    We had an amazing visit to the charming traditional village where local dancers brought age-old stories to life with their captivating performances. From the royal ballet to rural life, folk tales, and legends, the dancers truly showcased the rich cultural heritage of the region. Our children were mesmerized by the vibrant costumes and graceful movements, creating memories that will last a lifetime.

    For dads, it would be great to have more interactive activities for children.

    I had an amazing experience at Sanctum Inle Resort. the staff went above and beyond to make me feel welcome and were always ready to assist with anything I needed. the highlight of my stay was the delicious breakfast, which was by far the best I had during my holiday. the restaurant also impressed me with its fantastic food. I took advantage of the spa services on a few rainy afternoons and I highly recommend them. Cons: Could not be improved in any way. 😊.

    The king bedrooms at Sanctum Inle Resort were absolutely amazing! Each room had its own tiled bathroom with a tub and shower, which made getting ready in the mornings a breeze. The shared living room was a great place to hang out with my family and relax after a long day of exploring Inle Lake. As a guest who values comfort and space, I couldn't have asked for more.

    Personally, I found the stilted homes at Sanctum Inle Resort to be a bit nerve-wracking. The fact that they perch precariously above the water levels that rise and fall with the seasons made me a little uneasy.

    This hotel is absolutely stunning and oozes cozy colonial style. It's like stepping into a stylish time machine! The spa, restaurant, and private boat tour are all reasonably priced for a 5-star experience. The rooms are well-equipped and spotlessly clean. The breakfast options are varied and delicious, especially the croissants and noodle soup. The staff are responsive, helpful, and attentive. The resort is well maintained and the guests all have impeccable manners. Highly recommended for a retreat in Myanmar!

    Just magical. We arrived by long boat and loved every minute. The manager greeted us with tea and the infinity pool was a dream. The food was delicious with options for everyone. The comfy beds and pillow menu ensured a restful night. I highly recommend this hotel.

    First, the hotel is super chill and the staff is lit! We chilled by the dope infinity pool, sipping on tasty cocktails. Then we rented bikes and rode to the nearby village where we saw traditional Lao dancers slay the stage with their sick moves! We even got to see some legit stilt houses, fam!

    Only thing missing for us party animals was a lit nightclub nearby. We wanted to dance like there's no tomorrow!

    We had a fantastic stay at Sanctum Inle Resort! We were upgraded to the Provost Suite and the room was absolutely amazing. The hotel is a perfect spot to relax and unwind, with beautiful views of the lake. The breakfast was delicious, especially the croissants. The staff were friendly and accommodating, even fulfilling our request for croissants at dinner. The spa was lovely and reasonably priced. Taking a boat trip around the lake was the highlight of our stay. We highly recommend this hotel for a peaceful and enjoyable break.

    Can just recommend this hotel.

    The location of this hotel is unbeatable, right on the edge of the lake with a dock that allowed for easy boat trips to nearby villages. The staff were helpful and the cleanliness of the hotel was exceptional. The breakfast was delicious and the facilities were top-notch.

    Nothing all excellent.

    The Sanctum Inle Resort was a truly blissful retreat for me. The hotel's decoration exuded elegance and style, with beautifully crafted wood furnishings throughout. The general areas, such as the infinity pool and terrace, offered breathtaking views of the lake and provided a serene atmosphere for relaxation. As a senior woman, I found the accessibility of the resort to be excellent, with spacious rooms and well-maintained walkways, making it easy for me to navigate around the property.

    If I had to suggest one improvement for a better vacation for senior people, it would be to have more handrails and assistance available in certain areas. While the children working there were incredibly kind and helpful, having additional support for mobility would have been beneficial for us seniors.

    The hotel was located in a beautiful building with luxurious decoration and furniture. The swimming pool overlooking the lake was a delight, and the staff was very polite and professional. I enjoyed having breakfast with a great selection of food, including some international options. they offer excursions and boat tours.

    The hotel’s location was a bit isolated and far from city amenities, but this is normal in most of the hotels in this area. , the hotel was a bit overpriced compared to other similar hotels in the region.

    We found the area quite charming, with a little bar painted green halfway down a teak bridge and a few boats available to rent right on the edge of Inle Lake. the rooms were spotless and spacious with a marble-tiled bathroom and balcony. the breakfast spread was extensive, and the staff was kind and attentive. the infinity pool overlooked the lake and the exterior lounge areas were perfect for a sundowner.

    The day tours offered by the hotel were more expensive than other operators.

    The hotel offered great amenities such as a well-maintained infinity pool with a stunning view of the sunset. the breakfast and dinner menu had a good variety and tasted delicious, and the rooms were spacious and bright with big windows. the hotel's staff was very friendly and professional.

    The air conditioning in the room was not very effective, which made it uncomfortable for a good sleep. Getting to the hotel was a long drive from the airport, but the peaceful scenery during the journey made up for it.
