Inle Heritage Stilt Houses was established in 2009. Comprising ten wonderfully designed bungalows built on stilts in the style of a traditional Inle Lake village, with the whole hotel set on stilts and raised walkways over Inle Lake. The property and nearby village grow all their own herbs and vegetables on floating gardens that surround the hotel. Dining at this hotel cuisine could not be fresher with all produce coming from their own organic gardens or local farmers. The brainchild of the owner Misuu, a local lady, Inle Heritage is in fact a foundation where all proceeds from the business support a vocational school for local youth interested in embarking on a career in restaurants or hospitality. Surrounded by organic vegetable gardens, guests can relax on their private deck and enjoy the spectacular sunsets from their personal retreat, enhanced by authentic local cuisine.
