Downstairs is a relaxing bar with cushioned furniture complete with an open fire for the colder nights or outside seating for the warmer evenings.

Relax Topas Ecolodge is a small property and as such does not have many facilities but there is a rejuvenating spa specialising in the traditional Red Dao herbal bath, and a newly built infinity pool with great vistas. There are ample spaces in the lodge to relax or take a leisurely stroll around the nearby villages and paddy fields.

The surrounding Red River and the Muong Hoa Valley form a landscape of rippling mountains, populated by country’s ethnic minorities and trekking is a great way to get a sense of the area and meet local villages and see dramatic landscapes. Treks can range from easy to difficult.
