Anantara’s Mekong Explorer Tent: A Wild Retreat in Thailand’s Golden Triangle
March 26, 2025- Travel, Anantara Mekong Explorer Tent, Thailand’s Golden Triangle

Time to plan your summer escape. This year, trade the usual beach getaway for something extraordinary—a luxury tented retreat in Thailand’s Golden Triangle. The Mekong Explorer Tent, the latest addition to Anantara Golden Triangle Elephant Camp & Resort, redefines glamping with a five-star twist.
A Sanctuary Above the Mekong
Perched on a hilltop, this exclusive tent offers breathtaking views of the Mekong River, dense jungle, and roaming elephants. Wake up to misty sunrises over Thailand, Laos, and Myanmar, then unwind in your private infinity pool as the jungle hums around you. This is nature, but with every imaginable comfort.
A Retreat Wrapped in Thai Elegance
Step inside, and luxury meets tradition. Two spacious 52m² bedrooms blend leather, wood, and handwoven Jim Thompson fabrics for a warm ambiance. Locally sourced amenities—like organic Sawanabondin teas, handcrafted Kad Kakao chocolates, and buttery elephant-shaped cookies—add a charming touch.
Each bedroom features a plush king-size bed and a private bathroom. Outside, two private terraces invite you to soak in a freestanding bathtub or a 5m x 3m infinity pool, all while gazing at the unspoiled wilderness.
Beyond the Tent: Exclusive Adventures
Arrive in style aboard a traditional longtail boat, then embark on a thrilling Sky Bike ride above the jungle canopy. Dine on gourmet, all-inclusive cuisine, sip unlimited non-alcoholic beverages, and enjoy access to the Hall of Opium Museum for a deeper dive into the region’s history.
Anantara Golden Triangle is a sanctuary for 20 rescued elephants. Every stay directly supports ethical tourism and conservation efforts, ensuring these gentle giants thrive in their natural habitat.
