Anantara Golden Triangle Elephant Camp & Resort

My husband and I spent two nights here on our honeymoon, and truly—this property is nothing short of magical. From the moment we arrived, greeted by the rhythmic drum ceremony and offered relaxing mini-massages at check-in (where else does that?!), we knew we were somewhere extraordinary. Our suite overlooked sweeping views of the countryside and the elephants, which made every moment feel surreal. We booked the Explorer Package, which included two activities each, and chose Walking With the Giants and a local market and longtail boat cultural tour. Walking alongside the elephants is an experience neither of us will ever forget—their calm presence, beauty, and the deep sense of connection was beyond anything we imagined. It’s also clear how well cared for they are, and how meaningful the camp’s mission is to both provide sanctuary for elephants in capacity while supporting the expansion of the wild elephant population. Our cultural excursion was just as memorable. We spent the afternoon with a wonderful local guide exploring Chiang Saen’s markets, temples, and historic sites before cruising up the Mekong River on a longtail boat—a peaceful, scenic end to a perfect day. We also enjoyed spa treatments during our stay, and they were among the best we’ve ever had. The therapists were incredibly skilled, and the whole experience left us so relaxed. The food was delicious across every restaurant, and every single team member we encountered went above and beyond. A special shoutout to Brooklyn, who brightened each interaction with kindness and ensured every detail of our stay felt perfect. We cannot recommend this hotel highly enough. If you find yourself in Northern Thailand, this is an unforgettable, once-in-a-lifetime place to stay.

A Peaceful Retreat with Heartfelt Hospitality and Gentle Giants 🐘 The location is a bit far from the main town, but that’s exactly what makes it so peaceful. Surrounded by lush greenery, it’s a perfect place to relax, retreat your mind, and reconnect with nature. My most memorable experience was walking with the giant elephants and learning more about each of their unique stories truly unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, every staff member was friendly, attentive, and welcoming. The welcome ritual was a beautiful and meaningful touch, something rare to find elsewhere. Special thanks to Khun Nancy and Khun Fon for their kindness and for taking such good care of us. At the restaurant, the staff were just as wonderful friendly, helpful, and always ready to recommend dishes or answer any questions. The food was delicious, full of authentic local flavors. Our room was fantastic, and the housekeeping team went above and beyond. The little elephant they prepared for us as a farewell gift was such a thoughtful gesture. Thank you to everyone for the exceptional service and for creating such a memorable stay. We would love to come back again if we have the chance. 😊🙏🏻🤍

Spent 3 nights of our Hooneymoon here on our 2 week stay in Thailand in April 2025 and it was by far our favourite. The staff are attentive but not overly so, the food is delicious and the hotel itself is stunning. The Elephant walk was a personal highlight and reccomend anybody to experience this for yourself. The work they do here for the safety of elephants is unmatched. We stayed during songkran celebrations and loved the fact the staff made an effort to include all in the celebrations and festivities. Would love to come back and visit at some point. Thanks again to all the staff at Anantara Golden Triangle Elephant Camp & Resort.
