Park Nai Lert Hua Hin is located in the seaside resort town of Hua Hin, Prachuap Khiri Khan Province, on a site rich in its own unique historical narrative.
At the heart of the property stands a former colonial-style beachfront residence, which has been thoughtfully restored into a charming restaurant.
This building serves as the conceptual anchor for the entire development—symbolizing a deliberate effort to connect the "past" with the "present" through
architectural design that respects the local context and the story of the original place.
Hua Hin has long been intertwined with colonial-era architecture, dating back to the reign of King Rama V, when European influences began to shape
the area’s identity through palaces, train stations, and coastal vacation homes. Thus, the design of this project goes beyond simply creating a tourist
destination; it aims to embody the genius loci, or “spirit of the place,” through a contemporary lens. The architecture throughout the project blends modern
simplicity with the refined lines of traditional colonial design. Smooth plastered walls in soft tones are paired with timber louver screens, rhythmically
arranged to create dynamic patterns of light and shadow that shift throughout the day. These screens not only provide sun shading and natural ventilation but
also contribute to the overall sense of comfort. Guest room verandas are designed to be airy and open, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor spaces
while apturing breezes from the sea—enhancing the experience of coolness and tranquility throughout the day.
Each guest room is equipped with a private jacuzzi, surrounded by lush plantings and living green fences, carefully arranged to ensure maximum privacy.
Rather than feeling like a typical hotel stay, the experience is intended to evoke the atmosphere of a private seaside retreat. The boundaries of the property
are not rigidly enclosed, but instead visually open—allowing the eyes and the emotions to freely connect with the surrounding environment.
The original beachfront house has been transformed into the main restaurant and reception area of the project. While most of its original architectural
structure has been preserved, contemporary details have been thoughtfully integrated. This space is not only the physical and social center of the project, but
also its emotional core—a place where "history continues to breathe" amid the rhythms of the present.
