We stayed at Ban Rai Tin Thai for four nights, taking advantage of a package that included meals and tours around the area. Panom was our guide, and he did an excellent job. He's very knowledgeable about Thai culture, Buddhism (he was a monk previously), and current events. His wife Petchara is a very good cook, so the Thai meals... More

Excellent value for money with top notch service. Will definitely go back when we are in chiang Mai again

What a wonderful, tranquil spot! Ban Rai Tin Thai Ngarm Eco Lodge is located about 20 minutes from the center of the Old City. The resort consists of a small group of bungalows hosted by Petchara and Panom. They keep the resort low key and peaceful and do not seem to have any interest in changing it into a large... More

I had heard about this lovely EcoLodge from an acquaintance (it is new so not yet in the guide books) and I am SO GLAD I decided to try it out! In the countryside in Chiang Mai province, yet close to the city, it was the perfect transition for me from a meditation retreat back to "real life." Besides the... More

I have to agree with all of the other reviewer's positive comments of the lodging here. The hosts are absolutely charming, attentive and filled with interesting and invaluable knowledge about the area. We really enjoyed getting to spend time with people like this in such a beautiful place. The bungalows are very clean and spacious and the entire property is... More

Located in a green compound surrounded by tropical woods at 18 km from Chaing Mai, this oasis of calm is ideal to either recover from Chiang Mai shopping hustle and bustle, or as a jumping board to the many attractions within a few kilometers. Several bicycles and MTBs are available for the guest, adding further to the leisurely stay. The... More

We found Ban Rai Tin Thai Ngarm Eco Lodge the most peaceful of places. It is located in a small village which we found to be an enjoyable walking distance from Mae Rim, about 45 minutes. A great feature is that the bungalows have fly screen windows (with wooden shutters for night time) and no glass. There's no air-con, you... More

WoW!!!, is all i can say, I thought i had died and gone to heaven,this place is 3 acres of beautiful grass grounds, with fruit trees, bamboo, fish ponds and the most amazing location and the most wonderful hosts that you are ever likely to meet, from the moment that Panom picked me up at the train station, till the...

We arrived at the backpacker's paradise to find a secluded lodge with ponds and beautiful fruit trees. We did not stay overnight as we were dinner guests for the evening, although it's the perfect place to get away from the busy life in Chiang Mai or other surrounding cities in Thailand. The covered patio was beautiful for our dining experience,... More
