"Pros: We had the immense pleasure of staying for six nights at the Patamma Hideaway in the serene Nan region of Thailand. This place is an absolute haven for anyone looking to escape the hustle and stress of city life. From the moment we arrived, we felt a sense of peace and tranquility. The property is beautifully maintained, offering plenty of opportunities for meditation, leisurely walks on the property and farm, or simply sitting on the balcony with a coffee and looking across the lake. The food was another highlight of our stay. Each meal was crafted with fresh ingredients from their very own organic plantation. The attention to detail and the vibrant flavors truly showcased the care that goes into their culinary offerings. The staff at Patamma Hideaway were exceptional—always friendly, attentive, and ready to go above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. A special mention goes to the general manager, Neung, who made our experience even more memorable. Since we stayed longer than most guests, he kindly offered to personally show us around the area. This gesture exemplified true Thai hospitality, and it left a lasting impression on us. He introduced us to the stunning beauty of the surrounding mountains, with breathtaking viewpoints that were worth every step. He also took us to some local sightseeing spots that gave us a deeper appreciation for the region. Surprisingly, one of the most fun activities in the area was feeding adorable sheep and alpacas on a small hill—a delightful experience that brought out our inner child. You will need a car to experience the region on your own, though, since the property is somewhat remote. If you're looking for a peaceful retreat that combines comfort, nature, and authentic Thai hospitality, Patamma Hideaway is the place to be. We left feeling rejuvenated, inspired, and grateful for such a wonderful experience. Thank you, Patamma Hideaway, for giving us a slice of paradise! Cons: The only minor thing was some landscaping with heavier machinery across the lake on one or two days. But it was not too distracting, and the work has to be done at some point, I guess." ~Marc
