Hotel Pantai di Cha Am

Beautiful small resort just seconds away from the beach! Theres also a nice pool in the center. For food there are some good seafood restaurants just a few min walk along the beach or you can call a car to take you more to the city area which is about 15-20 min. Huge shout out to the staff as they went above and beyond, made our first trip to Thailand feel extra special and loved:)

Stayed at The Palayana Hua Hin and enjoyed a restful, laid-back stay. We booked the 2-bedroom suite for our family of 4 adults and 2 young children—it was very spacious and came with a large sitting area, which worked well for us. The resort’s setting stands out, with beautifully maintained gardens, a tranquil vibe, and direct beach access. Breakfast had a decent variety, and the staff were warm and helpful throughout. A few areas could be improved: some in-room fixtures are a bit dated, and soundproofing isn’t the best as we could hear people along the walkway. The bathroom flooring is also quite slippery—non-slip mats would be a useful addition for safety. Overall, a comfortable and relaxing stay. Highly recommended.

Great atmosphere, a great place to spend a couple of nights for a couple since it creates a feeling of being special. The heart shaped tree is the special touch, really great for pictures. The restaurant is also excellent with both western and Thai cuisine.

“Don’t judge the book by its cover.” This quote can explain everything here at the hotel in a GREEN FLAG alert! :) First look might be obsolete of non-modern. Gradually was fascinated by overall experiences: wide room with great durability and well-prepared amenities. Breakfast buffet line was MVP! Pinned this place for possible next trips for sure!

The resort itself is really stunning, lovely gardens and pools, nice beach, the room was comfortable but could need updating but was clean. The breakfast had a lot of choices. The letdowns for us were, many times we went to get towels by the pool, they were all gone and I eventually complained about this and was told someone would get back to me, they never did. The biggest inconvenience was they had an Indian wedding on for 3 days and basically, this took over just about the whole resort with many areas closed to accommodate this event, we can understand 1 day maybe but this went on and on, a 3 day event, the music, so loud, the screeching sounds, it was just too much, most of the day and night until late, we chose this resort to relax and unwind but it did really interfere with our stay, we would go back but not if these events took place again while staying. The lady who looked after our room was absolutely lovely and works so hard, her name was Phatcharaporn. The management here need to think of their other guests and not just the events they hold or they are going to lose customers, they gave us a very small credit toward some food or drink but honestly, it was a slap in the face, you can do better guys, next time when people book, let them know immediately if there is an event on, so they can make other arrangements elsewhere. Sorry but this really left a bad feeling for us and I know we were not the only ones, talking with some other guests

Pros: Family room is squeaky clean and bed including extra bed are so comfortable. The room smells nice. Water pressure is good but temperature oscillates between warm and cold. Reception is very efficient  on check in and check out. They are well- trained! Location is the reason why we came here twice because it was right on the beach, surrounded  by various restaurants, street food and a convenient store. Location  is very convenient with parking.  Fair: Breakfast in quality, quantity and variety. Some(4)  ants from the wall came on the pillow and bit my neck and face.  Cons: Facility extremely limited; 2 elevators which are old and slow. The area where we waited for the elevators on the lower floors and lobby smelled like sewage water at times. Pools were small and water was not clear.

This is our favorite place to go to with our kids in Hua Hin, we've always had a pretty good experiene regardless of the room we'are booking. The staff is well trained to pay attention to your needs and are motivated and friendly. The Kids always love playing on the inflatable bouncing islands though some years they are better maintained than others. Regardless the kids large water fountain/bubble is always popular and not too hot in the afternoon as it's in shade of trees and building. Food prices are a little high within the hotel. The breakfast is very nice and offers a great variety for all. However, with 2 kids that don't really eat too much it's not something we opt for anymore in our later visits and instead seek breakfast options outside. There is a pretty nice fish&stay that offers great breakfast options nearby. Location is a little off the path so it's better if you have your own transportation if you don't want to be stuck with hotel options only.

The Regent Cha-am We booked a Deluxe room including breakfast. We were not expecting much as the price was really good but, what a fabulous surprise when we found it was a suite with a lovely welcoming plate of fruit and cookies! I began to wonder if theyd mixed us up with some - march 2026 honeymooners somewhere!!!! I wasn't expecting how big the place was with 2 huge balconies each big enough for sunbeds and a table!! It's own kitchen, lounge, king sized bed and ensuite and office. -The pool is a beautiful, sparkling clean, heart-shaped affair with plenty of sunbeds and umbrellas as shade is definitely required! The pool along one side must be about 30m+ so it was great for lap swimming as well as chilling out!!! -Beautifully landscaped and next to the sea, the only drawback is that the beach is almost non existent most of the time and while we were there the red flag was up as the sea was quite rough with the wind. The pool more than made up for it. -Breakfast is buffet style like many of these resort places with cereal, pastries, fruit, cooked asian foods and western style ham, crispy bacon, eggs cooked to order, toast and jam. My only criticism is the hot foods, not cooked to order, were luke warm. Don't bother with tea, it's weak and tasteless but the coffee machine does a good variety and there's hot milk to top up with. -The bar in the lobby does happy hour 2 for 1 early evening. -The hotel is around 25km from hua hin centre but a 5 min walk just outside the hotel is a road ”village” where there are a choice of local Thai restaurants, bars, tailors, massage/mani/pedicure places plus a useful 7-11 for essentials. All the restaurants we tried were excellent. They may look empty but will cook to order at all times and the prices are really cheap. The bed was really comfy and the room was serviced daily with clean towels and the usual stuff. -Pool towels were available by the pool and changed as often as you please. -All The staff were friendly and welcoming and most spoke very good English. I would definitely recommend this hotel for a quiet, laid back holiday at this time of year. We might have to return next year!!!!

Pros: - Great amenities, lots to do in the resort for kids. Pool, cinema, kids activities. Gym is okay. - Breakfast was amazing 👏🏻 🤩 Lot's of variety, fresh and delicious. - Quiet and peaceful, with a beautiful view. - 7 Eleven across the road. Cons: - Dated, old rooms - need renovation. - Nothing seemed to actually be happening in the kids club, the staff disappeared and my son got scared by himself in the club, so we had to fetch him and took him to swim instead. - Location is far from the city and they don't offer a shuttle. Over all impression - If you are looking for a resort style break and great breakfast, and you don't want to explore the city, then this is fine, but don't expect a modern 5 star resort.

Love the location, walk to the front and you got the beach. The staffs can be a bit more nicer, the receptionists. The breakfast was filling with varieties of options.
