Discover an exceptional and healing herbal bath, a well-kept secret of the Red Dao people! 😚 Our tribe is dedicated to the use of medicinal herbs, and our bath combines a harmonious blend of over 15 varieties of plants, leaves, and woods sourced directly from the forest. Benefits include restoring your strength, combating colds, detoxifying skin pores, and promoting peaceful sleep. Traditionally, we prepare the bath to be quite hot to enhance circulation, but feel free to adjust the temperature by adding cold water for a more comfortable experience. Relax, unwind, and immerse yourself in the divine aroma—it's a true delight for both body and mind! We like to say you'll feel twice as youthful, five times stronger, and ten times smarter after your bath, though we can’t guarantee those results. 😅 Are you ready to give it a try? 😋😋😋 Please, book your herbal bath at least three hours in advance. This allows us to boil and properly infuse the medicinal herbs over a wood fire, ensuring the highest quality for you! Since the bath takes place at our homestay, you can soak for as long as you wish. If it becomes too hot, feel free to take a break, sip some tea, and return as often as you'd like. We provide plenty of extra hot herbal water to keep your bath warm. The longer you stay, the happier we are! 😁 ✨ Complete your experience with our Mini-Spa Kits! ✨ For adults, each kit includes a natural loofah (plant-based exfoliating sponge) and a pumice stone — say hello to silky-smooth and happy skin! 🥰🍃 And because everyone deserves a little spa magic, kids get their very own playful version too! 🥳💦🌈 Our bathtubs are crafted from wood, and we offer two types: the traditional round tub and the deluxe long tub.
