A Journey Through Laos
The highlights of Laos brought to life with river journeys, local encounters and insider guides.
Luang Say Lodge is a simple resort built into the banks of the Mekong River near Pakbeng, about halfway between the border town of Huay Say and Luang Prabang. The resort overlooks the river and offers everything you need to enjoy this magical setting in comfort.
The resort has 25 delightful wooden cabanas linked by raised walkways. Simple in design yet stylish and elegant, the resort is the ideal place to relax after a day cruising leisurely down the river.
The cabanas are open plan with shutters on three sides which allow a steady flow of air and a light. Bathrooms are tiled with hot showers. The breezes and fan-cooled rooms mean there is no need for air-conditioning. The rooms have great views and come equipped with chairs and tables to soak it all up. Beds are comfy with large mattresses and mosquito nets.
The lodge has a large central restaurant and bar where hearty Laos cuisine is served. Meals are included in the price, and there is a good wine list to accompany them. Regular performances of traditional Laos dance on the open veranda are organised before dinner. Nearby Pak Beng is a 15-minute stroll for anyone wanting to explore. For most, the chance to sit on the banks of the Mekong with exceptional views and food will more than suffice.
The Luang Say Lodge is the ideal place to break the two-day cruise on the river. Comfortable accommodation, charming staff and a fantastic location make it the only serious accommodation option in the area. It is also possible to travel to the lodge by road from Northern Laos and take the boat from there, should specialised itineraries require it.
Eco/Adventure - This category covers gorgeous lodges in the jungle, comfortable safari camps and dreamy, but simple, beach cabanas. These places defy conventional categorisation: what is communing with nature to one person may be terrifying bugs to another! Many of these places are very comfortable and the service generally of a very high level - but please read the website review carefully and/or talk to us and be sure to have understood what you are letting yourselves in for!
