Hua Hin villa estates tips and tricks anyone?
Hello all
Looking for any tips on the better Hua Hin managed estates to live in. Will be looking to buy (in my Thai wifes name) a single floor villa over the next few months. I have visited Hua Hin a few short times but could never get my head around the lay-out and where the better residential areas are. Presently reside in Phuket but need live closer to Bangkok for a few reasons. Our budget is around 8 - 9.5 million Baht and places like Crystal View and the Orchid Palm developments look interesting. Any feedback good or bad on these for mentioned and any other similar estates would be greatly appreciated, feel free to PM me also if you wish.
Thanks to all who can help.

Go and have a look behind the orchid palms real estate, Smarthouse The Valley, good contractor and nice plots still available.
Re: Hua Hin villa estates tips and tricks anyone?
Speaking of Orchid Palms... that's the best development builder in Hua Hin... on the sixth or seventh development now and all sold out before the first house was built... Soi 88 and off Soi 112 near Banyan golf course. I've built two houses in Thailand and used several builders/contractors and nobody I've seen matches their quality. They've won several awards for developments and design.

Re: Hua Hin villa estates tips and tricks anyone?
Yeah we live in Orchard Palms Project 5 on Soi #88 & from all the places we looked at when we were looking around have found the quality of the houses & the area to be the best for what we wanted. Some del nice houses in our area as well

If that is the area you like then you should look at Whitestone and Red Mountain also.
Re: Hua Hin villa estates tips and tricks anyone?
Thanks will have to check those areas out as well. We are still to look around the Golf course areas as we'll, not that I play golf it is just the houses looked good on the internet in that area.
Re: Hua Hin villa estates tips and tricks anyone?
Will add my voice to hhfarang about Orchid Palm. Lived in 4th development for over 2 years and you cannot beat the quality and service you will receive in that development.
Re: Hua Hin villa estates tips and tricks anyone?
You'll pay a premium for a house on a golf course just because it's on or near a course and not because it's any better than other houses. So if you are willing to pay for the "golf view" then you might want to do that, but the other consideration of living on a golf course here is that there is only one (that I know of) with adjacent housing that is near/in town and that would be Palm Hills. I would not want to live at Black Mountain for instance even though the homes are beautiful because of its isolated location. After dark, when all the golfers go home, I imagine it is like living in the middle of nowhere.Thanks will have to check those areas out as well.

Deductions after reading the Property & Real Estate Forum.
If I want to buy a villa, I should wait till I can get a villa in Orchid Palm, then I shall have no problem in future.
Because it is good guy who built the villa and lived by good guy.

I think there is 1 plot remaining for sale at The Views by Orchid Palm.
Re: Hua Hin villa estates tips and tricks anyone?
The Orchid Palms builder also has a new development going up fast on the road off Soi 112 on the way to Banyan golf course... not sure what it's called.

Thanks to all the posters here so far - can anyone give any feedback on Crystal View estate?
Re: Hua Hin villa estates tips and tricks anyone?
What kind of feedback are you looking for? There's two new houses being built at the moment and only one empty plot left but there are quite a few resales also there are property's to rent for long or short term, ask away and I will try to answer your questions.

Looking for positives & negatives on Crystal View Villa -
[*]location, ie flooding issues, road problems, overall position to shops etc,
[*]estate management
[*]quality of estate houses that have been built
[*]any other issues that anyone else can mention ie the best of and worst of Crystal View
Re: Hua Hin villa estates tips and tricks anyone?
Location is ok, only 10 minutes to downtown, Tesco located nearby, a few small restaurants and shops and 3 7/11s nearby, no flooding issues, road outside development is horrible but is scheduled to be resurfaced whenever the municipality gets around to it.[*]location, ie flooding issues, road problems, overall position to shops etc,
[*]estate management

Estate management has had many problems. Can't elaborate on public forum.
Quality varies depending on the house. None are of the quality being built now as the builder was learning as he went and the earlier built houses are worse than the later built ones (construction of the existing development took around 5 years).
Sometimes has problems with water delivery from the main and you have to pay inflated prices for trucked in water.
