The resort is set in the peaceful surroundings of the village. It is a mainly paddy growing village and this is clearly seen by the numerous terraced fields cultivated by the villagers. The village itself consists of sprinkled clumps of inhabited areas made up of the three ethnic communities of Sikkim i.e Lepcha, Bhutia and Nepalese. The resort overlooks a wide valley of terraced fields and is bounded by rich forest covered hills, which form a part of the Phambongla Wild Life Sanctuary.

This is the perfect location for visitors who love nature or adventure and for those seeking peace and relaxation. Guests may enjoy a short trek to the top of the hills to see the rich and unique Himalayan flora and fauna or enjoy the fabled Sikkimese hospitality among the villagers.
