We stayed for 5 days, occupying to of the large bungalows for our family of 5. we loved the gourmet food, the available shuttle into town, the rustic/antique vibe, the GORGEOUS ROOMS!!, the bean bag riverside loungers . The staff was amazing. Joy is an excellent person to recommend fun and exciting day tours. We’ve been to Thailand 8x, also living both in CR and Bangkok: this is by far one of the most kept up, luxury resort we’ve stayed in. Many couples were there for their honeymoons (we see one another at breakfast). Breakfast is HUGE and very very gourmet! Nice background music: Billie Holiday-ish and 40’s vibe. They do not play annoying Thai Christmas songs. (been in an MK lately?! ugh) This resort was Amazing! The owner treated us to sparkling wine to celebrate my husbands 50th. The staff were amazing and their English is top notch. We cannot wait to come back! It keeps Pai town civilized . We also liked that we weren’t required to purchase Christmas dinner (which most Thai resorts do) bc we love going out for Thai. (but if you do want true Christmas dinner it looked amazing). You must take the shuttle to Pai Canyon for the sunset, the rafts to the caves, and the rice field walks. If you come at Christmas please recognize it can get down to 45 Fahrenheit at night in northern Thailand . The staff gave us wool blankets to use each day (60-70 farenheit) while we sat in the common area (dining area) and read all day. Lovely people !
