华欣万豪水疗度假村 HUA HIN MARRIOTT RESORT & SPA by A49

The project included renovation work on the existing hotel as well as new buildings, the design of which sought to maintain all existing trees and greenery. Comprised of various low-rise structures, the buildings weave around existing trees and have been orientated to face the beach.

A tropical garden with the swimming pool looping around it is located in the middle of the property, with the buildings placed around it acting as a buffer that provides both privacy and tranquility. As the site stretches 300 meters from the main entrance to the beachfront, the lobby was elevated to overlook the hotel garden and pool, with an unobstructed view of the sea beyond.

Hua Hin is host to the vacation home of the Thai royal family, who often use the Spanish cherry blossom as a decorative element in their ceremonies and daily rituals. This inspiration was developed into a pattern that was then applied to shading devices and screens on the exterior fa?ades as well as interior elements such as ceiling panels.
