It’s fitting this village-like resort puts on movie nights at its lagoon pool - the property itself evokes a Hollywood film set. With little footbridges here and tranquil ponds there, you could be tricked into thinking a star of the silver screen is lurking just around the next bend in the walkway.
 
Then again, they could be. After all, the hotel has that kind of appeal. In 2007, Conde Nast Traveller (UK) magazine readers voted Anantara Resort Hua Hin one of the top 10 spa experiences in the world. In December 2009, the resort unveiled an all-new main pool, fashioned in the spirit of an ancient Roman bath. Toss in spacious, high-ceilinged suites - all of which face out onto water features - and you have the quintessential great escape.
