Laos is all about lush serenity, and The River Resort gets this spot on.
Many hotels in the area tend to be traditional and rustic, but The River Resort offers something more stylish for guests looking for modern flair, whilst still being mindful of the environment. A string of contemporary villas is set along the Mekong riverbank, surrounded by tropical grassland and rice paddies. Each villa has 2 ample storeys and floor-to-ceiling picture windows. The rooms are modern, light, cool and comfortable, embellished with contemporary Laotian artwork and furnishings fabricated from ecologically friendly natural bamboo.
Balconies wrap around every villa, giving stunning views of the river, nearby mountains and misty Mekong sunsets. Just a stone’s throw from Champasak town, The River Resort provides a great base for discovering the wonders of southern Laos, with a modern twist.

Why we love it
“If you like a modern touch, this is the best place to stay for R&R whilst exploring southern Laos.”
Modern sustainability
A contemporary hotel with a focus on sustainability, and arguably some of the best river views in Laos – what’s not to love? The River Resort gives you the opportunity to explore some of southern Laos’ most interesting spots and meet the residents in nearby villages. The inviting infinity pools (yes, plural!) with expansive views of the Mekong are the icing on the cake.
What can you do there?
After an early morning dip in one of the resort’s infinity pools, spend the day relaxing at the Laotian massage pavilion or head out onto the river to explore the 4,000 Islands, perhaps sipping a cocktail or two on the way back. Enjoy alfresco dining in the open air restaurant, sampling dishes full of fresh, home-grown vegetables while admiring the view. Pick a lazy afternoon to roam around the resort’s 4 hectares of parkland, admiring the local flora and fauna, and dive into adventure and culture by kayaking down the river to see local fishermen at work.
