Myanmar Treasure Resort - Inle Lake - Overview

Perched on the northeast bank of Burma's most important lake, Myanmar Treasure Inle is as tranquil as it gets, surrounded by well kept, manicured gardens and with the Shan Hills as background.

The property exudes a traditional feel, exemplified by its wooden make up and Southeast Asian art. The Phaung Daw Oo Buddha and the local floating market are easily accessible by boat. Visitors can also enjoy the local flavor with easy boat transfers to Intha villages and admire their arts and crafts. Also home to amazing sunrise and sunset views, Myanmar Treasure Inle is one of the lake's best stays.

The lakeside resort features 60 guestrooms, all incorporating the traditional wooden aesthetic seen earlier when guests entered the lobby. Each opens up to its own private verandah that gives guests an uninterrupted view of the lake. Air conditioning units are lacking, however the ceiling fan along with the naturally cool breeze from the lake should be more than enough to circulate each guestroom

The restaurant makes a great venue for a meal at any time of the day. It features an excellent position on the lake's shores, with options for outdoor seating next to Inle Lake or indoors. All of Myanmar's favorite dishes are to be had here. Included are some western regulars and favorites as well as coffee/tea and a bar serving the coldest drinks and cocktails.

An on-site business center is ready and available. Whether it is to make calls or to attend to any office related needs, the staff members at Myanmar Treasure Inle are more than happy to assist. The provided massage service by the lake is certainly an appeasing activity comes highly recommended, especially during the cool evening hours.

Myanmar Treasure Inle is certainly for those looking to kick those legs up and relax amongst the shores of Burma's most scenic lake. Home to smiling staff and excellent location along the shore, the property stands out amongst the Inle Lake accommodation scene.

Who should go?

For those looking for peace, tranquility and a taste of rural Burmese life, Inle Lake is certainly a fine spot to go to. Myanmar Treasure Inle certainly emphasizes on those points, with wooden guestrooms that float on stilts above the lake's waters. Some may be put off by the simplicity of the place (no air-conditioning units for example) but this may very well appease those who yearn for a quiet, peaceful and non-descript stay.

When to go?

Myanmar has three main seasons. The hottest weather is from February to May when temperatures can reach 35 Celcius during the day time. However, it is very dry this time of year. Rains begin in May and continue through to October, although usually does not hamper touring greatly as the rains tend to be short and heavy rather than all day drizzle. The best time of year to visit Inle Lake is October to February when the air is cool and dry.
