Local Attractions

Three standout nearby attractions make this location unbeatable:

• Hua Hin Beach: Just a 10-minute drive from the hotel, this soft, golden 4-kilometer stretch is one of Thailand’s most gentle family-friendly beaches. Unlike the crowded party beaches of southern Thailand, Hua Hin Beach is perfect for long dawn strolls, sunset horseback rides along the shore, or fresh grilled seafood from casual beach shacks.
• Wat Khao Takiab: A 15-minute walk from the hotel, this cliffside Buddhist temple sits atop a 100-meter headland overlooking the Gulf of Thailand. Climb the steps to the hilltop for panoramic ocean and coastline views, and wander the grounds to meet the friendly wild monkeys that call the area home (just keep your snacks secured).
• Hua Hin Night Market: A 12-minute drive away, this iconic evening market is the best place to sample local street food, pick up handcrafted souvenirs, and browse cheap clothing and accessories. Don’t leave without trying grilled squid, mango sticky rice, or fresh coconut ice cream from the street vendors that line the lanes.

Travel Tips

Book your stay with flexible check-in times in advance, especially during the November to February high season when Hua Hin sees the most visitors. If you don’t have a car, book a local songthaew (shared pickup truck taxi) from the main road for just 50 THB per person to reach the beach or town center. Pack lightweight, breathable clothing for Thailand’s warm climate, and bring bug spray for evenings spent on your private terrace overlooking the garden. For day trips, the hotel’s simple kitchenette makes it easy to pack picnic lunches before heading out to explore the coast.
