Travel Guide: 1702 Panorama Sea View Top Floor Hua Hin

Prachuap Khiri Khan (盼武里府), Thailand

Introduction

Nestled along the quiet western stretch of Hua Hin’s coastline in Prachuap Khiri Khan, 1702- Panorama Sea View Top Floor is a hidden gem for travelers seeking a relaxed, home-like escape away from Hua Hin’s busier central tourist strip. Perched on the building’s top floor with two bedrooms and two bathrooms, this spacious self-catering apartment is ideal for small families, friend groups, or couples looking for extra privacy, with unobstructed panoramic views that set it apart from smaller city accommodations.

Local Attractions

Three standout nearby attractions make this location unbeatable. First, Khao Sam Roi Yot National Park, just a 40-minute drive south, is Thailand’s first coastal national park, famous for its limestone cliffs, hidden coves, and the iconic Phraya Nakhon Cave with its golden pavilion illuminated by natural sunlight. Hike or boat through mangrove forests to spot wild monkeys and kingfishers along the way. Second, Hua Hin Beach, 15 minutes north, is a soft, sandy stretch perfect for sunset walks and casual seafood dinners at beachside shacks, far less crowded than Thailand’s more popular resort island beaches. Third, Maruekhathaiyawan Palace, a 20-minute drive away, is a charming teakwood seaside palace built for King Rama VI, with open-air pavilions that blend traditional Thai and European design, surrounded by lush tropical gardens right on the coast.

Travel Tips

Book well in advance during the November to February high season, when cool temperatures draw visitors to Hua Hin’s coast. The property is entirely non-smoking, so plan accordingly if you smoke. The shared pool and tennis court are open to all guests, so bring athletic wear if you plan to play. The surrounding Ban Bo Fai area is quiet and residential, so rent a car (arranged directly through the property) for easy access to attractions and grocery stores. Remember to pack reef-safe sunscreen for day trips to Khao Sam Roi Yot, and bring insect repellent for evening evenings on the terrace, though the property provides mosquito nets for extra comfort.
