Momchailai Forest Retreat Traveller Reviews
Momchailai Forest Retreat
Accommodation and facilities:
What a little GEM... Words like gorgeous, breathtaking and heavenly do not do this place justice! Mostly marketed to local Thai guests, you would never know as the ambience and quality of the accommodation is beyond expectations! The resort is quiet and set in a tranquil forest setting and the natural mineral pool is inviting and refreshing and better still, we had it all to ourselves every time!! The only thing that is lacking is the kitchen/menu does not cater to western tastes so much but Wynn on reception was more than happy to take our meal requests and had the staff purchase the ingredients so the chef could make it for us the following day!!! Can t complain about that! :) It is also a fair drive out of Kanchanaburi and other attractions but the resort offers tours at a reasonable price. I would recommend giving yourself PLENTY of time if you are leaving this resort for the airport as the drive can be very long and traffic can be a BIG problem getting across Bangkok. Otherwise, this place is a real diamond!

Momchailai Forest Retreat
Accommodation and facilities:
when we booked at the forest retreat we should definateley have hired transport. The hotel is about 3 kilometres from the main road quite steep in parts with no pick up service. when we arrived it seemed to be closed and the people there could not speak any english and we could no speke any Thai( bad start) we were the only guests and no facilities entertainment wise, the swimming pool was empty, we had booked in for 5 nights we stayed out overnight once because the buses stopped running at 6pm and we did not know that it was a holiday period. eventually the staff at the hotel began to chauffeur us back and forth to the main road if they were around when we went out. the nearest town to the hotel was 7minutes bus ride it wasn t a town as such,, a few nice places to eat.. it was shops on one side of the road with a park opposite. If you are looking to go here do your homework first and I also think the booking agents should be more informative, it was expensive for the facilities available.

| Mom Chailai did not create these Retreats
for commercial reasons. It was a life long compassion for Nature
and things of antique values that continues to motivate Mom Chailai to create these sanctuaries. In fact each of the houses on the estates has been built at a different time and has its very own architectural signature. And that is what makes a stay at Mom Chailai's Retreats a very personal experience. Mom Chailai's Retreat attempts to make you feel as her personal guest. Make yourself comfortable, feel at home in a place that was created for relaxation. And spend quality time you could hardly find anywhere else. |
