Lodge
Kamu Lodge is an eco -lodge surrounded by
lush tropical vegetation in the heart of the Lao jungle
- a perfect hideaway for people who want to get away
from it all. It's a lodge where guests feel quickly at
home, in comfortable mosquito-free tents, where they
receive personal attention and where the individual
still matters. It's more than just a Lodge, it's a
lifestyle based on the premise that contact with nature
is essential to relieve stress, to rejuvenate and to
rediscover a sense of self. Primitive paths throughout
the area provide visitors with a dramatic experience
under a jungle canopy. Rare amphibians, birds,
butterflies, tropical flowers and plants provide
eco-tourists with many delights! Firmly committed to the
sustainability of the environment and its denizens, Kamu
Lodge brings together man an nature under the open
skies, By providing employment to the local ethnic Kamu
people living near the lodge, we ensure their livelihood
