The Khamthavee is operated by a young couple with two of the most adorable and photogenic children around. A real effort is being put into making people feel at home and they are really bending over backwards to ensure that this happens.

Apart from the lovely family, the biggest draw to the Khamthavee is the location - close to the eating and drinking of Viang Vieng but far enough away to be out of hearing range when the young people have a bit too much to drink or smoke or whatever it is that sends them crazy nowadays.

We looked at several places before choosing this one, and believe we got the best value in town. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone. We'll certainly be back.
