D0ug Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 I am thinking of moving from Gran Canaria to Thailand; Jomtien Beach to be specific. and wondered about finding a place to rent there. Would it be better to find an agent online and obtain a place through them or arrive, book in somewhere temporary and then check the places out visually? I know the agent will be charging extra on top of the normal price but what is a normal price for a studio with two ring cooker, fridge, TV, hot shower, posssibly ASDL or wi fi? Someone living there already would have gone through all the rip offs and be streetwise now and might pass onsome tips to a novice. How about it!

hanibal7 Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Best approach by far.when you arrive go to simple simon bar on soi 5 jomtien,nice rooms and good price.plus paul(the owner) will know of plenty condos to rent at reasonable price.Some decent guys in jomtien if you are staying long term and will help you out if needed. jomtien is not very busy but easy to get to pattaya. good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You said it and you are right on in my view, "book in somewhere temporary and then check the places out visually." This will give you a chance to see up close and personal what will fit your needs for now and the near future. Most online agents of just out for a quit BAHT, don't really give a dam about your needs, been there done that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
