Located at 33/33 Petchkasem Road, 77110 Hua Hin, Thailand, this oceanfront resort stretches along a pristine private beach and boasts two outdoor pools: a stunning infinity-edge saltwater heated landscape pool for adults, and a free dedicated children’s pool for little ones to splash safely.

On-site activities range from cooking classes and live music to themed dinners, and the paid kids’ club offers indoor and outdoor play areas plus supervised activities to keep children entertained. Multilingual staff speak English, Chinese, Thai, French, and German, and complimentary private parking and 24-hour front desk service add extra convenience.

Nearby Attractions

Three standout local attractions are all within a 15-minute drive of the resort:

• Hua Hin Railway Station: One of Thailand’s most photographed landmarks, this beautifully preserved 1920s wooden station features a iconic royal pavilion and colonial-era architecture that feels like a step back into Siam’s golden age. It’s a quick 5-minute drive from the resort, and entry is free.
• Hua Hin Night Market: Just 3 kilometers away, this bustling market is the best place to sample local street food like grilled seafood and mango sticky rice, pick up handcrafted souvenirs, and browse handmade clothing and accessories after a day at the beach.
• Khao Takiab (Chopstick Mountain): A 10-minute drive south, this coastal hill features a panoramic viewpoint overlooking the Gulf of Thailand, a hilltop Buddhist temple, and friendly wild macaques, plus a quieter stretch of public beach perfect for a stroll.

Travel Tips

Book a sea-view room in advance to guarantee the resort’s famous ocean sunrises, and note that some premium balconies incur a small extra fee. The resort offers paid airport transfers from Bangkok’s Suvarnabhumi and Don Mueang Airports, which is far more convenient than renting a car for first-time visitors. If traveling with children, take advantage of the resort’s paid babysitting services to book a quiet romantic dinner at the beachfront restaurant. Always carry a bottle of sunscreen and a hat for days exploring local attractions—Hua Hin’s tropical sun is strong year-round. For day trips to nearby attractions, the resort’s concierge can arrange private drivers at competitive rates.
