We are coming out to lovely Hua Hin in October to take over our house, I was wondering if there are any stores or shops in Hua Hin that sell furniture (beds) or electrical goods (fridge freezers).

Moving out to Hua Hin next year, I am trying to work out what to bring with me, or will it be cheaper to buy new, once I am out there, are there any stores that have their own web sites, so that I compare prices, of washing machines, T.V.s and house hold goods in general.

I checked on the price of a kitchen while we were out there a fortnight ago and I must say they were on the expensive side. Would it be worth my while buying one here in the U.K. leave it flat packed and shipping it out there to be fitted on arrival, I must admit, I only checked out one kitchen company while we were there.

I was going to bring my car and motorcyle but I have been advised strongly not to bring them because of import tax on vehicles.

If anyone could give me any help or advise I would greatly appreciate it.

I appologise if other people have asked the same questions, but I am, as they say a newby.

Looking at purchasing a property on Tropical Hill complex. Has anyone bought or heard any things about the complex. Good things or Bad.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I have bought one of the 4 beds, 3 baths on Tropical Hill II, in fact I was lucky to get the house because they were all snapped up within weeks of going on the market. We were there last week to have a look around, although it is still looking like a messy building site, I can imagine what it will look like when it is all finished and landscaped.

While we were there we had a look around a finished house similar to the one we are buying and we were impressed by the finished product, we also had a look around another house, both these houses were occupied by two succesfull builders from the U.K. and they seemed quite happy with the finished workmanship on both the properties, perhaps Mike expects the workmanship of top quality British builders in which case you would be paying £200,000 instead of £50,000 for the properties over there. I am quite happy with the house and the price, plus the fact I have seen houses here in the U.K. in very poor condition at 5 times the price.
