Summary: This is the only hotel by the falls . Location is amazing, right by the river and small falls . It’s basic accommodation but it’s cheap and you are staying in the jungle , if you love nature you will love it . I bit chilly at night so go prepared

Summary: Great location at the base of the falls in the local’s area away from all the tour buses. Beautiful views and great proximity to explore the main falls before and after the crowds from town. Very simple accommodations- more like camping, but they did have a western style toilet. No heat or AC but we came in December when the weather was a little cooler and didn’t have a problem. Be sure to bring bug spray, though. There’s a nice restaurant next door called carpe diem that’s great for lunch but only open at that time when it’s busiest with other tourists. At night, there’s really not much else to do, so expect a very quiet, relaxed evening. We ordered the fried rice and fried pork ribs from the hotel for dinner. Both tasted good, but my husband got sick from the ribs. I’d be careful what you order since it’s more remote, if your stomach isn’t used to that kind of food. Most of the staff speak limited English, but it was fine. I would try to arrange transportation in advance if you can or take a taxi from Luang Prabang instead of the airport. We took a taxi from the airport directly and paid about 3.5x the typical rate. Overall, a nice stay, a very local experience, but if I had it to do over, I might prefer to stay in town and take a half day trip out to the falls to maximize my time since we only had a couple of days total in Luang Prabang

Summary: Amazing location - natural pools right outside your doorstep and walking distance to the entrance to Kuang Si Falls. The big balcony is great for relaxing on and the bathroom decor is lovely (feels like you’re outside). Other reviews said the room was dated/not clean but we didn’t find this to be the case at all. Food, however, was not amazing.

Summary: Eat your heart out, Martin Denny! Spending a night at Vanvisa was one of the highlights of our trip. Definitely worth splurging to get the extra-deluxe room with a terrace overlooking turquoise pools from the small waterfalls on the property. Very clean, nice big comfy bed, and the terrace is a great place to chill. It looks onto a popular swimming hole for local kids, and even though I'm totally not a kid person, it was charming to watch them splash around in the afternoon. At night, we went for a stroll in the village, and that was also a highlight--just exchanging simple greetings with the people who live there and enjoying a few hours in a world not built for tourists. An earlier TA reviewer whines that this is "basically just a village," which I find frankly infuriating. I felt lucky to get this small glimpse into rural Lao life. It's authentic, and authenticity is hard to come by these days. The homestay also faces a working monastery, and we awoke slowly to the sounds of drumming and chanting and the smell of incense. Yes, there were insects around (duh, it's a waterfall in the jungle), but none got into our room and it wasn't an issue. Getting up early to watch the sleepy bears at the sanctuary wake up--and to enjoy the magnificent falls and swimming holes before the tour buses made it out from LP--was the icing on the cake.

Summary: I have been to Luang Prabang and Kuangsi Falls previously but this was my first stay at Vanvisa. The location is great if you have seen enough of LP. You are literally right at the Falls but outside the tourist park. The hot water and shower pressure are great. I stayed in the bungalow. The dinner menu was reasonably priced and quality good. My advice is to email property after booking to arrange pickup (same price as I ended up paying by organizing tuk tuk 200,000kip). I got their car to airport- much better )it is a long way from LP and tuk Tuks don’t like driving up there in the afternoon as there are tourists returning the opposite direction. Emailing also makes sure they know you are coming! I stayed 3 nites and had walks and enjoyed being at the Falls when all tourists have gone. NO WIFI available in the hotel or village! Too far to go to LP for a visit. I will definitely be returning again.

Summary: The place is amazingly good. The staff is very friendly and helpful! Please try their fried garlic pork, it’s soooooo tasty! The homemade papaya passion fruit jam is very yummy too!! I am so glad that I chose to stay at Vanvisa a night. Waking up in this place surrounded with natural waterfall is a bliss. Please do not hesitate to stay here.
