I need a 2 bedroom apartment in jomtien beach or pattaya beach for 1 month at a budget of 40k baht per month from 12 Jan-12 Feb. Would this be possible? It can be a little way off the beach if theres a swimming pool in the premises.

No problem..

+1 You'll have no problem finding a short-term rental for that money

Thanks for the reply, could you suggest where I can book an apartment online? Most of the ones Ive seen rent on long term basis only (6 monthly).

Where are security companies that can install deadlocks/alarms?

You are not RADIOLA, reborn & upgraded to supreme? Merry Christmas & Happy New Year.....PF.

Nope, I would not buy a house, most of my friend's and their expensive homes got burglarized, some several times....

Again in English please

Maybe try them, they have various units, not sure any vacant: http://www.diana-estate.com/luxury-23-bedroom-condo-private-rental.html

I think that as you say a 2 bedroom apartment it may not be that easy. A 2 bedroom house on estate with pool would be easy, 1 bedroom apartment again easy, 2 bedroom I believe a little more difficult to find.

Best of luck.

The request tweaked my interest and I ended up finding this

Indeed. Decent 2-bed condos are not so common. One good thing about wanting a larger place is that the older buildings tend to have them whereas the newer ones dont. And older buildings are usually the nicest to live in, in my opinion.

In my search for a good 2-room (not 2-bedroom) apartment in September-October, I checked many supermarket notice boards. At your budget level, you could rent a bloody 4-bedroom estate, from what I saw. I don't think anyone seeking long-term tenants would refuse you for a month at 40,000. Or 30,000, for that matter. I would say stay at a hotel for a couple of days and check the supermarkets. Friendship, Villa, TOPs, Big C and Foodland all have rental notice boards.

You are right about 2-room condos, but such condos are usually 1-bed units made up from 2 studios and are pretty common. Condos with 2 bedrooms plus living room, kitchen etc are somewhat rarer, except in the older buildings where they are quite common (and not very easy to rent out, it seems).

Certainly anyone looking for a 2-bed unit will probably pay much less per sqm than someone looking for a studio or 1-bed unit.

Thanks for all the advise. I'm still looking, have emailed all the links. Most of the 2 bedroom apartments I'm finding online are 60000 upwards, but I guess these are serviced apartments, more like hotels. I'm waiting for replies from others.
