Review: SO Sofitel Hua Hin… So Chic… So Good… So Happy

SO Sofitel Hua Hin is a private beachfront accommodation that embodies the concept of completeness, encompassing So Arty for artistic design, So Nature for a nature-centric resort experience, and stylish decoration. Beyond its intriguing design philosophy, SO Sofitel Hua Hin offers a plethora of interesting activities. The service and accommodation are top-notch, reaching a 5-star level. The facilities available are extensive, providing a wide array of choices. Even a one-night stay might not be sufficient to fully utilize all the facilities. Staying at SO Sofitel Hua Hin for two days or more would be ideal for a truly satisfying experience.

SO Sofitel Hua Hin is truly an accommodation for every lifestyle and age. Fashion enthusiasts will find delight in the resort’s picture-perfect corners, capturing moments from relaxation to the time spent in the imaginative world. Beginning with the comfortable, white rabbit-shaped timekeeper welcoming you to leave the chaos of the outside world behind, you can then immerse yourself in the realm of imagination. The gently descending soft-stone staircase leads you to the open-air, spectacular lobby. At this point, the journey into the imaginative world of a leisurely stay at SO Sofitel Hua Hin begins.

Introducing the hottest photo spot at So Sofitel Huahin, this particular corner is truly captivating, and personally, I’ve never come across anything like it before. It’s a 3D photo corner that, when lit up, produces stunning images like the one shown. This spot is located near the swimming pool in the So Fit fitness and So Spa zones. Despite the hotel’s large size, finding facilities is not difficult at all. The fitness and spa zones are conveniently situated close to the lobby, and there’s a pool nestled between the fitness and spa areas. For those who are health-conscious and enjoy exercising, this spot is definitely a gem.

Another beachfront gem and signature spot at SO Sofitel Hua Hin is the colossal hand of Nang Phanthurat, emerging from the sands. It has become a must-visit spot for every guest, a signature of the resort. When staying at SO Sofitel Hua Hin, not only is the beachfront serene and tranquil, but the sand is also fine and suitable for water play, with no sharp rocks to worry about. Moreover, the iconic sight of Nang Phanthurat’s hand rising from the sand adds a unique touch, making it a spot that everyone must capture in photographs.

The One Bedroom Pool Villa is our chosen accommodation this time, featuring a private villa measuring 215 square meters. It comes with a mid-sized swimming pool and a spacious terrace for relaxation. The privacy is well-maintained with a surrounding wall, possibly made of tree fences, providing a semi-transparent appearance to outsiders. This natural fence adds a touch of freshness to the villa, creating a tropical garden atmosphere.

Inside the villa, the main functions are divided into three parts. The first part includes a TV set and a comfortable sofa for relaxation. The second part consists of the bathroom, with a bathtub, rain shower, and a walk-in closet. The third part is the bedroom, featuring high glass doors extending from the floor to the ceiling, allowing for good ventilation and a view of the swimming pool. The curtains provide ample light control when closed. The sleeping experience is comfortable, and amenities such as bath creams, shampoos, and fragrant lotions are fully provided. The mini-bar is complimentary, excluding alcoholic beverages.

The resort area is shaded with a variety of trees, both small and large. The garden and grass field are well-maintained. There are paths suitable for cycling for exercise as well.
