The friendly welcome given at Yoma Cherry Lodge, its tranquil garden setting and homely traditional architecture all combine to create a charming boutique gem particularly conducive to rest and relaxation.

Comprising of traditional-styled thatched roof buildings (the architecture borrows from monastic roof designs), surrounded by palm trees and beautiful gardens on a small pristine bay, this intimate property enjoys a secluded location away from the main hotel drag to the south. Its neighbour is a small fishing village where local life carries on as it has done for generations; early risers can observe the local fishermen arriving on shore with the days catch.

Accommodation is split between the two-storey Garden Pavilion set within the gardens and the single storey Beach Pavilion that sits closer to the sea. Interior décor is simple and un-cluttered with a splash of colour against white linens and dark wood; furnishings reflect its Myanma location. A perfectly placed restaurant looks out across the sea and is the place to be at sunset.
