serene lake escape

meticulous management customer attitude delicious food wildlife viewing

the 500 rai management is meticulous. the staff maintains a customer-first attitude throughout the stay. the food was delicious (especially the thai green curry). kayaking provided a wonderful opportunity to view wildlife within the evergreen forest.

the internet access was limited to 30-minute vouchers, requiring frequent re-authentication (it was a minor inconvenience).
