Rooms

The resort offers comfortable accommodation in freestanding, stilted chalets, each with a generous amount of space and equipped with quality amenities. Some of the chalets are located in the lush gardens, while others are set right by the lake for wonderful views. After a day of exploring the lake and immersing yourself in the area's fascinating culture, relax on your private terrace and admire the view over the water. Each chalet is dressed in traditional decor, with authentic teak wood carvings and large clay ovens for warmth in the cooler months. They also feature a large, private outdoor shower, which is a great way to cool down in the warmer months.
