The mud resort is conservative, simple and most suitable for those who are fond of an authentic nature experiencing with privacy (still only 20 meters walking to civilization).

Accommodation and facilities:
The perfect place when you don t want to stay in a hotel room that is the same as every other room the world over. The family, staff and very friendly family dogs made you feel welcome and feel as if you are experiencing the real Thailand. A wonderful place to stay, a short distance from night markets, the old city etc and with a short stroll through the garden to the Ping River. I strongly recommend this hotel to anyone who would prefer a fantastic Thailand experience rather than a chocolate-on-the-pillow style characterless hotel.
Accommodation and facilities:
Very good experience. Outstanding location among rice fields and mountains. Good for relaxing at the nature.

Accommodation and facilities:
Very clean and roomy bungalows. They where very helpfull with picking our tours and made us feel like family while at the resort! We where in Chiang Mai to do day-touring, and the Scorpion Tailed boat village was the ideal base we needed to see the area! These people know their town,, and were a great help for making plans! The free internet computer was very usefull too!
We travelled around Thailand for 24 days, and spent 3 nights here,,,this was by far the cleanest of all the bungalows with the most friendly and best service we had!
The only problem which is out of their hands,, is the music from across the river in the evenings! But we were so beat from our day touring,,, we still had no problem getting to sleep!
With no pool or tv,, this isn t the place to plan to lounge around at, but if your there to see the area,, its a good place to come back to after your tours!

Accommodation and facilities:
Very secluded by river. May be difficult to find but if you say its by the the Farham temple this will get you there. Owners very welcoming and if you like quiet this is the place for you (even no TV in room but I did not notice at first). Easy to get Tuk Tuks to the night bizarre. I would stay again.

This is coming home in Thailand...
The very friendly owners of Scorpion Tail have a natural feeling of hospitality.Without disturbing you in your privacy they are always there for you for questions,bookings,good advices and a friendly word.
Or a little playing around with their great,cute dog.
They manage to give you the feeling of being family within the shortest time.
The rooms are very clean and cosy.
Breakfast is made with love.
We first stayed one night when we left for a 4day trip by car.
Coming back we looked forward to stay another night here,as we said before,the feeling of coming home a bit.
Just great!!!
Also recommendable is the trip on the scorpion tail boat wich is owned by them.
Don t doubt to book this nice place...

Accommodation and facilities:
I can highly recommend the Scorpian Tailed Boat Village and can t wait to visit again. The rooms are clean with mosquito nets over the beds. There was water in the fridge for us. We enjoyed meeting other guests at breakfast. The owners were friendly and helpful. They took us to the airport when we couldn t get a taxi. After having a bit of a banana crisis in OZ we enjoyed eating the home grown bananas at the village and finished off our trip with a Scorpian Tailed Boat ride, which was very entertaining. We were able to book tours from the Village and it was within walking distance to the night bazaar and another market before it. We were only in Chiang Mai for a short time but we loved it. I m looking forward to my next visit.
