Sela Chiangmai

Fourteen rooms and suites, each one done in creamy silk and antique wood, with rare forest birds showing up uninvited to breakfast in the garden. This small resort sits in the Chiang Mai countryside, ten minutes from Obkhan National Park, and leans into the quiet on purpose. The shaded pool anchors the property; the library offers a more solitary kind of afternoon. Windows restaurant handles northern Thai for lunch and dinner.
