Chiva-Som Hua Hin

The uniqueness of Chiva-Som lies not only in its intuitive understanding of holistic luxury, but also in its preservation of culture and the environment at Thailand's traditional beach resort of Hua-Hin. Sustainability is a priority despite the resort's expansiveness: for example, it has its own water filtration plant and projects to preserve the area's last mangrove forest. At the spa, guests can expect a wealth of top-notch health, fitness and beauty options overseen by experts, from weight management and Muay Thai fitness to massages, soul-searching, and medical therapies. For example, the Medi-Spa also offers Botox, laser facial peels and skin tightening treatments. But one of Chiva-Som's greatest strengths is its sports injury clinic, which offers excellent physical therapy. Shining in new splendour since the 2019 renovation is the gym, which has been expanded with muscle and flexibility measurement equipment, an EMS system for joint-sparing workouts, and a Watsu pool as well as aquatic therapy suites. But no matter where you stay at Chiva-Som: the resort exudes an intoxicating zen atmosphere of understated elegance.
