Whether it’s an unexpected trunk hug from a two tonne elephant friend in Chiang Rai, to a group selfie on a girls’ night out at a rooftop bar in Bangkok or capturing the perfect beach sunset pic with someone special in Phuket – fun holiday snaps make great memories last a lifetime. At Anantara and Avani you can share your #SanookSnap moments and win great travel prizes around Thailand so you can take even more!
Loving your room with a three-country view in the Golden Triangle? #SanookSnap it! Partying with friends on a rooftop bar? #SanookSnap it! Enjoying a decadent floating breakfast in your beachside pool villa? #SanookSnap it! From the jungles up north, to the bright lights of Bangkok, right down to the lush Southern islands, the more you snap, post and hashtag #SanookSnap and tag, the more you’ll have the opportunity to win great holidays with Anantara and Avani Hotels and Resorts right across Thailand.
A play on the Thai word “sanook” meaning to have a good time, the #SanookSnap photo contest campaign offers pure, awe-inspiring escapism in the palm of your hand, serving as travel inspiration for everyone looking to escape the stresses of 2020.
Its interactive format means guests are active participants, rather than side-line spectators. For the duration of the campaign that will run until the end of the year, travellers are encouraged to share holiday snaps from travel “beauty spots” they discover not just at Anantara and Avani properties but at any location in Thailand, for a chance to win luxury stays and other prizes including a Scomadi Scooter. Whether it’s a scene-stealing swimming pool or a signature cake, if it can be enjoyed in the company of one’s loved ones, it is definitely “sanook”.
Those following the campaign on social media will discover Thailand through the eyes of an intrepid tourist, giving armchair travellers an insight into a destination that conventional marketing campaigns cannot. Rather than sharing carefully curated glossy imagery, Anantara and Avani hotels aim to tell authentic stories of real guests: a young couple escaping the city to luxuriate in a jungle spa; a multigenerational family surveying Bangkok’s panorama from a sky-scraping infinity pool; or friends reunited for a weekend retreat on one of the country’s many pristine islands. Real moments of joy, family time and bliss.
To take part in the campaign for a chance to win luxury stays, participants simply add the #SanookSnap hashtag, tag @anantara_hotels or @avani_hotels and geotag the Thailand location in their Instagram posts from across the country, whether they focus on the destination, experiences, design or food. Each week, we’ll give away luxurious hotel stays from stunning Anantara and Avani properties across Thailand to the most fabulous submissions.
The fun doesn’t stop here though, as entrants can post a photo and tag the property handle during their stay at an Anantara hotel in Thailand for a chance to win Anantara’s grand prize, an all-inclusive 3-night escape for two people at Anantara Golden Triangle Elephant Camp & Resort including:
- An unforgettable one-night Jungle Bubble experience
- Return flights and airport transfers
- Elephant experiences and excursions
- Exquisite all-inclusive dining
- 90-minute massages for two, and more
Take your snaps and tag any Avani hotel or resort and you will be in with a chance of winning an incredible two-night escape for two to Koh Samui PLUS a stylish Scomadi scooter and Cove luggage. Full prize details:
- A Scomadi British-designed premium retro scooter
- Two nights in a stylish pool villa at Avani+ Samui Resort

- A trip for two to nearby Koh Matsum island
