According to the hotel, 16 clay cottages reflect the earthiness of the Pa-ta-pea clan, which believed in a strong connection to the Earth and were leaders in agriculture.
Seven tent villas are inspired by the nomadic Khon-Jorn tribe of wanderers who excelled in hunting and trading.
The hotel also boasts seven treehouses inspired by the We-ha clan, whose people worshipped the university and lived in trees to be closer to the sky.
Keemala’s bird nest villas reflect the opulent lifestyle – compared to other clans, at least – led by the Rung-Nok people. The interwoven design of their homes helped with protection and privacy.
