The Thiripyistaya Sanctuary Resort is situated on the banks of the legendry Irrawaddy. It sprawls over 24 acres of landscaped gardens, which is home to mature tropical trees and flowering plants, as well as native birds and a number of small tame animals. Oriented towards the west, the Resort revels in panoramic river views, glorious sunsets and silver moonglow, and a pervading atmosphere of profound peace, warmth and comfort.
The bungalow-style rooms at Thiripyistaya Sanctuary Resort, come with either garden or river views. All the rooms are furnished with a mini-bar, air-conditioning, satellite television, kimonos and hair dryers. We recommend the deluxe river view rooms that have huge picture windows, which look out to the Irrawaddy River and a private veranda. Those looking for more space can book the spacious luxury suite. These have a private veranda from which to view dramatic sunsets.
The facilities at the hotel include a number of dining options, serving Myanmar (Burmese), Asian and Western dishes. The Thiripyitsaya Spa, offers a range of massages and treatments and Vipassana method of meditation is conducted by a Buddhist monk. To relax, there is an enormous swimming pool with a Pavilion Lounge to keep you hydrated. In the day, experience the bustling Nyaung Oo market or explore Bagan’s noted pagodas. Then enjoy a sunset cruise on the Irrawaddy river.
