Anne-Cristine Procope
Resort Manager, Anantara Golden Triangle
Elephant Camp & Resort
By Laura Gibbs
In the northeast of Thailand lies the infamous Golden Triangle
area. Once an opium producing and trading area, today the
Golden Triangle is a tranquil region, brimming over with nature,
temples and hill tribes. Sitting at the very edge of Thailand
is the Anantara Golden Triangle Elephant Camp & Resort,
a property with 61 rooms and 160 acres, some of which has
been given over to the Golden
Triangle Asian Elephant
Foundation and houses around
20 rescued elephants.
The Anantara brand currently
has over 35 properties across
three continents and is owned
by Minor Hotel s, a hospitality
leader in Southeast Asia. Known
for its outstanding service,
classic rooms and opulent spas,
the Anantara Golden Triangle
is one of the iconic properties
in Minor’s varied portfolio.
Heading up the team at the
Golden Triangle property is
resort manager Anne-Christine
Procope. Before joining
Anantara, Anne-Christine
spent over a decade in various
management roles throughout
Africa and the Middle East. In
2014 she moved to Anantara
Medjumbe Island Resort
in Mozambique as Resort
Manager, and in 2016 moved
continent and hemisphere to
the Anantara Golden Triangle.
