Hua Hin is Thailand’s oldest beach town resort. The place is known for the King’s private residence, and attracts a lot of wealthier local Thai for their weekends away. The charm of Hua Hin is that it still retains its fishing village serenity, which is now side by side with the bustling center. Here are some fresh ideas when exploring this lively seaside town – just a 2,5 hours’ drive from Bangkok.

It provides more intimacy compared to the big hotel chains that cover the beach side here. The setting of this boutique hotel with 56 suites and villas is beautiful, right on the beach side of Hua Hin. This hotel is a little oasis, where you can find attention in every little detail.

Here you find two of our favorite family friendly stays in the south of Thailand. Different in budget and amenities but reaching these properties is an adventure and both offer great hospitality. Above all, both are sustainable, stylish and family-friendly.
“You will find the soul of kindness and hospitality here.” – quoted by our travelbee Linsey. This is one of the last undiscovered gems in Thailand. If you are looking for chilled out excitement for your next vacation, then a relaxed Thai adventure holiday on Koh Phayam may be the answer. It’s an idyllic and unspoiled island with great surfing, hiking and other adventures. The bungalows of this lovely eco lodge have a minimalist style but are really clean and comfortable nonetheless. Please go, before it’s too late.
