Baan Tai Had Resort is in Amphawa (Samut Songkhram), a canal town in central Thailand where wooden houses line the waterways, and the pace is slower than in the big cities. It is a good choice for those who want to see old Thai river life rather than a busy resort strip. Life here follows the water, with houses, temples and markets all within a few kilometres of one another, and boats moving between them.

Wat Chong Lom is a pagoda 550 m from the resort, and King Bhumibol Adulyadej Park is also close by. Maeklong Railway Market, 1.8 km away, sets its stalls along the railway tracks, which are cleared when the train comes through. Amphawa Floating Market, 3.3 km away, is known for its food sellers on boats along the canal.

A day out can take in the railway market, the floating market and the parks nearby, and the canals are a good way to see the town from the water. Tours can be arranged for guests who want to go further afield, and the resort's garden and pools make a quiet place to rest between visits. The canals and old wooden houses make the town a pleasant place to walk around.
