Aleenta Hua Hin Resort & Spa Pranburi - Where Sustainability Meets Luxury

Set on the secluded shores of the Thai coast, Pranburi is 20 miles south of Hua Hin on the west side of the Gulf of Thailand, and is becoming a popular coastal alternative, as it is much less developed than other nearby resort towns. Pranburi presents a side of Thailand that American tourists do not often see, such as the Pranburi River that runs through the town and the extensive mangrove forest that is protected by Pranburi Forest Park, ideal for travelers seeking an adventurous outlet on their beach vacation.

The Aleenta Hua Hin is award-winning for sustainability, being an 87% self-sustainable resort. The property has its own 25-acre mini farm that supplies the resort with fresh and organically grown fruits and vegetables, as well as fresh eggs from the chickens on the farm. The produce is transported to the kitchen by bicycle or tuk-tuks, which are fueled by disposed cooking oil. Guests will dine on modern Thai and international fusion cuisine made by skilled chefs in the kitchen, with the freshest ingredients either grown on the onsite farm or sourced from within a 30-km radius. These fresh ingredients are also utilized in the resort’s nature-inspired Ayurah Spa, providing guests with the gentle yet effective benefits of natural and organic treatments.

The Aleenta Hua Hin Resort’s kitchens have adopted sustainable culinary techniques with their Carbon Free Cooking initiative. Food is cooked using methods based on molecular cooking to ensure minimal carbon footprint, such as slow cooking and natural techniques used with solar ovens and smoke houses. Examples of these sustainable cooking methods include burying clay pots in hot sand on the beach and solar baked cakes cooked in wooden boxes lined with foil and steamed seawater seaweed. The Aleenta Hua Hin even extends their green initiatives past the kitchen, with furniture made from reconstructed local wood and hammock netting that is handmade by local fishermen. The resort’s wastewater is recycled to irrigate the garden and the organic farm.

The Aleenta Hua Hin Resort & Spa Pranburi is paving the way for green initiatives at luxury resorts, through the integration of sustainable practices throughout all aspects of the hotel, keeping in mind both the health and wellbeing of guests and the surrounding environment.
