enjoy waking up to a lovely view everyday
The hotel is located away from the centre but still accesible and it was good to get away from it all. You get to see a different side to Luang Prabang,roof top villas are good experince
7.7
We stayed at the villa for 2 nights. We enjoyed our stay at the Villa,we did a short trek to the local villages and took some goodies for the local who were very happy.There is the Elephant santuary,mekong river tour which we sadly missed as there was not enough time.
Only one problem,rooms do require a fridge,as after a long day out,we need cold drinks and drinks/water in our room,were too warm to drink. Also it was hard to get hold of the manager,maybe have direct line to contact him as staff spoke very little english and hard to explain,just a suggestion for the future.
Outdoor shower was great and waking up to the view everymorning was breath taking :O)

A lot to improve for the owners.
No phone connection in the room, very dangerous because the reception is about 5 min walk up-hill from the room. Not 1 single TV station in the entire resort. Lots of ants in the room and at the wall by the bed, they walk over the bedsheets during the day and the night. Not enough lecture and no newspapers.

The biggest disappointment on our trip
The location is stunning - 7 villas set in the jungle on a slope above the river Nam Kamh. The rooms are spacious with a large balcony looking out over the river.
4.3
This was the most expensive place we stayed during a five week trip in South east Asia and it was a huge disappointment. There was a complete lack of anything that could be defined as hospitality and the standard of service provision was very poor in every respect. We discussed all our concerns with the owner who appeared not to be bothered. This was terriboe value for money - do not be seduced by the location.

It was better than I had expected, even after reading the reviews. The quality and range of food was excellent. The service was very good. The setting, views and design of the rooms was amazing. Loved the outdoor shower. Plenty of activities available and everyone was friendly and happy.

All quiet at the river bank
Super service with a smile. The whispering sound of silence. Delicious food. A splendid room.

We only stayed one night, during our Elephant Park Experience; this should have been longer! The lodges are splendid, all with a beautiful river view. The management had a very problem solving attitude concerning a booking discussion, and gave proof of the best service attitude possible. All staff members were friendly and helpful. So, we regretted to have booked only for one night in this resort, and advice you to stay at least a few days here.

Excellent service and relaxed atmosphere

Before arriving I had an extensive email correspondence with the manager about activities during our stay and lodging request (calm bungalow). Rapid and clear responses.
Once arriving we were well received and had three very nice days. It worked out very well with our child, at the time 9 months. We could even have nice calm dinners as the staff happily took care of the child while eating.
We took part in two well-arranged outings: one combined hike and kayaking (without the child), and a second combined village visit, boating and Taed Sae. Both are recommended.

Peaceful haven - very restful
Spacious bathrooms, good restaurant on-site
8.3
Located 30-40 minutes away from the town of Luang Prabang, Lao Spirit Resort is a great place to stay for those who have already seen most of Luang Prabang, and wish to enjoy a peaceful respite in the jungle. The architecture of the bungalows is beautiful, and each has a private deck facing out to the river - suitable for those long afternoons spent reading or doing nothing. Don't expect any wifi reception in the bungalows though - you have to go to the reception area itself for that, or a certain part of the restaurant.
The on-site restaurant is pretty good, and offers a variety of Lao favourites and a few Thai-inspired dishes at reasonable prices.
The reception even provides yoga mats upon request!
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip:
Lao Spirit Resort offers various kinds of activities/treks, as well as a wonderful massage experience.

Very nice experience, good rooms, tasteful bathrooms, well-kept garden, good food and wonderful service in organising hikes, excursions and transport.
Ideal to relax, enjoy nature and have a quiet week-end with a bit of luxury. Nice atmosphere, very family and child-friendly. Stunning views at the river or the mountains around.
