Lamai Homestay is situated in Ko Pet, a rice village in the heart of rural Isan.   We built it ourselves - with help from the local villagers. The house is surrounded by beautiful gardens growing bananas, papaya, mango and custard apple. There is a cool, shady barbecue and eating area in the garden and a splashpool nearby to rest tired feet.

As we accommodate a maximum of six people, you are always assured of the best attention and privacy.   It is ideal for families - we have two daughters of our own - Lizi who is ten years old and baby Jolie who was born in February 2010. 

Khopet Village is a genuine, totally original, unspoilt environment where you can experience a wonderfully relaxed Thai lifestyle. You will instantly be welcomed and invited to participate in, or simply enjoy watching every-day life going on around you.   It is not a commercial village at all.  It is a working rural village where real life goes on with or without tourists. 

What we offer is a unique experience.  You have the genuine Thai experience of living with Lamai and her family - parents, aunts and uncles, brothers and sisters.  You will also have English input from me (Jimmy).  I have lived here for eleven years and have learned all the traditions, the culture, the religion, the superstitions, and can pass the knowledge on to you. 

Be it rice planting/cutting, silk or rug making, there's always something to see. We are also within day-trip distance of Phimai (Khmer temples), Ban Prasat (archaeological site), Khorat city, Dan Kwian (pottery) as well as a range of smaller, lesser known places of interest.
