Short answer: For a first visit stay in Hua Hin town — near the night market, the train station and the beach, and the easiest to explore on foot. For a quieter, longer beach pick Khao Takiab to the south; for quiet luxury resorts choose the North Hua Hin/Cha-am stretch with many beachfront resorts.
