Shangri La hotel Chiang Mai - Why, well just look at the size. Then we have a jacuzzi where you can control the water temperature yourself. And of course, try the Shangri-La. Sunday brunch for a very reasonable prize and they will give you acces to their pool as well.

Veranda on the way to Samoeng. Mmm, the view

Dusit  Island hotel Chiang Rai - The pool at the Dusit resort on and island in The Kok river has a wonderful view over Mekok. Good size and with a bar.

The Nest - This mini resort in the city of stars, Chiang Dao gives great value for the money and an experience completely different from all the normal hotels, resorts, and boutique hotels. When you pay just around a 1000 baht per night you hardly expect all this service included but yes, The Nest mini resort also has a pool and with a stunning view.

Yes, and of course we have to mention The Home in Park swimming pool. This is our home, and to a certain extent our office.
