Built along the Mekong River, 1km from Pakbeng Village half way between HoueiSay and Luang Prabang.
- The construction is of tropical hardwood in the Lao traditional style and decoration - 19 rooms + restaurant, bar and central terrace linked by gangways.
- Each pavilion has a terrace offering a fabulous view over the Mekong river and Valley. Each pavilion has private toilet/ shower room and hot water. (1 bedroom and 2 bedrooms pavilions). 24h electricity supply, by 2 silent running generators.
- LuangSay Lodge hired a dance teacher to teach Khamu and Hmong people tribal dancing, which is now performed regularly. The Lodge also supports the financing of local musical instruments. Dancers and musicians are now able to earn their living without sacrificing their culture and traditions, as LuangSay was able to revive these old traditions for them which had been lost from the Pakbeng area.
A stay at the Luang Say Lodge is worth the trip itself. Built on the shores of the Mekong River (on the Laos side) in the traditional Lao style of solid wood, this elegantly appointed lodge features:
