Hey Mr Side Trip Life, I had a question for you's. I'm travelling to Thailand to stay for 2 months or 3 months, but one thing I'm really going to miss is playing music (guitar) and practicing... Do you know of any options for people in Hua Hin to practice music in a way that doesn't have the potential to bother other people? I'm thinking something like recording studio or sound proofed room like maybe kereoke or something? Would also settle for somewhere outdoors just far enough away from others it wouldn't bother them if there's anything like that. Was just wondering if you had any ideas for something like that, or perhaps might know the prices on something like a sound room, or even if any of the hotels/apartment buildings happen to have one that guests can use? Thanks in advance! Life looks lovely in Hua Hin ^^

[@SideTripLife]

@@taiyoctopus2958 There's loads of detached bungalows a bit away from town. I'm sure if you rented a motorbike and toured around you'd find one that's not too close to neighbours. If signing a lease, perhaps ask the owner of it's ok to sound proof or egg shell carton a room (non-permanently). Also hit HH FB groups and ask if anyone wants to jam, or has a place to play, you'll get like minded interest I'm sure (+trolls, just ignore;) Last, google 'hua hin recording studio' there's a few hits, not sure how active or up to date. Good luck. STL

Great video I have not been to Hua Hin for many years, I remember the lime guesthouse used to some really nice pies, the whole place looks very big now. 👍😎

Hua Hin is far more spread out vs 20 yrs ago but still charming too.

[@kleerogers]

LOVE HUA HIN!!!! Spent many winters there, going back this fall from Penticton BC, maybe selling everything and moving permanently!!!!!

[@SideTripLife]

Love the Okanagon too. Would be the perfect dual locations 6 x 6

[@kleerogers]

@@SideTripLife Yes perfect 6 X 6, but it is killing us financially, we might pull the plug and go travelling full time, will sell our property in Canada, become non residents for tax purposes, just keep our investment portfolio ,and collect CPP and OAS in a year when I turn 65 (3 years for my wife)

[@DiamondMind949]

I'm Korean, but speak English, and I'm learning Thai from a Canadian hahaha. Love your videos man. Just a small suggestion, it might be a good idea to make a video with all the "instagrammable" places too, I think a lot of folks would be interested in that sort of thing.

[@ThatWasThenThisIsNow-yn1eq]

A large Chang can be had at Jomtien Night Market for 70B...two months ago also. I'm going to be visiting this area and going south down the coast a few hundred miles come this December. Your vids, doing that trip down toward Khanom, inspired me to do this on a Honda Forza 350 scooter for most of that month. This looks like an excellent area to spend some time if one has the proper visa to be renting long-term or during a retirement for sure. Personally, I prefer The Philippines but Thailand has its many pluses beyond what the PI has to offer in regards to infrastructure and prices for rental/hotel/airbnb etc. I've only watched a handful of your vids. You sound like you are a Canuk. Are you sir?

[@sooantonysolotraveler]

I am glad to watch your video update and know that this month MAY over there in Hua Hin is low season now and hope next month too but disappointed that you did not mention how is the weather over there now in MAY, was it still sunny sunshine days and is there any raining moment started there from MAY or not yet? I have already planning to travel to Hua Hin next month JUNE from 9th to 12th June 2024.

[@SideTripLife]

Finally got a bit of rain last week which helped break the heat dome. Next up is the annual wind/monsoon change from NE to SW which takes place usually mid-end May. This will bring rain/wind/waves to Phuket side but Gulf side (Hua Hin/Samui etc) is more protected thus less rain and calm seas initially for June-Aug (well, usually, we'll see;)

[@sooantonysolotraveler]

@@SideTripLife Thank you for your info., have a nice day ahead.

Can you tell me where you ate your meal? I'd like to try the same meal at that night market. Somehow give me the directions through Google Maps? Thanks😊

[@rossp561]

As a person who walks, no car/motorbike, how easy is it to get around Hua Hin? I recall not many baht buses and I use Bolt.

[@markfoley3923]

Hua Hin is generally walkable, as it is flat and has better sidewalks in many areas than most other places I've lived in Thailand. Depending on where you are staying, there are likely plenty of restaurants, coffee shops, pubs, and other shopping options within a short walk. There is one primary baht bus line; the green line, which runs up and down the main Phetkasem Road between Khao Takiab at the south end of town to the airport in the north. This route passes many of the main shopping and night market areas. Grab and Bolt are readily available, and there are tuk tuks and taxis standing by at most busy locations too. Cheers.

[@rayronald7269]

Green songtaews run throughout the day from Takiab to north Hua Hin along Petchkasem Rd. 15 baht per trip. Personally find a bicycle to be the perfect mode of transport.

[@mijead00]

I always walk in HH

[@Mrrealestate90]

Hey my wife and I are traveling to Hua Hin Next. Right now we are on Koh Larn. Any suggestions on where to stay out there. We will be there from the 18th-22nd.

[@stevozrepto5558]

Near the old town

[@aussiesam01]

Don't know what type of place you like or what your budget is. In recent visits I've found the Chalelarn Hotel to be delightful, full of beautiful Thai artefacts and has a pool on the roof and jacuzzi rooms available. Outside it looks like nothing much, but inside it's lovely inside the rooms. Staff are very friendly and it's right in the middle of town, not far from the night food market. In June I will be staying at the Panisara Pool Villa. Never tried this one before. It's about 4kms out of town but transport is ok for me. The place looks lovely. At the other end of the budget scale you have the Anantara Hua Hin. Very upmarket and absolutely stunning to stay at. I've stayed many times at Anantara in HH and BKK Riverside. You pay for it but you get treated like royalty! Similar budget to the Anantara you have the Centara, a little closer to town.

[@SideTripLife]

@aussiesam01 Great suggestions. Would just add one of my favs PP Villa Hotel, despite older it's very clean, good pool, lovely staff, inexpensive, walk to beach, bars etc. @leonleslie, enjoy guys, so many great value hotels in HH, spoilt for choice.

[@aussiesam01]

@@SideTripLife Thanks for the suggestion STL, I must look that one up. If you're in HH during early June please let me know in this thread as I've promised you a couple of beers long ago for your very helpful advice here. Thanks!
