{"product_id":"mai-chau-lodge-mai-chau-vietnam","title":"Mai Chau Lodge","description":"\u003cp\u003eOpened in 2007, Mai Chau Lodge was built as a base for exploring the valley of the same name, three hours by road from Hanoi. The lodge sits on Mo Luong Lake, ringed by rice paddies and mountains, in a valley long worked by White Thai communities. It has 16 rooms. Eight glamping domes stand at a separate campsite by a lotus pond. Rooms carry dark wood furniture and handwoven textiles in the colours of local weaving, and the Junior Suite, the largest category at 50 m², opens onto a balcony facing the lake and valley beyond. A five-minute walk down the lane leads to a White Thai village, then another, where houses stand on stilts and buffalo graze between the paddies. Guests can borrow bicycles free of charge to cover that ground at a slower pace. The Bo Luong restaurant looks over the rice fields and a lily pond and serves Vietnamese and regional northwest dishes alongside international plates. The lodge also runs a sauna, jacuzzi, and swimming pool, along with kayaking on the lake and cooking classes with local chefs. A buffet breakfast comes with the room rate. It remains, before anything else, a working point of entry into a farmed valley, not a resort apart from it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WETU","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43868362702907,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/6776\/2747\/files\/AHRPTWnCCHqiRNVvEynO78hlBiMedaxvg2lLKEOL89SgJZkGC-PWGXJ4AzaApERpS3yAKSa80A7K4KGfgjtbvsT4gspqoHiRhifn7UHHBeNDgRaVbUCbW7eAtGH6WSiky_XUzZ5mJn9d_w4800-h4800.jpg?v=1785179442","url":"https:\/\/plekify.com\/products\/mai-chau-lodge-mai-chau-vietnam","provider":"Plekify","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
