In close proximity to the heart of Laos’ UNESCO World Heritage Site, Rosewood Luang Prabang invites travelers to unveil the destination’s old-world charm, the town’s spellbinding Buddhist temples, and the region’s natural beauty through three thoughtfully curated experiential packages.
A Sense of Laos
For those seeking an introduction to this landlocked Southeast Asian country, A Sense of Laos captures the soul of the region. Guests will revel in the resort’s village-like atmosphere, enjoying a walking tour of Luang Prabang’s iconic landmarks, indulgent spa treatments, and culinary delights, including daily breakfasts at The Great House and a scrumptious High Tea spread. A unique fishing session at the resort and complimentary bicycles enhance the journey, while roundtrip transfers and fast-track arrival services ensure seamless travels.
Family Memories
A package designed to inspire wonder and a sense of adventure in every family member, whatever the age. Highlights include a visit to the captivating Kuang Si Waterfall, a heartwarming excursion to the Buffalo Farm, and an unforgettable half-day experience at the private Mandalao Elephant Sanctuary. Parents can enjoy some me-time with complimentary babysitting services, while the entire family is entertained with resort activities like fishing, local Tuk Tuk rides, and daily breakfasts in The Great House.
Festival of Lights
Timed to the vibrant Festival of Lights (Boun Lai Heua Fai) in October 2025, which marks the end of the Buddhist lent, this special package offers a profound connection to Luang Prabang’s spiritual and cultural essence. Begin your stay with a morning alms-giving ritual, followed by a guided temple walk to witness the preparations for the festival’s lantern-filled celebrations. A themed dinner inspired by the flavors of Luang Prabang at The Great House will deepen your appreciation for Laotian culinary heritage, while the magical parade of boats and lights on October 8 will leave you spellbound.
Each package thoughtfully blends luxurious accommodations, immersive local experiences and cultural engagement, embodying the spirit of Rosewood’s A Sense of Place® philosophy.
“At Rosewood Luang Prabang, our aim is to craft meaningful stays that resonate deeply with our guests,” said Adrien Pons, Resort Manager at Rosewood Luang Prabang. “These packages invite time-rich travelers to explore the heart and soul of Laos, fostering moments of discovery and connection.”

About Rosewood Luang Prabang
Designed by the acclaimed Bill Bensley, Rosewood Luang Prabang is a destination where history and luxury converge. Nestled within a riverside setting, the 23-key estate—comprising Riverside Rooms and Suites, Riverside Villas, Waterfall Pool Villas, and signature Hilltop Tents—reflects the timeless elegance of a bygone era. Under Bensley’s vision, the resort was meticulously restored in accordance with UNESCO guidelines, preserving its original Lao structures and historical character. Anchored by a cascading natural waterfall, the estate features The Great House and The Elephant Bridge Bar, perched above the river where elephants once waded. The resort tells a story of cultural fusion and adventure, drawing inspiration from the history of French explorers in Laos. This narrative is reflected in the eclectic mix of design elements, from vintage travel trunks and antique furnishings to maps and other artifacts that make each accommodation distinctive, blending French colonial aesthetics with Laotian artistry and craftsmanship. The Hilltop Tents, in particular, present décor that reflects a different aspect of Laotian culture through its local tribes. This thematic approach adds a layer of intrigue and personalization, turning each stay into a unique experience. A resort unlike any other, Rosewood Luang Prabang offers an intimate and immersive stay in the proximity of a UNESCO World Heritage Site, redefining experiential luxury through a sense of adventure.
