CrossBones Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 I have a budget of about 40k a month for accomodation. I would like a nice place on the beach maybe with divers hanging out, beach bars etc. Basically not near high rise hotels . Any ideas during covid times?

ourdon Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 In Kamala, check the places just up and down from the police station. Don't know how nice, but pre covid they tended to be populated with a predominance of Europeans. Dive bars tend to be around where the dive shops/boats are. Goggle that, and look in those areas Luck mate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zzzzz Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 "Diver" who had the beachfront bar on surin decades ago, now has a bar on the main road in Kamala> plenty of small gh's on the beach in Kamala with restaurants open serving drinks 40,000 for a hotel/GH or apt/house? rooms/month are available for under 8,000 you can easily get a place way under that in Kamala 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mansell Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 No divers, but Ao Yon south beach is nice clean beach and water, minimal amount of people. And you could probably get an AirbnB right on the beach. There is the Beach Bar on the next beach looking across to the giant Buddha statue. Anybody could tell you how to get there.

KarenBravo Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 Look on Google Earth for the small, east facing beaches that are south of Chalong roundabout and north of the sea gypsy village. Usually deserted even in the high season. I have no idea of their names. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
