X2 KUI BURI KUI BURI - HUA HIN, THAILAND |
|
Situated on eight acres of virgin beachfront on the Gulf of Thailand, the X2 Resort Kui Buri is unfussy yet luxurious, down-to-earth, yet upscale. The resort is meant to harmonize with its surroundings of undisturbed greenery and tranquil fishing villages, enabling guests to appreciate the peaceful delights of nature while simultaneously enjoying all the luxuries of resort life.
To that effect, the X2 is laid out on an open plan dotted with spacious public areas so that guests are constantly navigating around and reminded of the environment around them. Common spots include a large swimming pool, spa, “4K” fusion-cuisine restaurant, late-night bar and roof terrace overlooking the glistening Gulf waters. Winding pathways are arranged in maze-like formation so that to turn a corner is to experience an exciting, new view, and lighting throughout the resort is soft and hidden, so that everything is illuminated in a surprising, unobvious way. The twenty-three villas all come with private terrace, garden and pool, most of them directly on the beachfront with uninterrupted sea views. Villa walls are made of locally-quarried rock and stone, a design choice inspired by the seasonal appearance of sea pebbles along the local beach each winter. The result is that the structural wall of one villa appears, from its neighbour’s point of view, as a fence. Thanks to this “invisible design,” villas are private without being isolated by fences or hedges. Within, beds are positioned towards floor-to-ceiling glass doors that open onto the beach, and clean, understated furniture – predominately pale wood or sleek black, white and grey – adds to the resort’s overall atmosphere of unpretentious sophistication.
