art's riverview lodge
Art's Riverview Lodge at Khao Sok is situated on a bend in the Klong Sok River. Resting in the jungle canopy, treehouse rooms face the river and limestone cliffs on the opposite bank and have a backdrop of pristine rainforest vegetation. The rustic rooms are simple but tastefully furnished and feature double or twin beds, electric fan, balcony overlooking the river. They do have private western bathrooms but it’s cold water only.
Wake to the haunting sound of gibbon call, then spend the day exploring Khao Sok's many hidden treasures. Elephant riding, canoeing and night safaris are just some of the adventures awaiting you at Arts Riverview Lodge.

plearn pry and tone tuey floating raftouses
Staying at Chieow Laan's floating rafthouses is an experience not to be missed. With rainforest & majestic limestone karsts as your backdrop, you'll feel a million miles away from the hustle & bustle of city life.
Plearn Pry & Tone Tuey Floating Raftouses are located in some of the most beautiful and peaceful locations on Chieow Laan Lake. Plearn Pry is the ideal spot for canoeing and exploring Coral Cave while Tone Tuey is best for those interested in doing active and adventurous jungle trekking, including an exploration of Namtaloo Cave, which will have you scaling rocks, swimming in the cave's river and having a natural 'shower' under the cave's waterfall.
Accommodation at both rafthouses is very basic, consisting of floating bamboo rooms with a simple bed, generator electricity (which is switched off late at night), and shared bathrooms with cold water showers.
What the rafthouses lack in creature comforts, is more than made up for by the stunning scenery and tranquil jungle and lake setting.
