Farmer Pop and his wife, Kuenza, live with their family on a beautiful working farm on the outskirts of Paro, Bhutan. The hot stone bath, named Kuenza Hot Stone Bath after Farmer Pop’s wife, offers visitors a genuine glimpse into Bhutanese life.

The farm is a serene and authentic space where Farmer Pop grows seasonal crops, and every element of the hot stone bath reflects their dedication to preserving Bhutanese culture. Unlike touristy locations crowded with busloads of visitors, Kuenza Hot Stone Bath is a family-run business that offers a peaceful, intimate setting—perfect for those seeking a real connection with Bhutan’s heritage. With the hot stone bath conveniently located near Paro, Bhutan’s main airport, it’s an ideal stop for travelers looking for an authentic hot stone bath experience while supporting a genuine mom-and-pop business.
