#ChangeYourBed | Anantaya Resort & Seafood: Your Complete Seaside Getaway

Hello, today Once-a-month #Change the bed I'm back in Pattaya again, but this time I'm a little further out of Pattaya. Today we are at Jomtien Beach, Na Chom Thian Subdistrict, Sattahip District, Chonburi Province.

We departed from Bangkok the day before to participate in the Bangsaen 21 Marathon. After the race, we traveled to the resort. The journey was not lengthy. From Bangsaen, we rode along Sukhumvit Road, passing Pattaya. Approaching the Chai Phruk Intersection, we turned towards Jomtien Beach. Following the beach for a short distance, we found the resort on our left.

Anantaya Resort and Seafood: A Seaside Escape

Nestled along the shores of Jomtien Beach, Anantaya Resort and Seafood offers a tranquil retreat for those seeking a seaside escape. This intimate resort boasts a prime location, just steps away from the sandy shores, accessible by a simple road crossing.

I have a friend who works at this resort, so I took the opportunity to stay here and review it. The overall design is a mix of wood and concrete, with a modern Thai style. It has a great atmosphere of a beachfront bungalow, and there's even a restaurant on site, so you don't have to go anywhere else. You can eat, play, and sleep all in one place, and park your car once and not have to move it.

The accommodation is divided into two sections: a two-story house for groups of 4-10 people and small wooden houses for 2 people. There is ample parking space, even for large vehicles like tour buses. As for me, my little red Honda CB500F almost had enough space to be its own showroom! Haha. Next time, I'll definitely bring the gang to enjoy the sea.

This time, we came with two people and stayed in the wooden house. Entering the wooden pavilion, it felt like a different atmosphere. There were shady green trees all around, contrasting with the blazing midday sun. We walked a short distance and arrived at the front of the house. The house had a small balcony with two chairs, perfect for lying down and enjoying the sea breeze in the evening. To be honest, the green and shady balcony looked inviting, but the Thai sun was too much to bear right now. Let's hurry into the room.

Upon entering the room, I was greeted by a bed with a mosquito net, evoking a nostalgic feeling of sleeping under a net in an old-fashioned house, even though there were no mosquitoes and the air conditioning was pleasantly cool. The room was well-equipped with amenities, including hot water, a hairdryer, and even a microwave, surpassing the offerings of many expensive hotels. I was particularly impressed by the swan-shaped towels (which I believe were intended for decoration rather than actual use).

The afternoon was getting late, so we decided to go out and find something to eat. We saw the sea, so we took a walk to take some pictures before we ate. It was just across the street, and we were at the beach. If we wanted to find something to eat, lying on a mat by the sea would be perfect. But we just wanted to find some food to order. We saved the stir-fried basil for a treat in the evening.

Another selling point of this resort is that it has its own restaurant. We had already planned to have dinner here, and we couldn't wait to order our food before it got dark. The restaurant is decorated in a rustic style, with thatched roofs covering the lights, creating a truly atmospheric setting.

We ordered a feast for dinner, driven by our ravenous appetites. The menu boasted steamed squid with lime, seafood in banana leaf parcels, crab curry, and sea bass with chili sauce. All I can say is that it was absolutely delicious, rivaling even the most renowned restaurants. Live music and a beachfront setting completed the idyllic experience. Without further ado, let the photos speak for themselves.

After finishing my dinner, it was already dark. With a full stomach and heavy eyelids, I felt exhausted after the marathon. I went to my room and rested comfortably.

This resort is a great option for those seeking a relaxing and convenient getaway. While it may not offer the same level of luxury and amenities as more expensive resorts, it provides everything guests need for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. The resort is self-contained, eliminating the need for guests to venture outside. It is ideal for families with young children who can enjoy the beach, as well as for adults seeking a peaceful seaside escape. Additionally, the resort is suitable for corporate retreats and team-building activities.
