Baan Sammi is the name of the property that includes two enterprises, house rentals (Baan Sammi Nature Retreat — บ้านแซมมี เนเจอร์รีทรีต), and a bamboo garden (Bambusetum Baan Sammi — สวนไผ่บ้านแซมมี). Since October 2023, Google Maps shows these two locations for Baan Sammi as follows:


The pin named "Baan Sammi Nature Retreat" locates the main entrance gate of the Baan Sammi property, and the other pin locates the Bambusetum (สวนไผ่บ้านแซมมี) at the end of the private dead-end driveway of Baan Sammi

To search Baan Sammi on Google Maps, you can type (or copy + paste) the following phrases into the Google Maps search box:
  • "Baan Sammi" or "Baan Sammi Nature Retreat": Google displays Baan Sammi Nature Retreat with a pin at zoom level 17 (greatly enlarged map) and with the correct address.
  • "สวนไผ่บ้านแซมมี" or "Bambusetum Baan Sammi": Google displays Bambusetum Baan Sammi with a pin at zoom level 17 (greatly enlarged map).
Adding the city name or country name into the search box e.g., "Chiang Mai", or "Thailand", is unnecessary. Please pay attention to the correct spelling. Any deviation thereof e.g., Baansammi, Ban Sammi, Ban Sammy, or Baan Sammy, leads to no or an incorrect search result. However, if you merely type "Baan Sammi" into the search box, the two red pins for Nature Retreat and Bambusetum will appear on the map at the same time.

Alternatively, you can find the location of Baan Sammi on Google Maps if you enter (copy + paste) the coordinates "18.83520, 99.10765" into the Google Maps search box.

History: A listing on Google Maps was initially only possible for the Bambusetum and only later for the house rental business. The reason was Google's internal policies (see notes on Google Maps and Grab Maps), which later changed. This may be the reason why, at least in the past, older names of Baan Sammi were additionally displayed in the result box.

Other maps: There are many other maps based on Google Maps (e.g., Waze). On these maps, you can search for "Baan Sammi" or "Bambusetum Baan Sammi" and find one of both names displayed on these maps.

Navigation: Usually, Google provides not only a single route to the destination but also optional ones. To navigate from the city of Chiang Mai ("Mueang Chiang Mai District"), or from the airport ("Chiang Mai International Airport"), the best route (with regard to orientation and travel time) is the one in which you choose Highway #118 when approaching Baan Sammi. To easily find this route on Google Maps, you can split the route to Baan Sammi into 2 parts: As a virtual first destination, enter "Horizon" (Village & Resort, at Highway #118) on your device. Then enter "Baan Sammi" as your final destination.
As far as is known, entering more than 1 destination in Google Maps is only possible with a PC, up to a maximum of 9 consecutive destinations. However, only 1 destination can be entered using the Google Maps app on an Android device.
