Below is every retirement community in Chiang Mai I'd put on a serious shortlist. For broader framing on retiring here, see the Retire in Chiang Mai guide and the main Thailand Retirement Guide. For the full Thailand-wide directory and the explainer on independent vs assisted vs nursing care, see Best Retirement Communities in Thailand.

About Bangkok John

Bangkok John

Bangkok John was started in 2020 when I posted my first hotel review. The site now publishes regularly updated guides to Bangkok, Phuket, Chiang Mai, Koh Samui, Krabi, Hua Hin, and all of Thailand.

I've lived in Canada, Portugal, Spain, Russia, Indonesia, the Philippines, and Thailand, and I've traveled to more than 40 countries.

I'm a Marriott Bonvoy Platinum Elite member and an Emirates Skywards Gold member, so I lean toward Marriott properties when the choice is close. I pay for my own rooms.
