We arrived in the Oriental Kwai Resort after enjoying (suffering?) the busy pace of a few days in bustling Bangkok during the Songkran festival (Thai new year) during the hottest month of year. As soon as we arrived we were greeted non only by the kindness of our hostess (Evelien) but by a very nice and very refresh cold lemon... more

The Oriental Kwai Resort is a very nice family run resort. The owners, Joe & Evelien, are friendly, outgoing, and very hospitable. We stayed in a garden room cottage and it was very clean and tidy.
