Hi there,

we are visiting Rayong during October this year.

My wife is Thai and she has family there.

We are wellcome to stay with the sister and family but I like my own space.

So I am looking for somewhere to stay for a week or so in Rayong.

I look for a balcony and the usual farang comforts but dont need waiting on or any service.

We have stayed at PMY resort and I loved it there but it was a little expensive and it is quite far from everything.

I am just looking for a reasonably comfortable place that I can maybe walk to get a coffee and some farang food while the wife does what she has to do with the sister. A place to have a beer wouldnt be a bad thing either.

Does anyone know of such a place?

Any sugestions will be welcomed and thanks in advance.

President Hotel about 600 baht, comfortable, off Sukhumvit, a few hundred metres from Star plaza, market, farang bar and serves a good breakfast.

Also Lanna Hotel (new) in the 'old' road, maybe more expensive but close to lots of clubs and bars.

Based on your requests, I would suggest Kameo House. It is the newest hotel in Rayong on Sukhmvit. It has a great rooftop pool.

5 minute walk to.....

Sabai Sabai-Good German restaurant

Maiganam1-Good Thai restaurant with English menu and sports on tv

Hat Mae Rumpung Beach - between Rayong and Ban Phe (jumping off point for Koh Samet)

I have stayed at the Condotel - now called Rayong Beach Hotel which has both beach and mountain facing rooms plus swimming pool. www.rayongbeachhotel.com

There are many beach seafood restaurants plus a few western ones. Depending on your preference for night life, you may find it quiet. But there are a few Western reastaurants within walking distance.
