Nice hotel with great staff

This lakeside resort gives one of the best sunset views of inle lake and is connected to the land. You can get there directly from heho airport (same cost if you opt to take taxi to Nyaung Shwe and change for boat transfer). On check-out day our boatman did not turn up so we asked the hotel to arrange their driver to take us to the airport in order to catch the flight. The driver managed to catch up 40 minutes for us. I think hotel.com should mention this hotel's advantageous location in their information page.

Best location on the lake (only very little noise from the boats !!!). Also nice walk along a lovely road to a village, about 1.5 km.

湖上風景很美，房間很有特色，但走動時會晃動，有點不適應。餐廳水賣太貴了！建議自己扛水入住！搭計程車的話，要走一段不短的橋梁路，要入住的人要有心理準備！

But the best of the Hotel is it's staff the nicest people in the world !! Wether it is at the reception the concierge the dining room . The hotel can arrange for those fabulous long boat needed to explore the lake, they also recommended a super nice guide to go for a trek on the mountain side I highly recommend this hotel .
