Comfort Without Compromise
Camp Mae Thorani is hosted at S Mountain View Resort — a purpose-designed, fully landscaped camping facility set against the mountain backdrop of Ban Rai. The accommodation supports a genuine outdoor experience with practical attention to comfort and cleanliness.
Premium Twin-Bed Student Tents
Every tent has two high-quality beds with fresh bedding, so each student shares with another student. Tents are positioned on level, manicured lawns with direct mountain views — waking up here feels like nothing else.
Separate Male & Female Bathrooms
Our purpose-built bathroom facilities are fully sanitised, maintained throughout the day, and completely separate for boys and girls. With hot showers, polished marble finishes, and private cubicles, the standard is far beyond what you'd expect at a camp.
Healthy, Chef-Prepared Meals
S Mountain View's kitchen team takes care of all food and drink throughout your students' stay. Every meal is freshly prepared by an on-site chef — balanced, nutritious, and genuinely delicious. No camp-food compromise here.
Planned Camp Routines
Camp routines and supervision arrangements are reviewed with school organisers before booking.
Shared Camp Facilities
Shared facilities and staff roles are reviewed with school organisers as part of programme planning.
Fully Landscaped Grounds
The resort is a beautifully maintained facility — not a field. Manicured lawns, lit pathways, clear signage, and thoughtfully designed spaces make navigating the camp easy, safe, and genuinely pleasant for students of all ages.
Leadership DomeSuites
Teachers, chaperones, and trip coordinators stay in private geodesic dome suites — elevated on higher ground with a clear, unobstructed sightline over the entire student camp below. You are always close, always able to see, and always comfortable.
The dome interiors are finished to a hotel standard — a proper bed, marble flooring, climate control, and private amenities. Because the people responsible for student safety deserve to be rested and at their best.
The Forest
Through Their Eyes
One Journey.
The Forest, Fully Alive.
Explorer includes all meals, premium twin-bed tent accommodation at S Mountain View Resort, bilingual ranger guides, safety staff, transport coordination, and a student field journal. Price per student.
