For the sort of money the last poster is talking about you can get a room guest house with all the features you don't want and have the added bonus of security for your possesions.

For even less than that you can rent an apartment !

I would suggest that when you arrive at your chosen destination you book into a guest house for the 1st night and then go hunting for the sort of place you require for far less than 500 bht a day.

yea, see i dont neccesarily need to be set up with a place, im just curious about area, like what areas in thailand will i be able to find a good place to stay near the beach or on an island or something, i dont plan on being inside anyway, so all i really need is a bed and a bathroom, a shower to would be great and what would i have to pay monthly for something like that USD anyone know?

In the southern Thailand forum someone posted about a guesthouse smack on the beach in Chumphon complete with in room wifi for 5k/month - $170, and he even left his e mail address. Plenty of superb diving right there with island options again right there. May be a decent place to start.

Check it out.

Edited to add this: Thread I refer to is titled - Would you live in Chumphon. The post I refer to is number 21 and I must admit I'm tempted to head that way myself.
