Looking for Fairly Swish Hotel near Condo Chain
Looking for Fairly Swish Hotel near Condo Chain
Hi
Anybody stayed or visited The Sea-Cret Hua Hin and can give me some info about the place please?
My daughters and friends are over in Mid Jan and are basically in bag packer mode until the final few days. They want a fairly swish place fairly close to their aging papa in Condo Chain and have selected a few and favour the Sea Crets. Only big question is how far and how accessible is it to the beach. They are lazy souls like their mother (not like me at all) and like to roll out of the sack and hit the beach with a minimum of effort

Re: The Sea-Cret Hua Hin
Richard,
the Sea Cret resort is right on the beach and has it's own private walk-way on to the sea. That section of beach is not great though as there is a stagnant stretch of water sitting right where the resort walkway meets the beach. Well it did when I visited a few years back. The resort itself looks ok externally but never seen the rooms.
My parents have stayed in the Lapa hotel at the other side of Petchkasem and they really like it but of course your daughters will have the nightmare road crossing to contend with.
What about Smile lodge up 94? Great area to stay and not that far to walk to C.C.
Cheers,
GN.

Re: The Sea-Cret Hua Hin
I stayed in The Rock before I started renting at Mykonos... so years back now. The rooms are really nice, worth a look. I recall the staff being very friendly and they have a nice decking area with pool and bar at the back right on the beach. They lost a lot of character there lately though as the two empty plots at either size of the Rock have been cleared and the atmosphere feels a bit bleak now.
Bit of a hike from The Rock to Condo Chain though.

Re: The Sea-Cret Hua Hin
Richard,i believe the Rock resort in Khao Takiab has just been recently completely re-furbished,and was in fact closed for several months during the low season,so might be an interesting choice.Alternatively,although perhaps not so lavish,how about Veranda Lodge,located right on the beach,the rooms are comfortable,and the food is good.Plus relatively close to you.
Re: The Sea-Cret Hua Hin
Thanks guys for all your replies
I've got one of my daughters frantically working hard. Yes working hard at work but is spending all her time on Skype to me, Google earth and numerous sources regarding accomo in HH. I'm knackered replying and keeping track. Roll on March.
Hardly 'swish' when rooms &b/b are on offer at 40 to 50 quid a night

Re: The Sea-Cret Hua Hin
I've never seen the rooms but this place is really nice. Excellent restaurant and one of the best stretches of beach in Hua Hin. Also excellent location as it's almost right opposite M.V.Thistle wrote:Richard,i believe the Rock resort in Khao Takiab has just been recently completely re-furbished,and was in fact closed for several months during the low season,so might be an interesting choice.Alternatively,although perhaps not so lavish,how about Veranda Lodge,located right on the beach,the rooms are comfortable,and the food is good.Plus relatively close to you.
