MyanmarA Perfect Stay at Viewpoint Ecolodge – 5 Stars!
This was our third visit to Inle Lake, but our first time staying at Viewpoint Ecolodge – and it exceeded all expectations.
The hotel is easily accessible by car, has secure parking, and is located very close to the Inle Lake jetty, which made getting around incredibly convenient.
We stayed in the Family Suite on May 4–5, and it was perfect for our family. The suite includes two separate rooms, each with its own private bathroom, and a connecting door that offers extra privacy – ideal for two families or friends traveling together. The balcony offers stunning views of the lake and surrounding mountains. The room was spacious, clean, uniquely designed, and most importantly, very comfortable – we truly enjoyed our time there.
The suite also featured air conditioning and 24-hour electricity, which is a big plus since many hotels in the area do not offer round-the-clock power. This added comfort made a big difference for us, especially as a family.
Breakfast was a highlight – a delicious mix of traditional Shan dishes and international options, all beautifully presented and accompanied by freshly brewed coffee.
One of the most memorable experiences was the floating swimming pool – peaceful, beautifully designed, and reached by traditional Intha boat, which made it even more special. The entire setting, especially the private lake, created a truly relaxing atmosphere.
We were fortunate to receive a complimentary late check-out, giving us extra time to enjoy the lake. The hotel arranged a silent, stylish, and comfortable speedboat, making our lake tour smooth and relaxing.
Finally, the staff were exceptional – always friendly, helpful, and attentive, making us feel genuinely welcome.
We highly recommend Viewpoint Ecolodge to anyone visiting Inle Lake. It offers a perfect blend of comfort, local charm, and natural beauty. Definitely a 5-star experience!
