georgegeorgia Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 (edited) Well next month in April I'm going to Pattaya which I'm not happy about I prefer June July. So I'm looking at a Air bnb this time 1 month , now I did stay at Arcadia waters resort near Jomtien last time it was a 1,000 baht a night with gym pool sauna etc The private owner lived in the next apartment and was a nuisance knocking on my door to turn the lights off and Air con off But I'm looking at similar only cheaper, do you think I could get 30 days for 15k-20,000 baht with gym and pool Electric must be included,I don't want to pay separately! If you know either Pm me or write on here Maybe I should go to a real estate? Also I would like to do "challenges" this trip and STAY in the NIRUN or FLYBIRD for a week ,how do I arrange that ? I would like to see what it's like last time I walked past I was abused by shirtless drunken farangs ,but what's it like for a week?

scubascuba3 Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 Electric won't be included unless it's a hotel. Less than 20k is easy, look on Facebook marketplace and Pattaya property groups Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why don't you rent a room in a Thai place in Central Pattaya for 5500 to 8500 per month, plus another 2k for electricity and water instead of an overpriced condo? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jlcu5hg5lMQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might be here already. There's a point of diminishing returns when saving money on rent. You can pay 4500 baht per month to stay in a dump, or 6k for a more modern room in a condo like Novanna Residence: https://propertyhub.in.th/en/listings/novana-residence-studio-for-rent--9894089c---3699516 It's better to rent a nicer room and stay home for a night or two per month than to stay in a dump, and yes, the places you listed are dumps. When you're retired and willing to sign a long term lease offer to pre pay for a year and ask for a discount. Some condos sit empty for months at a time and the owners are better off giving a discount than getting zero rent at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all a matter of preference. Maybe he lives in dump in Australia, so just a lateral move. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume there are no dumps in Australia that compare to some of the buildings here. My suspicion is that the OP would like to retire a few years early and wants to test his limits for how low he can go on expenses in order to leave work sooner. If that's the case he'll want somewhere comfortable with modern amenities and the ability to cook at least some of his meals at home. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
