&Beyond Punakha River Lodge
Rating:
5 stars
&BEYOND Punakha River Lodge, tucked deep in the lush green Punakha Valley and draped on the banks of the Mo Chu river, is a spectacular lodge, currently offering six intimate luxury tents, a one-bedroom suite (the River House), and a two-bedroom suite (the Family Suite), enveloped by vast expanses of verdant paddy fields and dense clusters of forested hills.
Intricately built, the lodge has been created in the traditional Bhutanese architectural style and is in perfect harmony with the surrounding terrain. This will be &BEYOND’s first lodge in the magnificent kingdom of Bhutan.
Tented Suite
Six safari-style Tented Suites are delicately suspended from a traditional Bhutanese timber structure, blending seamlessly into the natural surrounds. Cleverly positioned to ensure the utmost privacy, each suite features an ensuite bathroom with an indoor and outdoor shower plus a star bath, and a private verandah.
The River House
Set along a peaceful perennial stream with unrivaled Himalayan views, the exclusive one-bedroom River House is designed for couples. Comprising two levels, the suite’s ground floor hosts a spacious lounge and dining area while upstairs boasts a lavish bedroom with an open ensuite bathroom. A private swimming pool and outdoor verandah complete the space.
The Family Suite
Spend your family fun-filled holiday at the lodge’s two-bedroom Family Suite, comprising two interconnected suites each with its own ensuite bathroom, private outdoor deck and al fresco shower. The suite also features a spacious shared lounge area, personalized bar, outdoor deck and sparkling swimming pool. Ideally positioned with a view of the Khamsum Yuelley Chorten amidst paddy fields, the suite is secluded enough to ensure family time is a priority but also close enough to the lodge for everyone to enjoy the main guest area with its world-class facilities and exciting activities.
