Inspired by the ethnic diversity of Laos, the resort offers a clean, contemporary take on traditional Lao designs. Beautifully curated furniture pieces, artefacts and accessories, sourced from and often created by hand by Lao craftspeople, are featured throughout.

The resort concept stems from the Lao simple and yet elegant approach to life and art, and the social value placed on living in balance with nature and the surrounding community. Thirty-four artfully designed guestrooms and suites are laid out around one of the most inviting swimming pools to be found in Laos. This award-winning hotel offers stunning views of the surrounding limestone mountains as well as a wide range of experiences for every season true to the peaceful yet adventurous spirit of Vang Vieng.

By the end of 2026, our aim is to reduce our energy consumption by 15%, our water consumption by 20%, our purchase of red meat by 30%, and our purchase of single-use plastic by 50%. We will report publicly on the progress achieved at the end of this two-year period. More broadly, we commit to:
