	Bali The Oberoi Bali Grace, style and luxury exude from The Oberoi Bali. It is the “grand dame” of Bali and still has enough charm to wow even the most seasoned traveller.

Bali The Viceroy Hotel Sometimes a place is so special it captures one's imagination forever. My stay at the Viceroy Hotel on the island of Bali might well do that. Bali is a undoubtedly a very special place, Ubud, a town in the central highlands of the island, is almost magical and the Viceroy Bali, a world class destination just outside Ubud, is simply breathtaking... Here is the account of my recent stay there. Feature: The Ultimate Spa Hotel Guide	Cambodia Sokha Beach Resort Sokha Beach Resort, Sihanoukville is a gem on the Cambodian riviera in the town of Sihanoukville. Most have not heard of this part of the world but actually there is a long stretch of coastline in the south western corner of Cambodia with lovely beaches, fresh seafood, scattered islands and lots more to do. The major town in the area is Sihanoukville, formerly known as Kampong Som and now informally known as Snooky! There is an airport locally but at the time of writing it is being commissioned and will soon be accepting flights. In the meantime, I made the journey down from Phnom Penh by car although there are numerous regular buses as well as a limo service from the hotel. The hotel itself has an envious location on the best beach in the area. Pristine sand stretches around the bay and the beach is kept clean and hawker-free by the hotel so you can really enjoy it. It is safe to swim and the gently shelving shoreline encourages this without doubt. Feature: The Ultimate Spa Hotel Guide
