In the Mekong valley in northern Laos, Amantaka is a haven of tranquil relaxation. It's in the city of Luang Prabang, where you can explore over 32 temples, some more than 500-years old.
EXPERIENCE
Beside the winding Mekong River, in a lush tropical valley in Northern Laos, is Luang Prabang. It's filled with so many centuries-old temples that the entire city is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. And you can explore it all, while living in luxury, at the boutique resort Amantaka.
A lovely open-air French colonial building is the first thing you'll see. That's where you'll check-in, and where you'll likely drop by later for drinks in the bar, or a dinner of gourmet French and Lao cuisine. A terrace beside the swimming pool offers sun, shade, and light snacks and drinks all day. Your suite, one of just 24 at Amantaka, is a light and airy haven with a king-size bed and a private veranda.
Luang Prabang and the surrounding area are rich with historic and natural wonders. The city is known for ancient Buddhist temples, some dating back to the 1500s. A river boat trip takes you to the Pak Ou Caves, where pilgrims have left thousands of Buddha figures, over hundreds of years.
Luang Prabang was once the royal capital city of Laos. Its long history has left an amazing legacy that will keep you happily exploring for days. And outside the city, the jungles and hills are alive with amazing waterfalls, crumbling ruins, and ancient cave complexes.
It's about a ten minute drive from the airport to Amantaka.
