Summer is never my thing, not even beach nor sunlight. Yes, I admit that I wasn't a summer girl, not till this trip. For the past travels, bikini trip was never in the list, not because I am afraid of getting tanned (maybe partly because of that), it's because I don't know how to SWIM. All this while I have never mentioned this to you, I am actually suffering from aquaphobia, a persistent and abnormal fear of water. "People suffer aquaphobia in many ways and may experience it even though they realize the water in an ocean, a river, or even a bathtub poses no imminent threat." Not sure any of you have heard of it, but this makes my entire life harder as I don't get to understand the "find the peace underwater" thingy. I don't lie about that, so all this while I was trying to solve this phobia, by learning how to swim. Before this trip, I actually asked boyfriend to teach me, at least staying in the pool without fear.
Alright, stop the crap and back to the topic! I've been to Hua Hin once but it was just a quick tour to Santorini Park. For those who're going to Hua Hin, I recommend you to stay for at least two days, as you're going to spare a day for the villa! Heard so much about this villa before that, so my girl friends and I have decided to stay at The Sea-Cret Garden, Hua Hin. The reason why I recommend this hotel is because it is affordable, around MYR250-350, and secondly it is very photo-worthy! Be prepared 'cause I am going to spam you with lots of photos!
We went there by rented car called Thai Rent A Car, you can find it easily in airport and it actually costs us around 1100THB for 1-6 days for Mitsubishi Mirage, I think it's super cheap because you can drive anywhere by using Waze, and you can find any type of car models here. We'd actually drove to Santorini Park before heading back to Bangkok. It took us around 2 and half an hour to got to the villa.
Oh yeah, something that you should know before coming to here, The Sea-Cret Garden is actually a little bit far from beach, also train market area. They do provide shuttle bus for those who're interested going to train market or other places. I recommend you to buy snacks over so you can enjoy the party at your villa. Don't forget to bring your float! They have float for rent but designs are limited. There is only one type of room, which is Deluxe Pool Access Room, where you can access the pool anywhere. I remembered we girls keep running to each other room because it's too easy haha!
I had an amazing trip with the girls!

Hi there! I've read about you renting a car in Bangkok & HuaHin via Thai Rent A Car. May I know did you drive from Bangkok to HuaHin or did you rent the car in HuaHin? Is it difficult to drive on our own using Waze?
ReplyDeleteAnd you said you drove to Santorini Park. Is there any parking provided?
Thanks!
hello dear! yes i drove from bangkok to hua hin! so i rented the car at bangkok airport, i just have to return the car when i go back to airport, it's not very difficult using waze, but you have to make sure it's the same location, like you have to zoom in and see the map, you can also use google map to be safe! :)
DeleteYes i drove to santorini park, parking is available! :)
