We were delighted to be selected by Thai Airways' inflight magazine as one of the Top 10 Green Destinations in the world, in the July 09 edition of Sawasdee magazine.

Gecko Villa, near Udon Thani in northeast Thailand, was praised for being a "perfect antidote to hotel holidays" and for the distribution of revenues amongst the local villagers participating in the villa project.

Other winners included The Serena Serengeti Lodge in Tanzania, the Hotel Budir in Iceland, and La Residence Phou Vao in Luang Prabang in Laos. This last property is now accessible from Gecko Villa via three weekly flights connecting Luang Prabang and Udon Thani on Lao Airlines.
