The place gives a calm and tranquil vibe. We had a great family time. They also have friendly fur friends. There was this cuddly cat; Ratatouille - whom we very much adore. For food, you need to order at least 2 hours a head because they cook fresh (and shop fresh too). At night, they provided us camp fire with charcoal and grill sets which we had BBQ dinner with the meat we bought from a store, which was like 6 mins walk from the stay. The breakfast was very simple. Rice and Scrambled Egg. But the rice, (I think) it's cooked over charcoal , you can smell the scent of it, which I personally liked because it brings me back to my childhood and it gives the overall essence of how people in this community lives. The rice and scrambled egg portion was big - we could even share with two people. And they are also very generous with the watermelon for dessert.

The place is great. But the road (the mountain) to the place can be steep and curvy. But if you're traveling to Doi Inthanon or experiencing Mae Hong Son loop, this should be a definite stop.

Stopped on the Mae Hong Son loop. Incredible location on the rice fields, it's exactly the experience I was looking for. The huts are basic, but it's part of the charm - if you want to feel like you're in nature, this is as close as you'll get. So good.

When approaching from the west, make sure to follow the paved highway and not the dirt road - if you get on it, turn around, do not attempt it unless your riding manual, it's wild in parts. It's a shame the bathrooms face out on to the fields and not the double doors of the huts.. a real waste of a view. Still, a minor comment. The view from the cafe area is amazing.

We really loved how cute and quaint it was. A real Thailand family home experience. The staff were wonderful and very friendly. There was a fire on when we arrived as we were on motorbikes bikes and we were frozen so was amazing to go and warm up by the fireplace. Very affordable food and accommodation.

The bungalows are a little rough with the odd insects, but that didn’t bother us. No hot water but once again we were aware from pervious reviews.

This homestay is in a Karen village and is very basic but we found it comfortable. There is no air-conditioning but we found the wall-mounted fan surprisingly effective. The food in the restaurant was fairly basic and limited (more so because we are vegetarian) but it was delicious "home-cooking" style which we enjoyed. The people working at the homestay were very welcoming, friendly and accommodating, as were the village shopkeepers and the owner of the Lazy Man cafe, which enhanced our stay a lot and involved us in the Karen culture.

The bathroom had no hot water but we survived the cold shower. There are a few attractions in the area around the village but not many - the Big Buddha, a couple of waterfalls etc. You will need a car or a scooter. It is a 40 minute (somewhat daunting) drive to the spectacular Doi Inthanon National Park. We visited the park on 3 consecutive days - well worth it!

Nongtao homestay is an amazing place for people who like to spend time in nature and in the countryside. It's very rural and quite basic, but that's exactly what we liked about it. Hikers and bikers that are interested in exploring Doi Inthanon and the surroundings will have a great time here. Breakfast (usually rice and egg/omelette) is included in the price. The owner is very friendly.

There's only cold water showers, but you'll definitely feel awake afterwards! :D

A great homestay & friendly staff. The accommodation was of a fair size. Bathroom sufficient, shower, warm water. Bottle of water in room. Bed rather soft, but ok for a night. Lovely outlook amongst rice fields. It would be nice to have a couple of chairs on the veranda to sit on to admire the views. Excellent breakfast included, omelette on rice & tea or coffee.

A wonderful quiet location, friendly hosts and a true experience of the Thai countryside. The accomodations are comfortable and the breakfast location is very scenic (note: as of July 2023 the lack of tourism means currently only breakfast is available, for lunch and dinner there are a variety of good restaurants in the area). The village is ideally located for visiting the Doi Inthanon park. We look forward to visiting again!

This was a last-minute booking and a good one. The cabins were very rustic, making the staying an experience. There was a mosquito net on the bed and a fan in the room. I thought I was gonna get bitten by mosquitos, but in fact, falling to sleep under the sounds of frogs was one of the best nights I had in Thailand. The breakfast in the morning was great too!

Amazing place, very serene and secluded from the main town. Owners were so helpful and nice. They have a restaurant overlooking the rice fields, and bonfire as it was quite cold at the time of our visit. The place totally exceeed our expectations, and is value for money. It was like an adventure stay in the middle of village in mountains. Superb place

Fantastic little home stay in a Karen Village, very remote but exactly what I expected, lovely to learn a little about the local village and way of life. A couple of options for Brekky would have been a bonus

Access to tea and coffee 24 hours would have been great as my partner is an early riser, no kettle or fridge available in the rooms but we have to remember where we are also
