If in Thailand a visit to Hua Hin will quite surprise you as is a much smaller town better roads & much cleaner than quite a few places. The beach not so crowded cleaner and of course with less vendors which does make it more relaxing & a great get away place.

While traveling we stopped for 4 days in this small but very beautiful town. This is the place that the Thai Royals spend there holidays we were told -- and its no wonder why. It has exceptional Spa Resorts and the town itself is not a constant bombardment of tourists -- its more traditional. Has some amazing historical significance to Thailand and if you go at the right time of year you can watch the Elephant polo, which in itself is a sight to see.
