If you’re not up-to-date on your latest far flung getaways–we weren’t, either–the Anantara Gold Triangle resort is perched on a ridge in northern Thailand overlooking the border with Myanmar and Laos and is among the finest Chiang Rai hotels. In other words, it’s an incredible off-the-grid experience with spectacular views, amenities, concierge services and, most importantly, the opportunity to spend your days and nights observing Thailand’s majestic elephants in their natural habitats from the comfort of your very own air-conditioned bubble. Yes, you read that correctly. using Precontraint Serge Ferrari technology, Anantra has created spacious bedroom and living space bubbles complete with king bed, en-suite bathroom, 24-hour in-room dining and a fully-stocked mini bar that you can enjoy while still gazing upon some of the most majestic creatures that have ever walked the Earth. The domes are available starting at $585/night for two people, but we suggest you book quickly because reservations are already scarce.
