We stayed for 7 nights, including Christmas, at Dreamcatchers, and it was definately the most memorable one in three weeks travelling in Thailand and Cambodia.
What makes Dreamcatchers so special:
1) beautiful decorated houses with very clean and comfortable rooms
2) "home" atmosphere but no lack of privacy
3) we stayed with our two children of 9 and 7. I can recommend Dreamcatchers to both couples (or solo travellers) as well as to families. Annabel, her staff and her three dogs were all adorable with our children. Food, both in mornings as well as in the evening is fantastic.
4) location. By taxi it takes 10-20min to the center of Chang Mai. However we thought it was great to come back to the relaxed and beautiful athmosphere of Dreamcatchers after a full day of activity in or around Chang Mai and it is easy and very afordable to arrange for taxi's etc.Also Annabel helped us to arrange for great activities (rafting/jungle flights/cycling) and all companies picked us up at the hotel. The area around the hotel is also very nice and for instance good for early morning jogging / cycling etc.
5) Most importantly Annabel and her staff are great and fun people to be around. We spend Christmas eve with them and will never forget the lovely diner we had.
We hope to go back to Thailand some day and will then definately return to Dreamcatchers. Also we will recommend this great hotel to our family and friends.
