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.

My stay at Fish Tail Lodge was nothing short of magical. The location is breathtaking, sitting right on a lake with stunning views of the majestic Annapurna Range. The service from the staff was exceptional and made me feel welcome throughout my stay. However, the dining options could use some enhancement, as the menu was somewhat limited. Overall, the experience was both peaceful and rejuvenating, making it a perfect retreat.
