③ Treehouse in Nature
Mae Chan Treehouse with a swimming pool is a treehouse in Chiang Rai. Situated high up in a tree, this treehouse allows guests to stay in a truly authentic setting. You can climb up to the treehouse using stairs; the room is a cabin.
The room has a bed, and the balcony has a hammock. The bed is a makeshift bed made of wood, so it’s not a comfortable facility. You can use the bathroom on the first floor, and you can use the separately prepared kitchen and dining area on the first floor. Although the treehouse is inconvenient compared to ordinary accommodations, it’s impressive that you can spend a special day.
The view from the treehouse at night is breathtaking. As it’s in pristine nature, you can also see countless stars. At night, you can hear the sound of nature and see the stars scattered in the sky. You can use the outdoor swimming pool as an amenity to the treehouse.
The minimum booking requirement is for two nights, with a room rate of approximately 26 US dollars per night. You can reserve Mae Chan Treehouse with a swimming pool through Airbnb.
Guests who stayed here left reviews such as “A very cool accommodation with nature,” “It was a good experience. I had an unforgettable day”, “Peaceful and beautiful nature, a place where you can hear lots of stars and the sound of crickets at night,” “Hidden gem of Chiang Rai”. If you want to enjoy nature in Chiang Rai fully, we recommend experiencing something special at the treehouse.
