I highly recommend! A beautiful, authentic Homestay in a traditional bamboo hut nestled in the jungle above a fast flowing creek. My hut was very comfortable - soft mattress and soft pillows, mosquito net, ensuite with hot shower. A balcony to relax and watch the world (ie pigs, dogs, water buffalo) go by. The owner, Mr Thep, is a friendly, kind, knowledgeable local Lahu man. He was always willing to help and provided information, and organised transport when I needed it. He speaks English very well. This is his home, he has lived here with his father and delightful daughter for 20 years. They offer great food and beer, both very well priced (80-100baht) especially considering you are in the middle of a jungle. (There is also a lovely creek-side cafe that has great food 10 minutes walk away.) But don’t expect this Homestay to be like the facilities/conveniences of Chiang Rai, or compare it to a hotel (there are no taxis or Grab App in the jungle!) - it is so much more - this is a serene piece of paradise where you can disconnect, relax and enjoy the jungle and experience the simplicity and beauty of authentic village life. I really enjoyed my stay and laughed a lot! The ‘Land of Smiles’ has somehow come out the other side of covid still smiling. And so am I. To do: - 20 minute walk through the jungle (steps) to the refreshing Mae Sai waterfall. Highly recommend going in for a dip - the water gets deep after a few steps in. The waterfall itself provides a chilly, powerful massage! - If you want more of a challenge take the (very) steep walk up (3.7km) to the Doi Bo Viewpoint - ‘Sea of Mist Yafu’ - If you aren’t quite up for the climb to the Viewpoint you can turnoff at the halfway mark and visit Ban Yafu Village. It’s a photographer’s delight. - Take an easy walk to Akha Village (2.
