We stayed for five days at Don Nangloy and had an incredible time. If you are looking for an authentic Lao experience, this is the place. We were one of the first tourists at the island and got insights into the life of the 300 families that live at Don Nangloy. The bungalows are newly built - simple but comfortable. Moreover, they are right next to the Mekong. Experiencing the amazing sunsets at this place while swimming in the Mekong was an incredible experience.We were really happy to get to know Phonephet, the owner of this place. His English is pretty good, so he was able to tell us about the traditions of Lao culture. He was also a monk for 8 years and can give insights into Buddhism and meditation. His wife can cook for you three times a day. The food is tasty and you can always get more so you won’t feel hungry. Phonephet also started a volunteer project at Don Nangloy. Foreign volunteers can come and help teaching the local children English, in order to give them better perspectives in life. For more information you can research about the „Don Khamao Project“ where you will also find contact information of Phonephet in case you have any questions. Introducing these children to the English language and playing games with them was a meaningful experience for us, from which we learned a lot.

Location, comfort, friendly staff

This hotel and the staff is wonderfull. Rooms are clean and beds sleep great. It’s the best place on the island to see the sunset. Bar opens at 4 PM, till a bit after sunset, so you can watch it while having a drink. Swiss Andy is a very nice person, he is so friendly, tells you everything about the island and knows all the guests by name. Breakfast is great they make pancakes and eggs on request. I loved this place, Don Det is a great island. The hotel is also on walking distance from the boatlanding, 2 minutes walking. You can rent bikes and they have laundry service.

Value for money was exceptional and a really lovely surprise to access a beautiful swimming pool in exceptional setting. From the outside the hotel looked unexceptional but the complex was a teal suprise.
