Tourist Mode ON!! Two week update in Hua Hin, Thailand

Over the past 2 weeks we moved into a bigger apartment on the beach, explored a mountain with views of Hua Hin with plenty of cheeky monkeys, visited Pineapple valley golf course so Aaron could work on his golf swing, went on a tour of an animal rescue centre and explored the night life.
Please note that the elephants in the video were rescued from working in logging and tourism and now live on a large nature reserve. Whilst it looks like they were living in a fenced yard, this is just where they are fed before returning to the vast nature reserve. The visitors to the Wildlife Friends Foundation Thailand (WFFT) do not touch the elephants and the purpose of the tour is to educate visitors of the horrible conditions the elephants (and many other animals) once lived in and to spread the word to not support animal tourism (i.e. riding elephants or bathing them). For more information please visit www.wfft.org/.

Hi…. It looks like you’re familiar with Marakesh Condos…. What do you think? We’re staying there in February. I like the location near the markets and BluPort Mall, and of course the beach!

@@karleichstaedt8024 hi there! It’s fantastic. Our 1 bedroom apartment is very spacious with large kitchen, large lounge and large bathroom! We love spending time in the pool, or the grass area and beach access is so nice. In this video the ocean was a bit rough, but it’s usually calm and beautiful! We can walk to BluPort and the markets easily. 7/11 and tops are close. We often catch the songthaeu bus to Market Village. We are quiet close to the road so have to have doors and windows closed, can be a little noisy at night watching tv but we love everything else. Hope you enjoy!

Thank you for the reply! We’re looking forward to returning to Thailand next month. Last year we spent time in the Ao Manao area by Wing Five air base, as well as a month in beautiful Sam Roi Yot ( in addition to Bangkok, Hua Hin, and Hat Yai). We stayed at the Veranda Lodge and Hua Hin Star last year in Hua Hin ( both were great!).
