At a glance
Make lunch part of the Mae Taeng experience.
A visit to Bua Tong often finishes around lunchtime. Doona offers a slower alternative to another roadside stop: a warm wooden dining room, Thai dishes and countryside views a short drive away. Because this is a small independent resort, contact the team before travelling so they can confirm the kitchen and table availability for that day.
From limestone cascades to a quiet table.
Doona is approximately 18 minutes by road from Bua Tong Sticky Waterfall. Actual travel time changes with weather, traffic and your starting point, so use live directions when leaving the waterfall.
A meal that still feels connected to place.
The table at Doona belongs to the same rice-field landscape as the resort. Ask the team about the dishes available that day rather than relying on a fixed online menu.
Stay for coffee and a quieter afternoon.
After an active morning, the wooden dining room and garden surroundings offer space to pause. Overnight guests can continue to the pool, while day visitors can plan the next Mae Taeng stop.
