        frequently asked questions

        Hotel access is part and parcel of the adventure. Guests typically travel to the pier in Kanchanaburi before taking a traditional long-tail boat along the river to reach the resort, which is only accessible by water. For private transfer details, please contact the hotel.
        The resort offers floating teak-wood villas, including Panoramic and Floating Rooms, each thoughtfully designed with modern comforts and private terraces overlooking the river.
        Guests can enjoy a mixture of land and water-based experiences, from kayaking and boat trips to exploring nearby landscapes, waterfalls and cultural landmarks. Failing that, simply relax on your private terrace and soak up the peaceful surroundings.
