With many appealing options to try out, Hua Hin is a great place to spend some time with your girlfriends.
Go on a tour of the Monsoon Valley winery where you could first see the art of winemaking and then enjoy a wine and food pairing with your girlfriends. What could be more sophisticated than a walk amongst the sleepy buzz of a vineyard and a few hours of delectable and dainty food with the best wine you could find at the vineyard. You could book a tour for around 1400 baht per person and the tour will most likely include wine and tapas as well as transport from and to your hotel in Hua Hin. The whole experience is likely to leave you pleasantly satisfied and mildly intoxicated.
Retail therapy can always make you feel better and shopping is always an essential part and parcel of a holiday to Thailand. If you are an art lover, visit the Cicada market to purchase paintings, various sculptures and handicrafts to take home. Hua Hin Market Village is a shopping centre with a multitude of shops that sell branded items as well as a multiplex cinema. Plern Wan is a place for you to enjoy a shopping tour of the 1950s style. Saphira is a jewellery store of the sophisticated kind where you can purchase exquisitely crafted gold and silver items. You can even watch the process of your order being crafted with care and expertise. Visit the Hua Hin Grand Night Market to taste a different kind of a shopping experience. While the front of the market is dedicated to the usual night market wares, the back of the market enjoys more of a hip vibe with beautiful curios for sale alongside quaint bars.
What is a holiday with your girlfriends if you don't spend copious amounts of time at a spa? Take spa breaks from time to time during your sojourn in Hua Hin. As a newly emerging resort town of the luxurious kind, Hua Hin comprises a number of resorts complete with spas such as the Anantara Hua Hin Resort & Spa. You can book a full day at the spa with relaxing baths with essential oils, steam room time as well as time spent titivating at the beauty salon. Above all take some time to enjoy a blissful massage and let your massage therapist work at your stress points to ease you into relaxation.
If you love spending some adventurous hours playing water babies, you would love time spent at the Black Mountain Waterpark. Scream in delight with your friends as the water slides take you back to the carefree days of your childhood and visit the spa pool to relax.
As of late, a number of restaurants with rooftop facilities have sprung up in Hua Hin. You can choose a moonlit night to sit back and relax with your favourite cocktail in hand and chat with your friends of shoes and ships and sealing wax.
