Book Makok hotels

I stayed for 2 nights in the small bungalow with the little private pool. It was absolutely wonderful. This was at the end of my first solo travel to Thailand and it was a great way to end my trip. The property was very peaceful and quiet, the elephants are just amazing, and the food was delicious. It's an hour away from Chaing Mai old town and I used the hotel transport, check in was super easy as I had already paid when I booked. All of the activities cost extra and you pay at check-out, I felt they were all very comparably priced compared to other tours in the area. I did the elephant feed & walk and the rafting. Both were wonderful! The stuff was very friendly & helpful, the food was very good and the view was beautiful. My room was clean & had an a/c unit, it was actually cool enough I never turned it on, the bed was very firm but the pillows and blankets were soft and comfy. Over all it was the highlight of my trip and I plan to return with my kids in the future.

Nice and quiet hotel, but overpriced

Overall it’s a nice place. Especially the design and the atmosphere. Very beautiful outdoors. I would call it five-ish stars hotel. The cleanliness of the sheets could to better (see photos of the mattress Skirt or the napkin in the room) but I can’t say it bothered me enough to ask to replace it. Had to come out and sort the check out when ordering room service (even though I notified I have credit for the room) - was a bit annoying but everything sorted. Biggest disadvantage is that you are pretty far out from the city - so that would cost time and money on rides. And of course- you are mainly going to order food in the hotel area which is always annoying. Even though it is pretty far and quieter than in town - you still hear noises like cars and people (stuff) walking and talking - at least in the room I had facing the pool side. They have a golf course just 1 min walk away so I guess that’s good if you play golf. The staff are very nice and respectful. Breakfast is ok, not great (the cheese plater needs to be bigger). Again overall it’s a good stay - and the difference between a good choice and could do better elsewhere - really depends what the price for the room. I think 110 usd (including tax) per night is a bit borderline.

Beautiful property. Great to sit out on the deck and listen to nature. Staff is excellent and friendly. Highly recommend

Beautiful garden. Nice restaurant onsite. A bit off the main road.

Very beautiful and comfortable suite with personal pool. This has a small kitchen but has no plates, bowls, eating or cooking utensils? Should at least have bottle opener/cork screw for romatic drinks. This is good for secluded retreat. Not good area if you want to walk and shop and eat and drink. Nowhere to walk to. Last morning water too low to take shower??? I think isolated event. Not normal. Very nice place to stay for seclusion and romance.
