This hotel is so convenient, right at the ocean with a swimming pool on the roof! Very luxurious and the staff was very nice. There's a 7/11 next to this hotel. The breakfast cost 360 B but was very delicious. I asked for an ice tea at the coffee shop later on but the woman told me to buy it in 7/11.

Comfy and clean. Cha-am beach is in front of the hotel, just cross the road. Breakfast is quite good. Swimming pool is on second-floor. Overall is good and value for money.

About

Introduction

Cha-am is a resort town in the Phetchaburi Province located about 2 hours south of Thailand’s capital of Bangkok. Cha-am is much like its more lively neighbor, Hua Hin but much less populated, and more relaxed. Located about 20km from Hua Hin, Cha-am boasts what no other city in Thailand can: the longest shoreline stretch in Thailand at Cha-am Beach. Cha-am is especially popular with families as well as couples and friends looking for a serene and quiet beach getaway for a weekend away from Bangkok.

Cha-am tends to be more on the budget friendly spectrum compared to nearby Hua Hin, which is frequented by the royal family as well as hi-so Thais. Cha-am is more for working class families and Bangkok students. On weekends and holidays, neon-painted buses ramp up the sound system and deliver groups for enjoy the charms of Cha-am. It’s a Thai-style beach party with eating and drinking marathons with festive music in the background. Banana boats and their passengers entertain those on shore.

 

History of Cha-am

Cha-am is named for a much beloved King of Thailand, King Ayutthaya. The word “cha-am” means “the saddle” which has historical significance. The loyal soldiers of Thailand wanted to please their king, so they would stop in small fishing villages such as modern day Cha-am to take a break and polish their saddles to be absolutely immaculate. Through this simple gesture, the soldiers were paying extra homage to their king.

Cha-am was established administratively in 1897 as part of Na Yang district, which was amended to become Nong Chok in 1914.

 

Surrounding Environment

Hua Hin

Hua Hin is just a 20 or 30 minute drive from Cha-am, which sees much higher prices and a higher number of tourists. Hua Hin is famous for its seafood and the fact that the Royal Family has a vacation home there.

Bangkok

Bangkok is just a short 2 hour drive away, so if you’re getting a bit bored of the slow beach life, head over to Bangkok and get a taste of the city life for a few days. There are plenty of vans and buses that will take you there.

North of Ruamjit Road

There is a fishing village where there are shops and fishmongers to see. This is referred to by locals as the “Fishing Pier.” There are numerous options for seafood such as crab, squid, and shrimp. Phetkasem Road is another popular area with access to tourist activities such as Wat Cha-am and Khao Nang Phanturat Forest Park.

Transportation

Cha-am is quite close to Hua Hin Airport, but the easiest way to get there will be from Bangkok. Flights in and out of Hua Hin are often delayed and usually quite expensive and don’t operate nearly as much as flights from Bangkok do. Here’s our recommendation on how to get to Cha-am from Bangkok.

Train

There are two southbound trains from Hualamphong Station in Bangkok, and one from Bang Sue Junction which stops at the Cha-am train station.

Taxi

You can hail a taxi from BKK and have it take you to Hualamphong Station.

Public Transportation - take the Airport Express Link to Phaya Thai BTS. Take the BTS to Asok, then transfer to the MRT. Take the MRT to Hua Lamphong (end of the line) and that’s where the train station is.

Bus

Buses depart regularly from Bangkok to Cha-am. The hours are generally 05:00 to 22:00, and there are as many as 10 departures a day. The bus departs from Sai Tai Bus Terminal (southern bus terminal) and cost 150 THB and take about 3 hours. VIP buses will leave at the time scheduled, but regular buses will wait for enough passengers before departing.

Minivan

Minivans depart from Victory Monument BTS. Take exit no. 2 to find the minivans, you might have to go up to the ticket stand and ask which line to wait in. Cost is 160 THB and minivans usually fit 13 passengers. It’s best to get into the van early, as there are definitely seats that are more desirable than others. The ones in the back are a bit higher than the rest of the seats, so those with shorter legs may not be able to touch the floor. However, the space is also smaller so even those with longer legs will likely be uncomfortable.

Minivans depart as early as 5:00 until 20:00. Large suitcases may be charged an extra seat.

Car

You can rent a car to drive to Cha-am. Rates will vary based on season, type of car, and availability. The drive is about 2-3 hours depending on traffic.

 

Transportation in Cha-am

These are several ways to get around Cha-am:

Bicycle

Bicycle can be rented from guesthouses and hotels. Tandems and bikes are available for THB 30 per hour.

Taxi and motorbike-taxi

You’ll rarely get a metered taxi in Cha-am, so you’ll have to negotiate the fare before accepting the ride. Motorbike taxis are more convenient if you don’t have luggage, they’ll take you most places around town and the beach for 20 THB.

Rented Motorbike

Renting a motorbike is one of the best ways to explore Cha-am. You can rent them for 150-300 THB per day. Be sure to inspect the motorbike prior to accepting the rental. Most motorbike companies will require you to hand over your passport. Sometimes they’ll accept another form of ID or a cash deposit.

Bus

Buses in Cha-am only run along Phetkasem road, where most people can hop on and hop off alongside the stops in the road. There are two types of buses:

  • P1 / Por neung: blue-coloured, serves long distances. You have to buy the ticket at the counter next to 7-11 convenience store or book in advance.

  • P2 / Por song: white-and-blue or red buses, serves short distances such as Hua Hin, Tha Yang, and Phetchaburi

Travel Tips

  1. Sunscreen - most of the sunscreen sold in Thailand also contains whitening cream, much to the dismay of many a European traveler. Make sure that you read the label carefully to ensure that there’s no whitening cream in it if you wish to return home with a tan. Also, many other products have whitening cream in them as well, such as shower cream, lotion and even deodorant.

  2. ATMs - ATMs charge an average of a 200 THB fee to use them, plus whatever your bank may charge for services. Be aware that ATMs in Thailand will give you your cash first, and then the card. For those who are used to getting their card back first and then the cash, as it is in many Western places, make sure you wait for your card.

  3. Basic Thai - although much of Cha-am speaks basic English, it’s a fantastic way to show respect for Thailand when one learns a few words of basic Thai.

    1. For men, “krub” or “kap” is a polite way of ending or starting any conversation.

    2. For women, “kaaaa” is the equivalent

    3. “Mai pen rai” means “no worries” and is commonly used for minor disputes or to mean “nevermind” A common way its used by Westerners is when there’s a small amount of change on a restaurant/bar bill, to leave a small tip by saying “mai pen rai”
