This boutique hotel is a haven of tranquility located south of Hua Hin at the foot of Khao Takiab, from which a giant buddha looks eastwards across the Gulf of Thailand. It is a few steps from the sandy Takiab Beach and the centre of Hua Hin is only a 10-minute drive away. The resort is set amid quiet, lush gardens that open across a beachfront swimming pool directly onto the Gulf of Thailand. The resort complements the comfort of luxurious accommodation with the Thai tradition of friendly, yet unobtrusive service. A total of 18 luxurious rooms in 9 gated villas are spread among the trees of the lush and shady gardens. Facilities on offer to guests include a lobby area, a hotel safe, a café and a restaurant. Guests may also take advantage of room and laundry services (the former for an additional fee) and there is parking (charges apply) for those arriving by car. There are 2 Pool Villas which each include a balcony, a garden, and exclusive plunge pools which are fully enclosed for complete privacy. The Superior Pool Villa also provides a spacious living room for that extra home-away-from-home comfort. There are 3 Sea View units and 13 Garden View units, with a private terrace and a romantic ambiance offering views of the sunrise or the relaxing tropical garden. All units feature an en suite bathroom with a shower/bathtub, individually adjustable air conditioning, a TV, a VCD player, a stereo system and a minibar. Furthermore, a hairdryer, direct dial telephone, radio, Internet access, tea and coffee making facilities and a king-size or double bed are provided in all accommodation as standard. The units are also equipped with a safe. This resort features an open-air pool with a children's section, which guests may enjoy for an additional fee.
