Inside, spacious rooms with high open-beamed ceilings are elegantly decorated with polished floors and hardwood beds, draped in mosquito nets. Slatted blinds screen the windows and glass doors open on to a deck with loungers overlooking the water. The bathrooms come with solar-powered walk-in showers and organic products.

Dining is one of the highlights of staying at the Inle Heritage Stilt Houses. The in-house restaurant headed by chef Naing Win offers authentic Inthar and Shan dishes with a modern twist, using traditional family recipes collected from region’s grandmothers. All meals are prepared with fresh local produce and fish from the lake and served under the shaded veranda. Guests can take a Cooking Class with the house chef who will share secrets passed down through generations.

The resort’s owner, Yin Myo Su, is a passionate conservationist and has a lovely garden with plenty of spaces in the garden to relax. The Burmese cats that roam the grounds are part of Inle Heritage House’s conservation programme, and the aquarium is home to a variety of fish which are endemic to Inle Lake. There is also an art gallery featuring the works of local artists, a peaceful shrine and a library. Visit the gift shop for colourful handicrafts and take a little piece of Burma home with you.
