Bangkok is the gay capital of Thailand (as well as the actual capital), but sometimes you need a weekend getaway just to chill and regroup. Thailand has a lot to offer, and here are some options:
Hua Hin – is 3 hours south of Bangkok; it’s absolute beachfront and was formerly the playground of the royal family.
Kanchanaburi – steeped in history, the famous Bridge Over the River Kwai (featured in the movie of the same name) is here. Kanchanaburi is 2 hours northwest of Bangkok and has a river and mountains vibe.
Khao Yai – a paradise for nature lovers, 3 hours north-east of Bangkok, it’s Thailand’s oldest national park. It’s the gateway to Isaan, the ‘other’ Thailand.
Pattaya – 2 hours from Bangkok, gay Pattaya is a beachside party destination. However, you can have it both ways by escaping the parties in some of the luxury resorts that surround the town.
Heading out into the provinces doesn’t mean you need to forego luxury. We will tell you about six properties that will blow your mind. Are you ready? Let’s go.

♥ A five-star oasis set in lush gardens with stunning ocean views
♥ Peaceful resort vibes just minutes walk from the centre of Pattaya
♥ Private resort beach
♥ Beachfront private pool villas
This hidden gem sits on a peaceful hill in south Pattaya overlooking the ocean, wrapped in lush trees and a beautiful cascading architectural view that makes it feel like a true getaway resort. The rooms are clean, great, and feature huge, highly comfortable beds. The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, and the breakfast buffet is delicious with massive variety. The property features three distinct pools with completely different vibes, though the rugged coastal edge means you trade a swimmable sand beach for beautiful rocky views.
I felt completely safe and at ease at this premium resort. The private, secluded nature of the property and its scenic hills make it an exceptional sanctuary where you can fully unwind and relax in complete peace.

The unique design and thematic decoration of this hotel are beautiful, but what I love the most is the raw environment. The Swan Lake area is peaceful, beautiful, and full of lush forest vibes. Exploring the vast grounds by the hotel’s golf carts is a wonderful daily highlight, and the well-trained, polite staff ensure that everything is taken care of flawlessly.
