A resort with a big heart”
We traveled with a 8 yr old kid and reached the resort late. Both wife and kid were very carsick, not helped by the 3 hr flight from Malaysia and 3 hr of 742 bends of driving. Though kitchen was closed, owner was kind to have some 'antidote' noodles cooked which really cheered everyone up. Through our 4 days, we can really see and feel that the owner is trying to do everything to make our (and others) stay a beautiful one. Its just in her blood and soul. And that to me is what makes the place. Beautiful and quiet garden resort on top of a hill and slightly outside Pai town- the kind of mountaineous padifield Pai like setting that you would want to be in. After Pai, we stayed in hotels in Chiang Mai, then Lampang and Chiang Mai again. All are very lovely hotels. When I asked my kid which one he would like to return most, it was Pura Vida. He misses the owner and her kindness, the gardens and most of all the fish feeding. You can have the most beautiful resort in the world but not the most heartfelt experience. Here in Pura Vida, you have both. Thank you Pura Vida for making our trip a truly memorable one. We felt peace and kindness here. We will be back.

Fully recommendable”
Pura Vida Resort has been an unique experience. Our bungalow which was surrounded by a beautiful and peaceful garden was extremely comfortable. My favourite thing about Pura Vida Resort has been the treatment from our host.

A wonderful stay at Pura Vida”
A beautiful stay Review of Pura Vida Resort Reviewed 4 days ago via mobile We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Pura Vida resort! It is an oasis of peace and tranquility in a beautiful natural setting which has a small lake, fish, birds and beautifully landscaped plants and flowers. it's a great home base to visit many attractions near Pai and also to just to chill and toenjoy the surroundings and the relaxing vibe. The owner Noi is a charming and friendly lady who we enjoyed chatting with at breakfast. Breakfasts were delicious and filling. I am celiac and Noi really went out of her way to make sure I got delicious gluten free breakfasts. We are looking forward to staying here again

quiet hideaway”
It is not close to the town area but is a good place to stay if you have your own transportation. The owner is very friendly and room is beautiful and big. Also breakfast is nice. There is a beautiful garden and I like the lotus flower.

Purafect!!”
Amazing little place 10/10 pretty much perfect. Beautiful quiet grounds with pond where you can feed the fish :) All the staff were brilliant and friendly, couldn't do enough for you, especially the owner Noi who was so nice and welcoming...greeted on arrival and gave us a map of Pai and recommended restaurants and scenic places to visit while we was there. She even drove us into Pai for the early minibus when we were leaving saving us 200 baht. And a big big thankyou Noi for driving back to Pai with my passport after I had stupidly left the hotel without it, You literally saved my bacon I can't thank you enough 🙏🏻☺️ we feel like we made a friend and willl definitely stay at Pura Vida on our next visit to Pai. Thankyou for everything xx

Our stay in Pai, after the drive”
Noi was enjoyable, entertaining and knowledgeable of Pai and beyond. Breakfasts were top notch, thanks to Ae, and presented with a warm welcoming. Location was just far enough from the centre of town to be peaceful and quaint. Ground were well kept with lots of Koi in the ponds. Thanks for an enjoyable stay and we will definitely be back.

Amazing staff and place”
Absolutely loved staying at this place. Meticulously manicured grounds so many beautiful flowers. The owners could not be nicer and more attentive. We're always wanting to go the extra mile for us to make us happy and made us feel very special :) You are only about 7 minutes to town at this location and there are a couple cool things nearby to check out. Absolutely cannot say enough nice things about the owner! The owners helper is great too and makes great breakfast! Love the French toast :)

Great place”
We enjoyed this little hotel. We had our own bungalow which was nice, it was very clean, the bed was comfy and the shower was great ( hot water and good water pressure)! The owner of this hotel is super helpful and friendly, she showed us all the places to visit in Pai and recommended some restaurants that were delicious. The only downside was how far out of town the hotel was. We knew this booking it but after exploring the small town we did wish we could’ve just walked to our hotel. Overall, I would recommend staying here!

Room were slightly dated with box TV(anyway we hardly watch). Very clean. Bed was comfortable. Need your own transportation into walking Street. Breakfast was simply nice.
