Traditional embroideries and both contemporary and traditional paintings further decorate the room.

Set within the property's tropical gardens, the restaurant and bar is a nice sanctuary for some downtime.

Who should go?

Villa Maydou is surely for those looking to incorporate some of Luang Prabang's character into their stay. The wooden cottages fitted with modern amenities are suitable for group travelers and couples. Unfortunately, there isn't much in terms of facilities, so those looking for a luxurious stay or those with families may have to look elsewhere.

When to go?

From November to February the weather in Laos is cool and dry while March to June sees temperatures soaring in to the high 30s (Celsius). July to October tend to be very rainy, washing out some roads thus making rural areas inaccessible. Pii Mai, the Lao New Year, is in April and the celebrations include parades and water fights meaning that you are likely to get wet when walking through town. Plan accordingly by bringing plastic bags to protect your valuables.
