Thai Views | Wat Khao Takiap: Though I have been living in the Asia for about 8 years and with a majority of Asian nations being predominantly Buddhist, I have never truly looked into the practice. Sure, I’m vaguely familiar with the meditation and enlightenment aspect of it but that has been the limits of my knowledge. Recently I have decided to take a deeper look at the practice and in turn a deeper look into myself.
.
At the core of Buddhism are The four Noble Truths, the first of which being that in life there is suffering. However the teachings guides you through the reasons for suffering and how to end suffering. One major cause to human suffering is our desire, craving such things as material goods and then leading to our attachment to them. With this identified one can choose to crave less and understand that the only thing permanent in life is impermanence. All that we have now will not last forever so why get attached to them when they will only cause us suffering when they are gone. I’m not talking on a superficial level that is only thought about in times of crisis but on a day to day basis.
.
Looking at this monk walking on the beach at the crack of dawn in only a robe and without shoes, I get it now. I don’t think I could be as disciplined as this but I got to start somewhere.

Top Khao Takiab Hotel Reviews

The Yana Villas Hua Hin

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was perfect. We had Villa 2 with a private pool and rooftop with a lounge. The villa was huge and closest to the beach and restaurant. Staff were all so nice and welcoming and we really loved the security guard who looked after our bikes and everyone’s cars. I’ve never seen shoes polished so perfectly every day. He should be highly commended for his respect and professionalism as well as kindness! Food was all fantastic as well as the cocktails and wine. Will definitely be back and stay longer than 6 nights. It just so relaxing. "

Kiang Haad Beach Hua Hin

10/10 Excellent

"The Hotel was in the perfect spot to stay in central Hua Hin- close to the Market Village, a very short walk down a lane to the best part of the beach with all the food, coffee and bars. Easy access for Grabs and drivers. Friendly, pleasant staff. The rooftop pool has a nice atmosphere, quiet and not overstated. The staff are attentive with drink and food orders here. Room was cleaned daily with fresh towels provided. Highly recommend for a simple, immersive stay in Hua Hin. "

Abobe ApartHotel Hua Hin

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location, beach is literally across the road with all conveniences within a moments walk away. Matt and his staff were very accomodating and helpful throughout our stay. If you are visiting HuaHin and want a nice chilled stay away from the noise of the city, i would definitely recommend Abode Apartments."

Hyatt Regency Hua Hin

10/10 Excellent

"This property was in the middle of Hua Hin, but the foliage of the property made it feel like you were on an isolated island. Wonderful beach access and just a really short walk to the Cicada weekend night market. Beds were comfortable. We did have ants in our room, but they were really quick to accommodate a room change. Property seems to be very well managed with a really nice staff. "

VERSO Hua Hin - a Veranda Collection

10/10 Excellent

"i cannot say one bad thing about this hotel. it is one of the best hotels we have ever stayed at. it is situated right on the beach next to monkey mountain. if you get up and be down at the beach by 6:15 am and watch the performance put on by the monkeys. it is really something to see. the hotel is situated 100 yards from the pickup taxi station. cost 20 baht to go pretty much anywhere along the main strip down to the night market. Tuk Tuk back to the hotel at the end of the day cost 200 baht and is quicker. you can tell ownership and staff really care as they are always maintaining different parts of the hotel. money is being put back into this hotel to keep it looking really nice and new. rooms are good size. housekeeping does an awesome job. 3 nice pools. someone in another post said there was no shade, there is you just have to keep moving your umbrella. breakfast buffet was pretty good with a good variety. shout out to all the staff there, always smiling and saying hi."
