The emphasis at this well-manicured compound of seven comfortable, wood-floored bungalows is activities. There's a swimming pool, sauna and weights room, while bicycles and kayaks can be hired and birdwatching trips arranged. The tranquil location by Chiang Saen Lake is a bonus. It’s located approximately 5km west of Chiang Saen in Ban Khu Tao.
