Mövenpick Asara Resort & Spa Hua Hin, Hua Hin

Suite is fantastic but a little bit old ! For the price I have no complain! Breakfasts are good ! Receptions are very helpful ! Even the guard at the front gate is so friendly and helpful! I will go back again !

Overall great stay. Room is big, private pool is rather small (as expected). Nice swimming pool but the hotel's "private beach" is not exactly a beach — you don't have access to the waters. But view from the beach is spectacular. One consistent problem: Mosquitos. Even inside of the room with mosquitoes incense. Could be annoying at times.

Beautiful property, great pool, great breakfeast and coffee. Friendly staff - especially the pool guys are very on to it. Also loved the Thaiboxing class. On the downside, this resort takes full advantage of the fact that they are out of town and guests don't have many options in terms of restaurants, massage etc. We have travelled in Thailand a lot, and were quite chocked at the prices. For example, double/three times the price for standard food dishes (e.g. chicken cashew nuts cost 420 compared to 150 at most places) plus an extra 17% in service charge and taxes. My son is only 5 years old and not a big eater, and they charged 250 a day for his breakfast regardless. Most days he only had one piece of toast from the buffet, so that's quite an expensive piece of toast... Going price for Thai-massage is 250-300/h . Asara charges 500 for 30 minutes on the beach, or 1600 for an hour at the spa. Also, kid's activities have been free at resorts we stayed at before, but Asara charge for everything e.g. painting, arts and crafts. There is supposed to be a free shuttle in to town but in reality it's only a 10 person van going once a day, which is way too small to service a hotel of this size. Two times out of three when we tried to book it was already full, and we had to pay 400 each way for a taxi booked through the hotel. A tip is to look up what time there's low tide, as this is when you can walk along the beach and find other restaurants and massage.

This was such a beautiful hotel! It was quiet and relaxing. The food was delicious, and the staff was fantastic. We had no complaints and would LOVE to go back!

This place was amazing! We had a private pool villa at a great rate (thanks hotels.com!) top-notch resort. Everything was perfect! Great resort for kids. Friendly staff, kids activities, coloring pages at dinner and a great kids menu - not to mention amazing pools everywhere!
