Local Attractions

Three must-visit nearby attractions put Seapine’s prime location on display:

• Khao Takiap (Monkey Mountain): Just 3 kilometers from the hotel, this iconic limestone hill is home to a hilltop Buddhist temple with sweeping panoramic views of the Gulf of Thailand and the surrounding coastline. Wander past wild macaques (keep a safe distance!) and visit the giant standing Buddha before descending to the quiet fishing village at the base for fresh, inexpensive grilled seafood.
• Hua Hin Golf Courses: Seapine is less than 3 kilometers from several world-class 18-hole courses, including the popular Royal Hua Hin Golf Course, Thailand’s oldest public golf course. Green fees and bookings can be arranged through the hotel for an additional charge.
• Hua Hin Night Market: A 15-minute drive from the property, this bustling evening market is the best place to sample local street food, pick up handmade souvenirs, and experience classic Thai coastal nightlife.

Travel Tips

The property is fully accessible by car, with free on-site parking for guests driving from Bangkok (a 2.5-hour trip north). If traveling with pets, be sure to notify the hotel at least 48 hours in advance to confirm pet policies and any extra fees. Book seaside-facing rooms in advance to guarantee the gulf views that make this retreat special. English and Thai are spoken at the front desk, so international travelers will have no trouble checking in or asking for local recommendations. For an extra treat, book the hotel’s daily breakfast to start your day of exploring with fresh local fruit and made-to-order Thai dishes.
