Phuket Reports

[MakeItOrBreak]

I'm going with big group of friend. Should we go all the go go bar and have a look then decide we should end the day?

Lineups vary and atmosphere also. But the more places you check there more people will split up.

Finally will have 3-4 weeks in Phuket over Christmas.

Mainly have daytime access to Phuket town. Read good things about Katherine's but there seem to be many similar places like Angels a. S. o.

Has anyone tried any other place besides Katherine's? Is there a price quality difference? Katherine's still going at 2-2. 5 K for 90 min?

Will report after my trip.

Cheers.

Katherines seems to had some pressure since their page is more generic now. When I browsed the other places same area normally they charge more but it is for 2 hours. Hope someone got more intel.

Hi to all,

In few weeks I'll be in Phuket for a hot weekend, with friends in a villa.

We'd like to book some girls to come directly to our villa.

Do you know some good agencies?

Thanks!

So full disclosure I have not been to Pattaya. But if you were to get a consensus from this board I feel certain that Phuket / Patong would be ranked well below Patts and BK for girl activities. So don't go to Phuket if that is your main purpose.

But supposing you are there. Down Bangla Road about 2/3 way down on the right (headed to the beach) is Soi Sea Dragon. This little alley has all the best Gogo IMO and lots of little beer bars. There are at least five or six gogos to choose from. Just poke into various ones and see what cranks you up. Two years back Harem was the nicest venue and pretty girls but high priced. We had best luck at Diablo. Small club but three hotties we liked. Maybe just lucky. Anyhow just cruise Sea Dragon and see what strikes your fancy.

Go early and ask if they got promo get that drink and browse them all. Bangla isn't that big so you will be able to sort out. Rock hard is my favourite due to sentimental reasons and has a quite big local which favors viewing the ladies. Even with a bad coyote encounter there last time we had a blast. Don't go crazy with tips or drinks for them it is quite amazing what you can get for 20 thb. If you fancy someone buy them a drink but like I posted earlier if your looking for take out make sure it is on the menu.

Can advice me on which is the best go go bar there?

September is normally a quiet month and start of heavy rains in Phuket. Historically I have had a blast in Phuket and especially Patong being a part of that but recent few weeks I had some opportunities to roam around.

Kata, Karon and especially Kamala was really empty in end of October and start of November which also echoes in Patong. Illuzion was moderately packed but overflowing with FLs at midnight++. Suzy Wong had more girls than patrons and want 150 THB for a soft drink even if you buy a bottle of JD. If your wallet is thick and you don't mind splurging I think Patong is perfectly fine. But overall I think you will get more for less money in Bangkok or Pattaya. I would even go so far to say even if I am a bit of novice int that area that you most likely can have a better adventure going to Hat Yai.

Prices quoted from some ladies in Phuket are ridiculous seeing how little customers there are: 2000 THB BF and 5000ST. Personally I didn't go for this and it is possible to find more for less. If you know how to work it (them), the culture and language you will be able to go all the way to freebie. However I did see some Coyotes signalling they want to go with customers and asking for drinks but never intending to do so. Just be aware of this and make it clear early if they available before you splurge to avoid these "scams".

Feel free to PM if you have any queries.

My favorite part of the RMar experience is this irony — Prostitution is illegal in Thailand. So I laughed out loud when checking in they give you a little card that says "If you bring a girl back to your room, she is not entitled to the free breakfast". Hahaha I still remember that. It's illegal, yet we had all these cards printed up. 😋.

Thanks, that's exactly the kind of place I was seeking. Had some problems finding it on the various booking websites because different sites have it listed differently. R Mar versus R-Mar versus RMar were all used in one place or another. Prices for my travel dates for the same room and breakfast ranged from $85 to $165 depending on which website you used and if you bought a refundable reservation. I ended up paying $115, which was the cheapest available refundable rate. That was hotels.com while agoda.com had the lowest non refundable rate. The next day my buddy tried to buy the same room for the same days and the prices were different. Timing is important.

The prices I quoted did not include the large taxes and fees associated with hotels.com. On my first visit to a Thailand hotel I usually book using a booking site, but subsequent visits are booked through the hotel directly. That seems to save a good amount of money. For example, for my Koh Samui stay hotels.com wanted $115 per night (including taxes and fees) but I arranged 2300 THB directly with the hotel. Thats a big savings, but I dont deal direct until I have developed trust in that particular hotel.

Book the Rmar and don't look back. It is a nice clean small hotel and tucked away. Walkable to Bangla Road easy but off the beaten path. No noise. Girl friendly. Great staff. We loved it. Would repeat if I am back in Phuket.

Hi everyone,

I've been doing the Pattaya thing for the the last number of years and its been about 6 years since I've been to Patong (I've been there twice, once in 2013 and then in 2015. The first time there I wasn't into this hobby and the second time was spent with a gorgeous massage girl that I met. I'm thinking about going again this September. October 2020 for a change from Patts and I'm just wondering a rough estimate of the BF and ST costs on the various bars on Bangla Road. Last time I was there I didn't spend much time there and the girls didn't seem the ST type more the LT or coyote / girl to play connect with type. Mind you I was a newbie at the time and didn't know how shit worked then, now not so much. Flame me or tell me to FTFF if needed.

Thanks!

I don't see this forum to be very active therefore asked the question. Are there any places in Phuket like Tulip, Annies or Snow white? I had a great experience in Bangkok at these places. Want to visit similar places in Phuket as well. Thanks Members.

Look at my earlier posts about Katherines and that area itself. Patong is mainly expensive as fuck now and overflowing with coyotes playing the game.

I went to a strip of bars by chalong pier last year in phuket. It was kind of a low class place but fun. Do girls stay at places like that long term? I coming back in January will I see a lot of the same women or mostly new? I know no one knows the exact answer but many here know how thailand bars work and can give a probable answer. I have a couple of reviews of the area in my history.

Thanks.

Horatio PM me if you want me to check further details I know people in the area. But overall they rotate staff and some find "love" etc.

I'm booking a hotel for my first ever visit to Phuket. Hotels.com lists many places near Bangla road as "Great for Families" Does this mean they are not girl friendly? I sure don't want that!

Some examples:
DoubleTree on Thaveewong Road.
Patong Beach Hotel on Taweewong.
Hotel Clover Patong on Taweewong.

I'll be going in February. Any suggestions of girl friendly places in the 3500-5000 THB price range would be appreciated. I'm just now starting to study the Phuket forum.
