  1. Joint operations such as these are essential to ensuring that foreigners DONT come back to Thailand
  2. I can see from the photo that boat has 3 engines, I think they are licensed for about 55 passengers,
  3. I remember back in the days in England were TV's had a coin operated,
  4. I've seen places here in Phuket allow a certain amount of electric then after that the guest pays,
  5. After City, Brighton are the most in form team in the league and they play better football than us. Given our defensive problems and the strength of their midfield, I’m not optimistic for a United win today. Also our third game in a week and Wembley saps stamina.
  6. The guy from Napoli his buy out clause is around 40 million
  7. On Airbnb the host can select the minimum nights stay, Don't forget most Airbnb's are not hotels so one nights stays can be difficult to turn over, also more cleaning and laundry, I think 3 nights is about average
  8. I once looked into getting a solar powered swimming pool pump it was like 5 time the price of any other good brand pump,
  9. Another thing you can try which I did for a friend some years ago, He had 4 bungalows for rent and it was the same story, We put a master switch outside the door so everything went off except the fridge, Make sure you tell the guest what it's for, it did help,
  10. I'm aware of them but you have to have one that is compatible with the door lock, with that one they can leave it in and go out, The other thing I did see was door sensors that sound off an alarm when left open how good they are I don't know.
  11. There is only one sure fire way and that is to charge extra for electric, You watch the guest turn it off then, Tourist just don't get it they will have the A/C running with all the windows and doors open, I even tell them the garden doesn't need cooling down they are tropical plants. Also getting them to turn it off when they go out is another problem that is just complete waste, there is a few things you can do, install a keycard system so when they take the card out the electric goes off. These multi billion dollar A/C companies could help by designing a motion detector if no movement it goes of after 15 minutes, I did write to LG about it, No they don't have, Maintenance of the A/C unit is important but Im afraid it's not high on the agenda with Thai's as long as it's still running that's ok, Certain nationalities which I've noticed have the place like a fridge.
  12. That doesn't happen with Airbnb the guest has paid in full before arrival, When I lived in Bangkok I got my deposit back, no problem
  13. A couple staying at an Airbnb in South Korea got their own back after their host allegedly refused to cancel the booking – having left taps running and the gas on for almost a month, in turn racking up HUGE bills. The unnamed couple had booked the house in Seoul for 25 days and paid in full beforehand. However, they hadn’t checked where the property was located, and instantly got buyers’ regret. https://bit.ly/3KMM5d6
  14. How much would it cost to put a GPS tracker on your bag? Guess you could buy them on Lazada
  15. It's crazy how it all works, My daughter wanted to book flights from the UK for her and Husband and a baby was 5500 pounds, I told her to check the travel agent TUI, She ended up getting 14 nights in a 5 star hotel in Karon including breakfast and airport transfer for 3500 pounds, with the same airline,
  16. Seems like every block of shops here in Phuket a new joint is opened
