La Folie Lodge
Located on the island of Don Daeng not far from Champasak and Wat Phou, La Folie is a French-run lodge situated on the banks of the Mekong. Guests arrive by boat onto a sandy beach. The lodge consists of 24 rooms housed in 12 charming wooden bungalows, all with balconies offering magnificent river views and equipped with air conditioning, TV, WiFi and en-suite bathrooms. The poolside restaurant, open-aired but sheltered by a graceful wooden roof, offers continental cuisine and Asian specialties, from early morning breakfast to late-night snacks, and there is also an excellent wine list.
Why We Love This Hotel

Service: Warm and welcoming Khmer hospitality ensures guests enjoy world-class care in a stunning natural setting. Staff are employed from nearby villages and trained onsite in an initiative to improve community welfare and eradicate local poverty.
