Anantara Golden Triangle Elephant Camp & Resort has unveiled its newest accommodation option, the Mekong Explorer Tent, offering panoramic views of Northern Thailand’s landscapes, renowned for their beauty.

Located just 4 km from the iconic Golden Triangle, the Mekong Explorer Tent sits where the borders of Thailand, Laos, and Myanmar converge. The tent, nestled within a 160-acre bamboo forest, provides sweeping views of the jungle, the mighty Mekong River, and the Golden Triangle, as well as sightings of the 20 rescued elephants of the Golden Triangle Asian Elephant Foundation roaming below.

“From birdwatching in the 160-acre bamboo forest to breakfast in the treetops with the Canopy dining experience, every moment at Anantara Golden Triangle is extraordinary,” a statement said. “The resort also offers a truly sustainable experience. From the complete elimination of single-use plastic to a reliance on solar power, the resort is also home to its own farm, complete with herb and vegetable gardens, grey Oyster mushroom farm, bee hives, and free-range chickens.”

This two-bedroom luxury retreat combines timeless elegance with thoughtful design, featuring leather, wood, and Jim Thompson fabrics. The handcrafted furniture and locally sourced amenities immerse guests in the region’s culture, with touches like sustainable teas from Sawanabondin and chocolates from Kad Kakao in Northern Thailand. Each spacious bedroom features oversized king-size beds and en-suite bathrooms, while outside, two private terraces are home to a 5m x 3m infinity pool and an outdoor bathtub for a tranquil soak.

Guests will receive an “Explorer’s Arrival” via traditional longtail boat, a Sky Bike adventure, access to the Hall of Opium Museum, a fully stocked minibar, full-board gourmet dining, and each night’s stay comes with a choice of activities, including the Walking with Giants elephant experience, a Spice Spoons cooking class, or a 60-minute spa treatment.

A stay at The Mekong Explorer Tent starts from AU$3,800 per night.
