Sightseeing
Be sure not to confuse Khao Tao (meaning mountain) with the island in the south of thailand. Koh Tao (‘koh’ meaning island). Situated les then 2.5 kilometres from the villa, this fishing village remains largely untouched by the waves of modernity. The biggest attractions in the area are the secluded bay, Haad Sai Noi and the large Khao Tao Temple. The temple is not something that will go unnoticed; it is difficult to ignore the huge golden Buddhas residing amid the hills, several caves and the shrine. Beside the temple is a gorgeous little fishing village where you can sit and enjoy a drink and a som tam in a local café.

Situated some 30km south of Hua Hin, Pranburi and Paknampran are fast becoming tourist destinations in their own right. For many years, they were not so favoured, either with locals or tourists, as most people stayed in Hua Hin or Ch-am.
However, Pranburi and Paknampran are now becoming popular and as a result there are a number of hotels and resorts that have sprung up in the area and more are being developed.
The beach here is not one of the area's best, but it is passable and what attracts most people is its peace and privacy.

Parks & Nature
The magnificent Phraya Nakhon Cave is one of the most mystical and mysterious landmarks of Thailand but only a few travellers get a chance to take a picture of it. The reason is simple: this gold and green pavilion is hidden inside a hard to reach cave and only a handful of dedicated visitors will do the effort to visit it. Those who do are rewarded with a stunning vision that looks like it's straight out of an Indiana Jones movie. Phraya Nakhon Cave is located in the Khao Sam Roi Yot National Park in Prachuap Khiri Khan province, a 45 minutes drive south of Hua Hin.
