With their first hotel opening in Belem, Brazil in 1949, InterContinental Hotels, one of the world’s major luxury hotel and resort brands, now have over 160 hotels in over 80 countries worldwide all offering high quality in terms of service and accommodation. The Hua Hin Resort in Thailand is an elegant beachfront hotel, which has around 150 rooms, suites and villas split between the two wings of the hotel; the Resort wing and the newly built BluPort wing. The resort also boasts La Residence Hua Hin a private, two-storey Thai-Victoria mansion, which is the epitome of grandeur and opulence.
Working closely with local artisans and designers, the InterContinental Hua Hin Resort have created a hotel that features lavishly appointed bathrooms, plush furnishings and truly stylish décor – the brand new rooms and suites in the BluPort wing have all been furnished in contemporary Thai design so the emphasis here is on true luxury and comfort.
At Hua Hin, they provide a holistic holiday experience, and have put together a handpicked list of activities designed to suit the needs and lifestyles of all their guests – both young and old. For those travellers seeking a taste of local culture and spirituality there is the option to start the day ‘Thai-style’, giving alms to the local monks, followed with an awakening open-air yoga class. If the 55-metre infinity edge pool at the heart of the resort and the pristine white sands of the beach just a step away from the hotel are not enough for guests looking for water fun, the Intercontinental also provides complimentary access to Vana Nava Hua Hin, an exotic tropical environment with amazing slides, and rides and home to Asia’s tallest man-made waterfall which is over 31 meters high. For those travel buyers looking to craft a complete family holiday experience for their guests, the InterContinental Hua Hin’s approach to children’s entertainment, with a wide selection of authentic taster sessions of Thai activities has everything to help younger guests create memories that will last a lifetime.
As far as memorable breaks for parties with different tastes go, Hua Hin certainly has all the bases covered, in their own inimitable style.
