Where is the most desirable place to live in Thailand currently?

[Natai Beach]

I first came to Thailand in the 1970s

Been living here for over a decade. 
two years ago I decided to find the best place in Thailand and move there.

I searched and searched. I wanted clean air, a clean beach, clean streets, no high rise, nature but still with amenities.

 

I found it. Natai Beach in Phangnga province. Only 30 minutes from Phuket Airport.

The local town (Khok Kloy) is inland 3 kilometers, so you don’t have all the local businesses spoiling the beach area. 
There is a little town Khao Pilai with about 50 local houses at one end, but basically it is just high end resorts and villas here. 

 

This is where the hiso thais like to holiday, last week I walked past superstar Chompoo who was down for the weekend staying at Baba Beach club, which is just a short stroll from my house. The kings oldest sister holidays down here also. 
 

The local orbortor actively keeps it all spick and span and the locals are also aware of disposing their rubbish responsibly. Nearly all the take away shops use cardboard containers and not foam after a directive from the mayor. 
 

It’s nickname is Billionaire Beach. I won’t name drop, but the richest Thai families have houses along the Beach.

Some photos of me hanging out with the rich and famous on Natai Beach above.

it also has surfable waves 6 months of the year.
 

If anyone can find better, let me know, and I will move there. Not only the best place in Thailand, Natai Beach is the best place on earth.

I have been surprised more than once who manage more than one sponsor at the same time. Translated some e-mails for a 55 year old woman back in the days, and she was still going strong.

and i was surprised more than once when the lovely lass i was with put her finger over her mouth 

as we were frollicking the time away.        

with time the "surprise" factor becomes more a realization of the reality.   

darling to sponsor "  I miss you too mutt, !  "

Now that all the tourist areas have become ghost towns, where would be the most desirable place to live in 2021?

My vote would for most desirable would be to board yourself into a brewery with 20 go-go dancers - unfortunately I doubt my wife would go along with it

For just 2021? 

yes, and post-covid

 

I used to spend a month a year in Samui but that's obviously not an option anymore... 

[Poet]

Avoid the north during this half of the year, and be sure to check the air quality of anywhere else you are considering.

however I can understand it, and as one  said, you are not married before you are married, and still allowed to get some taste of life.

Samui is the best its ever been unless you are poor and/or love tourists.  Everything is much cleaner, infrastructure is improving, and plenty of restaurants are still open.  I have been here for seventeen years and it's wonderful right now.

I know that, so Im in Isan for the moment. No covid locally here, and can live normal. 

[Scottie12]

Depends what you’re looking for, my wife and I are in Laguna and there are quite a few bars and restaurants  open in Cherng Talay , also, Phuket is the safest place in Thailand from a COVID point of view.
