Como Uma Punakha, Punakha

Nestled on a lush hillside along a bend in the Mo Chhu River this property is luxurious in more than one sense; your natural surroundings are just as impressive as the warm, hospitable service and beautiful accommodation.

The lovely lounge and dining area is fitted with high ceilings, wooden beams and a terrace overlooking the paddy fields and mountains. Local fresh fruit, vegetables and dairy products are widely used in the traditional and international dishes served in the Bukhari restaurant. Private and in-room dining options are available too. If the property wasn't already relaxing enough, you can further unwind at the spa with a range of Asian-inspired holistic therapies.

Nine hillside rooms with valley views and two freestanding private villas make up the property. Each room has sweeping views down the Mo Chhu River and valley. Rooms are light and airy, with whitewashed walls covered in handpainted designs and wooden beam roofs. Valley View rooms include floor to ceiling windows, while some have terraces as well. The standalone villas are fitted with french windows and a spacious stone terrace with a fire and dining table. For families or groups, the villas are ideal, with two adjoining rooms and a central living space.

The Valley View rooms are quite small, so we recommend upgrading to a private villa. For an intimate and indulgent stay in Punakha, look no further than Como.
