Songkran 2017 in Pattaya – 12 to 16 Apr
The last time I was in Thailand during Songkran was in 2008, and I was pretty sure things on ground this time would be vastly different from my memory of Songkran in Pattaya. I was both right and wrong at the same time.
I was right about the fact that Songkran has nothing to do with availability and price of pussy. I was wrong about the notion I carried that over the years the madness would have sobered down a bit. After all, this it is a time of mourning for the Thais. Add to it the recent LE crackdowns fuelled by scathing news reports in international media about Pattaya and its vices. But I was wrong. And how!!
I had booked a deluxe room with pool facing balcony at Areca Lodge on Soi Diana. I managed to get a great deal from the hotel. A separate report with the details can be found in the Pattaya – Hotels thread, so that the trip narrative stays focused. For those who are not interested in details, a quick summary:
Number of nights / days – 4.
Number of chicks banged – 10 (with one repeat).
Money spent on girls / barfine – 20,700.
Average per encounter – 2,070.
Selection platforms – Soi 6, Simon complex at Walking Street, GOGO Bars, Online.
Best VFM picks – Simon complex.
Most hassle-free picks – Soi 6.
Worst pick – Online.
Money spent on other non-mongering activities like drinks (self + various others) – 8,700.
Taxi (both ways) - 2400.
Hotel – SGD 58 per night with breakfast + 2 complimentary cocktails daily for the deluxe room with pool view. Quite a steal I would say.
It's a long read so fasten your belts, sit back and enjoy the ride. Oops! Read.
Songkran 2017 in Pattaya – 12 to 16 Apr
Day (Night) 1 – 12 Apr.
I flew into Suvarnabhumi from Singapore on an evening flight that landed in BKK at 7 pm. Now that is peak time for arrivals and I knew there would be a massive jam at immigration. But thanks to the best kept secret of Suvarnabhumi, I was out of immigration and baggage collection within 12 minutes of landing. I had booked a taxi to Pattaya through VR Taxi Service. Very reliable chap this Keak who runs the service. He charged me 1200 thb this time, said it's Songkran and it's hard to find a driver. I reached the hotel and checked in by 9. 15 pm and took a nice hot shower.
And here is when the fun starts. I had arranged for 3 girls to meet me at the Areca bar at 10 pm, 10.30 pm and 11 pm. The plan was to get a ST done with one of the three girls and then head out to look for LT prospects. I had arranged 3 girls purely for back-up. One might not turn up, the other might not be a replica of her pics, the third might not agree to my needs. Thus, 3 for safety. But as luck would have it, neither of the 3 girls were replying to my messages. It was now nearly 10.45 pm so I decided to trash the plan and play by ear. So I went to Kiss and got some grub and went to Payagayo. No specific reason, except that in a few previous reports the place had received some worthy mentions. Got in, got a drink and scouted the talent on stage and on the floor. Mamasan is a bit pushy, I must say. But within 20 minutes I spotted a chick who was 7. 5 in my books. Called her over for a drink and quickly made my intentions clear. Barfine was 800, steep in my opinion for a place like Papagayo. I agreed, paid the bill and went back to my room with her. No discussion about payment to the girl. Back in the room, the girl was outstanding in bed. A solid 8. It got me thinking about extending her stay at Areca. I asked her if she wanted to stay overnight and she agreed. But she also suggested we go out dancing. I am not much of a competition to Fred Astaire but I went with the flow since the girl was really nice and I wanted her in a good mood for the rest of our time together. She took me by bike-taxi to some local Thai disco somewhere off 3rd road. I think I was the only non-Thai inside that place. Spent a while there and returned by 3 am. We showered together this time and went to town again. I finally fell asleep, fully spent, by around 5 am. She woke me at 10 am with the morning wood services that I love so much. Finished up and lazed in bed for an hour more. Finally the time came to send her on her way, so I handed her 2000 plus 200 in tips and kissed her goodbye. Like most girls she asked me to visit her again at the bar to which I nodded and said maybe.

Day 2 – 13 Apr.
After she left I stepped across to Robin's Nest for some food. The food is just passable here. After this the madness of Songkran began. I headed to Soi 7 first to view and possibly participate in the water wars. I got completely drenched in ice cold water even before I could exit Soi Diana and reach 2nd Road. And Soi 7 was a warzone. Very crowded, mostly locals from the province roaming around in gangs having fun in playing with water. And the bars were packed too. I got accosted at one of the bars by two cute girls. I stopped for a drink. The girls asked for drinks but I countered by asking if they would do ST. They said they wanted to play now and later maybe we can go later. I was in no mood to buy drinks without a definitive reply, so I refused the request for drinks, finished mine and headed to Soi 6 where such interaction would be viewed as nonsense.
At 2 pm, Soi 6 was no less insane. None of the bars has the girls in any sort of uniform, which is a trademark of the bars there. Most were simply having a good time playing Songkran with customers and with each other. I stopped first at Sexy in the City and joined the troops there in their sole mission of drenching people who are already soaking wet. It was a couple of cute chicks there that made me pick that bar. So after a couple of hours I asked one of those girls to go up for a ST. She nodded and off we went. 350 for barfine and room. 1000 for the girl. No surprises here. You can see what you will get and you get what you see. After the romp, I hung out a bit longer and by 5 pm I started walking back to Areca via Beach Road. It is a long walk but I figured that would do me good. Once back at the hotel I took another hot shower and caught up on some sleep. Woke at 7 pm and fired up the social media apps. Within an hour I had a few girls willing to come in 30 minutes. So I picked the best one (from her pics on the app) and asked her to come by 10 pm. Once she agreed, I went across to Paanan for a much needed massage. After that I went back to the room and waited for the girl, who finally turned up at 10.20 pm. The girl was quite close to her pics in looks but lacked skills in bed. I sent her off quickly with 1000 and no tips.
It was nearly midnight now. I headed out to Walking Street. I first went to Rollive Live inside the Simon bar complex to say Hello, to a mamasan who I have known for quite a while now. And at her bar I spotted a real stunner. Immediately I pulled the trigger and called her over for drinks. The chick hails from Chaiyaphum, is 21 yo and has no kid. Her first month at the bar according to her, a statement that was later corroborated by the mamasan. I sat and bought drinks and built up some chemistry and finally by around 1. 30 am I paid my bills, her barfine (600) and left with her. She wanted to go to Lucifer and I agreed. I now wonder why I agreed.
Lucifer after renovation is a much better avatar of its former self. It was packed wall to wall with party animals at 1. 30 am. We got drinks, hung out for a while and got out from there only to head into Marine Disco which was relatively empty. We did not get drinks there as the smoke cloud hanging over our heads was too strong to ignore. I looked at the time and I could not believe my eyes. It was almost 4 am. So I insisted we go back. We grabbed some street food and went back to the room, showered and jumped into bed. And this is where this little 21 yo totally blew my mind with her bedroom skills. I would rate her skills at 9. Now after round 1 I was really sleepy, but I knew that if I slept then I would not wake up before noon and this girl might slip out before round 2. So I stayed up and chatted with her for another hour and then got into the act again. This time I took a very long time to come and when I did it was a morning protein shake for the girl. It was now 8 am so I slipped 2000 into the girl's bag and sent her away. I could see she wanted to stay but if she stayed I would not be able to sleep, so I had to let her go and get some shut eye. I made a mental note to go back to get her on this trip again and fell asleep.
Songkran 2017 in Pattaya – 12 to 16 Apr
Day 3 14 Apr.
Some shut eye turned out to be a trifle too long as I woke up only at 1. 30 pm. Mostly because I was hungry, so I went to Kiss and got a quite bite. The off to Soi 6 for some Songkran madness. Played for a few hours again, dividing my time between Night Wish and Toy Box at one end and Kawaii and Butterfly at another.
Around 5 pm I went back to Night Wish for a ST with one of the cuties I had spotted earlier in the day. Again the math and routine is the same. The Night Wish group now owns 14 bars on the strip with a 15th ready to open in a few weeks. Quite a thriving business. I came back to the hotel by 6 pm, showered and slept for a couple of hours. Woke up and started hitting the GOGO bars. Two on LK Metro and 3 on WS. Paradise and Office on LK. Skyfall, Sensations, and Wildcats on WS.
Paradise was nothing like the pics you see on Facebook. A lot of girls in their late 20's or early 30's. Did not stay for more than a drink.
Office was OK but the girls had too many clothes on that did not look like coming off anytime soon, so I left after a drink.
Skyfall was disappointing. It was a pale shadow of its former self, lacking terribly in quality and quantity of girls. Even the so called model girls were quite sad and most of them had fake titties. I could be wrong but I thought I detected a LB too on stage.
Next stop Sensations where the girls were much better but this was clearly an Asian haunt, so left with only a drink. If I stayed longer I could have picked a couple of really cute girls, but that would be both expensive and time consuming. It was nearly 11 pm.
Last stop at Wildcats following a review by a fellow BM. And he was right. You can spot the girl he described in a heartbeat because she was the only one worth noticing. Strange, because the bar was not empty. Quite a few patrons has their hands full (literally) with other girls. I called this chick over from the stage and got her a drink and discussed business right away. 800 for barfine and 1500 for her. I finished my drink and went off with her. And she was really worth the time and money spent hunting for the right one.
After finishing up with the chick I looked at my watch. Half past midnight. So I decided to go back to Simon complex and check out a couple of bars where I got cat calls the previous night. Stopped at Dream bar and instantly spotted a really hot looking babe. She was not smiling a whole lot, but I figured I would get her a few shots and things would improve. But after 3 shots she was still reserved and withdrawn. I asked if she would barfine and she agreed. 800 for barfine and a couple of 1000 on drinks, I left with her by 2. 30 am. Back in the room I discovered she had a top notch body. Lovely natural 34 see tits and an ass to die for. Incredibly tiny waist. In the room she was a completely different girl, cheerful, playful, talkative, caring and attentive. And she was just as good in bed. After we showered and made out in the shower we came out and started a slow session that lasted very long. She came multiple times with DATY and there was a very large wet patch on the bed soon. I finally finished and lay entwined with her till we both fell asleep. I woke an hour later, disposed the condom and went back to sleep.
We woke at 11 am, did the usual morning thing which again lasted for a long time. Slow rhythmic sex with everything else in between. I put 2500 in her purse and she left at 2 pm.
Songkran 2017 in Pattaya – 12 to 16 Apr
Day 4 – 15 Apr.
I was running late today from my schedule but I was also feeling lazy, so I chilled out by the pool and got a few laps in to regain energy. Finally I left for Soi 6 by 5 pm. The place was a lot more tepid than the previous two days. Went straight to Toy Box and picked a girl for ST. And I was very glad I picked her, because for a change the girl fucked me like a real champ. Unlike the usual 1 hour deal she voluntarily extended the time for no extra cost. At the end of nearly 2 hours I felt like a walking rag doll. My legs felt like jelly. Went straight back to my room and slept off till 11 pm.
This was my last night in Pattaya, so I wanted a LT that was reliable and memorable. So I sent a message to the girl I picked on Day 2 from Rolling Live. She was thrilled and requested me to come to her bar. So I went there by 11.30 pm and she was over the moon. She showed me off like a prize to the other girls and they were chattering incessantly while giving me glances and giggles.
Since I was tired I did not want to prolong things, so I asked for check-bin along with bar fine. The mamasan said that the girl had paid her own barfine to come with me today. I was taken aback. Never in my mongering career has this happened. I insisted I pay it, but I could not convince the girl nor the mamasan.
So finally we left around 1 am. Got some street food and went to the hotel. Back in the room she kissed me with a different level of passion and vigour. I could sense the change. After a nice long session we both fell asleep in each other's arms. Woke at 11 am next morning. I called the reception and asked for a late check out and they mercifully obliged with a checkout at 2 pm. No extra cost.
That gave me time for another relaxed session with this beautiful little girl.

Day 5 16 Apr.
Finally I let her go with 2600 (to cover for the barfine she paid). She protested at first but I told her to consider it a tip. After she left I checked out, left my bags with the bellboy and went for some lunch at Kiss. Then headed to Soi 6 for one last hurrah before catching a flight back to Singapore at 8 pm.
Went to Butterfly bar and picked a chick I had spotted earlier. Good session, but nothing like the ones from the last day.
By 4. 30 pm I left Pattaya, with the same feelings I have when I leave this place each time. Not enough, can't wait to get back, how to spend the next few days in hangover, etc.
The connections created this time will keep me motivated till my next visit when I will find a completely new bunch of chicks to keep the cycle going. Adios!
