Getting to this magical place is half the fun. An exhilarating forty-minute
boat trip from Pakseng pier or fifteen-minute from Resotel pier
through spectacular gorges, beckoning beaches and clusters of brilliantly
colored birds, delight the senses as one ventures deeper into the
wild of the jungle
As for our concept of original floating hotel, instead
of using electricity, we conserve the natural ambience with our
Jungle Rafts concept by using lamp for lighting your room.
