The photos do not do justice to this beautiful property. With each dinner expertly prepared by Jerry and with Howie’s insightful touring suggestions our stay quickly became a memorable one. Howie’s Homestay offers a private stay with options for privately touring Chiang Mai or simply relaxing in the comfort of this peaceful slice of heaven.

Howie’s HomeStay provides an unforgettable experience. The exquisite environment, the impeccable services, and most of all, the delicious cuisines. Jerri, the beautiful wife of Howie and talented chief with her stylish and tasty fusion Thai cuisines satisfies picky taste buds. The only worris brought are that we’ll all have to go on diet after going home.

We were looking for tranquil, lush landscape and resort style ‘hotel’ to begin with, and it ended up with Howie Homestay. Upon arrival, prearranged local guide Addy has been waiting in airport. It took us 30+ mins to arrive by noon, we were awed by the landscape planning, architecture design and awesome -antiques decoration. While the sumptuous lunch was served after. Thanks to Jerri’s passionate in cooking, we enjoyed the fullest even we couldn’t finish some of them. (Private and exclusive to the max) Staying 4 days in Howard and Jerri’s paradise not only relaxing and rejuvenating; but also inspire my family on how passion in life, rich in detail, and trust your believes shape what you gonna be in future. Thank you Howard and Jerri. Take care until we meet again.

Howie and Jerri have the most gorgeous property we have ever seen. This is the kind of property that deserves to be featured on the cover of Architectural Digest along with at least a ten page spread inside. The quality of design, workmanship and overall attention to detail is beyond compare. We felt so privileged to be able to stay there for five glorious nights. Initially, we imagined feeling ill at ease as the only guests in such a large property. That was not the case at all. Howie always found the perfect level of making himself available but yet providing us with complete privacy during our stay. Howie would join us briefly during breakfast and dinner to answer any questions we might have and to confirm our plans for the upcoming days. We found his suggestions to be excellent and appreciated his willingness to find a way to make things happen. We were met at the Chiang Mai airport by Addy who along with a van and driver facilitated our various different activities while in Chiang Mai and continuing on to Chiang Rai and ultimately to the airport for our return to Bangkok. We had been told by a friend who had stayed there a year previous to us that it was worth staying there just to eat the amazing food. Therefore, we were anticipating good food but we could never have imagined the meals that Jerri prepared for us during our stay. Each night the table was laden with five scrumptious main course dishes. The quantity of food was staggering but more so was the quality of the dishes. We live in NYC and are accustomed to amazing meals but nothing compared to Jerri’s masterpieces. Her dishes included traditional thai dishes but always with her special signature twist. Our meals were worthy of a multiple Michelin star establishment. Any thoughts we had of not trying everything in front of us were discarded after our first bites. These meals were meant to be relished and lingered over.

After 4 wonderful but busy days in Bangkok, our (too-short!) time at Howie's Home Stay was amazing. From the stunning architecture and landscaping, to wonderful guides and activities, to Jerri's SPECTACULAR meals and welcoming, gracious spirit and interesting chats with Howie. We couldn't have asked for a better way to experience Chiang Mai!!
