Welcome to the March edition of the EXO Thailand product and destination update! As we wrap up a busy season, we want to keep you informed on all the happenings across our country.
Products: We are excited to share a new cooking experience in the capital and a new luxury beach club experience in the South.
Hotels: This month we are highlighting four hotels. We have a fabulous coastal property located near a stunning national park where wild elephants roam and a swish budget option on the Bangkok riverside. Other features include an old favourite in Samui boasting a fantastic offer in this month’s hotel promotions file and the last one is a a unique option near the northern Laos border.
Upcoming holiday reminder: As the weather heats up here in the Land of Smiles, it’s time to cool off and celebrate! Songkran, the Thai new year and water festival, is just around the corner and the EXO team will be taking some time off to celebrate. We will be closed 8 April and again 12-16 April, returning to work on Wednesday 17 April.

New & featured hotels
Solid, affordable riverside option
Situated on Chaophraya riverbank in Khlong San, one of Bangkok’s oldest yet most up-and-coming districts, The Quarter Chaophraya offers an urban sanctuary, designed for a relaxing, comfortable stay.
A few steps away from BTS Gold Line, Khlong San station, the hotel is only one stop from ICONSIAM, and directly linked to BTS Green Line, allowing easy access to all major parts of the city. With a lovely franchised riverside restaurant along with great family facilities, Quarter Chao Praya is a solid 3-star riverside option.
The perfect base to explore nature and the sea
Tolani Resort Kui Buri is a serene resort located on virgin beach front land, an hour south of Hua Hin and only 45-minutes from Kui Buri National Park, the best wild elephant watching spot in Thailand.
Each of the resort’s 23 villas have a private terrace and garden, while most also come with a private pool. The area is rural and peaceful, with small fishing villages being the only nearby communities.
Although the main activity at Tolani Kui Buri is relaxation, the hotel does offer a number of activities, including yoga and mountain bikes for exploring neighbouring villages.
Luxury island getaway
Nestled on the quiet, pristine northern end of Chaweng Beach, Anantara Lawana Samui Resort & Spa lies just steps away from the clear blue sea and offers an exceptional range of luxury accommodation.
Guests can relax in spacious rooms and suites inspired by the island’s original Chinese merchant settlers, or unwind in the infinity-edged pool that overlooks the bay.
Dinner is served in a choice of locations, including the spectacular TreeTops restaurant, up in the jungle canopy.
A living, breathing history
Located in Chiang Saen, near to the Laos border and Golden Triangle, Athita reflects the history and traditions of it’s surroundings. The building was built from over 90% Teak Wood blended with brick, constructed using traditional techniques and design elements from the region.
Athita has 9 rooms, a pool, cafe and restaurant, all located a short stroll from the Mekong River and a 700 year old ancient temple. The hotel embraces true Thai tradition as a family-owned business which prioritises an authentic experience for all guests.
