Kirin tara pool villa เอราวัณกาญจนบุรี
Set in a quiet village in Si Sawat district near the famous Erawan Waterfall, this pool villa offers guests an entire private house with a pool and views over the Kwai Noi River. The property sits close to the Erawan dam area and is well-positioned for exploring one of Kanchanaburi's most popular natural attractions. With capacity for up to ten people, it suits families, groups, and couples looking for a self-contained retreat rather than a standard hotel room. The atmosphere leans toward rest and disconnection. Guests describe the surroundings as genuinely quiet, with a sense of calm that is harder to find at busier tourist properties. Rooms overlook the river, the local village has restaurants and convenience stores within easy reach, and pets are welcome. Breakfast is included with the stay. The property is part of a small chain offering several room types, so different group sizes and preferences can be accommodated. A practical note for prospective guests: there is no on-site kitchen for self-catering, so those who prefer to cook their own meals should factor this in. Booking appears to require direct contact with the property, as no website is currently listed. Reaching out in advance is advisable, particularly for weekends and Thai public holidays when accommodation near Erawan Waterfall fills quickly. Weekday stays are notably quieter, which may appeal to travellers seeking a more peaceful experience.

Visitor Reviews
Hello! April 20-21 for family of four, do you have room available and what is the rate? Thanks in advance, unable to find website for booking
The accommodation has a wonderful atmosphere. Staying here on a weekday felt like I had a great rest. My mind felt relaxed and recharged. I even switched off airplane mode. It was quiet and I could only hear the sounds of nature. The staff was very helpful. The accommodation is close to food options, including Amazon, a cafe, a 7-Eleven, and restaurants. The route to the accommodation is convenient. We arrived during the rainy season and woke up to a refreshing mist. It was a shame we didn't see any hornbills, but the view was worth a million. I didn't want to wake up. If I have the chance, I'll definitely go back.
Absolutely amazing, I have to review it! Great accommodation, close to tourist attractions, near the dam, amazing atmosphere. Beautiful rooms overlooking the Kwai Noi River, perfect for families or couples to relax. Close to the Srinakarin Dam viewpoint and next to Erawan National Park.
