Nong Kiau Riverside Resort

Nong Kiau Riverside Resort is a modest 2-star lodge located on the outskirts of Nong Khiaw, a small town in northern Laos renowned for its striking karst mountains and the Nam Ou River that runs through it. The property features 15 wooden bungalows positioned along the riverbank, each offering spacious 40-square-meter rooms with large private balconies overlooking the water. Constructed largely from recycled traditional Lao timber, the bungalows provide a rustic yet comfortable environment with air conditioning and heating to suit the region’s cooler climate.

The resort’s setting between steep limestone formations offers an immersive natural atmosphere, with misty mornings and clear star-filled nights influencing the tranquil ambiance. Its riverside location allows guests to experience the scenic beauty and relaxed pace characteristic of Northern Laos, while the proximity to local viewpoints and natural attractions such as Tad Mok Waterfall encourages outdoor exploration.

Nong Kiau Riverside appeals to travellers seeking a simple, authentic base for discovering the surrounding landscapes and cultural surroundings. Its straightforward accommodations and central position in this less-traveled area of Laos make it a fitting choice for those wanting to experience the region’s rural character and nearby trekking opportunities without the bustle of more developed destinations.
