Traveling with kids in Xishuangbanna! Experience the rainforest hotel that's even better than Thailand

Xishuangbanna is definitely the top choice for family trips 🌴

This time, we stayed at the dreamy rainforest hotel - Anantara

More wild and fun than Thailand! Open the window in the morning to meet a peacock spreading its feathers!

Enjoy floating afternoon tea in the infinity pool with a full view of the Wild Elephant Valley rainforest, while the kids cheer watching gibbons swinging between trees! This is not just a hotel, but a natural adventure base!

Five days full of family fun

Experience Dai ethnic costumes at the night market, taste tropical fruits, watch fireflies at night, walk with elephants, explore the rainforest creek, learn about tropical plants, and have a water-splashing party...
