Stayed for 7 days and 6 nights at the holiday inn Vana Nava. 3 things that stood out for me during this stay.
1) attention to detail The sea views are lovely- waking up to the sunrise each morning was wonderful in itself. The hotel took note that i was celebrating my wife’s birthday and prepared a complimentary cake in my room when I checked in. There was a personalized welcome card signed by the manager. There were also Welcome fruits and sweets. The reception noted that I was an IHG member and informed me about the various amenities I could access during my stay. Josie keeping took note of the bottles of water I consumed and added more water each day for the duration of my stay. All these attention to detail adds up. In all my stays at IHG properties, the Vana nana stands out in this regard
2) value It combines resort amenities(kids club, games room, pool and spa) and a water theme park. It’s a great place to be when you’re a family with kids like mine and the young ones need to be occupied. the beach is a 10 minute walk away and you have access to various cafes and eateries within a 5-10 minute drive away or by using the hotel’s free shuttle service. I find that the holiday inn Vana Nava offers great value for what it offers
3) seamless experiences for guests accessing the water park My family had a great time at the water park during our stay. The idea of using the same access device(a wearable watch) that one can use to access the room and the theme park makes for a seamless experience- well done!
The location of the hotel in hua hin means you’ll need to endure a 3.5-4 hour airport transfer from bangkok. It also does mean that it’s less crowded compared to other beaches in phuket and pattaya. I would highly recommend a stay at the holiday inn Vana Nava for a fuss free getaway for families with young children.

A lot to digest? Read an AI-generated summary of recent traveller reviews.
Everything is great, the only drawback is that sometimes you can hear the train passing by, but it's not very loud. It is recommended that bath towels be backed up and provided quickly in the swimming pool. We came up from the swimming pool in the afternoon because the swimming pool is located on the 26th floor and the wind is very cold, so bath towels cannot be provided immediately.

Dear _H7457OE, Greetings from Holiday Inn Vana Nava Hua Hin! Thank you for your positive feedback and for taking the time to share your experience with us. We’re glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay overall. We appreciate your suggestion regarding the bath towels at the swimming pool. We understand how important it is to have them readily available, especially with the cool breeze on the 26th floor. We will work on improving this service to ensure that towels are provided promptly to our guests. It is correct that a train passes nearby our resort however the service is not very frequent and stops during night time. Should a guest still feel disturbed by it, we are happy to provide alternative room arrangements. Hopefully, you also had the chance to visit our Tea Tree Spa on the 6th floor where we offer a wide variety of treatments at reasonable prices! Thanks again for your feedback and we hope to welcome you back soon. Best Regards, Your Holiday Inn Vana Nava Hua Hin Team

Impossible to fault. From the moment you arrive you know you are in for a treat or two. The friendliest of staff starts the ball rolling. Follow that by a luxurious room which was clean and spacious. Plenty of facilities at the Resort for all ages and our 4 year old loved the Bryde's Kids Club. Breakfast had to be seen to be believed!! Never seen so much choice catering for all tastes. Amazing! Location was very good and to save having to drive into town or Cicada, the Resort soon rustled you up a taxi which was cheap enough. Then across the road there is the Water Park for which you get courtesy entrance via your wristband. A good way to wile away a few hours no matter if you are young or old. This has to be one of the best Resorts we have ever stopped at. Thank you for a great time and good memories. We will be back!!

I had an amazing experience at Holiday Inn Resort Vana Nava. Upon check-in, there was an attendant that helped us with the luggage bags and ushered us to the lobby for check-in. Staff were very friendly and courteous. We were given complimentary drinks as well but we didn't have the time to claim the drinks. The best part that i liked in the unlimited access to the water park which is very value adding especially if you come with kids, the rides were a good combination, which cater for both adults and children. Each room is given free tokens for use in the waterpark or the gaming room. The buffet spread was good and the Bryde's kids club was really good, with both indoor and outdoor activities for the kids ranging from mini football, video games, toys, drawing, balloon pool and slides. The baby sitters were very responsible too ensuring only the parents can pick up their kids, which gives assurance for parents who leave their kids there. Overall i love the stay, the only thing that i dont like is the location though, as it is faraway from the commercial area but they offer free shuttle service which is great.

I had a very positive experience during a family vacation at this HI which is my first stay at HI in Thailand.
The Reception Reps particularly Belle, Champ, and Pear were amazing at answering questions, scheduling shuttles to town, and pre-booking private transportation to BKK. Special shoutout to Belle who was so kind to switch our room when we arrived late evening, and we and we found out there was a confusion in the booking. The Concierge Reps were also very customer friendly and super helpful.
If you are traveling with young kids, the HI Vana Nava Water Park can be a fun activity for the entire family. And the children will likely enjoy the Arcade and the Kids Club, and all entries to these venues are free to HI guests except food and drink.
The only reason I did not rate this hotel 5 stars is because breakfast does not come with the reservation but the breakfast time (630am-11am) was perfect and this hotel has the best coffees(latte, cappuccino, black coffee, Americano,etc.) compared to many hotels I stayed at, and they have many complimentary services. I will definitely recommend this hotel to other travelers to Hua Hin.

Very good quality hotel. Don’t let the name prejudice your decision. Adequately sized rooms, great views of the sea m, and very good quality bed and linens for a quality nights sleep. The hotel is not near the beach, but we didn’t come for the beach, we came for the water park next door. Entry to the water park is included but be warned, wear a UV t-shirt as you WILL get sunburnt despite all the water. Even only after a 2 hour stay. The Hotel has a SkyBar where the views are stunning and a 15x6 metre overhanging glass floored platform which plays games on your mind as you can see straight down the hotel facade onto the entrance where you can’t help but visualise your demise!! We ordered room service a few times so the food is good quality. The cocktails are a descent size and so you don’t end up ordering too many out of thirst. We did not have breakfast at the hotel as we tend to wake up late, but also it was decided that we would have brunch as a family locally at one of the good quality Thai cafes where the prices for a group of 6 of us ordered 10-12 dishes at a far cheaper cost than the option of breakfast per head. (The high cost of breakfast for 2 will add 30% onto the room cost, which for Thailand i find unreasonable and my only negative point for this hotel) Ofcourse if you want convenience, then have breakfast in the hotel. The hotel has a kids club which was very useful as we had a very energetic 4 year ofd who just would not stop flying around, and this was a great area for her to get rid of some of that energy. The rooftop pool is also very beautiful and there is a mini wet slide covered pool area for kids.

Generally excellent experience and we all loved it. Main comment would be that the operations could be made more environmentally friendly. The air is running full blast ahead of our checking in and even after deliberately turning the air off when we left the room, staff turned it back on again. Please consider our planet!

Clean hotel and friendly staff. The price of the room includes the use of the adjacent water park (on the day of arrival you can enter as soon as it opens at 11:00 and on the day of departure you can stay until closing). The breakfast is good and the family rooms are comfortable.

Overall, the most memorable stay we've ever had in quite a long time. This was a third time we visited this hotel. Let me explain.
The first time it was very good, good enough to let us decided to repeat our stay.
The second time was not so great due to some large group of guest and lack of group management by the hotel. So we did give them a proper complaint about how bad it was handled and how it was affected our stay.
This time, the third one during the pandemic, we decided to gave them another shot because our kids still love the activities around the hotel. The hotel recognized us right away after booking and gave us a head start that, unfortunately, we will stay with a large group of guest again, it was 200 rooms or around 400 guest or more. But the hotel promised that it will be handled professionally this time. My expectation was lifted.
Upon arrival, and most surprising to the kids, they upgraded us to the kid's suite room which have bunk bed in separate "kid's corner" for the whole stay. Front desk staff was very helpful with our booking and payment method, which quite complicated this time, with a very friendly and professionally manner.
Parking space was managed quite well for all guest.
Cleaner staff of the floor tend to us very pleasantly. They gave us a "Soft" pillow for our little ones, gave us some extra bottled waters without our request.
Breakfast was scheduled by timely manner (1 hour) as COVID-19 counter measure. Works quite well to maintain distance around large group of hungry people. Guest in group got a separate section of the room, so they don't mixed up with another guest.
Water Park wise, some broken equipments from last time got fixed and open to use. Lifeguard was great, strict but not overly strict, helpful in some situation. Large group of guest got their own party time since early evening in the park, so they didn't bother to play during the day that much.
We got numerous calls and emails from management about our stay and how they can improve our satisfaction. Thank you for your attention to details and "listened" to your customer.
You guys did a marvelous job this time. We are impressed and will be back again for more. 👍👍👍
