Just above Yāchà village, this ever-expanding place has a reasonable restaurant – it makes a sensible lunch stop – as well as a small spa and massage parlour, but the main draw is the indescribably beautiful view from the upstairs terrace. The cheapest rooms share bathrooms; the most expensive are very big and have good beds, modern bathrooms and shared balconies.
