말리스 네이처 러버스 방갈로

Beautiful natural jungle setting. Excellent everything, but no air-con. Nights are cool enough but daytime is HOT inside. No TV either, for those who need it. Has a small swimming pool + FREE WiFi and breakfast!

The location is great -- for visiting the temple and bird watching, and for visiting the Chiang Dao cave. Beautiful environs. Khun Malee herself is lovely and helpful, and her breakfast is excellent. Nice little plunge pool too. My only complaint: the hot water heater in the bathroom is really old and should be maintained or replaced -- either freezing cold or scalding water. The bungalows are a bit old, but they are kept clean. Nice sheets on the bed. Enjoyed my stay very much!

Nice, quiet bungalows just a few minutes out of town. The room was modest but very comfortable and the pool was great to cool off in. It was really fun to see the host’s orchid garden. Malee and her husband were very accommodating and willing to answer all of our questions, make suggestions on activities, and show us unique places. Would recommend this spot to anyone looking for a quiet place to relax after a day of adventure.

The hosts are wondeful and the breakfast itself is worth the stay. Chiang Dao is a lesser known gem, and we enjoyed the relaxed vibe in the rural countryside.

I stayed four nights here in the off season, and (as a nature lover) I really enjoyed it! There is a beautiful garden with tons of birds (as well as colorful beetles, butterflies, etc.), loads of frogs that sing at night, and many cute geckos. It's in a great location too, within easy walking distance of Wat Tham Pha Plong (a beautiful temple set in the forest, with lots more wildlife to discover). The bungalow itself was very comfortable (though a bit dusty, like maybe it got cleaned right after the last guest and that was a while ago), and the shower was spatious with good water pressure and consistent hot water. The breakfasts were delicious, with (among other things) homemade bread and fresh fruit. Finally, Malee and her family were great hosts - gracious, helpful, and friendly (they even invited me out to dinner with them on the first night, which was lovely!).
