tze – Blue Mansion: "Excellent say in a period mansion"

Review by: vultureMelbourne | Source: Trip Advisor
"My wife and I stayed here for 9 nights recently in the traditional Nanyang room and the enormous 50's retro rock n' roll style room. The mansion has undergone a superb restoration unlike the mostly shabby restorations seen in similar historic buildings in China. A lot of care and love has gone into this great house. The staff were all excellent and helpful. The breakfast in the superb dining room was a highlight. The food was a basic buffet supplemented with cooked to order choices. Everything was fresh and tasty. Did not try the inhouse restaurant but other guests we spoke to recommended it. Location is excellent. Will come back again."

Cheong Fatt Tze – Blue Mansion: "Lovely stay"

Review by: Indiangirl | Source: Trip Advisor
Stayed for one night for my birthday, such a beautiful and iconic place to be. It is full of history and has more character than any other place I have stayed at. Breakfast and staff were lovely, would definitely stay again. A unique experience

Les Maisons Wat Ko: "Best of cambodia"

Review by: sulunz | Source: Trip Advisor
We travelled from Phnom Penh to Siem reap and stayed 2 nights at this beautiful place. We arrived in the evening, then the staff organised a fantastic day trip for us. One more evening and we had to check out. Breakfast was wonderful. Service amazing. Room authentic and lovely. This was my favourite place to stay in the whole of Cambodia. There is a reason Angelina Jolie stayed here when she made her latest film. It's the best. My only regret...I wish we had stayed 4 nights. Battambang deserves more time than a quick stop over.

Sea Dance Resort: "romantic stay in paradise"

Review by: kkp75 | Source: Trip Advisor
Sea Dance was a romantic place to stay for our 5 nights in Koh Samui. It's about a 7 minute drive from Chaweng but the property itself is tucked away from the main road and major downtown areas. We enjoyed the cooking class, the friendly staff, the free kayaking, the swing on the beach, our private pool and the main resort pool, beautiful ocean views, and live music on 2 of our 5 nights there! The staff are all very friendly and professional.

Villa Song Saigon: "A haven in Saigon"

Review by: bjm20 | Source: Trip Advisor
A great quiet riverside property in district 3 only a short boat ride (complimentary) to the centre. Great attentive service and great food all round. Breakfast was inclusive a la carte and available all day which we thought was a really nice touch. We really liked our room (206) with its terrace and views. We would definately recommend and stay here again.

Bassac Cruises: "The perfect Mekong overnight cruise"

Review by: Debbie T | Source: Trip Advisor
"We travelled on Bassac III from Can Be (2.5 hrs from Ho Chi Min) to Can Tho (4 hr return to Ho Chi Min). It's a lovely boat with very friendly staff and excellent food. We arrived in pouring rain so the staff made sure we were 'umbrella-ed' from shore to boat. The rooms are small, as they'd said, but so charming that we didn't notice. We did the right thing by leaving our main luggage in Ho Chi Min, so we only had a small case. The bathroom is a 'wet room', which looked like it'd soak everything but it didn't: it worked brilliantly! The cruise route was clearly explained and very interesting, including a guided walk around a very small Mekong hamlet to see their homes, fields and farming, school, rice wine distillery and even how they harvest methane! We were treated to a huge selection of local fruit in a local garden before re-boarding. In the morning, we toured a floating market in a 'bus boat' which was fascinating. The river is very smooth so the cruise was too, despite frequent downpours and a bit of gale at supper time. Excellent food - and lots of it - and a really friendly and interesting guide. Our cruise was full with 24 people on it (4 the day before and 2 the next day!) and we were beautifully looked after throughout. Definitely recommend this trip!"

4 Rivers Floating Lodge: "Wonderful location, and purpose to build eco tourism in Cambodia"

Review by: john20182018 | Source: Trip Advisor
Gorgeous location, and the resort working with local villages to support a sustainable economy and environment we were impressed with. The waterfall close by is lovely and being able to kayak and paddle off your tent deck, whenever you want was lovely, peaceful and good sunsets as well. Food was good and the transport both ways was easy, and well organised. The staff were always extremely helpful and cheerful which really added to the experience.

The Hue House: "Hard to find paradise"

Review by: Musicbones | Source: Trip Advisor
"What a beautiful magical spot!! You couldn't ask for a more perfect way to cap an evening after a hectic day in Ho Chi Minh City. You have the feel of walking into a Buddhist Temple from a Japanese garden - except it is perched on the 10th floor overlooking the city you just conquered. The authentic Vietnamese food did not disappoint. We were waited on by helpful staff in traditional dress. We were the only ones there our night - perhaps, because it was rainy outside, perhaps, because it was hard to find, or, perhaps, it is just too new and hasn’t built up the word of mouth. Please, help them and go, you will feel very lucky to have had the opportunity. Getting here is the trick. We never saw a sign. All we found was a security guard to one of the buildings on this short block - just east off the Turtle Fountain/Pond. It is the big steel & glass office building - go into the lobby and press the 10th floor from the elevator. It takes you to paradise."
