Villa Longan Resort in Hang Dong, Thailand
Villa Longan is a true Lanna style resort, built with termite resistant teak wood and stylishly furnished with teak wood furniture. Each of the guest rooms has a flat screen TV, double bed, wardrobe and seating. The bedrooms all have en-suite bathrooms with a shower, some also have a bath. Despite the wooden construction, the ceilings are insulated against footfall noise and have a high level of sound insulation. Strong high-speed internet coverage is available throughout the resort.
Location
Longan Villa is located in Hang Dong, southwest of Chiang Mai and only 15 km from the city center. This part of Hang Dong is more agriculturally oriented with rice fields and orchards. Mango and many Longan trees characterize the landscape. This is another piece of Thailand where you can hike and bike. Not far from the resort is the famous Ban Tawai woodcarving market and the well-known Jungle De Cafe and water park. It is only a few kilometers to Kad Farang Shopping Center and Hang Dong Hospital for emergencies.
Detail
The Longan Villa consists of several houses, distributed in a well-kept garden with lawns and fruit trees. In the center is the large saltwater pool with jacuzzi and access for the disabled. Around the pool is a teak deck with plenty of sun loungers for relaxation. Parasols (usually) prevent sunburn. This resort was completed pre-Covid and virtually never used. There were only 2 events, each with a few days. Therefore the Longan Villa Resort is new and practically unused.
The entrance to Longan Villa is secured with an automatic gate, behind which at least 10 cars can park comfortably. There are additional covered parking spaces in the rear service area.
Directly from the entrance you come to the reception with office facilities and on the other side a room that is used as a pool bar.
There are several houses to stay overnight:
There are 3 one-bedroom studio bungalows with built in air conditioning, king size bed and en-suite bathroom overlooking the pool
The large, two-story building to the right of the pool can also be described as a family villa, as there is a further bedroom on each floor next to the master bedroom, furnished with twin beds. Both bedrooms each have an en-suite bathroom and, in addition to air conditioning, there are televisions in every room. 2 families with children or guests can comfortably live in this house.
