Do what you normally do.....

If you are sensible...... Your safety here is no different from your safety anywhere.....

And HH is far safer than many other parts of the world......

Enjoy....

Plenty of other things for you to drink Breezers Spy Coolers etc no worries there.
Hua Hin is very safe in my opinion but not without the odd incident but as far as Thai tourist resorts go its good more of a family resort that,as I have already said its not to in yer face but plenty of fun can be found if you want it.
If you want to meet the worst of Thais and a lot of unsavoury farangs then Pattaya would be more for you it's very hedonistic and not the relaxing holiday you where seeking.

Wine then my man.

Most places are OK for spirits so don't be too paranoid about getting drugged. It does happen but not very frequently and usually only in suspect bars with ladyboys running rampantly wild in them etc., plus you are probably OK in HH generally.

Most places will let you take your own bottle in and just buy mixers anyhow, so can go down that route too.

Yes, but remember my problem there about 2 years ago, I think as said above go over to the bottle mixers.
But generally safe. I may have just been in the wrong place at the wrong time and I was alone when knocked so to speak :(

Do you drink scotch? This stuff is not bad considering what they sell it for:
