I chose the hotel mainly because of its location, between two shopping malls and close to the beach. Do not mistake this hotel for the Sea-Cret Garden hotel in Hua Hin, which is located much further away from the beach. The hotel is no longer in the beautiful state that is shown on the photos. The rooms are OK and clean, the pool too, but the rooftop bar is no longer functional, and the beachside house is also a bit abandoned. However the personnel still arrange beach chairs and umbrellas on the terrace. The breakfast and restaurant are nice, actually the lunch and dinner menus are better than the breakfast. All in all, the price is OK and the rooms are clean. There will apparently be a renovation of parts of the hotel.
The location is very good, two shopping malls are within walking distance, and other areas (City center with the Night Market, Cicada Night Market, Kao Takiap hill) can easily be reached by taxi (tuk tuk) or Song Theaw. The area around the hotel and the beach in front are quiet.
