Family hotels and homes in Ban Xianglôm

Beautiful location if you need quietness, and to get a few days away from the hustle and bustle. Lovely food they offer at this resort too. Rooms a stunning in old colonial style with giant balconies.

What an unexpected treasure. For a natural experience you can't do better. Interacting with the elephants in this beautiful and serene environment was just GREAT!

Wow! Wow! WOW!!! This exceptional hotel is now one of my two favourites in the world. Where do I start... Grounds: From the moment you get out of the car, you'll realise you've arrived somewhere exceptional. You may even witness an elephant amble up the driveway if you arrive in the morning at about 7:30!!! There are large carved antique entranceways and open-sided buildings that create features along a meandering path through the grounds. At times, you wander across a pond, with stepping stones cleverly placed and dragonflies dancing between lotus blossoms. Location: the property sits perched high on the riverbank, looking out across a village, lush valley, and distant mountains. Butterflies are absolutely everywhere, and the only sounds are those of nature. Rooms: large, airy, and with comfortable beds, my twin room had its own large balcony overlooking the river. The bathroom had a bath with chrome feet, and the tapware/ basin was embossed brass. Carved antique wooden doors and wooden shutters completed the look. Facilities: When you walk into the main building, your jaw will be on the ground and your head swivelling from side to side. It's crammed full of antiques from India and is more like a gorgeous home than a hotel reception/ restaurant. Small turret-like rooms with pillows for sitting on make you feel like a princess. There's also an upstairs area (go up the spiral staircase), but you will probably stay glued to downstairs like we did, studying the detail of the decor, and watching elephants cross the river. Pool: overlooking the river, it may be smaller in size, but the pool is simply perfect. It is pretty, has shade where there is a swim up bar, and has seats built into the pool on the sunny side, for relaxing. Again, the decorations are unique (throwback to Germany), and there are shaded hidden spots for reading or watching the world flow by.

Really pretty property, the rooms are big and comfy and clean, and the swimming spot is great! The staff are very friendly and helpful, and the food is good. The location is outside of the main town area, but they have free tuktuk twice a day and arrange cheap tuktuk for when you need it as well

Our stay at the Manyo Resort was a wonderful period. The pool is magnificent and a good temperature to cool off. The rooms are very spacious and well maintained. The breakfast is very tasty. Our favorite were the pancakes with honey. In addition, the staff is always very helpful and friendly. In short, a very nice stay in a beautiful accommodation.
