Accommodation
A colonial mansion reminiscent of the days when it was it was home to the ruler of Burma’s southern states. Commanding a privileged position just ten minutes from majestic Shwedagon Pagoda. Rooms, which are graced by teak floors and stone baths, are set around a verdant garden dotted with lotus pools - the beautiful swimming pool being an idyllic spot to relax on a lounger after sightseeing. Dine indoors or alfresco in the Mandalay Restaurant, or choose a shady corner on the lawn. Cocktails are served in the tranquil upstairs lounge bar.
The best time to visit most areas is during the cooler season from October to February. The hottest months are from March to May when the rainy season begins. The rains last from mid May until the end of September and are followed by cooler, more comfortable weather.
