Paradise is a personal dream of beauty and comfort, of indulgence in nature's bounties. Paradise is here at The Regent Cha-Am Beach Resort, where classic design and superb style hold a magical affinity with beautiful, white, unspoilt beaches.
The Regent Cha-Am is a unique beach resort of diverse styles and ambience, fronting a long, private shoreline on the sunrise side of the Gulf of Thailand. Elegant decor extends a gracious welcome. The staff provide impeccable yet discreet service, in the graceful and friendly manner distinctive of Thai hospitality. The town of Cha-Am, in Phetchaburi Province, is steeped in history.
It was here that one of Ayutthaya's great kings stopped over with his troops, dismounting to admire the view and clean their riding saddles — hence the resort's name derived from the Thai word cha-an, "the saddle".
Today, Cha-Am is home to a magnificent holiday retreat. Nestled in the serene surroundings of 49 hectares, The Regent
