  1. An excellent place to look for a Honda Click would be the Honda dealer, situated in Maenam, about 5 kilometers from Bo Phut. Street View HERE (click on arrow upper left map map). There are numerous possibilities for renting something in the Bo Phut area - mind you, Bo Phut is huge and includes Chaweng, but you probably think of the area close to Fisherman Village and surrounding neighborhood - but with a 5k budget, if it's baht and per month, you shall look up in the smaller sois (streets) at the land side; however 10k baht a month would be more realistic to find something of a normalle acceptable standard for foreigners. I've marked one around 10k baht per month at the map in the link HERE, there might be several possibilities both in that area and on that side om the Ring Road, the main road around the island. If it's 5k baht per day your possibilities for accommodation increases a lot, you can even find beach front pool villas when in that level... You will find lots of both negatives and positives about Samui if you check the threads in the local forum - some hater the island, and some loves it - best thing is to check it out yourself for a few weeks or a month before you settle too permanently; and don't regard the monsoon season from October till December as all year round weather condition...????
  2. The purpose of this thread is to focus on what's happening on the island, and what is open. If you wish to tell about deserted beach roads, or post Samui-rants, please start your own thread, or use one of the already opened...???? Seems like the nightlife begins to reopen Saturday 8th April... Green Mango is re-opening.
  3. I kindly suggest that we during the coronavirus pandemi period make a pinned thread with transport from/to the islands – Phangan, Tao and Samui – as the normal timetables and transports are cancelled; and when restarting, they might be only with limited departures. Lomprayah has been mentioned earlier in another thread, and the question about their 12:30 catamaran departure from Samui to Phangan, which I haven't seen, but however seemed like some passengers did make the tour. The reason could be, that there are so few passengers that it's operated by a speed boat. Here is the latest update from Lomprayah...
