Hello everyone, today I'm sharing with you some photos of my trip to Hua Hin in early 2016. It was a trip that I took on January 23-24, but I've only just had the chance to properly write about it. This trip came about because we really wanted to take the family on a vacation, so we decided to go sightseeing and relax in Hua Hin.
On this trip, there were four of us: me, my wife, our daughter, and a friend from work. We set off at 7 am in our own car and arrived at our first destination, The Venesia, a little over 2 hours later. We were really excited to be there because none of us had ever been since it opened. Our little daughter had been begging to ride the train, so we had to make it happen.
The day we visited was a Saturday, and it wasn't very crowded. Around noon, foreign tourists and student groups started to arrive, but it wasn't too crowded. We could walk around comfortably. As for the entrance fee, I think they sell it as a package now. There are packages a, b, c, and d, starting at 180 baht. We chose the cheapest one, which was 180 baht. It included a lot of free things, such as a train ride, entrance to the Art Gallery, entrance to the European Garden, free photo shoots, and entrance to the zoo. However, we didn't use everything. Haha, I kind of regret it. We only got to ride the train and enter the Art Gallery.
The sky is quite clear today, perfect for taking pictures. I got many beautiful pictures.
After walking outside in the heat for a while, I decided to take a break and enjoy the cool air conditioning at the Art Gallery 3D Museum. It was spacious and cool inside, perfect for escaping the heat for a long time. However, I didn't get to stay for long before I had to leave. My daughter was scared of the sharks! 555
Take a walk around and you'll find many beautiful photo spots.
We left Venice to find lunch to eat. Opened Google Map to find this restaurant. There were many recommendations, so I had to try it. Bor Fai Sea Restaurant is located in the air force base. Enter the alley opposite The Venetian. It's not far, there are signs along the way, it's not difficult to find. When I arrived, someone came to welcome me. At first, I was going to sit at a table outside, but the staff said that the beach pavilion was empty. Would you like to sit? Let's go. The white pavilion seats are right on the beach. Just eating the atmosphere and the view in front of you is enough. I ordered five dishes: a large plate of crab fried rice, stir-fried vegetables, mixed seafood tom yum soup, stir-fried sea bass, crab omelet, and drinks. All of this for 860 baht. The price is average, but the taste is delicious. Anyway, I invite you to try it.
After a satisfying meal, we headed straight to the resort. The entrance to the resort is quite narrow and secluded, so I wouldn't recommend walking there alone. Upon arriving at the lobby, we were warmly welcomed with a glass of passionfruit tea each (I would have liked to ask for more, but I didn't want to be rude ^^). The tea was fragrant, sweet, and slightly tart, and it instantly refreshed us. Our room was a suite. As we opened the door, we saw a bed and a sofa. There was another door leading to another room with a bed and a bathtub. I was secretly impressed.
The surrounding atmosphere is natural, peaceful, and shady, making it ideal for a truly relaxing getaway.
Opening the door to the outside, there is a balcony with a set of chairs for sitting and enjoying the view, sipping coffee, watching airplanes. It's the best. This picture is a view from the balcony behind the room we stayed in.
The resort's swimming pool is right on the beach. You can walk out of the pool and onto the beach. However, the sun is still strong at this time, so we just took a walk along the beach. We were not disappointed. The resort's beach is clean and peaceful, as there are staff members who take care of the cleanliness of the beach. Walking barefoot on the soft sand is the ultimate way to relax by the sea.
After a satisfying walk, it was time to relax in the pool. Judging from the look on my colleague's face, I could tell he was enjoying it immensely.
After playing in the water, it's time to soak up the atmosphere of Hua Hin at night. We chose to go to the Cicada Market, the only place that has both food and drinks, and a relaxed walk after dinner. There is a wide variety of food to choose from, so choose whatever you like. There is also a market selling handmade goods that you can browse at your leisure. It's perfect for families with young children like us.
Our stomachs are full, and our eyelids are getting heavy. For tonight, we've decided to head back to the resort and relax. We'd rather sit and enjoy the cool breeze on the balcony behind our room. Here are some photos of the resort's atmosphere at night.
The next day, we woke up early to catch the sunrise. And we were not disappointed. The sun slowly rose above the horizon, giving us a breathtaking view. We sat on the balcony, sipping fresh coffee and listening to the gentle waves crashing against the shore, waiting for our little one to wake up so we could continue our journey.
The army marches on its stomach. Before checking out, we need to refuel.
The resort's breakfast is a buffet with a wide variety of food to choose from, including American, salad, bakery, muesli yogurt, Thai food, rice, sticky rice, fruit juice, fresh milk, and more. The taste is good. And then the messy work came for the little one.
After a satisfying meal, we decided to take a stroll along the beach to aid digestion. The resort's beach remained as peaceful as ever, with only the staff clearing tables, chairs, and debris.
We stood there for a while, enjoying the cool breeze, before it was time to say goodbye. If the opportunity arises, we will definitely return to this haven for a truly relaxing getaway. Heaven Resort, a haven for those seeking true relaxation.
I AM POPEYE
