Really good Culinary Experience

The dining experience at Fish Tail Lodge was nothing short of very nice. The restaurant had an extensive menu that featured a variety of delicious dishes. I was particularly impressed that the chef himself came to check on our meal, which was the best I've had in Nepal! Breakfast overlooking the lake with a amazing view of the Annapurna range was truly a highlight of my stay.

Heavenly Relaxation

I indulged in a soothing massage at the spa during my stay, and it was a perfect cherry on top of my relaxing getaway. The spa staff were wonderful and the atmosphere was so serene; I felt completely rejuvenated after spending an hour and a half there! It was one of the best experiences after long days of exploration.

Stunning Room Views

I stayed in a Deluxe room that was spacious and equipped with all the essential amenities. The highlight was the private patio which offered lovely views of the garden and the lake, making it easy to unwind with a morning coffee. The comfort level was excellent, and the peaceful surroundings provided a welcome escape from the busy city.

Tranquil Ambiance

Fish Tail Lodge provided a peaceful escape with its beautiful gardens and serene environment, perfect for unwinding after a day of sightseeing. I found myself enjoying quiet moments by the fireplace, which was very cozy after a long day. The lovely outdoor spaces around the lodge were ideal for leisurely strolls while soaking in nature's beauty.

My stay at Fish Tail Lodge was a wonderful experience. The scenic location right on Lake Fewa provided breathtaking views, and the rooms were cozy and well-appointed. The staff was exceptionally courteous and attentive, making us feel right at home. However, the dining options could be improved, as I wish there was more variety. Overall, it’s a great value for a relaxing getaway in Pokhara.

I had a memorable stay at Fish Tail Lodge, set against the stunning backdrop of Pokhara Lake and lush mountains. The unique raft journey to the property added a special touch to the experience. While the staff were wonderfully attentive and made my anniversary celebration unforgettable, I did encounter some inconsistencies in service during my stay. The dining options could improve, but overall, it was a serene getaway in a picturesque setting.

I had an incredible time at Fish Tail Lodge, nestled on a beautiful peninsula overlooking Fewa Lake. The scenic gardens and views of the Annapurna Range were stunning, making it a unique escape from the bustling Kathmandu. While the rooms were a bit dated and the breakfast could use some variety, the charm of the lodge and its serene setting truly made my stay special. I particularly enjoyed sipping coffee on the terrace, although the Wi-Fi situation was somewhat inconvenient as only one device could connect at a time.

My stay at The Fishtail Lodge was filled with stunning surroundings and friendly service, though the room condition was disappointing. The unique experience of reaching the resort by raft added to the charm, but it was countered by the upkeep issues in our rooms. The good dining options and the beauty of the location make it a place I would consider revisiting, but only if improvements are made.
