I booked Ma Doo Bua – The Stay after seeing it all over TikTok, especially the beautiful lotus leaf pond at their café. It’s exactly like in the videos – very Instagrammable and worth visiting for photos and videos! The stay is just opposite their famous café, so it’s super convenient. My room was clean and comfortable, and customer service was good too. I booked the room through Agoda, and everything went smoothly. To take videos/photos on the lotus pond, they do charge a fee – I paid 800 Baht for a video shoot and got some amazing content! However, I wouldn’t recommend this for a long stay, because other than the café and photo spot, there’s not much to do in the area. It's perfect for a one-night stay or day trip, especially if you're coming for the TikTok-famous experience.

the place is beautiful but if you came here for the famous instagram shot then you have to book in advance as the queue for the boat pic is really long. The food and drinks were nice and you can still enjoy the giant lily ponds view , just cant get on the wooden boat for pics without booking in advance
