Overview
AD Hyatt Wongamat is a striking 35-story V-shaped skyscraper completed in late 2011. Situated in the quiet residential enclave of Soi Naklua 16, it was designed to provide "Executive Living" at an accessible price point. The building's unique shape ensures that a high percentage of its 521 units enjoy unblocked, 180-degree views of the Naklua fishing village, Wongamat Beach, and Pattaya Bay.
The tower stands out in the Wongamat market as one of the most affordable high-rise options. While it sits approximately 800 meters back from the shoreline, its sheer height allows for superior vantage points compared to many lower-rise beachfront projects. It serves as a self-contained ecosystem, featuring a ground-floor commercial arcade with essentials like a minimart, restaurant, and laundry.
Developer
Developed by A.D. House Co., Ltd., a established player in the Pattaya real estate market with projects like AD Jomtien and The Twin Tower Grand Jomtien. They are known for delivering large-scale, high-utility projects that offer high value-for-money. AD Hyatt is considered their successful second venture in Pattaya, following their debut in 2008.
