Whiter beach and you can find quiteness! I like this area in Hua Hin and when we get back, wouldn't mind staying here..
HuaHin has a miles stretch of semi white beaches that you can do all sort of water playing! Hubby was trying to do some surfing...
Many beach front hotels have concessions for wind surfing and sailing needs and power boats can be hired. Just asked your hotel staff about it.
Your local grocery store
by nomadig about FamilyMart
Buying all food and drinks from hotel pool bar or restaurants is easy and conveniently, but unfortunately quite expensive -- especially on longer trips. Hua Hin is fortunately packed with small grocery stores, Mediterranean style supermarkets.
The FamilyMart chain has several outlets in the Hua Hin tourist area, one being very conveniently located just outside Hilton Hua Hin. The selection is extensive, including a wide variety of drinks (including, but not limited to alcohol), snacks of all kinds, ice creams, dairy products and so forth. The prices are okay, a bit depending on the product. The happy logo itself is a good reason to select FamilyMart instead of 7-Eleven.
If you want chicken..
by riproy about The Chicken Restaurant
A woody open restaurant in a quite(r) area away from the crowds. Thais love this place - all the meat there is chicken and chicken is in all the dishes (well not all). No Pork. No seafood. Just great GREAT chicken done in so many different dishes and different ways.
It is only open midday til about 2 pm i think. Hmm, i'd have to say The Chicken!
Hua Hin Beach~Aound Sofitel & Hilton

Traquility around the city beach shouldn't be missed. It can get too crowded though but when you're around the weekdays and it's not in high seasons, you will find yourself alone...Take some pictures of this stones along the side of the beach as it's what the city name come from!
The photo was taken outside the Hilton Hotel. It was very crowded as it's during the long weekend of New Year!
Monkies
by yen_2
Go directly from the left of the hill when you feel like you can't do the steep stair case in going to the trmple. From the entrance of the monastery, you will notice many monkies huggling around and if you will buy bananas for them, be aware! They will get you..;-) After a few minutes, you will arrive in the monastery by the bay! Very pretty and beautiful scenery..You can view hundreds of monkies alike wanting to have a piece of your banana..If you like to take pics with them, you can they sure know how to pose to! See this pic? They pose in the waiting shade and beyond that is the bay...
