Dokchampa Guesthouse - Ban Khon

Dokchampa Guesthouse: Riverfront rooms with private balconies and hammocks in Ban Khon

Rooms & Amenities

Dokchampa Guesthouse offers 8 rooms with private balconies directly over the Mekong River. Each Deluxe Double or Twin Room with River View includes a hammock, dining table, and parquet floors. Guests have access to a terrace, bicycle rental, and a currency exchange service.

On-Site Dining

The guesthouse restaurant serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner across the road from the rooms. A Mako fish dish prepared by the owner was rated as one of the best meals by a solo traveler. The restaurant does not serve dinner on some nights; guests can also eat at nearby Orange Restaurant and Nanas.

Location & Transport

Dokchampa Guesthouse is located 1300 ft from the Don Khone ferry terminal on the quieter Don Khon island. A ferry boat drops off and picks up guests directly at the hotel. The property is 95 miles from Pakse International Airport, with easy access to two waterfalls on Don Khon and the busier neighbor Don Det.

Activities & Services

Bicycle rental is available at the guesthouse for 60 pence per day, allowing guests to cycle to waterfalls and around both islands. The owner arranges local tours and onward travel from the balcony. A laundry service is available 300 ft from the guesthouse in low season.

Guest Feedback

Guests consistently rate the property 10/10 for its spacious rooms and direct Mekong views. One couple described their stay as 'one of the highlights of our trip' thanks to the two hammocks and terrace table. The owners have been called 'the sweetest people' and provide ferry pickup and English-speaking support.
