House location

Green Gecko is set in Thailand's Northeast - locally known as Isan or Isaan. About 30 minutes out of the main town of Udon Thani, this rural Thai holiday villa sits on a large private estate surrounded by tranquil woodlands, plantations, fruit trees and gardens.

 Getting to Udon Thani

Udon Thani is easily accessed by car, train, bus or plane. Its international airport is very well served with numerous flights.

By air:

There are daily non-stop flights from Bangkok to Udon Thani (airport code UTH) on the national airline, Thai Airways, as well as on the budget airlines Nok Air and Air Asia. Nok Air is a subsidiary of Thai Airways and provides inexpensive return  flights daily.  You may book your air tickets to Udon Thani online via the internet sites of Thai Airways, Nok Air or Air Asia.

 

Air Asia operates several flights a week between Udon Thani and Phuket, for those wishing to combine a vacation on the beaches of the South with a genuine Isan holiday at Green Gecko.

 

Nok Air operates direct flights between Chiang Mai and Udon Thani.

 

By train:

The nearest small railway station is Huay Sam Phat, but the house is also easily reached from Udon Thani train station. Tickets can be booked ahead of the date of travel (or immediately prior to departure) via  the State Railways of Thailand or  a travel agency.

 

By car:

Free transfers are provided to and from Green Gecko  and the airport. 

 

If you wish to drive your own car  to the house, we will arrange a place to meet you so that you can then follow us on the last leg of your journey into the property.

 

Travel from Vientiane, Laos to Udon Thani

The border between Thailand and Laos, at the Friendship Bridge over the Mekong river at Nong Khai, is approximately 1.3 hours by car from the villa. Private transfers can be arranged from Vientiane to Green Gecko, and inexpensive coaches run between the capital of Laos (and from Nong Khai) to Udon Thani, from where we can collect you.
