We stayed for 8 nights at the resort. The owners and staff are lovely and very willing to help in all ways. The food is quite good, though the menu is rather small. Our kids loved the monkeys, dog, and talking birds. They were a real treat. I think, however, that the prices are very high for Lao. We did... More

We stayed at the Zen Nhamkhan Resort for two days and two nights at the end of March 2013. It was disappointing to say the least: - Despite confirming a date, time and place of pickup in two emails with Moon, the driver failed to turn up. After two reminder phone calls and 40 min later, the driver finally arrives... More

After a night in a village home stay the hotel was what we needed. Gorgeous villas spacious with the most relaxing view and outdoor shower. I loved the fact that it was not just another hotel room. The food was wonderful and the hotel owner/manager was great company. His dog was very friendly too and enjoyed a swim in the... More

We arrived at the Zen at the midpoint of our 32 day tour of Vietnam/Laos, 7 of which were in Luang Prabang. Take advantage of the pricing and stay for at least 4 nights as we did. Once you find great serenity and relaxation in such a beautiful place why would you want to leave? Luc kindly recommended “Serenity” (name... More

The setting is really beautiful. Gorgeous views over the pool to the mountains. We had a villa that was quite big and interesting..with an outdoor shower - remember to shower before dark :), and again amazing view. The terrace was nice, with wooden chairs that were not too comfy. Wish they invested in some pillows so you could actually sit... More

Our part had a great time in this beautiful place. A real Shangra La jungle setting. A highlight of a four week trip through Vietnam, laos,and Cambodia. The food was delicious ( but a limited menu, which did not bother us a bit.) Great curries, very nice wine selection. We enjoyed the staff, and the owners. The owner has good... More

I am a bit torn as to what rating to give here, because a) i recommend everybody to go there and stay a night or two b) the service and especially the hospitality is soso for the price, for which I have to reduce the rating a) The location is absolutely top, we had one of the stunning villas that...

The place is great but it relies too much on the natural beauty....considering its in the middle of nowhere, the restaurant should offer much more and what he actually does offer is over priced for what it is...when we were there they also needed some kind of restaurant manager as the Laotian staff hardly spoke English...even though they tried their...

staying at the Zen Namkhan was simply the highlight of our month long travels of Thailand and Laos and we only ended up there by accident. Having had our previous reservations at a hotel in town completely screwed up we decided to look else where and found this paradise. i agree the journey to it was an adventure in it's... More
