The atmosphere is very good. Green, easy on the eyes, quiet and comfortable. I've come for the 5th time. This time I stayed in Duan Jam 1, but it's still beautiful and impressive.

We stayed here for 5 days and rented 2 bungalows high up on the mountain. The views were amazing and the rooms were very nice, however it is a very long walk up 166 steps to your room. This is not advisable for elderly or unfit people. The breakfast is limited to an American breakfast or rice soup. Both were nice. The staff were very polite and helpful especially the member of staff who carried our bags up to our rooms. He also helped serve breakfast and carried out many other duties. It’s people like him that make a successful business and he should should be appreciated more. The location is isolated but that was what we were looking for. We had a power cut on our last evening but didn’t cause us any problems. The only thing we were disappointed with was the fact the kitchen closed early. We would have eaten at the resort more often but we don’t like to eat our evening meal to early so we were forced to eat elsewhere. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.

Awesome place at the banks of the Mekong. The area is so vast you can get lost a whole day. The villas riverside a wonderfully decorated, with outside relaxing area and a very comfy bed. Dinner is early but excellent. Very nice people add to the great experience. We'll be back
