It was not long ago that the average Hua Hin property project consisted of an everyday piece of land, some 1990s-looking 3D perspectives and a management organisation (from investors through salespersons) without a firm background within the real estate market. However, the last few years’ unprecedented growth has seen fundamental changes in this respect. The “mega”-size development of Manor Park is a telling example.

Within the next five-or-so years, some 450 apartments will be built on Hua Hin Soi 102 in the form of a 5-star resort. The altogether 37-rai development area will also include a club house complex covering 7.5 rais with swimming pools, fitness centers, tennis courts, restaurants and other high-end amenities. Furthermore, Manor Park will boast Hua Hin’s first open-air nightclub as well as conference center. Consequently, even if not incorporating a golf course along the lines of Black Mountain and Banyan, Manor Park proudly joins the recent trend of Hua Hin “mega” projects.
In charge of the management team is Sam Sheriff, besides the Sales Director of Brittle Star Resorts having a 25-year track record in the Thai hospitality industry, including a number of fully-owned resorts in Hua Hin. With an Indian origin, Sam came to Thailand some 10.5 years ago — after having “transited” his professional career in such a wide variety of countries as England, Qatar, South Africa, Dubai and Russia. Before embarking on the Manor Park project, Sam managed the sales organisation of the Baan Thai Village developments, Baan Talay Samran in Cha-Am and Baan Hansa — the last beachfront high-rise in the Hua Hin area with the 46 units sold in less than three days!_edit.jpg)
So why purchase a Manor Park condo on Soi 102, a number of kilometers away from both the city center and the beach? Sam first and foremost stresses the unique opportunity of investing in a 5-star resort with a 7% guaranteed yearly rental return and the largest selection of facilities and common areas so far in Hua Hin. As far as Soi 102 goes, it has in fact become THE foreign street of Hua Hin with several thousands of foreigners now residing there for most parts of the year.
Manor Park has been divided into three phases of which the first contains 112 condo units to be complete in March 2010 — which also holds true for the open-air nightclub. If you are interested in viewing the show unit, or the club house construction that has just started, you can reach Sam at the sales office on 54 Dechanuchit Road or by calling +66-(0)32-531 525.
