Hua Hin Forum

Dude, stop waffling, rent a place for a few months and see if it's the place is for you or not. Do the same in Jomtien or Phuket and then you can make up your own mind instead of hashing and rehashing the same things. It's not like you're getting married to the place, you can leave anytime... You ma...

I've stayed in several places(the last two were G House and Putahracsa) in Hua Hin and they all had fairly good and reliable wi fi connection 24 hours. Unfortunately, I haven't yet stayed at the sports villa but I might give them a try in August/September this year as I am looking for a place with a...

I have never had a bad case of the runs in Thailand and I've been coming here for well over 20 years. I've cycled through many places from north to South and East to West most of the time eating in small stalls and night market with Pad thais at 10 baht, khao pad at 30 baht and satays at less than 1...

Interesting points of views... I for one love being in different countries. I don't think Thailand is any better or worse that Europe or North America and I enjoy what each places has to offer and miss a bit of what each of them lack. Whether it's the cheap falafels of Syria, the clean crisp mountai...

Mmm, I'm not sure where you got your data for these kinds of increase in real estate. Typically, the studies seem to indicate a return slightly better than inflation. With your numbers, a house worth 50 000 in 1970 would be worth around 700 000 dollars today. Then you have to take into account the d...

It's a very simplistic approach to say that you "lose" money every month when you pay rent. It's an excellent point that good research needs to be made before purchasing a property. What needs to be looked at is whether you can make more profit from the amount you sink into a house then wh...

I pity the fool who needs a gun to feel safe...

Wow you're a better man than me, I would have walked off for sure... I draw the line at 5 hours.

Letting people go through is of course the correct thing to do if the course is not full but it's not practical when it is... I have played with people of all level and playing at a decent pace simply means doing the right things and not diddle around for 10 minutes looking for every ball you lose a...

A twosome or a single should easily play a round in three hours without rushing especially with a cart. The problem in Thailand is that you never know what's in front of you... Slow play is the thing that annoys me the most about golf in Thailand... Groups of five and six meandering around the cours...

The current political situation in Thailand certainly doesn't inspire confidence nor is the world economy. It is possible that one can make a great profit when the market is depressed. Those that bought property in HK during SARS and sold last year are laughing it up. Those that bought shares in &qu...

Have fun

Agreed! Sounds like BS to me... Guess we'll never know since I have no interest to find out

Wow... You want to try to make money from something you seem to know very little about in a time of crisis where land is more likely to lose value than gain it. Thailand is in a middle of a political crisis that will most likely see many tourists shun the country. Developers are not likely to be buy...

I think it's somewhat funny to hear about riding bikes being dangerous in Thailand... I've ridden from Singapore to Luang Prabang and around the northeast and I've never had a problem. Of course there are some drivers that come a little close and are discourteous, that happens anywhere. At least in ...
