An unforgettable journey through Thailand with Anantara's exclusive resorts

22 January 2024

Thailand feels like many different destinations in one, from the spectacular temples and street food of the capital Bangkok to jungle hideaways and gorgeous beach resorts. A triple-centre holiday means you can experience different holiday types in three unmissable parts of the ‘land of smiles’, in some of its most sensational places to stay – Anantara’s world-renowned hotels, resorts, and spas.

An unforgettable journey through Thailand with Anantara's exclusive resorts

For a city stay… Anantara Riverside Bangkok Resort

As the name suggests, Anantara’s Bangkok outpost sits on the Chao Phraya River, and its private shuttle boat connects you seamlessly to the rest of the city, which you can delve into with the help of the hotel’s Streetwise and Klong Gurus with their exclusive behind-the-scenes visits.

But you’ll want to stay put, too, as this is a fantastic urban wellbeing haven hidden away in tranquil gardens. Rejuvenate both body and spirit in the Anantara Spa and BDMS Wellness Retreat, where indulgence blends with cutting-edge medical wellness and proactive preventative care, and treatments fuse ancient healing traditions with modern techniques.

There’s also blissful riverside dining on offer in the resort’s several restaurants, including Benihana with its theatrical teppanyaki, Riverside Terrace with its global buffet fare and dazzling Thai cultural performances, and Spice & Barley with its Pan-Asian menu by an award-winning chef.

For a jungle adventure… Anantara Golden Triangle Elephant Camp & Resort

In gorgeously landscaped gardens within a 160-acre bamboo forest on a ridge in northern Thailand, overlooking the border with Myanmar and Laos, this mountain sanctuary immerses you in jungle lushness within easy reach of the cultural riches of Chiang Saen.

You can explore the surroundings in an array of different ways, from cruising down the Mekong in the morning mist to whizzing through the countryside spotting the ruins of lost cities in a sidecar. Take in incense-filled Buddhist temples or book the dusk-to-dawn Jungle Bubble overnight experience and savour dinner and breakfast amidst the elephants.

The spa here is in the jungle too, and its healing treatments inspired by local wisdom are enhanced by this immersion in nature. This is an intimate resort, with just 40 rooms, 15 suites, and six family suites, and dining both in its restaurants and in private settings. Choose from a terraced rice paddy, a sala lit by the sunset, and a boat pier overlooking the Ruak River.

For a beach break… Anantara Lawana Koh Samui Resort

In a glorious location on buzzing Chaweng Beach, close to great restaurants and nightlife, Anantara Lawana tells the story of Thailand’s second-largest island through its gorgeous Sino-Thai design. Its Pool Suites resemble old-style shophouses, while the Pool Villas with their fishing lamps and maritime blues are clustered around the lagoon like a peaceful fishing village.

There’s laidback seaside dining at Tree Tops Restaurant in a 120-year-old jungle canopy, with the loveliest of island views, and in The Crab Shack with its superb seafood. There’s also a beachside infinity pool and a spa nestled in tropical greenery, including a double Thai massage room and a Shirodhara (Ayurvedic oil-drip) room.
