Food can be delivered. But only certain kinds of food on a list of approved items that apparently does not include pizza from wherever, barbecue ribs from here and there, boiled chicken or whatever when they don't know at what temperature or how long it sat out in the open air.
Remember, these ASQ hotels are in many ways stand ins for an actual hospital room and environmment, nurses on duty, assuming responsibility for 24 hour medical attention, if needed, what you are fed, how you are tested and so on.
I don't think it is so much about a fear of infection by or from a delivery process but more about what kind of food would or should be given to someone as if they were in a hospital bed and could show signs of a serious, potentially debilitating or deadly disease any minute.

Posts: 5427Testing Positive On Day 12
A 50+ year old friend of mine from Europe (I will skip some immaterial details, just in case, to better protect his privacy and others) who owns a condo in Bangkok and usually lived half the year here but who has been stuck outside of Thailand since last January was just about to finish his 14 day quarantine in a lower Sukhumvit area ASQ hotel when he tested positive.
No options, no alternative, he was immediately taken to a hospital on the outer edges of Bangkok where he will remain in quarantine and receive several more tests for at least another 10 days. And that is even if his very next test result is negative. The one he got at his hotel might have been a false positive, but that doesn't matter. I suppose the hospital can't know if the next negative test result he gets is a false result as well.
Anyway, a few things that might be pertinent, I don't know. He actually had Covid-19 months ago in Europe but recovered well enough to get all the negative test results he needed in order to qualify for his return visa and board a flight. And then he tested negative on arrival and throughout most of his stay in the hotel. Until day 12. He has not been vaccinated yet. He feels perfectly fine as of this writing about 36 hours after he tested positive at the hotel.
He also sort of "cheated" a little. I don't see how this could have been the reason he tested positive again. But, you never know. I'll explain it here anyway. He hated the food at his hotel. The rules allowed that he could get other food delivered to him but only by friends, not by a restaurant or other delivery service, and only certain kinds of food designated in the rules; certain canned goods, uncooked packaged items and so on. But he did manage to get a girlfriend to deliver hot cooked food items not necessarily on that list of allowed items from a local western restaurant. That one restaurant was an exception made for him by the hotel at his repeated request.
Personally, I would not have strayed from any of the rules and just stuck to it by the letter no matter how shitty the food was at that hotel. Oh well. His girlfriend never entered the hotel with the food. She would only hand the bag to a member of the staff and that person would leave it outside his door and return to the elevator.
On the assumption that his positive test at the hotel was not a false result and that he has indeed tested positive for coronavirus again the most logical conclusion is he got re-infected sometime around the time he got the 72-hour pre airport arrival test, the pre-flight test, the Bangkok arrival test in or around the airport, en route to his hotel or somehow when he first arrived at the hotel. I suppose he could have gotten it from someone at the hotel. But those people get tested often enough including the on duty nurses and, as far as he knows, none of them has tested positive for it.

Posts: 1222Renewal of stay
As my posts are subject to review by admin so don't appear for about a day after I send. I imagine this will already have appeared on the forum but on the off chance it hasn't.
According to a document published in the Royal Gazette, the Immigration law for Section 12 (4) and Section 44 (2) is being changed to include the need for the foreigners to have a #COVID19 test done in order to stay in Thailand. I imagine this will have to how negative to get the extension. Details as usual are unclear but worth keeping in mind when renewals are coming up.

Posts: 6294The golf resort will not be cheap. Think about you staying, eating, and playing golf at your local golf resort for 2 weeks. Green fee should be around 3000 baht per day and a lot more for accommodations and food. My conservative guess will be 100-150k for your quarantine depending on the course and accommodations.
On top of that Thailand is now charging a new 300 baht fee for every tourist that enters Thailand.

Posts: 4665Golf quarantine in Thailand now available at six government-approved golf resorts
Bangkok, 13 January, 2021 – The Ministry of Public Health's Emergency Operation Centre (EOC) for COVID-19 recently announced a list of government-approved golf resorts to allow foreign golfers with advance arrangements for golfing in Thailand an opportunity to undergo a golf quarantine as an alternative local state quarantine option.
Foreign golfers wishing to visit Thailand during this time will be allowed to spend their two-week quarantine period at any of the six certified golf resorts and move around in the resort environment and also play golf, rather than just having to isolate in their rooms..
