Review: Four Seasons Tented Camp Golden Triangle (Thailand)

Review Four Seasons Tented Camp Golden Triangle

Wednesday newsletters always feature a hotel or flight review.

I recently enjoyed a phenomenal holiday in Singapore & Thailand. You can read my trip reports here:


Today (March 18, 2020): Review of Four Seasons Tented Camp Golden Triangle (Thailand).

Hidden within exotic bamboo jungles overlooking Myanmar and Laos, Four Seasons Tented Camp Golden Triangle offers tailor-made, all-inclusive experiences close to some of Thailand’s oldest civilizations. The luxury resort comprises 15 beautifully appointed tents with leather-and-hardwood bush chairs, paddle fans, and a hardwood desk; some of them feature a custom-made wooden hot tub on the outdoor deck. At night, sundowners are offered at the Burma Bar, then afterwards, guests enjoy unforgettable dining experiences in a safari camp atmosphere at the Nong Yao Restaurant. A stay at the lodge includes a comprehensive list of activities, such as walking with the resort’s resident elephants, or absorbing the tropical tranquility with an open-air massage among the treetops.

Four Seasons Tented Camp Golden Triangle also features in my top 10 lists of the world’s most expensive hotels, the best luxury hotels in Thailand, and the world’s best glamping sites.

PROS & THINGS I LIKE

CONS & THINGS TO KNOW

Four Seasons Tented Camp Golden Triangle is one of the world’s most exclusive getaways. The tents are stunning, the setting is beautiful, and interacting with the elephants is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Yet, you need to know the following when considering a stay here:


MY VERDICT

TIPS FOR FUTURE GUESTS & SAVE MONEY

BEST TIME TO VISIT

The weather in Golden Triangle is significantly cooler than the lower elevations farther south in Thailand. The best time to visit is from November to April, when days are sunny and balmy and nights are cool. Slash-and-burn agriculture can cause haze in the air during February and March. The heat and (heavy) rains come in May and last until October.


HOW TO GET THERE

It’s a 90 minute ride from Chiang Rai Airport to Golden Triangle, followed by a 10 min scenic boat ride. Click here for a list of airlines that offer direct flights to Chiang Rai.
