Fern Resort, Mae Hong Son

It's fabulous to be warmly greeted upon arrival!









Leo and Som toast with lemongrass tea as a welcome to the resort. Som was on the same plane, commuting from Chiang Mai every week. They were so great to take Leo to rent a motorbike then he followed the shuttle to the resort 7 km away.



The receptionist Nopnopas was the first to friend us on Facebook.








Love this detail!

















Sunset viewing area, with fire pit and a bar cafe just to the right of this area.







Other bungalow suites tucked in between the lush trees and shrubs where you can barely make them out. You would never hear anyone since the streams drown out any conversation. The symphony of frogs, crickets, geckos and other creatures add their natural music.







Bungalow #39 where Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt stayed last year...
This was our home sweet home, too!









From our outdoor patio...










outside our front door are brightly colored water lilies that open in the evening to reveal the fuchsia colored petals.












The restaurant where we established ourselves as the latecomers for breakfast with the staff. First morning we almost missed it and this morning they sent someone down to our bungalow to remind us and we were still late!







Everyone knows "Facebook"...












They also make their own crafts, selling them here. Leo negotiated and i purchased the two pictured here.




















The swimming pool area are surrounded by the deluxe bungalows. Suites are down below in the rice paddies where we are.







Breakfast was an event surrounded by staff. Both mornings since we were so late, we were they only ones there so service was plentiful!














After breakfast and late at night, we settled into the lobby to catch up on Internet tasks and email communication.
