The beautiful small town of Pai, located in the northern province of Mae Hong Son, Thailand, just three hours from Chiang Mai, became famous since the release of the film ‘Pai In Love’ in 2009. Shortly after, another movie titled ‘Lost in Thailand’ featured various landscapes of Pai - further boosting an international interest in this tranquil destination. People said they never really expect themselves to fall in love with Pai, until they arrived. The stunning nature, great food, and good-natured locals often appeal to travellers who are tempted to stay longer. But when we talk about accommodation in Pai, let’s be honest: there’s no better place to stay other than Baan Krating Pai Resort. The room rate starting from 30 USD per night for double bed promises an affordable retreat.
