Review of Chiva Som in Hua Hin, Thailand

First off, Chiva Som is in a class by itself.  I have been there 4 times over the past few years and I have enjoyed each time.  The place has magic attached to it.  The grounds are simply amazing and the spa services are second to none in the world.  You really feel like you are being pampered at Chiva Som Fitness Retreat.  It is not just a fitness resort but also perhaps the most relaxing spa I have ever been to. 

The rooms are all great but I have always upgraded to an ocean view one bedroom.  The costs of this place is higher than most at near 1k USD per night but if that is in your budget, a week or a month here and you will come out feeling refreshed and invigorated. 

They don't have a wide variety of hard core classes but they do offer personal training if you want to go more hard core.  The swimming pool is amazing and the views from all over the resort are great.  The place is a little bit of Heaven on Earth.
