Tad Lo guesthouses and hotels

There isn't any real luxury accommodation around Tad Lo falls, but there's some decent midrange, and excellent budget accommodation available. Development has been pretty haphazard, with poorly marked budget places packed together so you can't tell one from the next -- the same goes for the Saise Resort and Tad Lo Lodge, which are so intermingled you need a guide to tell you which lodge belongs to which establishment. During the rainy season, the dirt road leading to Sailomyen can get ridiculously muddy. Still, it's a wonderfully beautiful and laid back locale -- the kind of place you plan to spend a day or two but end up staying much longer.
