LUXWT Prime Review

By Emily Eisenberg-@Eisenbee

Nestled within the rolling hillside outside of Chiang Mai sits the Four Seasons Resort is seamlessly integrated into the stunning natural landscape. Upon arrival, we watched the sun sink over the picturesque Suthep mountain range while we were were greeted with welcome drinks, cleansing hand towels, and wreaths of Jasmine flowers.  

The meticulously designed hotel has the utmost attention to nature with stunning landscaping and views overlooking the working rice fields, mountainous landscapes, and tropical greenery. Guests can enjoy these views from their private villas or the verandas that cascade down the mountainside leading to two infinity pools. The aesthetics are truly remarkable. This is a place to appeal to all senses, as you can hear the birds chirping while smelling the flowery aroma from the expansive gardens, making this hotel more like an idyllic sanctuary than a resort.  

Beyond the beautiful aesthetics, our palates were also pleased. We were able to enjoy an Italian dinner at the terrace restaurant, and had an authentic Thai in-room dining dinner on our private villa pavilion while sitting on our swinging chair overlooking the gorgeous grounds. The food was mouth-wateringly delicious and the attentive service was impeccable.

We found it difficult to remove ourselves from the pool during the day, since the two infinity pools were some of the nicest, and most refreshing swimming experiences I have had experienced to date.  However, we were glad we found time to participate in some of the on-site activities. Our favorite was the hands on learning of how to grow rice. The hotel provided a very educational experience where we were able to wear traditional rice-planting outfits. We even planted and picked our own rice!  While it was enjoyable it also made us appreciate the rice that we had on our plates each day. 

We loved our stay at the Four Seasons in Chiang Mai, and can’t wait to get back!

SPA

Step into the Spa at Four Seasons Resort Chiang Mai and enter a luxurious temple of harmony for body, mind and spirit – an indulgent sanctuary created exclusively for your pleasure and well-being. 

Our spa treatments are divided according to Thailand's social harmony.

The concept of social harmony is very important – from consideration for others to maintaining one’s own equilibrium. Traditionally, the Thai social system is arranged into six distinct groups: Servers, Farmers, Craftsmen, Noblemen, Royalty and Monks. Each group is recognised for its own unique beauty, wisdom and humbleness, and offers many gifts to the wider society.

DESTINATION

Chiang Mai is in the heart of an area once known as the Lanna Kingdom, meaning “the land of a million rice fields.” While its vibrant blend of cultures gives the area a distinctive charm, the landscape is still covered with vivid green rice fields. Chiang Mai is often fondly called the Rose of the North for its beauty and spirit.
