The award shines light on the resort's excellence and reinforces its position as a custodian of luxury hospitality for more than three decades in Thailand
Yet another memorable milestone in the resort's illustrious journey, Four Seasons Resort Chiang Mai has been awarded #1 Resort in Thailand by Travel + Leisure World's Best Awards. The survey - open for readers to cast ballots for their favourite hotels, resorts, and more - makes T+L's World's Best Awards the most respected in the travel industry, helping to determine true hospitality excellence and assisting other travellers in understanding where they should go next.
As one of the world's most celebrated travel destinations, Thailand attracts millions of discerning travellers each year. Securing the title of #1 Resort in such a competitive landscape is a true testament to excellence, especially in a country renowned for its world-class hospitality.
Beaming with pride, Sean Mosher, General Manager of Four Seasons Resort Chiang Mai and Tented Camp Golden Triangle, shared his gratitude: "This recognition reflects the unwavering dedication of our team and the heartfelt connections we build with every guest. We are deeply grateful for the trust and support of those who voted for us." An inspiration to continue to strive for excellence, the resort's place as one of the world's best reflects an underlying sentiment - among guests, partners, and stakeholders.
Unadulterated Luxury
The resort promises the perfect blend of relaxation, culinary delights, and enriching activities, all within the picturesque setting of Mae Rim valley offering the ideal countryside retreat. "Our Villas and Residence Rentals are the perfect homes for families looking to vacation in Chiang Mai," feels Sean. "Get together with loved ones in our multi-bedroom residences, and make a connection in the most meaningful way when you stay with us."
Sustainable Footprint
Built around rice paddies, the resort prides itself on enhanced practices - cognizant of the birds and insects that help make this a healthy environment. "Sustainable gardening practices, with the help of our team of local farmers and gardeners, allow us to maintain an authenticity in keeping with the local climate and biodiversity," shares Anthony Tschudin, Resort Manager. By supporting the local community through employment and collaboration, the resort invests in the economic health of the region, and this is vital to sustainability and longevity. "Our relationship with the greater landscape we are part of, and the people who live within it is not new to us, and we are constantly aware of our role within the whole," reflects Sean.
Mindful Mindset
At the core of this resort's operation, mindfulness and wellbeing take centre stage as the resort experience unfolds. Whether it is the "live well" menus at KHAO by Four Seasons or NORTH by Four Seasons, the daily schedule of complimentary activities for adults and children, or the award-winning spa programming at Wara Cheewa Spa including therapies and holistic healing, there's a keen focus on the wellbeing of the mind, body and spirit. "By vacationing with us, we would like our guests to be able to experience a unique aspect of a balanced lifestyle that the Thai people are renowned for," smiles Sean. "An art that has been perfected over years of mindful practice that is best explained by our very own team of wellness experts."
