First Time Asks About Booking a VILLA
[QUOTE=Cbear13;2888904]So this will be my first trip to Thailand. I am choosing Pattaya in November for my birthday, but I am also bringing my dad. I am already on Tinder, Thai Cupid, and another site trying to set things up. thinking about getting a villa, this way I can just have 5- 6 women there at all times. Does anybody have any thoughts? [/QUOTE]As others have noted, renting a villa is not a good idea because you'll be located FAR from the action. First timers usually finding lodging in the central part of town. Say, in a 1,500 meter radius around Central Festival Mall. There is a separate forum with Pattaya hotel reviews. You'll find lots of information there. You can also rent condos via Airbnb. But beware that many of the condos for rent are VERY small, in some cases about 30 square meters. Too cramped for you and your dad. I don't know your lodging budget, but you should be able to book a couple of nice connecting rooms at any of the major hotels and be close the naughty boy haunts with plenty of room to relax.
I'll also concur with the guys who recommend against having multiple girls hanging around all the time. You won't be able to leave them unsupervised, so one of you will always have to chaperone. Pattaya is a compact beach town with plenty of things to keep you amused day and night, by yourselves or with company. If you hunker down in a villa or some other lodging you'll miss out. Far better, it seems to me, to make the rounds of the places discussed at great length in this forum. If you find somebody you fancy, it won't take long to duck out to your hotel. (Or even to take care of business on site.) Rinse and repeat, taking breaks as necessary for father-and-son time, meals, hanging out on the beach, etc.
Pattaya this past November
Alright figured it's time I write a little about my trip. I'll make a full report sometime in the next few days. I visited Pattaya for the first time this past November for a couple of weeks, and boy am I utterly impressed. I've traveled to Colombia and other South American countries many times before, but nothing compares to Thailand, or at least Pattaya.
My first day there I was very tired from the flights, almost 2 days worth of flying and layovers had me really beat. Got onto my transport at the airport in BKK through Nam's Lady Drivers, and slept for half the trip. Got to the hotel in Pattaya just before 4 PM local time. Took a nice and long shower and immediately headed over to Honey Body Massage on Soi Honey, near where I stayed. This massage opened my eyes. I have never experienced anything like it before. The woman I chose wasn't all that great in the looks department once she took off her dress, but she was good at massaging. After this, I went to eat some pad Thai, then took a walk around LK Metro and Soi Pothole, took a dive into Maggie Mays but all the good looking women were taken. Had a beer and left. At this point I was extremely tired and the massage only made my body need more sleep, especially for a bed after the grueling flights in Economy class. Headed over to a 7-11 and picked up some snacks and small necessities and then got back to my room to knock out.
I woke up around 10 AM the next day, had breakfast at a British pub and took a walk around exploring Central Festival, the Bazaar, and had a foot massage that was amazing. Had late lunch and then just relaxed for a bit. After nightfall I finally visited Soi 6, and my mind was completely and utterly blown. This was it, gentlemen. The videos I had watched on YouTube did not prepare me as much as I thought they would.
I have never had as much fun as I had had in Pattaya. It completely blows everything else out of the water, at least from what I know. I'm young, late 20's, so I still have much of the world to see, but it will be hard to top this. As I said, I'll write up more details of my short trip later. I did not partake much in Walking Street, just a quick tour to see it for myself and that was it.
And I've already booked my next trip, though this time it will be for 3 entire weeks in Thailand, even after counting travel time, which is admittedly the worst part of the trip, as I live in the US. Unfortunately, that also means I will have to wait almost a year for my next trip, but it's well worth the wait in my opinion.
