What do we say?
Base yourself in this unique holiday home in North East Thailand, and you will discover a side of Thailand most people miss out on. Immerse yourself in the comfort of this unique catered Thai villa, spend time cooking and chatting with the locals, and get out cycling and walking at your own pace to explore the villages, paddy fields, mountain top temples and Mekong river by bike and on foot. Your stay at Gecko Villa is also directly supporting the local community in their efforts to create a sustainable ecotourism opportunity in the area.
