The jungle resort is on the River Kwai, with lush gardens, two swimming pools provide tranquil escape. The room has windows on three side, framing the green surrounding nicely. The ceiling is beautiful. The bathroom is spacious. It has no closet but is fine with us, since we travel with a carry on only.
The resort is connected to Lawa Cave, one of Thailand national reserve.
Each room is issued one key, which means you can’t charge your device while out.
The staff is friendly and helpful. Food is ok, nothing to write home about.
