Surrounded by lush tropical gardens, Sheraton Hua Hin Resort & Spa features the soothing wood tones and palette of warm, bright colors that are characteristic of modern Thai interior design. The 240-room property consists of nine buildings that surround an inviting lagoon-style swimming pool. A sense of welcome and comfort awaits guests at this stylish new resort, where well-trained associates will provide superior service and a personal touch to make guests feel they belong.

“Blending old world charm with modern comforts, the Sheraton Hua Hin Resort & Spa is a choice addition to the Sheraton resort portfolio,” said Wayne Buckingham, Regional Vice President - Starwood Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia. “As Thailand’s oldest, most prestigious beach town and the home of the summer palace for Thailand’s royal family, the historic fishing village of Hua Hin is now an exclusive vacation retreat for Bangkok’s elite, offering visitors a variety of peaks, caves and waterfalls, as well as a wide selection of top-notch seafood restaurants, adventure excursions and golf courses.”

Known as a preferred destination for families, honeymooners, golfers, and business travelers, Hua Hin combines the facilities of a modern holiday destination with the charm of its unique, local attractions.
