If you've been to Bangkok, one thing you'll know is that the traffic is never-ending! A thirty-minute trip could even take up to 2 hours. Traffic can be a menace in Bangkok especially if you are travelling with very small children, it will be hard. The roads in Hua Hin are easier to commute. Since Hua Hin is located close to Bangkok, it makes a lot of sense to stay there and travel with ease especially with kids.
Hua Hin offers affordable, comfortable, modern and safe accommodation for the whole family. Finding accommodation with kids is tricky since there are a lot of details you need to look into. By booking Hua Hin beach resorts such as the Holiday Inn Vana Nava Hua Hin you can make your holiday even more memorable.
There are plenty of activities involving elephants in Hua Hin and kids are going to love most of them. Elephant back rides are usually a hit among children. You will be safely seated on comfortable saddles while the experienced mahout guides the elephant on the correct path. When you go to the elephant village in Hua Hin, you can even feed these majestic beasts.
The massive coastline in Hua Hin makes it easier for the resorts and restaurants to be spread out. The beach is usually clutter-free and rarely overcrowded however it is not inactive and too quiet, having the right kind of balance to offer visitors enough space to enjoy the beach with a bit of excitement. Pony rides and banana boat rides are popular among the kids while adventure lovers can enjoy water skiing, windsurfing, and parasailing on this pristine beach. Parts of the beach is fringed by a line of trees and you usually find Thais enjoying the shade there while the paler skin visitors look for sunny spots to get their tans!
Hua Hin may be a hit among tourists but it still manages to remain low-key. The town is charming and makes you feel like staying behind forever. Since the beaches are not overcrowded, everything moves at a slow pace. The night markets are pretty busy but not as much to create a frenzy. The shopping malls are within a convenient distance. The atmosphere of the town makes it a beautiful place for a family-friendly holiday.
Kids are usually early birds, and in Hua Hin, it's no problem. You can head to the beach for an early morning stroll or run. Kids can simply go in their PJs and join the cheery locals splashing and taking pictures on the beach. If you very early you'll see fishermen casting nets or coming back to the shore with their day's catch.
