Not the cheapest option, but nicely located near Chiang Dao in the middle of nature. Grrrrrreat food! Try one of the Thai menus, it is amongst the best thai food I ever ate! Staff is friendly and helpful.

We stayed in May 2012 at Chiang Dao Nest 1 for 5 days. The resort is close to the nature with eco- friendly bungalows (non A.C) and nice swimming pool. We went there as a part of our honeymoon after Koh Samui days. We loved the location and decoration of the resort but the most nice thing was friendliness of... More

If you had friends who invited you up to their country place, this is what it would be like. Simple, pleasant, comfortable accommodation and sitting in the "open air" dining room talking with friends over breakfast, watching the children play with the goats and cat or talking late into the night after a fabulous dinner. The owners and their family... More

You are up away from town, but close to everywhere you want to go. Doi Chiang Dao towers over the grounds, and is very scenic. There is a trek available to climb it, if looking at it isnn't enough for you. Chiang Dao cave is a short walk, as is Wat Thum Phaprong (the temple with 510 steps). Don't miss... More

We chose the CDN on the basis of previous reviews and are so pleased that we did. All of the positives refered to by others were born out by our experience, We dithered about choosing 1 or 2 and eventually went for the latter. Again a good choice for us. It was more spread out, quiter and above all had... More

I cannot believe the couple of negative reviews I've read. Nest 1 is a home away from home, Wicha, Stuart & staff are the perfect hosts. Having lived in Thailand for over 8 years the flying termites are something that happens, not just in Chiang Dao, but all over the Kingdom, they usually come out for a maximum of 1... More

Chiang Dao itself is a tiny, serene village just over an hour from Chiang Mai. To have a place like te nest tucked in one of its sleepy corners is a real treat and my partner and I will certainly be returning. It's a rustic set-up and it's not that cheap when compared to similar resort set ups, but the... More

If I could give this place a -5 rating, I would. This is a place where I would send my worst enemy if I had one. We stayed at Nest 2. When we arrived, there was no welcome. We had no clue where to check in. We were just ushered over to a log book where we logged down our... More

We stayed for 2 nights at this wonderful place (Chiang Dao Nest 1) and it was by far the best place we stayed at in our 3 weeks in Thailand. The setting is wonderful with access to some great walks and (for me) birding sites! Stuart, the owner and fellow Norwich City fan, was extremely welcoming as were all of... More

I stayed at Chiang Dao Nest 1 for 3 nights and shared a twin bungalow with a friend. We were travelling the north of Thailand for about 3 weeks and this was definitely the best place of our trip!! They have a "no signs" and "low light" policy, this is so you can enjoy nature and wildlife without distraction. Each... More
