Maison Mystique, Khao Yai, Thailand

Even if you’ve been to Thailand a million times, we can bet you’ve never seen anything quite like this. Maison Mystique is a new boutique stay in the heart of Khao Yai, and it’s like a cinematic crossover between movies.

Think dreamy Wes Anderson symmetry, coloured hallways, and architecture that makes you feel like the main character in The Grand Budapest Hotel. Then step outside, and you’ll find a maze garden straight out of Bridgerton, complete with manicured hedges perfect for slow strolls and dramatic photo ops.

Good news: this chio escape is much closer than it looks. Maison Mystique sits in Khao Yai, just a 3-hour drive from Bangkok, which means you can hop on a short flight from Singapore and be checking in by afternoon.

Khao Yai itself is a charming retreat, best known for its sprawling National Park Reserve spanning over 2,000 sq km of forest and grassland. You’ll be surrounded by misty mountain air, thundering waterfalls, and wildlife sightings ranging from deer and gibbons to wild elephants and crocodiles.
