The Village House: "Village house"

Review by: A TripAdvisor Member | Source: Trip Advisor
"From the get go I was impressed by this place, the pool, the decor, the rooms, the cleanliness, convenience, service, food and drinks. The Village house was perfect for our large group of 11 offering us the convenience of having almost everything in the one area. We could enjoy each others company easily and still have a basic needs met easily. Pool, cocktails, food, relaxation. Not sure why others have given a lower review. Staff are lovely and polite. If anything the staff may not understand exactly what you are saying, but hey youre in another country and they are doing their best to understand you. Rephrase it, try again and embrace it! Food is fine, lots of options...some western options may not live up to westerners expectations...but why are you eating that anyway? Youre in another country! Embrace the food! :) I really enjoyed sampling a bit of everything Cocktail prices are resonable if not cheaper than other places (alcohol in malaysia is expensive) had a great time drinking by the pool This place is great and did I mention its clean!"

Satri House: "Paradise in Luang Prabang. It makes the greatest choice of this trip."

Review by: Rubychan84 | Source: Trip Advisor
"This isn't going to be an easy review as there were many great points and didn't want to be missed. Hospitality was superb. GM Giovanni, Julie, and the team from Satri House were professional, helpful, attentive, always eager to make our stay better as possible. Room and ambience were exceptional. Room was spacious, clean, in colonial. The bed and pillow were very comfortable and clean and I had slept very well. The turn down service and snack was a great touch. Restaurant served one of the best food we had in Luang Prabang, we dined here every day throughout our stay for lunch and dinner due to the quality we can be assured of. None of the dishes we ordered has disappoint us. GT pasta, mekong fried whole fish, red curry with duck, lemongrass stuff pork were our favorite. Price was very reasonable too. Breakfast was great with fresh bakery and jam handmade by themselves. I missed the pineapple and tomato jam so much, they were really delicious. The service crew were very attentive and always eager to help. To an extend, they were flexible to cook fried noodle which was out of standard breakfast compliment menu for my husband as he requested. To sum up, every thing seem to be very well thought for guest in all aspects. From giving choice of welcome drink and to have it in library or inside room, putting straw hat (1 for male and 1 for female) in guest room and benches besides swimming pool, mini movie room with complimentary pop corns, library room, using natural lemongrass essential oil to repel mosquitos, decorations with antiques, it was truly an amazing experience not to be missed. Thank you once again to the whole Satri House team for making our wedding anniversary stay a truly memorable one."

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"

Le Calao: "Lovely place, delicious food"

Review by: Barbgreece | Source: Trip Advisor
Oh yes, and a great spot, excellent cocktails and perfect service. We’re just back from a wonderful dinner there, and very pleased. We had exclusively Lao food, and loved it. Good luck with the new endeavor.

4 Rivers Floating Lodge: "Absolutely beautiful place, such an unusual but wonderful stay"

Review by: Avril G | Source: Trip Advisor
"The setting is spectacular. It feels so remote. Although the accommodation is canvas, it is so well equipped inside it was better than some hotel rooms we'd had. Proper flushing loo and double hand basins with a lovely shower. There was no kettle in the room but the staff would bring some hot drinks over if requested. The staff were generally very friendly and helpful, it was a homely, welcoming feel. The food was excellent, and the day trips are really worthwhile. There is no wi if but its sometimes nice just to read and relax, the hotel provide DVDs as there is no cable for TV programmes, very much a get away from it all place. Over a 3 week Cambodia / Laos holiday in such a selection of hotels, this one really stands out. It is very close to the jungle so there needs to be some common sense re mosquitos etc but it really is worth a visit. We had 2 nights there, I think 4 would have been ideal."

Reverie Siam: "An experience to remember"

Review by: SWats47 | Source: Trip Advisor
Reverie Siam will always be a very special place for my mother and I. As soon as we arrived we were transported, this place is so much more than a hotel. Every detail has been thought about, the staff were always one step ahead of us. A special thank you to Mr Sabastian for making each night so lovely, we thank you for your talent and experience. To Toffy for your humor and care, we looked forward to seeing you every morning. There is no doubt we will be back to visit you again and will recommend this oasis to all the special people in our lives. Thank you!

Slow Villas and Spa: "Awesome boutique villa"

Review by: Adine L | Source: Trip Advisor
We had a great time, 4 nights, centrally located, rented bicycles. The villas are very "boutique" and attention given to small details, what we like about staying boutique. Lovely breakfast, nice tranquil atmosphere, coconut trees, private garden and pool. Good security, friendly atmosphere. Most certainly recommend to friends.

Slow Villas and Spa: "Just perfect"

Review by: julian_koe | Source: Trip Advisor
"On our 3 weeks roundtrip through Bali and Lombok my girlfriend and me have stayed 3 nights at Slow Private Pool Villas and it was supposed to be the highlight of our trip. To shorten the story: The Slow was even better than expected! Our private villa was surrounded by a huge and nicely planted garden. The pool was just awesome - perfectly clean and bigger than expected. Furniture, tapware and decoration were beautiful and definitely chosen with a huge amount of passion for the details. The staff was always friendly and helpful - no matter if we wanted to go diving, book a snorkeling trip or had some other questions: there's nothing they can't help you with in order to have the perfect time at Gili Air. The breakfast is definitely another highlight. It's getting served at your Villa at your preferred time and tastes delicious! We can't wait to come back next year! But then for longer than 3 nights. :)"

The Island Lodge: "Excellent lodge located right in front of the Mekong"

Review by: fabriceetpaola | Source: Trip Advisor
"We enjoyed a lot our stay here starting with the pool just in front of the Mékong. We had a room with a large terrace and with a great bathroom. The bedoom itself is a bit small to accomodate two kids but that was ok. The owner rented us a car with a driver, that was very convenient. It is so nice to see someone willing to please his customers by any means.Highly recommended to anyone willing to visit the Mekong delta."
