This review recommends PEGGY 'S COVE RESORT

which offers a foreign atmosphere with a fishing village theme.

The resort stands out with its unique shape and eye-catching colors.

Located on Khao Kung Wiman Beach, it is surrounded by various tourist attractions.

Such as Nang Phaya Viewpoint, Hin Krong Viewpoint, and the pink rock field, where you can comfortably drive to watch the sunset.

♫ ♪ ♩

Our journey begins in the hotel lobby, a space designed to soothe the eyes with its high ceilings and panoramic ocean views.

Decorated in calming shades of blue and white, the lobby offers cozy seating areas, a gift shop, and a unique feature: a selection of colorful fisherman's outfits available for borrowing.

For photography enthusiasts like myself, this is a must-visit spot. Don't miss the opportunity to capture some memorable shots!

The resort's interior design is quite lush, emphasizing nature and decorations from the sea, such as boats, fish cages, and fishing nets.


This place offers numerous photogenic spots, ensuring an enjoyable photography experience.

The most impressive feature is the designated photo spots, complete with markings to guide visitors to the perfect pose. These popular angles ensure stunning photos, making it a must-visit for photography enthusiasts.


Beyond the lush greenery lies a sprawling swimming pool that meanders past each residence, each boasting its own unique color scheme.

Some villas grant direct access to the pool from their doors, a feature that elicits a pang of envy.


We continued exploring until we reached our room, a Deluxe room with two queen-sized beds.

There was a sitting area by the window, where a gentle breeze rustled the curtains.

It was the perfect setting for a rainy day.

We rolled around in bed, listening to music on the resort's speaker system. The sound quality was excellent, and we soon drifted off to sleep.



The bathroom is fully equipped.

"So clean and white, looks like we'll be taking a dip in the tub again tonight, huh? Haha."


Stepping outside the door, you'll find a sofa perfect for sipping coffee and soaking in the morning atmosphere.

It can get a bit hot during the day, as it's positioned directly in the sun.



In the evening, if you don't feel like going anywhere, there's a poolside bar called BAMBOO BAR.

Located by the front swimming pool, it serves both food and drinks (weather permitting, of course).

Alternatively, you can dine at the Lighthouse Bar & Grill, which offers both air-conditioned indoor seating and an open-air terrace with sea breezes. The menu features a wide variety of international dishes. Bon appétit!


Besides accommodation, there is also a coffee shop called COFFEE COVE.

The highlight is the lighthouse where you can climb up to enjoy the view from above. The red one in the picture is it : )


If you have time in the morning, you can drive to "Neen Nang Phaya Viewpoint" to watch the sunrise.

You can still come back for breakfast.

But we didn't wake up in time. 555

**This picture was taken in the afternoon, the sun was strong.

Chanthaburi has a lot to offer in terms of sightseeing and activities.

To truly experience everything, you might need a week!

If you prefer a more relaxed pace and want to stay at a resort while still capturing stunning photos for social media, this place is perfect for you.

We highly recommend it!
