Next door to the Sofitel, this petite resort, owned by a Bangkok aristocrat,
specialises in family-friendly cottages. The decor is so crisp and subdued that it is
almost plain, meandering garden paths lead past the pool to the beach and there's
a dedicated kid's room with toys and books.

Eating
NIGHT MARKET $$
(Th Dechanuchit btw Th Phetkasem & Th Sasong; dishes from 60B; 5pm-midnight)
An attraction that rivals the beach, Hua Hin's night market tops locals' lists of fa-
vourite spots to eat. Ice-packed displays of spiny lobsters and king prawns appeal
to the big-spenders, but the simple stir-fry stalls offer food that is just as tasty.
