This resort spa is set in a breathtaking location along the river, surrounded by stunning cliffs, making it a perfect retreat after adventuring in Nong Khiaw. The rooms are beautifully designed and comfortable, overlooking the Nam Ou, allowing for mesmerizing views at sunset. The dining experience was a highlight, with delicious local dishes and a lovely pool area to relax in. However, the beds were a bit on the firm side, and the rooms could use a touch more ventilation.

The hotel boasts a stunning location right by the river with beautiful views and an inviting atmosphere. The bungalows are lovely, especially if you score one with a river view. However, the dining experience was let down by a few hiccups, including some food safety concerns that dampened our stay. Overall, it’s a great spot for relaxation, but improvements could certainly be made in the restaurant area.
