Sukantara Cascade Resort & Spa is a boutique resort that oozes peace, warmth and coziness. It was founded in 2004 by Khun Somporn Sugunasil, a former executive at one of the top two banks in Thailand. As a local from Chiang Mai, an innate appreciation of nature stayed with him from birth and where the resort now stands was formerly his private residence. On a quiet day after his retirement, while sipping on a glass of wine next to the waterfall, an idea came to him. “We have here surroundings that are amazing,” he thought. “Wouldn’t it be even better if we could share this with people from around the world?” Hence the seed was sown for what would become Sukantara Cascade Resort.
