Located 150 km south of Bangkok, along the Gulf of Thailand coast, the Ace of Hua Hin sits between Cha-Am and Hua Hin, two beach towns favoured by Thai travellers for their peaceful atmosphere. The resort comprises 118 rooms and suites arranged around an infinity pool, within easy reach of the beach.

Why choose Ace of Hua Hin

This property suits travellers seeking a well-structured beach stopover after a few days in Bangkok, without committing to a lengthy journey further south. The resort's size (118 units) allows for well-distributed spaces: a central restaurant, another by the pool, a rooftop venue, a wellness centre and a fitness facility with certified coaching available.

The format appeals equally to couples (Ace Superior rooms of 45 m²), families or groups of friends, thanks to several two-bedroom suites and units with private pools.

The resort atmosphere

The tone is that of a contemporary beachfront resort rather than a boutique property. The lobby opens onto a lounge decorated in sand tones accented with maritime blue, complete with a pool table and signature cocktail bar. The clientele remains predominantly Thai and Asian, lending a more local atmosphere than you'd find in Phuket or Koh Samui.

Cha-Am cultivates an unhurried pace: few nightclubs, sunset views over the beach, a jetty lined with fishing boats and barges, a street market. Resort evenings often extend to the Ivy Lounge on the rooftop, where guests linger over wine, cheese and Asian-inspired bites.

Rooms and suites

The resort offers several categories, from standard rooms to private pool suites:

• Ace Superior: 45 m², garden view from the balcony, close to the spa and fitness facility. Ideal for couples.
• Ace Deluxe: direct access to the infinity pool from the terrace, bathroom with bathtub and separate shower. Some units are wheelchair accessible.
• Junior Pool Access Suite: terrace with daybed overlooking the pool, private garden.
• Ace Garden View Suite: two bedrooms, living area and dining corner, overlooking the gardens. Suitable for families or groups.
• Ace Premium View Suite: same layout as the Garden View, but with sea views.
• Ace Sea View Private Pool Suite: private pool and dining table for six.
• Ace Tropical Private Pool Suite: 215 m², the hotel's most spacious option, featuring a lounge, terrace and private infinity pool.

Dining and amenities

Four dining outlets cover all dayparts:

• The Exchange, next to the lobby: organic buffet breakfast, then classic and contemporary Thai cuisine at lunch and dinner.
• The Ivy, poolside: grilled specialities, pasta, salads and Thai curries, plus burgers and pizzas. Tables and private cabanas with loungers facing the ocean.
• Ivy Lounge, on the rooftop: wines, cheeses and Asian-inspired bites, with curated music in the evenings.
• Lobby lounge: signature cocktails and pool table.

The Chiva Rak Wellness Center offers body treatments within a holistic approach. The fitness facility features cardio and strength equipment, with certified coaching available on request.

Location and access

The resort is situated 150 km from Bangkok, on the Cha-Am-Hua Hin coast. Several options to reach it:

• By train from Hua Lamphong station to Hua Hin: expect approximately 3 to 4 hours depending on the service.
• By bus to Hua Hin bus station, then taxi.
• By air: Hua Hin Airport connects to several Thai cities.

The resort can arrange a shuttle from the airport or station upon prior request.

Locally, Cha-Am offers jetty strolls, swimming and jet-skiing. For diving, head further south to Koh Tao or Koh Phangan.
