Beautiful, peaceful place with a nice view
My family and I found Tanita lagoon resort by pure chance when we arrived in Udon Thani and were very happy that we did. It’s a beautiful resort in a peaceful location on the outskirts of town about 5 minutes from the airport; the staff are very friendly and helpful. You can take Sam Lor (tricycle type taxi) into the town if you do not have transport of your own and also the staff are happy to run you to different places as needed. The resort now has internet wifi which was installed as we arrived. Also is a swimming pool being built which should be completed by early June 2009 (Unfortunately no good for us on this trip however we will be back to enjoy the pool the next time). My family and I have stayed in various places in and around Udon Thani and this is by far the most enjoyable relaxing trip we’ve had. I look forward to seeing it as it develops further, there have been more large trees, shrubs and hedges transplanted into the resort recently and more facilities to follow, so I’m told. It looked good before..
There are several good restaurants nearby and a large supermarket which conveniently open as we arrived. All within 5 minutes drive with a Sam Lor or a lift from the staff.
If you want to be in the town centre then maybe it’s not the place for you however we managed to get around with a small child fairly easily during our stay so it’s definitely worth paying a visit. To make your stay the more enjoyable it helps if you have your own car but not an absolute requirement.
