We were stunned at the beauty of the property; how huge the room, bathroom, shower, and tub were; and the lovely staff and breakfast. Being a bit outside of town was very pretty and relaxing but still convenient (with a car). Unbelievable experience, particularly for they price!

If you're looking for a connection with nature and lovely accommodating staff you'll find it here. This is not the place to be if you like the hustle and bustle of a big city. We arrived here after a week in Bangkok and it was just what we needed! Staff arranged a local driver to take us to outlying Wats that are beautiful, to a pottery shop, coffee farms, etc. everyone we encountered we're most gracious.... wonderful stay!

This was my favorite resort stay ever. The staff was amazingly helpful and sweet. Bura is a magical paradise, well suited for connecting with nature. The craftsmanship of the room was inspiring and the restuarant served us delicious thai food. We walked to the waterfall within 15 minutes, and it is still close to the airport and town. I would highly recommend the deluxe room for honeymooners.

This place is in the mountains. You will definitely connect with nature. The staff was amazing. I find the staff here to be the nicest. They will go out of their ways to help you. They left me with good memories for the rest of my life. Life changing experience and I will be back. Hanna was my translator and she was a huge help to me on my solo trip to Thailand.

Everything was absolutely wonderful. The location was great to get out of the busy city. The staff was beyond friendly—they make you feel like houseguests and make sure you know how to get to all the local spots (market, temples, hot springs), and they even drive you! The grounds are immaculate. We can’t recommend Bura enough

Perfect place to relax

We stopped for a couple of days to relax before the second part of our trip to Thailand. Bura resort is quiet, nestled in a beautiful garden. The staff is extremely nice and attentive and the food is great. We would go back without hesitation.

Amazing Special Place

We had read some hotel reviews before booking so we had a feeling it was a nice place to stay but we were still overwhelmed by what an amazing place The Bura is and how welcome the owners and staff make you feel. We were picked up from the airport by the owners, which we arranged by email through Hotels.com. The resort is a little out of the way but this is part of its charm and it is a beautiful tranquil location with amazing landscaping. The staff are all really friendly but not intrusive and they really went out of their way to help me with things like finding a laundry service (and taking me there and back). Taking me to buy a birthday cake for our friend, showing me the local market and booking massages for us at the nearby hot springs. They helped us with our transport arrangements, whether it was finding us a driver to take us to all the popular sites in the area or arranging taxis to pick us up from Chiang Rai Town when we visited there. They wrote directions to the Bura in Thai and gave us the resort's number in case we had any problems getting back. The accomodation is lovely and clean and very spacious. The breakfast menu is smaller than in some hotels but very tasty and makes a nice change from wasteful buffets in some hotels. The lunch and dinner menu was extensive and reasonably priced and we chose to come back and eat at the Bura most evenings because it is lovely eating out in the open air there. It really is a wonderful piece of paradise.

Best resort in Chiang Rai

This place is a steal. Only 8 villas on a beautiful lay out landscape and waterfalls. Villas are generous in size with huge bath room. Breakfast was good, choice of western or Thai and you can order more if you want. We have dinner here for 2 nights as the food was excellent and reasonable price.

Escape to Paradise.

A beautiful resort away from the city. The villas were so beautiful and large. The shower and soaker tub was a real treat. Loved sitting on my private deck overlooking ponds and waterfalls and drifting off to sleep with the sounds of the jungle. The food was delicious and the staff were all very lovely. I highly recommend this beautiful resort if you want to make an escape to paradise. One thing to note is the WiFi was terrible. Hopefully they address that.
