A stay at this jungle all-inclusive, the highest-scoring property in this year's Gold List, starts when a driver meets you at the airport "with cold water and moist lemongrass-scented towels—what an introduction." Guests stay in "tents that are a bit hard to call tents": Each has Internet access, a bar, and decor inspired by nineteenth-century adventure travel, hence the mosquito netting and hammered-copper bathtubs. Nong Yao, where tables are enlivened by local stoneware and cutlery, serves regional cuisine that "makes you weep with happiness." Guests can feed and ride the resort's elephants. "It doesn't get any better than this."
