Location – Located less than 3 hours away from Bangkok, it is an ideal getaway for families, friends, and couples looking to escape from the hustle and bustle of city life and unwind. Thematically, the structures offer a castle-like experience which is sure to enchant the most discerning travelers. Pictures do not do justice to this place as the cool night breeze and scent of wet grass are not reflected in mere static photos. The flaura and fauna of the rich biodiversity of Khao Yai National Park is best experienced for those residing here.

Covid-19 Test – Before arriving in the resort premises, we had to do a quick and painless complimentary Covid-test provided. The test was done in the car itself with the windows rolled down. There professional nurses are accommodating and this touch really provided a sense of safety while moving about in the resort. Knowing that everyone had been tested and were Covid-free allowed us to enjoy the resort more freely.

Service - Attentive to every detail. From the check-in we noticed that the hotel has implemented the 'new normal' standards and provide minimal touch points at check-in and social distancing. Smooth, efficient and friendly from the porters, bellboys and reception staff. It's heartwarming to see smiling staff who are eager to assist you in anyway. Upon check-in, we were escorted to our room by a buggy. We couldn't not fault a single staff, from the bell boy to the waitresses at the restaurants to the management.

Accommodations – Unique Renaissance and Baroque-style rooms and decor adds to the Tuscan-feel. We stayed in their Executive Deluxe with picturesque views of the Khao Yai valleys from a large balcony. Large king-sized bed with the perfect level of softness that ensured a sound and restful sleep. The room fixtures and furnishings are excellent and you can see their attention to detail. Their large flat-screen smart TV made it easy for us to connect our smart devices to enjoy some Netflix. You probably won’t be doing much of streaming as the Nature show is on 24/7 as you step on to the balcony (Tip: bring your mosquito repellent). Ensuite bathrooms has a separate shower and bathtub. Water pressure and heat were great which is very important for anyone staying at an Accor standard property to say the least.

Wifi - Fast, stable and reliable throughout the resort make this a viable destination to work away from the cities hustle and bustle. Perhaps a good option for a staycation which this quick escape always on the cards.

Breakfast in room - Enjoyed breakfast served to the room. We had a mix of both American and Continental options available. Crispy bacon, scrambled eggs, sausages, etc. Special mention: if you request for crispy bacon, they make them perfectly thin and crispy. We looked forward to breakfast in the mornings in the balcony while overlooking the enchanting mountainous landscape.

Weather – the weather was good. During the day we enjoyed the sun with short afternoon shower which only adds to the luscious surroundings. At night things got a bit cooler which is always great. In the winter months, a light jacket and shawls maybe recommended.

Flavors Restaurant - This international restaurant offers all-day dining options with indoor and outdoor seating options available. We enjoyed unobstructed mountain views along-side tasty local and international flavors. They even have an on-site organic garden where they use ingredients from farm to table. Generally, there dishes were pact with flavor and we especially enjoyed their seafood Chinese-style flat noodle dish.

Facilities – The main swimming pool is beautifully designed and has a both indoor and outdoor area. Due to the current Covid-19 climate, we were unable to experience the wellness programs offered at Panacee Wellness Khao Yai. This is there on-site spa experience which I assume would be been wonderful. For young families and children, there is an outdoor farm with all your favorite local friends including rabbits, pigs, horses, hens and more.

The grounds – Immerse yourself in this luxurious sanctuary with all guest rooms overlooking sweeping fairways on the 18-hold golfcourse and serene European gardens.

We would to thank the entire team for making this a truly memorable stay.More
