Four Seasons Tented Camp
Hidden at the northernmost tip of Thailand, where natural beauty provides a breathtaking backdrop, a whole new meaning is given to the term glamping. The Four Seasons Tented Camp is a gem of an accommodation, built in safari style, offering the pinnacle of exceptional service and refined gastronomic experiences.
The Four Seasons Tented Camp is surrounded by an oasis of rolling green bamboo hills, with charming streams flowing between them. Spread across this vast landscape are ultra-luxurious tents, designed with comfort on every possible front, yet traditional details take center stage. Amidst this magical ambiance, you feel one with nature—a captivating experience that invites you to explore your own version of relaxation.
A stay at the Four Seasons Tented Camp is a journey in itself. The arrival pavilion, located in the heart of the Golden Triangle, is reached after a traditional longboat ride along a tributary of the mighty Mekong River, where you are welcomed by three gong sounds: symbols of happiness, health, and prosperity. It is a warm and welcoming reception, embraced by the intimate atmosphere of this hidden paradise.
For an unforgettable experience where every detail is taken care of and you are in complete harmony with nature, you need not look any further.

Impression
Your Stay
The stunning tents are designed by the renowned interior designer Bill Bensley; extravagantly furnished, fully integrated into the magnificent surroundings, and in harmony with the local culture and history. The centrally located king-size bed and the freestanding bathtub are the real eye-catchers of the entire setup, but you will quickly notice all the authentic and carefully selected details. As soon as you step onto the outdoor deck, you will find a magical spot to enjoy the scenery, with a view that will keep your eyes captivated.
Experiences
Helicopter Transfer from Chiang Mai
The resort is about a four-hour drive from Chiang Mai, or a 70-minute drive from Chiang Rai, followed by a 10-minute boat ride. For the ultimate luxury experience, it is also possible to book a private helicopter transfer.
Excursion to Laos
Four Seasons Tented Camp is just a stone's throw from the Mekong River, offering the opportunity to add a second extraordinary destination to your journey: Laos! Book a private cruise to the fascinating capital, Luang Prabang.
Tea Plantations and Bamboo Forests
The northern tip of Thailand offers a surprising kaleidoscope of landscapes, and Four Seasons Tented Camp provides a range of activities to explore them. Walk through swaying (and cracking!) bamboo forests, go on a trek to spectacular tea and pineapple plantations, or learn more about Chinese rural culture on the Thai side of the border. Closer to the resort, you can also learn from local fishermen and get acquainted with their way of life in the villages along the rivers.
Hotel Information
Accommodation
The 15 luxurious tents at the Four Seasons Tented Camp are spread across the hilly landscape to provide the ultimate sense of privacy and tranquility. A narrow stone path lined with bamboo leads to the various communal facilities, and the tents are named after local hill tribes, flora, and fauna.
Although each tent offers the same amenities, they are all uniquely decorated. For example, there is the Golden Triangle Tent, the Bamboo Tent, and the Mekong Tent. They feature a king-size bed, a standalone handcrafted bathtub, a beautiful outdoor shower, and a spacious terrace with a comfortable seating area. Some tents also offer a wooden Jacuzzi on the deck.
If you are traveling with a larger group, you might also consider staying at the Explorer’s Lodge. The lodge has two bedrooms, a spacious deck, and a stunning pool. The only risk here is that you may never want to leave the lodge.
Swimming pool
Cool off in the swimming pool overlooking the Ruak River while the sounds of the surrounding nature play in the background.
Child-friendly
Children under the age of 10 are not allowed in the hotel.
Restaurants
A stay at the Four Seasons Tented Camp includes three excellent meals per day and drinks, including house wines and spirits. In the evenings, you can enjoy aperitifs and delightful wine and cheese tastings. The restaurant Nong Yao is located in the central pavilion, where every other day a Western menu is alternated with regional specialties. The adjacent wine cellar offers a very impressive collection of wines, and you will be treated to a beautiful selection during the tasting in the evening. The cozy Burma Bar is an open-air lounge where guests love to relax at sunset.
Wellness and Spa
The spa is designed to be in harmony with the surrounding jungle and offers two spacious open-air pavilions. Traditional therapies and treatments are available, utilizing ingredients sourced from the local nature. The signature Ruak Bamboo Experience is highly recommended. After a foot bath with kaffir lime, local herbal oils and smooth bamboo sticks are used during a full-body massage focused on deeply rooted muscle tension. The result is complete relaxation.
Sustainability
The resort is one of the founders of the Golden Triangle Elephant Foundation, primarily established to provide a safe, healthy, and as natural as possible environment for rescued elephants. Under the careful watch of the mahouts who are responsible for their daily care and guidance, you can get to know these gentle giants and participate in their daily programs.
