    Oudomxay Province

    Sanctuary Pakbeng Lodge

    Located midway between Luang Prabang and Huay Xai, the main border crossing between northern Thailand and Laos, is Sanctuary Pakbeng Lodge. Sitting on the banks of the Mekong River, it enjoys an idyllic situation.

    There are 20 rooms spread across two buildings. With bamboo furnishings, Hmong wall hangings and parquet rosewood floors, they have a traditional feel. All rooms face the Mekong so you can enjoy serene views from the moment you wake up.

    There are two restaurants at the lodge serving Thai and Laotian cuisine using ingredients from their organic kitchen garden. You can also enjoy drinks at the bar as the sun goes down and water buffalo come to bathe in the cool waters of the Mekong.

    Muang La Lodge

    Muang La Lodge provides guests with an incredible opportunity to stay in one of northern Laos’ remote villages in the comfort of this charming hotel.

    With its wooden buildings and discreet size, the resort manages to blend in with its surroundings, whilst offering its guests the luxuries of a sauna, massage services, gorgeous fragrant gardens, and ten en-suite rooms decked out in polished wood and jewel-toned fabrics, each with its own terrace; the furniture is all made by local craftsman Oudom Xai.

    Right by the lodge, the village’s natural hot spring fills the outdoor plunge pool, in which guests can unwind in this blissfully tranquil environment while soaking up the water’s therapeutic effects.

    Traditional life still prevails up here, and the Muang La has a unique agreement with the village chief, which has allowed it to slot into village life and to have spearheaded several projects, such as the maintenance of the river bank to prevent flooding and the building of a bridge. The resort also employs locals and buys its produce from the village, all of which allows visitors to experience this culture in the most ethical, eco-conscious way possible.

    Guests at the Muang La Lodge can use this as their base to explore the beautiful, untouched surroundings of the village, with rainforest treks, mountain biking, village visits, and trips to nearby waterfalls. Onsite, there are also Asian cookery classes for those who want to take home a taste of their journey to Laos.
