Anantara Golden Triangle Elephant Camp & Resort - Chiang Rai

5-star resort in Chiang Rai with an on-site elephant camp and Jungle Bubble overnight stays

Elephant Camp & Experiences

Anantara Golden Triangle Elephant Camp & Resort has an on-site elephant camp with around 20 elephants, each cared for by a personal mahout and professional vets. Guests can take part in the Walking with Giants program, a 1.5-hour walk alongside the elephants and a veterinarian who explains their care and history. The Jungle Bubble overnight experience places guests inside a transparent dome where elephants roam and feed just feet away at night.

Dining & Culinary Experiences

The resort offers 2 dining options: Sala Mae Nam serves an international breakfast buffet, and Baan Dahlia specializes in Italian dishes. The Spice Spoons cooking class starts with a market tour and a local breakfast, then moves to a private kitchen where guests cook their own meals under the guidance of the head chef. Private dining arrangements can be made, and the Treetops Restaurant Experience lifts guests into the trees for a sunset dinner with views of the surrounding jungle.

Wellness & Activities

The resort's spa offers treatments inspired by indigenous traditions, including the signature massage and an abdominal fire treatment. Guests have access to a fitness center, yoga classes, a steam room, sauna, and an outdoor infinity pool with views of the valley. Daily activities include cycling, longtail boat rides on the Mekong River, and guided tours of the Golden Triangle region.
