Ardea Resort Pool Villa
Intimate 3-star resort in Amphawa, close to the floating market. Standard and deluxe villas overlooking an outdoor pool, 1.5 hours from Bangkok.
Ardea Resort Pool Villa is a small 3-star property located in Amphawa, in Samut Songkhram province, approximately ninety minutes southwest of Bangkok. Address: 239/7 Amphawa, Samut Songkhram. The resort embraces a minimalist Thai design philosophy, with villas arranged around an outdoor pool and positioned just moments from Amphawa's renowned floating market.
Why stay here
Amphawa is best explored in the late afternoon and evening, when the floating market comes alive and boat tours depart to observe fireflies along the canal. Having a base on-site transforms the experience: you skip the back-and-forth commute from Bangkok and discover the town once day-trippers have departed.
Ardea Resort Pool Villa answers this need perfectly. It's a modestly scaled property, rated 3-star, that prioritizes understated comfort over grand gestures. The outdoor pool, around which the guest room terraces are arranged, serves as the establishment's anchor point.
Atmosphere and architecture
The spirit is that of a small, contemporary resort with Thai influences: clean lines, light materials, landscaped gardens. The room terraces open directly onto the pool, creating effortless flow between accommodation, water, and shared spaces. The property's compact size explains its serene atmosphere—more intimate guesthouse than sprawling resort.
Rooms
Two categories are offered:
- Standard: 24 m², air-conditioned, with furnished terrace overlooking the pool.
- Deluxe: 32 m², same layout with more generous proportions.
Some rooms can be adjoining, a useful option for families or groups of friends traveling together.

- Amphawa Floating Market: minutes away, lively Friday through Sunday evenings.
