Wake up to views of three different countries and watch elephants amble past your room at this safari-style lodge in the wild jungles of northern Thailand’s mountainous Golden Triangle region. Sitting at the tippy-top of Thailand, just a stone’s throw from Laos and Myanmar, here, epic encounters with wildlife go hand-in-hand with rice paddy yoga, soaks in valley-view hot tubs, and dining among the treetops.
Sitting high on a forested ridge to make the most of the panoramic vista, the main lodge boasts 61 polished rooms and suites with decor inspired both by Lanna culture and colonial-era exploration. Balconies take in sweeping garden or three-country panoramas, with well-appointed but uncluttered interiors including deep soaking tubs in the bathroom. But even the most top-tier suite pales in comparison next to a night in the Jungle Bubbles, where private chefs and butlers cater an unforgettable evening of watching elephants walk by your clear-walled dome and falling asleep under a canopy of stars.
Elephant encounters are an Anantara Golden Triangle highlight. Go on hikes with the center’s resident pachyderms, have a bush-style picnic as these gentle giants stroll nearby, and go for sidecar drives and boat rides through the sanctuary.
Anantara’s laundry list of services and amenities is as enticing as its proximity to wildlife. Enter a bar straight out of old world Africa for sophisticated drinks at the Elephant Bar and Opium Terrace, taste the Golden Triangle’s blended three-country culinary heritage at Samsarn, and even dine on a platform high up in the jungle canopy. Add in an eye-catching infinity pool, gym and wellness facilities for Muay Thai boxing, and a tantalizing spa, and you’ll never want to leave.
