Why we love it
Accommodation is in individual, two-storey cottages. The bedroom is upstairs and the living room downstairs and each has a large, shady veranda. The beachfront villas have wonderful views over the sea. The rooms blend perfectly into the surroundings as each has been built using local materials.
There is a lovely swimming pool, sunset bar, library and cinema. The restaurant specialises in Italian cuisine, along with the catch of the day.
Hide away in a romantic and peaceful corner of the resort, surrounded by ponds and waterfalls, as you indulge in a treatment.
Lounge by the beachfront pool for the ultimate relaxation with a view, the perfect spot to enjoy a cocktail on a lounger as the sun goes down.
Enjoy the blend of old and new in the resort's cinema, with handcrafted wooden chairs, nagas on the ceiling, and a state of the art screen.
Explore Ngapali with long walks down the sandy beaches, passing traditional fishing boats and local life in the seaside villages.
Venture into Thandwe to watch the town come to life during the market, selling cosmetics, toiletries and household goods.
Grab a helmet and pedal your way through nearby villages to explore seaside Burmese life in the Mya Pin area in peace and quiet.
Let one of the resort's guides take you to the three iconic pagodas in Thandwe town, their gold roofs glistening in the sun.
Rise early to watch the morning activities of the local fishermen, setting off for the day or bringing in their morning catch.

I am writing to thank you for arranging a most wonderful trip to Burma in January. Every part of it was perfect. The guides were excellent and they had different strengths. We enjoyed driving instead of flying from Bagan to Mandalay (we decided to change that en route and it was fine) as it exposed us to a bit more of the country. We loved the ballooning of course and washing Buddha’s face and the hotels. And the lacquer showroom and factory. In fact, everything. You did a fabulous job. Thanks so much; all three of us had a trip to remember and learned so much.
