Holiday rentals in Mae Na Ruea

If I could give our stay 10 stars out of 5 I would. Daniel and Sumalee are amazing hosts and Sabai Sabai is even more beautiful than the photos. Everything was perfect and Daniel was always available to offer advice and recommendations as well as making sure everything ran smoothly. He goes way above and beyond. I’m looking forward to coming back again next year!

We had a wonderful stay. simple home in a lovely setting on the farm. Views are beatiful. Walks and temple nearby are so nice. The host super nice. it is a working farm, her family were busy harvesting. She made us some vegan food on request. highly recommend

If you are looking for basic accommodation that is comfortable near the floating pagodas of Wat Chaloem Phra Kiat Phrachomklao, this is a great place to rest your head for the night. This is a pretty basic review since I was only there for 1 quick night. The location was really hard to find from the address provided. Every map app I had landed me about 15min too far south from the actual location. If you need to find this place, DO NOT search by the address provided, instead search for “Himdoy Muangpan Resort” and your maps should find it just fine. The host was kind enough to accommodate a late check-in but communications when I was lost at night and needing some direction were a bit slow in response. I was starving when I arrived and unfortunately there was nothing open in town, including the cafe on the premises, so I just didn’t eat for the night and figured I’d fill up on a hearty breakfast in the morning instead. The host speaks a bit of English, but the person who checked me in for the night did not. It was fine and we figured everything out but just be aware if you plan to stay here. The room itself is very clean and spacious. The bed was firm but very comfortable with nice fluffy pillows. It was a bit chilly at night in the mountains and an extra blanket would have been nice to have on hand. There is a TV, VERY small closet (if you could even call it that) with some hangers, 1 large bottle of water with 2 glasses, a small chair, 2 towels, soap and toilet paper provided. There is no WiFi here which was a bit disappointing and no guide book which would have been nice to have on hand since there are so many awesome things to check out in the area! The bathroom is one of the largest ones I’ve had so far in my travels in Thailand which was really nice for a change and the shower had hot water (just be sure to flip the switch on!). Be aware that this is a farm stay, which I love but some do not appreciate. You’ll have roosters waking you up first thing in the morning if you don’t bring earplugs. The view of the mountains in the morning was breathtaking and the cafe is setup in a perfect spot to take it all in while you have breakfast. You can even see the silhouette of the floating pagodas from the other side of the mountain if I’m not mistaken! There were lots of chickens running around in the morning and a couple of horses out in the field. The breakfast was delicious and included with the stay! Thai rice soup (consisting of rice in a watery broth and a “pork meatball”), along with a fresh soft boiled egg. It was just the perfect start to the morning. Coffee is available but will cost extra at a reasonable price. It was good but not the best I’ve had so far. Still better than the instant mix coffee you see a lot in Thailand though! The floating pagodas are about a 30min drive from this location. If you have time afterward, check out Chae Son Waterfall and the hot springs (located in the same park) where you can take a dip and watch the locals cook eggs in special handwoven baskets in the hot springs. It’s like a mini Yellowstone National Park and was definitely a highlight of my trip so far. There is a (reasonable) fee to get into the park and is about a 40 minute drive from the pagodas on your way to Chiang Mai it Chiang Rai.

A hidden gem! We spent 3 days in this magical place with friends, celebrating the new year 2024. The place is incredibly beautiful, very successfully combined with wild nature, but at the same time comfortable. The owners have thought through everything to the smallest detail, many kitchen utensils, everything you need to prepare food. The hosts were also very kind and welcoming. Coffee, tea, water, fruit - all this was waiting for us as a gift. Such little things make you feel at home. Rooms are comfortable and clean, good looking. Location itself is an excellent choice for those who love peace and unity with nature. The river, trees, flowers, everything looks very nice and adds a pleasant atmosphere to the place. We are very grateful to the hosts, who did everything to make us comfortable and make our vacation perfect.

Wonderful host’s very accommodating, kind and helpful. Looking forward to staying again!!

I absolutely loved the town of Phayao and this older hotel was in a great location to explore. Staff were friendly and helpful. For the price I was satisfied.

amazing stay high up in the hills of ChiangMai with incredible views! there isn't a lot to do here, which makes for a great peaceful retreat.

our stay was brilliant! surrounded by rainforest and mountains, it was a perfect escape from hot Chiang Mai. Patt has built up gorgeous wooden studios and cabins from second hand wood and windows, and they are absolutely gorgeous, blending in with the jungle surroundings. breakfast was delicious and huge with wild puer tea or yummy coffee. one day we went on a little walk to explore the land behind the buildings and we were taken on a guided walk around the huge piece of land, deep jungle, by Mong who works for Patt. he gave us mangoes and rambai and showed us different plants and mushrooms. as we stayed in the rainy season there were lots of insects desperate to become roommates. nonetheless the studio was clean and relaxing. if you're phobic of insects this might not be the best place to stay. but if you love being surrounded by nature with gorgeous views - this is the perfect place .
