At Kingfisher Ecolodge, guests can soak up the tranquil beauty of Xe Pian NPA’s wetlands. The lodge played a large part in establishing tourism in this once off-the-beaten-track destination, and it remains the primary accommodation option. The lodge’s situation on the edge of the wetlands, a water world frequented by birds and water buffalo, is nothing short of idyllic. It’s all best viewed from the observation hut or one of seven “Comfort” category bungalows, sturdy raised timber bungalows with a front wall of glass and an enormous deck with hammock.
