La Residence Phou Vao

Boutique Rural Hotel

Extraordinary 4.8

La Résidence Phou Vao, a five-star retreat perched atop the Hill of the Kite in Luang Prabang, Laos, blends timeless elegance with the storied charm of a former royal sanctuary, offering serene seclusion as a member of Belmond's collection of luxury hotels.

The 34 suites, adorned with polished teak and silk Laotian textiles, marry traditional Lao design with French colonial accents. Each suite features a private terrace overlooking lush tropical gardens, inviting guests to unwind amidst fragrant frangipani and lotus ponds. Spacious interiors provide plush bedding, modern amenities, and expansive windows that frame the natural beauty, fostering a deep connection to the tranquil surroundings.

The Mekong Spa offers an oasis of calm, with Laotian healing rituals and bespoke treatments delivered in private garden enclaves, using natural ingredients to soothe body and mind. Dining at Tamnan Restaurant delights with elegant Laotian and European dishes, crafted from fresh produce sourced from the resort's organic garden, while The Tamnan Bar serves handcrafted cocktails in a refined setting with breathtaking views. The dramatic infinity pool, perched to overlook sacred Mount Phousi, invites moments of reflection, complemented by curated experiences like farm-to-table cooking classes or private chef's table dinners under the stars, set within the estate's three-acre tropical haven.

Located just minutes from Luang Prabang's UNESCO World Heritage heart and 3 miles from Luang Prabang International Airport, La Résidence Phou Vao offers effortless access to the town's golden temples and vibrant markets, while remaining a serene escape above the tranquil landscape.
