More Twilight Stuff Attn Alh

Khun Jean is a notorious harbinger of doom on this forum and I would advise you to disregard most of the evil she writes.

That said, twisted poisonous viewpoint aside, Martin you should spend a few weeks here and do your homework. Common sense suggests rental guarantees are built into the cost of the property at the time of purchase. There are many properties on the market so take your time and have a good look round.

Whilst the properties on the website looked quite nice, check the room sizes and there seemed to be a lack of ground floor outside covered living space, quite important in this climate.

Bang Rak is very pleasant with good bars and restaurants, convenient for the Airport and Chaweng but still fairly quiet.

Khun Jean I would love to know your story, just about everything you write is bitter and twisted. You must have had the worst experience on Samui to spend so much of your time in Farangland posting your poisonous drivel on this forum.

There must be a lot of psychologists, therapists and head shrinkers who could write a book if they could get you on a couch for a few sessions (ahem!).

1. Haven't been on the building site, so can't comment

2. Ban Rak is very near to the airport, probably the nearest part of the island to the airport

3. It's a small village, getting bigger and bigger almost by the week. Most dive boats leave from here, the Seatran leaves here and the ferry to Haad Rin pier, the Haad Rin Queen.

Loads of bars, Thai and all kind of Western restaurants, 7-11, etc, even a post office are to be found in Ban Rak.

If you hear the name Big Budda, that probably rings a bell, Ban Rak is more or less the same as Big Budda.

It's in the north of the island and a nice and relaxed area IMHO. Not too busy and near to Lotus and Chaweng and all the stuff that one can find/needs there.

That's great! Thanks very much for your insight. It's always good to get firsthand information from someone who has clearly been there. I have heard of Big Buddha.

Thanks for your help

P.S. Did I spell it wrong? Ban Rak instead of Bang Rak?

Bangrak is a good location and Limbos description is accurate.

The site however.... not so much. I've been there and that house is very ugly (IMHO). Good thing is that the show house is up, so there's no suprises. It's been there for a while and not much has happened since. So just go and take a look if you are interested.

Alh, are you telling me that, at the start of this thread, you hadn't been to the site, now apparently you have ????

How very very sad you are !!!!

Anyway, living around 100 metres from this site, i think i am qualified enough to say that, differnt to Alh's observation, there is has been construction of another 2 Villas which started around mid May !!!!
