Jag blev inspirerad av inlägget som @Rickard_O skrev innehållande en bild från Hua Hin och drog mig till minnes ett inlägg jag gjorde för några år sedan i ett helt annat forum. Inlägget är som sagt några år gammalt, men jag tror det i huvudsak är någorlunda relevanta fortfarande. Jag hoppas någon kan hitta lite inspiration från mina förslag.
This post is a re-post from the old forum. I think and hope most of it's still valid.
These are a few of my personal favourites, in absolutely no particular order, when trying to answer the question: What should I see and where should I eat in Hua Hin, Thailand?
Have dinner at Cool Breeze in the city centre, a Spanish tapas restaurant with great food. Maybe 1500 THB for two people.

Enjoy a luxurious day at Anantasila Hotel in Kao Takiab. You pay 500 THB per person for a sun bed on the beach with a huge towel. You can use the facilities at the hotel, swim in the pool and order food for the total amount. When we go there, two people, and eat what we like, the total cost is usually just over 1000 THB for the two of us. If you order wine or cocktails, the bill could, of course, be much worse.

Go shopping in the according to me best mall in town, Market Village.
maps.app.goo.gl/CzsV1HYQQdx2ifxLA
Visit a genuine Thai market, not focused on tourists. Huana Market.

Go to the beach where the Thai people go. Suan Son Pradipat Beach.
maps.app.goo.gl/DeeKifpvq4BrUBQz8
Have dinner at Ban Khun Por Foodcourt. The price of a dish starts with a few THB. A big Chang was 65 THB on my last visit, if I remember correctly. The music can be loud! Don't sit close to the stage if you don't appreciate that.

Have a drink in the rooftop bar at the Hilton hotel in the city centre.

If you prefer a glass floor, go to Holiday Inn for your rooftop drink.

The water park Vana Nava Water Jungle can be fun, even for adults. It can be a little expensive if you don't enjoy all the scary rides.

If you have a death wish, feed the monkeys at the "Monkey Mountain". They used to be cute; these days, they are mostly scary. I don't think I will ever go there again.

Listen to live music at the rock club, El Toro Loco. The band usually starts playing sometimes after eight in the evening. They serve food and different kinds of drinks.

In Hua Hin, I would say that every visitor should visit one of the classic piers for food at least once. The piers risk extinction, so the time for a visit might be limited. May I recommend the Rock Lobster Thermidor at Ketsarin, the longest restaurant pier in Hua Hin. The price for this dish is around 500 THB, but there are many cheaper dishes, so the place is very affordable if you are on a budget and order wisely. If you instead decide to feast on loads of real hummer, the bill could cost you an arm and a leg.

Close to the restaurant piers and Hua Hin Fishing Pier is the Italian restaurant Mamma Mia - Cucina Italiana & Pizza. There's a great sea view from the front of the terrace on the third floor. Good food and decent prices.

Another good Italian restaurant is Trattoria by Andreas, run by the well-known chef Andreas Bonifacio. Great food, and the bill could be whatever you like, depending on what you eat and drink.

If you get sick and tired of the long, shallow beaches around Hua Hin, I recommend a visit to Sai Noi Beach in Kao Thao. This beach is a small gem located 14 km south of the Clock Tower. On the beach, you can rent a sunbed and have cheap food. If you're looking for something fancier, I recommend Kiss Cafe & Beach Cuisine. This place was called Sanae Beach Club a few years ago. In this establishment, you can use sun beds and two pools as long as you pay for your visit by ordering food and drinks. It used to be a daily fee, but on my last few visits, ordering some food was all they required for using their facilities. More expensive than the Thai food on the beach, but still very decent prices.

If you like nightlife in bars and maybe with bar girls, there are at least three main areas to consider:
The Bintabaht area in the city centre:
maps.app.goo.gl/KrzhQc7J9a5yizgs6
Soi 80, or Soi Bacteria as some call the street:
maps.app.goo.gl/hBJB3mqjygQ7CjAw9
Soi 94 area, with, for example, WonderLand and all bars on the street down to Ban Khun Por Foodcourt:
maps.app.goo.gl/SLeGbh7oyA8k3TLq6
From the Khao Hin Lek Fai Viewpoint, you can get a great view of Hua Hin from six different viewpoints. It's been a few years since I visited, but some say there are a lot of monkeys nowadays, so keep your belongings close. Did I say I'm not a fan of monkeys?
maps.app.goo.gl/ERYQtg7asJciU48Y6
If you prefer a good pool instead of the beach, I can recommend Hua Hin Sportcenter 94. It's open daily, with a nice, large pool and a small gym. The entrance fee is 50 THB per day for the pool or the gym, or 100 THB for both. You can get a monthly membership for 500 THB for the pool or gym, or 1000 THB for both. There's a good restaurant there with both Thai and Western dishes. The prices are very decent! Their speciality is "Swedish Husmanskost", but I promise there's a dish there for everyone! The place can be busy in the high season, but usually I can almost guarantee that you can find a sunbed to your liking. The place is very laid back with a friendly atmosphere. Some go there for daily exercise, and some only go there for a Chang and some food in the sun.
