Ping Pool Villa 1

Out in Mae Rim, roughly ten kilometres north of the Old City, Ping Pool Villa 1 is one half of a small pair of villas sharing a name and a neighbourhood — this one carrying a strong 5-star rating and free Wi-Fi as its confirmed baseline. ลุงคำ mentions the pairing upfront because it matters: book the wrong one by mistake and you'll end up at the same address but not necessarily the same villa, so it's worth double-checking which listing you've actually reserved. It's a small administrative detail, but one that saves a genuinely frustrating mix-up on arrival, especially after a longer drive out into Mae Rim.

Getting to Ping Pool Villa 1 Chiang Mai

Ping Pool Villa 1 sits in Mae Rim, 9.7 km from the centre of the Old City and 12.0 km from Chiang Mai International Airport (CNX) — a genuine drive rather than a short hop, putting the villa comfortably outside the city's tourist core and into Mae Rim's quieter, more rural stretch. Free Wi-Fi is confirmed throughout, so staying connected isn't a concern even this far out. Mae Rim itself sits along the road that eventually climbs toward Mae Sa's hills, a genuinely different stretch of the province from the tight lanes of the Old City.

Rooms & What to Expect

Detailed room-by-room data — bed counts, square footage, specific views — isn't confirmed for this property in the records used to write this guide. What's on file instead is the essentials: a 5-star rating and confirmed Wi-Fi. Anyone weighing this villa against others in the area should check the current listing directly for the specifics of room size and bed configuration before booking. ลุงคำ would rather say plainly what isn't confirmed than guess at it and get it wrong — better a short section here than a promise the property doesn't actually make.

Amenities & Facilities

The villa's own name signals its centrepiece — a pool built into the property — though beyond that and confirmed Wi-Fi, a fuller facilities list isn't on file here. ลุงคำ's advice for a villa this far outside the city: confirm the specifics directly with the property, especially anything beyond the pool and Wi-Fi that might matter to your stay. A quick call or message ahead of booking is a small effort for the peace of mind it buys, particularly for a villa this far from the city centre.

What's Nearby — Temples, Markets & Local Life

Mae Rim is genuinely rural Chiang Mai — open land, small local roads, and a scattering of villas and homestays rather than a dense run of named attractions. Specific landmark data isn't confirmed for the immediate area around Ping Pool Villa 1, but the character of the district is clear from its neighbours: a handful of nearby stays within a couple of kilometres, described below, give a real sense of the kind of quiet, spread-out neighbourhood this is — the kind of area where villas sit well apart from one another rather than stacked one against the next.

Dining

No on-site dining is confirmed at Ping Pool Villa 1. Given the rural setting well outside the city's food-stall density, guests are better off planning meals ahead — either self-catering or building a trip into town — rather than expecting options within easy walking distance.

Other Hotels Nearby

Right at the same address, effectively 0.0 km away, sits Ping Pool Villa 2 — presumably its sister property — rated 5 stars with a 9.7 out of 10 review score, the strongest number of any property mentioned in this guide. A little further, at 0.8 km, is the Donkaew minimalist townhouse, a 4-star property scoring 9.2 out of 10. And at 1.5 km sits Naturetalk Homestay, also 4-star, at 9 out of 10 — together, a small cluster of well-regarded stays scattered through this part of Mae Rim.

Guest Reviews

Ping Pool Villa 1 carries a review score of 8.7 out of 10 from six reviews — a solid result, and one that sits just below its neighbour, Ping Pool Villa 2, at 9.7. A detailed category breakdown isn't confirmed in the source data for this specific listing, but the headline score alone holds up well against the other stays nearby, and six genuine reviews landing at 8.7 is a solid, dependable signal even without a full breakdown to lean on.

Good to Know

Free Wi-Fi is confirmed throughout the property. No on-site dining is confirmed, and detailed room and facility data should be checked directly with the property given the limits of what's on file here — a genuine gap worth being upfront about rather than filling in with guesswork.

For travellers who've already decided Mae Rim's quiet countryside is worth the extra distance from the city, and who are comfortable confirming the finer details directly before booking, Ping Pool Villa 1 is a reasonable pick. ลุงคำ's honest advice: call ahead, confirm the details that matter to you, and don't confuse it with its sister villa next door.
