HUA HIN

Just to the south of Cha am lies the famous beach resort town of Hua Hin ( which when translated literally means “rock head” due to the town’s rocky coastline. The King’s Summer Palace is located on the outskirts of the town and His Majesty lives here for a good portion of the year.
With the introduction of the railway line and the first golf club in the 1920s, the town became a very popular seaside holiday resort for Thai people but development is closely controlled and you will not see the variety of entertainment that is popular in Pattaya and Phuket. Today Hua Hin boasts half a dozen or so championship golf courses notably Springfield Royal Country Club (where the course was designed by Jack Nicklaus), the Royal Hua Hin Golf course (dating from 1926 and the oldest in Thailand ) and Palm Hills Golf Resort and Country Club. The new Black Mountain golf course has also just opened.

There are about 3000 retirees living in Hua Hin making it one of the more popular destinations for retirement properties for sale in Thailand. This is probably due to the climate, inexpensive cost of living and stunning natural surroundings such as the white sandy beaches which stretch for miles.

One of the major strengths of the Hua Hin property market is the more balanced nature of demand from both Thai and foreign purchasers. The other major Thai beach resorts are dominated by foreign buyers, which exposes these property markets to greater cyclical swings in demand. Due to the more balanced demand for both condos and villas, the Hua Hin property market is less exposed to such factors. This provides the basis for stable and sustained growth in Hua Hin property values.

This oldest and most traditional Thai resort caters for foreigners and Thais alike and many of Bangkok’s rich and famous have built their own beachfront homes here so they can enjoy leisurely family weekends in a resort that has maintained its unique identity.

Nowadays, despite modernisation and development, Hua Hin’s laid back lifestyle is not all that different from those enjoyed by its aristocratic visitors of days gone by. It remains a charming resort with a sense of history and a peaceful but scenic atmosphere and has all the services that you would expect in an international town.

Secondly, the railway line runs straight through the town with at least one train per hour. These diesel trains are noisy so we advise you to avoid the area anywhere near the railway tracks.
