Anantara Hua Hin reopens with a refreshed take on Thai coastal luxury

Anantara Hua Hin returns just in time for the year’s end with a full transformation that updates the brand’s first-ever resort for a new era. The December reopening reveals redesigned rooms and suites, an expanded beachfront, refreshed pools and a sharper, more contemporary interpretation of its original Thai-village inspiration.

The main pool now sits within a lush oasis of towering palm trees, with new lounging decks that drift into the sea-facing landscape. Families get more room to roam thanks to an upgraded lagoon pool and bar, a reimagined kids’ club with creative play zones and the new mini farm, home to silkie chickens, pygmy goats and peacocks. Active travellers can get stuck into Muay Thai, pickleball, rock climbing and more at the revitalised sports zone.

Dining also steps forward with renewed venues including Sea Fire Salt for prime cuts and seafood on Himalayan salt slabs, Rim Nam for bold Thai flavours and Issara Cafe for bright, breezy mornings.

A polished reboot for one of Hua Hin’s most iconic beachfront escapes.
