Bagan Lodge is located in Old Bagan makes it a brilliant base to explore the surrounds. It’s like a tented ‘sarai’, a relaxing stop off point on your adventure into the maze of Bagan temples. The entrance sets the tone for the experience with the resort grounds, tended to with precision and the bar; restaurant, spa and pools (two of them) also perfectly executed. The villas are dotted around the spacious grounds, all topped with a canvas roof tent. All the villas are well appointed, well serviced and comfortable with ample wardrobe space.
The rooms in Bagan Lodge have a fusion of classic Burmese design and contemporary decor. Decorated with gleaming teak floors and handmade furniture the earthy tones of the rooms have a distinctive oriental yet classic style. Both rooms and suites have their own private balconies where you can enjoy the sun and a cocktail whilst looking out onto the lodge’s pristine gardens. The bathrooms are large and memorable. My favourite feature was the 'rain' shower.
The lodge’s Tiffin Box open-air restaurant serves authentic Myanmar cuisine as well as Western favourites. The Pool Bar serves up refreshing cocktails or fresh fruit juices, with snacks available to order. The Lobby Lounge Bar serves afternoon coffee or pre-dinner beverage. There is also a spa at Bagan Lodge, with 8 treatments rooms.

Relax The Spa at the Bagan Lodge has eight private treatment rooms offering a wide range of relaxing and beauty treatments. There is a large Jacuzzi that can accommodate 8 people. The secret is hydrotherapy, nature’s 100% natural way to help the body help itself. There is a fitness centre and a 20-metre lap pool to cool off during the hot afternoons.
Experience The Travel Desk at the Bagan Lodge can arrange local tours to the archaeological zone with a private guide and transport. Visit Bagan temples and surrounding villages to experience a day in the life of local Burmese. Transport in the area is by horse cart but biking tours provide a wonderful experience. The roads are flat, open and devoid of any traffic and the views of the thousands of temples alongside the roads are out of the world.
Location Bagan Lodge is situated on Myat Lay Road in New Bagan. Set near the archaeological zone, it offers convenient access to some of the world’s most magnificent temples, including the Bagan’s largest temple Dhammayangyi, which is within walking distance of the resort.
Getting There Yangon airport has undergone a major renovation and facilitates both international and domestic terminals. Bagan Nyaung Oo airport is easily accessible by air from Yangon. From the airport to New Bagan, it takes about 15-20 minutes by car.
When to go The best time to visit Myanmar is between October and April when the weather is dry and not so hot. At this time the warm and sunny days are ideal for sightseeing throughout the country. The temperatures start to rise in March and May to September is best avoided as this is the rainy season when sightseeing can become difficult.
