If you have time (we had a month) and you are feeling jaded then a week at Saku boutique homestay is for you! Hosts Saku and Denny - two enterprising, sprightly characters will attend to your needs, provide airport shuttles and even dinner and laundry (if needed). They are two entertaining guides who want you to have a great time. We took an excursion with them to Chang Rai - blue temple and the white temple and a tea plantation.
Saku and Denny are experienced hosts and worldly wise with a great sense of humour - โif you pleaseโ. ๐
Super clean and super friendly, the homestay is out of the hustle and bustle of the city centre but this means that you can relax, unwind and use fast wi-fi to plan.
The plunge pool is a must on a hot day, especially after a trip to the hostsโ organic lime farm or Chiang Maiโs wholesale flower market.
Thoroughly recommend.
Hire a moped - the local back lanes are full of surprises and interest.
Tout est parfait pour un sรฉjour confortable au calme loin de l'agitation d'une ville. Saku et Dann sont les charmants propriรฉtaires de cette ravissante guesthouse. Leur personnel est trรจs serviable et gentil. Vous pouvez vous restaurer avec une bonne cuisine thaรฏ traditionnelle et bon petit dรฉjeuner. Un peu difficile de commander un Bolt ou Grab (le lieu est excentrรฉ) mais une solution de transport vous sera proposรฉ par Saku (qui parle trรจs bien le Franรงais pour avoir vรฉcu en France) si vous en faites la demande.
Saku Boutique Homestay is a delightful B&B that brings together both Thai and French motifs. We just returned again from a 2 week stay ( we have been there 3 times now) and highly recommend the experience to those desiring a safe, comfortable and charming place in a village just outside of Chiang Mai, without the typical institutional hotel setting. The 3 course breakfasts are amazing!! GRAB (Thai's Uber) are available.
We had a wonderful stay at Saku Boutique home stay , the 3 acre property is in a quiet location out side the city but still close to see attractions , the trees and dams had plenty of fruit and fish to pick and catch , the owers Danny and Dang were wonderful host's and made us feel at home and a delicious breakfast in the morning with home made french bread , butter , jam and local coffee .
The the small village behind the property was a relaxing walk with rice fields , mountain views and friendly people .
The home stay have bikes available to use if you prefer to ride .
There are some great restaurants to visit a short drive from the home stay .
This was our first homestay experience and it was a very enjoyable .
Thank you Danny and Dang
