Hotel information
This world-renowned elephant sanctuary invites guests to explore the rugged beauty of the region while learning about these magnificent animals.
The onsite elephant camp, designed to look like a traditional Mahout Village allows guests to help feed and bathe the elephants, learn about their behaviour and walk through the jungle at their side.
The resort, considered to be one of Thailand's best, offers just 63 amazing hotel rooms, each with breathtaking views extending across all three countries. The style is traditional Thai and guests can expect teak floors, Thai silk soft furnishings and bright and breezy rooms. The resort’s amenities include the Elephant Camp, a large infinity pool overlooking the Mekong Valley, a fully-equipped fitness centre and an indulgent spa.
The cuisine here is a contemporary mix of flavours from the region. Sala Mae Nam offers traditional Thai in an alfresco setting; Baan Dhalia introduces Italian and Mediterranean flavours with an extensive wine menu and the Elephant Bar is a great place to meet at the end of the day for snacks and sundowners.
