Did you hear that? That sounded like a ROAR! Could it be that after 250 million years, dinosaurs are making a comeback, and in Thailand of all places!
With soaring mountains, tangled jungles, and island hideaways galore, it’s the perfect prehistoric playground. No wonder the dinos are eyeing Thailand for their grand return.
Or maybe it’s not Mother Nature but movie magic calling them back. Word is, a certain Hollywood blockbuster (you know the one with all the teeth and running) which will launch soon was filmed in Thailand’s South. But don’t be surprised if a few T-Rex tracks show up North too!
From the gentle towering Diplodocus to the fierce Velociraptor, the mighty T-Rex to the three-horned Triceratops and spiky Stegosaurus, these creatures don’t exactly stay in one place for long.
Here are some unique Airbnb stays in Thailand where (if you’re lucky), you just might catch a glimpse of one. From jungle peaks in the north to turquoise beaches in the south, you could be treading where dinosaurs roamed. Keep your eyes peeled… and maybe don’t go hiking alone.
Glass Cabin with Private Pool, Krabi
Surrounded by greenery and with a mountain background, this gorgeous glass cabin offers a visual feast of Krabi’s little-explored nature. A private dipping pool and terrace with BBQ grill makes it the perfect place to reconnect with nature and your travel companion. And as Krabi is the first place the dinosaurs are expected to arrive, be alert for the herbivorous Stegosaurus – they’re just gonna love Krabi’s flora!
Wilderness House Above a Waterfall, Chiang Mai
Designed to blend into nature, this ideal slow-life getaway is in a remote location in Thailand’s northern Chiang Mai province and literally hangs over a waterfall. Guests can enjoy the dramatic scenery from their cabin but remember to keep an eye out for any primeval visitors – Triceratops are known to cool off in streams and the long neck of a Diplodocus may appear next to you above the waterfall – the vegetation here is tasty!
Layan Sea View Villa, Phuket
On the Thai island of Phuket, this beautiful modern villa overlooks the Andaman Sea and has panoramic views from its hillside location. Spacious and surrounded by greenery, the private pool and deck make for a spectacular vantage point to see any Jurassic visitors arriving on the nearby beach – you do know T-Rex can swim, right?!
Khaoyai Kirimaya Atta Residence, Nakhon Ratchasima
Known for its abundance of nature and home to Thailand’s oldest national park, this contemporary villa in Thailand’s Nakhon Ratchasima province offers an ideal luxury break from the city for a small group of friends or family. Overlooking a lake and with plentiful nature and nutrients, the outdoor decking and floor-to-ceiling glass doors make this stay an ideal spot to view any dinosaurs migrating north.
