Discover Muang La | Visit Laos | Luxury & Boutique Hotel: "Magical Muang La!"

"We spent two very special days at Muang La and were super impressed with the personal service, attention to detail, glorious cuisine and luxurious accommodation. Jop and his team were fantastic and made sure we had everything we could possibly want. Highly recommend this unique spot to explore some of the most beautiful and remote parts of Northern Laos.

David’s Kitchen: "Top cuisine"

Absolutely fabulous delicious dinner, we noted the great attention to every little detail. A real fusion of Thai and European food, excellent service, great location.

Flower Island: "Simply Amazing"

"If you are looking for a place to truly relax, that is off the beaten path, and want to be surrounded by friendly mellow guests and attentive, caring staff, then this is the place for you. Flower Island is not like the other crowded resorts in Palawan. This is truly a place where you will chill and relax. For those that can’t sit still there is snorkeling (great reef just steps from your room), kayaks, SUPs, pearl farm tour and trekking around the island to keep you occupied. Definitely worth the time and investment. I highly recommend this place!!"

Rice & Zen Boutique Resort: "Exceeded expectations"

"Brill stay. Staff,food,views. Staff did all they could to make it a pleasant stay. Tum (resort manager) even came to get us from the airport You do need transport to travel around but we just chilled on site. Private pool is a bonus and self cleaning. Food is priced reasonably. Although its a limited menu the food is tasty. Really recommend 1-1 cooking classes . Take pen paper and make sure cameras charged! Private dining on the beach was fab,Faith was flexible with the menu and made sure it was how we wanted Wednesday is optional social buffet with free coctail hour (you can go for coctails and not have buffet) ,and couple of other nights has goid live music Note that its a shingle beach and only one other hotel next door has access so always quiet. Free kayaking and paddleboarding for guests Make sure you put on deet spray as theres lots of mosquitos at night. Shower wasnt too powerful but sufficient. Stayed March 2017, traveled as a couple"

4 Rivers Floating Lodge: "Amazing"

"My husband and I stayed at the 4 Rivers Floating Lodge in October for 5 nights and it was simply not enough! We loved the resort, its surroundings, tours and people working in it so much, that we felt like staying there forever! It was superb! The journey to the resort is spectacular! Nature surrounding the lodge is simply magnificent! Real paradise! We truly loved it! The lodge itself is wonderful, very well laid-out and well-decorated. Rooms are really spacious and the shower wooden cabin is fabulous! Tours are fabulous! Really interesting and definitely worth taking. The lovely guides are incredibly accommodating and very friendly. In fact, they were fantastic. We really enjoyed our time with them and we actually wish we took few more tours with them. The wonderful restaurant requires a special praise! It was superb!!!! The food was delicious and really plentiful. We were spoilt and we loved it! And the wonderful and really talented chef is only 17! His food was superb! Gordon Ramsey has a serious competition there! The wonderful young men working at the front of the house and restaurant were incredibly sweet and hospitable! They were true gentlemen! Incredibly welcoming and kind. We will definitely miss everyone at the 4 Rivers Floating Lodge! It was superb! Huge thank you to everyone at the resort for making our time simply magical! With much appreciation, Olga and Alan White from Ireland!"

The River Resort: "Paradis"

"Lorsque l'on arrive dans la region de Champasak et que l'on cherche un hotel deux possibilités s'offrent dont la folie lodge. Au vue des avis nous avons ete incapable de choisir et avons été aux deux qui sont presque face a face. Arrivé au river resort par taxi depuis Pakse accueil agréable. Belle chambre avec vue dur le Mekong. Chambres modernes et clean . Tres bonne literie. Belles piscines (2) avec vue sur la Meckong un peu froide et manquant de profondeur. Petit déjeuner et repas parfait ! Cuisinière excellente et service Restauant parfait. Organisation excursion wat phu bien prix correct ( loc de tuktuk) Rien de plus a dire un très bel hôtel dans un beau cadre. Beau lever de soleil de ce cote du Meckong !"

The Hue House: "Beautiful Gem and Amazing food"

The service is good and atmosphere is good. Very beautifully designed restaurant and well planned menu. Its the Hue Cuisine food with all different variety to choose from. Got to say one thing on the dot that food is Amazing. Would highly recommend.Must visit place"

Manda De Laos: "Excellent local cuisine"

Manda de Laos is happily tucked away from the hullabaloo of the tourist quarter and offers wonderful Laotian cuisine, in a great setting with one of the nicest lily ponds in LP. Food, service and ambience first class - it was quiet early in the evening, but very busy later on - we revisited the next day to see the lilypond in daylight and capture a little more of the ambience. Highly recommended.

4 Rivers Floating Lodge: "Floating luxury"

"This highly unusual hotel consists of 12 luxury tents, actually floating on the river and surrounded by nature The tents are very spacious. Many of their ""walls"" can be rolled up to provide panoramic top-to-floor ""windows"" consisting of mosquito-proof netting if you prefer a view to privacy. Each tent has a private veranda with loungers and direct access to the river. There is a nice sitting area, several fans that can be adjusted to your own comfort, a DVD player (and a choice of DVDs from the reception) and rain coats (which unfortunately we needed). The bathroom has a barrel shower, which we thought was fun. Breakfast is served à la carte and staff was extremely flexible to adapt to special wishes and changes. For dinner, there was a choice of set meals, but equally a large à la carte menu. The lodge offers a variety of excursions against payment (boat trip to the waterfall, canoeing in the mangroves and visiting a local school, hikes in the rainforest, sunset cruise) as well as a short free boat trip to see the fireflies after dusk. We were unlucky with the weather, as it was raining all afternoons and thus we were not able to do the canoeing or the sunset cruise. We experienced great hospitality and particularly appreciated that management was permanently around, actively engaging with the guests and supporting all staff. There is no wifi apart from an emergency access via the phone of the manager. We stayed for 4 nights."

Manda De Laos: "Lovely food, plenty of choice and great service"

This restaurant was very near our hotel so we went twice. The setting is around a "heritage" lily pond which was beautifully lit at night. There was a fairly extensive menu of both Lao and western dishes. It isn't cheap but everything we tried was very tasty. It is essential to book as this is deservedly a popular spot.
