Top Hotels Near Wildlife Friends Foundation Thailand – Wildlife Resuce Center in Tha Yang from NZ$28

"An excellent stay for a short getaway from BKK. We went during a long Mother’s Day weekend so the place was a bit packed at first. After Sunday/Monday, we pretty much had the entire resort to ourselves. This property is meticulously well manicured. Great dining options on premise. I highly recommend Casa Mare which is their most high end restaurant right by the water. If you are traveling without a car then you need to use grab/bolt which can be tricky as Cha Am is more remote and low key. It’s our first time in Cha Am as we usually stay in Hua Hin and BKK. There is also a strip of small bars and local restaurants about 5-10 minutes away…and of course a 7-11! There are 2 hotel pools; one for adults and one for kids. The water seems a bit mucky and wasn’t as clear so I never used it. Other than that, it’s a beautifully large resort and would definitely return. "

"From the moment we entered the lobby till we left we enjoyed every moment. You need to go in the pool. Fantastic"

"I recently stayed at the Dusit Thani Hua Hin Hotel and was impressed by its grandeur and classic décor. The hotel is quite large, providing a sense of spaciousness throughout the property. I stayed in a sea-view room on the second floor of the main building, which, although a bit of a walk from the lobby, was conveniently closer to the swimming pool and the beach. Unfortunately, it rained throughout my stay, limiting my outdoor activities. However, the Health Club offered a variety of facilities, including squash, basketball, tennis, and even Muay Thai classes. It’s important to note that most of these require an additional fee, including access to the sauna and steam room, which I found surprising given the room rate of $179.18 USD per night. I used the squash court for 150 baht for 30 minutes; while the equipment was of good quality, there was a small flaw in the court that slightly affected play. The swimming pool looked expansive and inviting, but I didn’t get a chance to enjoy it due to the weather. The breakfast buffet was a highlight, offering a wide variety of dishes and thoughtful touches like providing both crispy and soft bacon to cater to different preferences. Overall, it is a great vacation spot, especially if you book a Club Room for more inclusive benefits. One note: being an Expedia Platinum member didn’t seem to offer any noticeable perks during my stay."

"Great location and compatible "

"*A Longtime Favorite – Well-Deserved 5 Stars!** I’ve stayed at Veranda Resort Hua Hin - Cha Am many, many times since 2019—back in the "other world" before COVID-19. Since my first visit, I’ve made sure to return every year, and now I finally have the chance to leave a proper review. This resort absolutely deserves five stars for so many reasons. As a professional chef, food is the first thing I look for, and Veranda has truly impressed me. In 2024, they earned a Michelin Recommendation (Michelin-Star Worthy), and I couldn’t be happier for them! The amazing team that has served me since day one has kept both the food and service consistently outstanding. The flavors are delicious, and their hospitality is undeniable—from the bellboys to the front desk, they’re a true powerhouse. Beyond the dining, the resort offers a comfortable, clean, and safe environment with a beautiful beachfront. Without a doubt, this is the place to stay in the Hua Hin/Cha Am area—not to be missed! "
