Escape to the jungle of Luang Prabang, sleep in the midst of the garden, indulge in local cuisine, simple yet fulfilling, at the Orchard Pa La-U Resort.
Talking about Pala-U, many people might be familiar with the name, as it’s often heard in passing. But wait, where is it exactly? What does it offer? Why should one consider visiting? Today, hotelandresort will take you on a simple, comfortable trip, yet fulfilling. That’s right, we’re talking about a trip to the Orchard Luang Prabang Resort, a resort nestled amidst orchards of various fruits, including durian and other types of trees, located in Kaeng Krachan District, Phetchaburi Province.
The Orchard Pa La-U Resort is located approximately 1 hour away from Hua Hin and is situated near the boundaries of Kaeng Krachan National Park. This area is rich with lush vegetation, waterfalls, streams, and wildlife. The resort itself is about a 20-minute drive from the Pa La-U Waterfall. Being nestled amidst fruit orchards, the resort derives its name from this characteristic, making it the Orchard Pa La-U Resort.
The wild durians of Pa La-U are well-known, and at Orchard Pa La-U Resort, they have a large durian orchard. Besides that, there are also cashew trees and various types of kitchen garden vegetables.
The resort has spacious grounds, perfect for leisurely bike rides. There’s also a small canal where you often encounter flocks of ducks with their ducklings, waddling around and greeting guests.
In the heart of the resort, there’s a swimming pool located close to the lobby. The weather here is cool all year round. Even during the midday sun, it’s not too hot. You can truly feel the refreshing and lush nature surrounding you.
The accommodations at Orchard Pa La-U Resort are villas nestled under tall canopies, seamlessly blending with the surrounding nature. Each villa offers spaces both under the canopy, a balcony for enjoying the view, and importantly, spacious bathrooms with complete amenities. The villas come in two types: Deluxe and Family. They are divided into two wings, with the relaxation area in the middle. One wing houses the bathroom, while the other contains the bedroom. The advantage is that the spaces are well-segregated. However, the downside is for those who frequently need to use the bathroom at night, as they might find it a bit inconvenient having to walk through the bedroom to get there. This particular villa is situated at the front, offering views of the lush garden.
On the other side, there’s a hidden gem situated right at the very back, adjacent to the stream and not too far from the lobby. This spot offers tranquility and a view of the stream.
The back of the resort features a small stream with a gentle flow of water. It’s a beautiful spot, especially during sunset, perfect for taking stunning photographs.
Dinner at Orchard Pa La-U Resort is delicious. I highly recommend the signature dishes pictured. They are so tasty that there’s nothing left on the plate. No need to dine anywhere else. This place is the best.
The breakfast served under the lobby canopy consists of a rice porridge menu and a small buffet line for selection. It’s light yet satisfying, leaving you comfortably full.
