Hua Hin

Long referred to as Thailand’s “royal resort,” Hua Hin has grown from its venerable roots as a holiday destination for Bangkok’s high-society to become one of the country’s most talked about holiday-home investment markets. Located 230 km south of Bangkok on the Gulf of Thailand, Hua Hin’s property growth really started to take off about three and a half years ago, with beachfront development moving particularly fast.

As the second home of Thailand’s Royal Family, Hua Hin is safe and far more conservative than its sister city to the north, Pattaya. Though there is plenty of nightlife to enjoy, it is far more controlled and regulated, allowing for an expat and holiday experience more suitable for families and quieter dispositions. Beautiful beaches abound, with many first class developments under way or completed. As in all of Thailand’s real estate markets, choices for property investments are plentiful. Villas, houses, apartments, condos and bungalows all come in tremendous varieties of price and style.
