Once the private residence of the resort site’s original landowner, this Thai-Victorian architectural wonder is the one of the largest stand-alone villas on the Gulf of Thailand. Inspired by Hua Hin’s own Royal Mrigadayavan Palace (Summer Palace), built in the 1920s for King Rama VI, it is set on meticulously landscaped grounds with a private entrance. The two-story La Residence at InterContinental Hua Hin Resort is spread over a decadent 1,071 sqm (11,528 sqft) of pure exclusivity. The layout includes three sumptuous bedrooms, two living rooms – one on each floor – two dining rooms, a fully equipped kitchen, and an expansive upstairs balcony offering sweeping views of the Gulf of Thailand. Additional features and amenities include a private infinity-edge pool, large and secluded gardens ideal for intimate gatherings, and direct beach access. The La Residence is indeed considered the ultimate expression of ocean-front living.
Every detail has been thoughtfully restored to honour its noble legacy, from the intricate design accents to the overall “Hua Hin Colonial” aesthetic that captures the sophistication of a bygone era. The expansive private garden offers a serene setting for memorable celebrations, including weddings and exclusive gatherings, all just steps from the beach. Guests of La Residence enjoy elevated privileges including Club InterContinental, where all day snacks, afternoon tea and evening cocktails await in a refined lounge setting.
