X2 Vibe Pattaya Seaphere has won two prestigious awards for design.

Amazing Thailand

X2 Vibe Pattaya Seaphere opens on 1 November 2017. Located on Thailand’s Eastern seaboard, the stylish resort hotel is a 90 minute drive from downtown Bangkok. Overlooking the Gulf of Thailand, the property has already won two prestigious awards for design.

X2 Vibe Pattaya Seaphere is a four-star resort hotel situated in Na Jomtien, which is a short drive from Pattaya, one of Thailand’s most popular beach resorts and the closest beach resort to Bangkok.

One of Pattaya’s key attractions for foreign tourists is its relative proximity to Bangkok’s impossible to pronounce Suvarnabhumi International Airport.

Even before its opening, the contemporary seafront property had won two major awards for its cutting-edge design and eye-catching architecture.

Developed by the Habitat Group, one of Thailand’s leading premium property developers, X2 Vibe Pattaya Seaphere won the New Small Hotel Construction and Design for Thailand award at the Asia Pacific Property Awards 2017-2018 and was highly-commended in the Best Residential Interior Design category at the Thailand Property Awards 2016.

“These awards reflect the sharp, sleek design of X2 Vibe Pattaya Seaphere, which weaves edgy urban elements seamlessly into its natural surroundings,” a press release issued by the hotel group says.

“All aspects of the property are intended to be open to nature, with an open-plan layout and use of natural materials such as wood and stone.

“All rooms feature large floor-to-ceiling windows that allow natural light to flood in, while the elevated infinity pool appears to blend seamlessly into the azure sea beyond.”

X2 Vibe has five properties in Thailand and two properties in Vietnam.
