Jomtien or Pataya

[Fasteddy 0]

HI All,

Would like some opinions on a decision I happily have to make.

I have been to Pattaya 5 to 6 times staying at Sabai and Acrea to name a few.

Out here again end Feb for golf and I have been offered free the use of a apartment

150sq m,18th floor beach front in Jomtien.All mod cons ect, Now Jomtien is for

me a bit out of the way regarding travel, bars, ect.Also , what's the deal with bringing

back guests, there is 24 hr security ect,and the place is pretty resident orientated.

 

 

So do I do the usual and get a hotel in town......or hotel for a few days find a girl and

then move to the apartment......ideas.........

I would take up the offer right away! Jomtien's beach front is really far away from Pattaya in my experience -- just a baht bus. Anyway, I am sure the girl you choose will be completely impressed by the digs.

A couple of years ago I was looking for somewhere new to live and considered Jomtien. I initially thought it was too far away but if you are on the baht bus route or near one, you can (on a good run) get from South Pattaya to Jomtien in 10 miinutes.

 

I've lived in View Talay for 18 months or so and really like it. I am not bothered that even on a bad day it might take me 10 or 20 minutes longer than usual. I'd go for the offer you've been made and I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. As for bringing people back, you have no problems. It is effectively your home and no-one else's business.
