Whether you're a family, a honeymooning backpacker couple or a solo traveller, this resort makes everyone smile. Above Mae Nam Sok, at the foot of stunning limestone mountains draped in misty jungle, Khao Sok's only top-end tented camp offers rootsy Serengeti-style luxury. It's real glamping: the luxury tents have wood furnishings, full, big bathrooms, skylights and hammocks on porches.
All-inclusive prices cover meals, guided hikes and canoe trips downriver for a night at its elephant camp, where 12 lovely elephants (rescued from other camps where they were forced to carry tourists around) are treated kindly. You get to feed, bathe and spend quality time with them. It's a special experience. Another option is a night at its floating Rainforest Camp. Reservations only.
