Putahracsa

One of Hua Hin’s newer properties, the Putahracsa is a fine example of the sleek minimalist design for which Thailand is becoming renowned. Modern and stylish, yet retaining a true Asian feel, the Putahracsa is a refined boutique resort, ideal for those seeking contemporary luxury with a natural feel.

Located in the heart of Hua Hin itself, the Putahracsa is walking distance from the markets, restaurants and shops of this pleasant seaside town. The resort also boasts an adjacent restaurant, the Nahb Talae, a supremely stylish dining option which serves contemporary Thai cuisine including Hua Hin’s famed seafood.

The resort’s cool white two storey buildings are split into two areas. The main resort is on one side of the road and features 36 Silksand rooms as well as 8 Sansky Villas. The villas here are constructed on two floors and include a private rooftop terrace. This part of the resort has two swimming pools, the main restaurant and a smaller round restaurant where breakfast and informal meals are served. There is also a small circular spa here. Across the road lie 15 villas in an area adjacent to the beach. Again built on two floors, downstairs villas here have private pools and upstairs villas have private outdoor jacuzzis. This part of the resort has its own swimming pool and dining option.

With its stone floors, wooden furnishings and exposed brick surfaces, the Putahracsa experience is at one with nature, yet all modern luxuries have been taken care of at this intimate and chic boutique resort.
