Maeraem is a small village unaffected by the modern influences. Some local customs are still practiced; such as a worship of the village guardians, the Yi Peng lantern festival etc.  Most of the villagers are farmers.  Just a step from our resort you can explore their rice fields and experience their way of life.

Although the resort enjoys hidden tranquilly, the tourist attractions of the Maerim district are not far away. Orchid Farms, Waterfalls, an Elephant Camp, Snake Farm, Monkey School, the Queen's Botanical Garden, Golf Course, Darabhirom temple and Darabhirom's Royal Residence can all be reached within 5-15 minutes by car or motorbike.

Besides the activities you can enjoy near the resort, we also offer a complimentary shuttle to the Chiangmai city twice a day. Chiangmai is a fascinating ancient city dating from 1296 which has over 300 Buddhist temples, some dating back to the 13th or 14th century.  In the centre of town is the fascinating night market with a frenetic atmosphere and handicrafts from all over the northern provinces on offer. You will encounter the wonderful traditional dress worn by hill tribe people selling their wares as you wander around the stalls.

If you want to escape from the hustle and bustle of the city you can spend time, relaxing by our swimming pool, gazing at the views of the national park. This gives a sense of tranquility very different from the crowded beaches of the south.

Adjacent to the Lobby, overlooking to the swimming pool and the national park, Baan Canna Restaurant serves home cooked breakfast, lunch and dinner. The menu will be changed daily to reflect availability of fresh local produce and will include a selection of local and international dishes.

The resort is located in a village on the banks of the Maeraem River, in an area that was previously a paddy field. Hence the name of the resort - Canna - literally means "the ridges in the field".
