I have stayed here several times over the last year. The owners and their son, Nay, are so incredibly kind. We have gotten to know them well and feel as though we are at a home away from home at Kwanlah homestay. The food is always amazing and satisfying with fresh seasonal fruit and butterfly pea tea with honey and lime always ready. The rooms are clean and comfortable and Nay makes delicious coffees in the mornings. The grounds and shared spaces are beautifully curated and welcome good conversations with others who stay. It is in a quiet area near the river but just a few minute walk from the market and main roads of Mae Chaem. As an added bonus the two small dogs are a joy to hang out with and will make you smile!

That I couldn't stay for longer!

Kwanlah Homestay Review Kwanlah Homestay truly sets the bar high for a cozy and welcoming getaway! From the moment we arrived, we were struck by how clean, spacious, and delightfully homey the rooms were. It felt less like a temporary stay and more like a home away from home. The amenities are thoughtfully provided—reliable WiFi, a powerful air conditioning system (a lifesaver in hot weather!), and ample parking space to accommodate guests with vehicles. The shared dining area is a thoughtful touch, complete with a microwave, kettle, plates, and cutlery—everything you need to prepare a quick snack or enjoy a meal at your convenience. The owners are the heart of this homestay, exuding warmth and hospitality that make you feel immediately at ease. Their friendliness extends to the adorable resident pets—a few charming cats and a dog that are sure to win your heart. While the location is great, one minor note: arriving at night might be a bit tricky as the signage isn’t the easiest to spot. But honestly, that’s a small trade-off for the wonderful experience that awaits you here. Adding to the charm is the included breakfast, which was a delightful bonus. The other guests were just as lovely, creating a communal and friendly vibe that’s rare to find. For a first-timer at a homestay, Kwanlah has set the gold standard—it’s a place I’d gladly return to and recommend wholeheartedly!

Visited for one night with my teenaged daughter. Beautiful property with wonderful warm owners. Room is traditionl wooden thai built and amazing. Beds great, hot water shower, super super chilled environment. Perfect after a long drive from mae hong song. I really enjoyed speaking my poor thai with the owners, who were patient and helpful. Breakfast was superb and very communal with the other guests. Highly recommended.

The hospitality from the owners and their son was exceptional. I asked for some extra pillows and had them almost immediately. A local breakfast and dinner was provided and the son brewed some very tasty local coffee. They have some pet dogs who provided much entertainment. On departure after a 2 day stay I was given directions to drive back to Chiang Mai that were off the beaten track and it was a great recommendation.

We spent one night here when we drove on the Mae Hong Son Loop. The room was basic but we had a bathroom with hot shower. Breakfast is also included and the owners are very nice people who will give you good advice where to eat and what to see in the area.

The bathroom was not super clean, but it was okay for a quick shower.

Really nice hostel with nice garden, bed was comfy with mosquito net. Free tea/coffee fruit and top up your water at the water fountain. Right around the corner from the town center. The staff here go about and beyond to make your stay a good one. I was doing the mae hong son loop and I never got his name but he helped me everyway possible to make my trip more memorable, using Google maps he pinned out the not to miss sights and everyone of his suggestions were on point. Check out the showers never seen a shower work like that before.

It was better than expected. The garden and kitchen outside has many chillout places so you don't need to spend too much time into your room. There are dogs and cats to pet. Beds are very hard and therefore good, room is spacious and everything works. Bathroom could be better, water was not very hot, but it's at least ok. Location is a village/town, you have restaurants, 7/11, etc. there but it's very quiet and after dark nothing's going on. You can like that or not.

Bathroom water wasn't hot. Location is a bit far from Doi Inthanon tourist attractions.

The room was spacious and clean, we loved the family environment around the whole place. Also, the owner Nai has been super friendly with us, he suggested thousands of places for food and spot to visit around the area. Definitely recommended!

The hosts are such a lovely couple and treated me like their daughter when my bike broke down and they gave me hugs and lifts to the mechanic! I stayed an extra night, such a lovely place ❤️ The breakfast table setup means it’s easy to meet other travellors and the hosts joined each morning to say hello and check in how everyone is going 😌

Charming traditional house, very nice owners. The whole family! The son has many tips for things to do and see. Breakfast with Thai food and toast with jam and honey.

No problems, everything was OK.
