The Spirit of Your Stay

"Wangdue Ecolodge is a sustainably built mid-range property in Wangdue Phodrang Town, constructed from rammed earth and local stone in a design that references the district's fortified dzong architecture. Twenty-five rooms overlook the confluence of the Punakha and Dang rivers far below, and the lodge's restaurant sources vegetables from its rooftop garden and dairy from a nearby cooperative. A short walk leads to the remarkable Radak Neykhang temple, one of Bhutan's most sacred Nyingma sites."

Amankora (Gangtey)

"Amankora Gangtey is the most secluded lodge in the Aman Bhutan circuit, eight suites set within a centuries-old monks' quarters building adjacent to the sacred Gangteng Monastery in the Phobjikha valley. Guests experience the extraordinary privilege of living within a living monastic community, waking to the sound of morning prayers and watching black-necked cranes drift across the glacial valley below. The lodge's emphasis on contemplative silence and deep cultural immersion makes it unique even within Aman's extraordinary portfolio."

Gangtey Lodge

"Gangtey Lodge is Bhutan's most acclaimed high-altitude luxury lodge, dramatically perched on the rim of the Phobjikha valley — one of the world's finest glacial valleys and the winter home of the endangered black-necked crane. Its twelve suites, carved in dark timber with cathedral ceilings and panoramic windows, offer an unobstructed view of the crane-filled wetlands and the distant Gangteng Monastery. The lodge delivers Bhutan's most celebrated dining experience, a wellness retreat inspired by crane migration themes, and Bhutan's most exclusive private conservation programme."

"Dewachen Hotel & Spa is a highly regarded boutique property in the heart of the Phobjikha valley, named after the Buddhist concept of the 'Blissful Heaven'. Fourteen rooms feature traditional painted wood panelling, wool-felt insulation, and large windows framing the valley's mossy meadows where black-necked cranes graze from November to March. The hotel's spa offers the valley's best hot-stone bath experience, using mineral-rich river stones heated in a traditional wood-fired oven."
