Local Attractions

Three must-visit attractions are all within a 10-minute drive of the hotel:

• Khao Takiab (Monkey Mountain): A 10-minute walk from the property, this iconic limestone hill is home to a hilltop Buddhist temple, wild macaques, and panoramic views of the Hua Hin coastline. Climb the shaded steps to the top for unbeatable sunset photos over the Gulf of Thailand.
• Hua Hin Floating Market: A 15-minute drive away, this charming market offers traditional Thai street food, handcrafted souvenirs, and boat rides through mangrove-lined canals. Sample mango sticky rice from a floating vendor and pick up handmade silk textiles for souvenirs.
• Black Mountain Water Park: Just 10 km from the hotel, this family-friendly water park features twisting slides, a lazy river, and a dedicated kids’ play area, perfect for cooling off on hot Hua Hin afternoons.

Travel Tips

The property is self-catering, so stock up on groceries and snacks at the nearby Big C Extra Hua Hin before checking in to save time. Book high-floor units well in advance for unobstructed ocean and mountain views, and note that the fitness center requires an extra entry fee. Renting a scooter or car through the hotel’s on-site rental service makes exploring Khao Takiab and central Hua Hin easy, as the property is a 15-minute drive from Hua Hin’s city center. Lastly, don’t forget to bring reef-safe sunscreen for days on the hotel’s quiet private beach, which is far less crowded than Hua Hin’s main public shore.
