Retro coastal clubhouse
DJ sessions, chilled spritzes, and a vibrant poolside crowd create a carefree, high-spirited seaside rhythm steps from the Gulf.
“The breezy brutalist-looking lobby spells a breath of (literal) fresh air in Hua Hin’s hotel scene.”
Where it shines
Remarkable
Mid-century Miami retro architecture pairs with curved concrete forms, yellow poolside loungers, and custom calligraphy tiles by Rostarr.
Notable

What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Also in Condé Nast Traveler and AFAR.
Still, for all its good looks, it’s by no means un-luxurious — the spa program, in particular, is elaborate and inventive…
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Set right on the main beach, the property is a quick stroll from Hua Hin night market and bustling local seafood stalls.
The rooms
Main building rooms feature rattan accents and private balconies, while standalone pool villas offer terrazzo bathrooms with disco balls dangling overhead.
The pool and gym
Bring a swimsuit.
Yellow parasols line the beachfront swimming pool, and the gym looks straight into a garden courtyard.
The spa
Treatment rooms look out on tropical gardens, offering traditional Thai herbal compress bodywork and a DIY mineral mud lounge.
Dogs stay too.
At the table
Praça serves Thai small plates in the lantern-lit beach garden, and Lido prepares wood-fired pizzas beside the pool.
This smart seafront resort draws on the brand’s Miami roots with midcentury-modern furniture, candy-striped umbrellas, and disco balls lighting the bathrooms.
How it began
Opened in 2021, the resort unfolds around a restored beachfront wooden heritage house, among the earliest residential homes along Hua Hin's coast.
