Your room

The resort boasts 45 chalets and one grand princess chalet. The majority of the rooms havesweeping views overlooking the lake whereas the rest look over the mountains and private gardens. The design is drawn from the traditions and culture of the Shan and Intha people, think simple and soothing interiors in hues of dark wood and cream with flickering candles dotted around creating a peaceful setting that complements the surrounding area. Each Chalet has a large front facing glass window that naturally lights up the inside of the room and also provides you with fantastic views of the surrounding scenery.

Why we like it

Rest and Relaxation is at the heart of your experience here at the Inle Princess Resort, and what better way to indulge your senses than with treatment at the Princess Heritage Spa.
