Pattaya Reports

[UglyAzzMan]

Just wondering if the rest of folks here who have already booked or planning to book the next trip noticed a significant increase in hotel prices? Hotels in Bangkok I stayed in March this year are like 25-75% more expensive same time in 2025?

Yes prices have gone up in Bangkok proper.

The vast majority of bargirls have much more sex than they want, to the point that they don't like customers who make them work too much.

There are some low volume ladies who don't have the money for a Thai man, or can't get one for free, and if they aren't too old, might enjoy some fucking, but they are rare. Any lady working in Pattaya who likes sex would much rather have it with a Thai man rather than an old Farang.

Pattaya, as they say, is like Disneyland, and no, Minnie Mouse is just acting, she is not your new friend.

You can actually tell who likes you and who doesn't. Pretty much.

If you see a see 6 girl you like and as you approach she turns real fast away- she doesn't like you.

The Hard ones are the introverts. Hahaha. They might like you, they take your money and say thank you but not much more. There's one like that at Oceans on Soi 6- she is just reserved as FKK. She will make eye contact and smile.

I saw a BBC approach a gaggle of Girls at OPPA. Known Korean Place. The girls scattered. I wonder if it was the SUB.

I was wondering if it is easy to get Testosterone injections or tablets in Pattaya? If anyone has any reccs for a pharmacy or a doctor / clinic please let me know.

And by the way, is there any point in taking the above if I am in city just for a week?

Your post got me thinking about Thailand hotel prices, so I went back to my hotel records over the last 3 years from 2 different hotels. One hotel has not changed appreciably, just slightly lower price for 2025 than 2022. The other hotel had an increase of about 25% from 2022 to 2025. This is comparison of the same hotels, same class rooms, and same months. I don't have information that is specific to Pattaya, but I've seen nothing close to 25%-75% year to year.

There can be a big difference in price for different booking methods: Agoda, Priceline, Hotels, email to hotel, telephone hotel. Sometimes one is less money, other times another is less money. It also can make a big difference if you book long in advance or if you do a last minute booking.

Me neither. I am in BKK for business around 4 times per year. I do stay at the Radisson Blu Plaza. The price varies throughout the year between 95 and 155 USD a night. No major difference to pre-covid even. (VIP Member prices).

Its called capitalism. Once the victors for market competition emerge, they can then exercise their oligarchical right to push the prices up until the market is at breaking point. Some will complain (you), but the every growing market place will mean that more can and do pay, so we all end up paying more.

Pattaya is jammed with tourists. The question is how many of them are in the bars?

More than enough so the girls don't have the necessity to lower the prices. And every season it's the same story but reality is the only direction prices are going is north.

I have no doubt that girls like the 'slam, bam, thank you ma'm' mongers which I am not. I like good service and many girls do not provide this. The SBTYN mongers generally always get the service they want which when a girl seeks to provide me with I call poor service. There are probably some guys who do not know that women enjoy sex as much as men, however, if you are her tenth client of the day then diminishing returns apply and I always factor that in my choice. The SBTYM guys are no doubt squeaky clean and do not indulge in DATY, BBBJ or such activities and probably have no experience of making a working girl orgasm. Believe me I have done that during coitus and otherwise and having banged women now for over half a century I know when a girl is faking it and when she is not and I have had many fakers.

To put it in a nutshell if you are just into SBTYM then you and the girl will always be happy. If you are not you have to be more selective and an expert interviewer. You may not always be successful but the rewards are phenomenal.

From a generalized standpoint, based on many talks with WGs whether they're bar girls or freelancers, many WGs prefer a man (customer) with a small penis (so he doesn't "ruin" her vagina and its easier to suck), big wallet, and fast ejaculation. They're not having sex for pleasure and want their job to be as easy as possible.

Doesn't matter how old, young, fat, bald, short, tall, race, color, or ugly you are. Doesn't matter how "good" you are in bed or how much "game" you have.

I think some mongers get caught up in superficial things trying to impress or seduce sex workers. The point is as long as you have money, there will be pussy you can find regardless of your age......

It does not matter how many are in the bars. You do not have to be in a bar to get a chick in Pattaya. Maybe a better question would be how many of them are picking up hookers. The same chicks that were talking that 3000 shit 2 weeks ago are miraculously back down to 1000 again. When the money gets low, then the hungriness shows.

Hey Rocko and Philip. Check the rants thread. Let's move this conversation there.

About Pattaya, dam I miss it. I've been unable to make the trip from Bangkok recently. What I have heard is that other than the weekends, Pattaya high season this year has a lot of ladies but nowhere near the amount of tourists that were expected. Therefore, it's basically a free for all with ladies everywhere and tons of selection. Whoever is in Pattaya now, count your lucky charms.

The scene in Chiang Mai is nowhere near that in Pattaya, but the same is true here. Many fewer tourists than expected, so more ladies and the odds are in our favor.

A friendly word of advice. Whenever you're in Thailand, if you ever find yourself in need of a criminal defense attorney, be sure to get one who didn't get his law education from website news stories and from Thai police colonels. Or from mongers who have been in Thailand a long time. Find one who knows what the Thai penal code is, and understands it.

I wonder if it is a bad translation by the editors of those news reports or are they simply towing the Thai cultural line of protecting the image of the country by using the word "technically" so often.

"Technically, prostitution is illegal in Thailand but blah blah blah. ".

Of course, that is just the point; prostitution is not illegal "technically". Not by the definition of the word "technically", as in:

According to the facts or exact meaning of something; strictly.

If there was a law in the Thai Penal Code or the nice try but still missed the target The Prostitution Prevention and Supression Act that specifically states the exchange of money for sex between consenting adults is illegal, a crime, that would be "tecnically" illegal. And then they could cite the specific Title and Section in The Code or The Act that strictly states the exact words and facts that make it so. But there isn't one.

"Roughly", "approximately" or "vaguely" might be accurate I suppose. But not "technically".

Then again, maybe they are playing typical Thai-style word games with the use of the word "illegal", as in not legal or not legitimate.

Now, that's a different matter entirely.

Practitioners of something that has not been officially "legalized" or "decriminalized" can be targeted for demonization, abuse and exploitation without the legal protections afforded legitimate businesses following fully ajudicated contracts and business practices.

And that is the part of prostitution that Thai authorities have not accommodated, although certain Sex Worker Advocates are asking them to do that. They have chosen instead to say nothing about it specifically at all in The Code or The Act. They don't yet want to be seen as a country that tolerates Sex For Money as a legitimate, legally sanctioned and ajudicated business enterprise.

Cannabis sales and consumption? Yes, that is now an officially legalized and legitimate business enterprise in Thailand. With certain qualifiers. Violate those Cannibis issue qualifiers openly and shamefully and you will be busted and arrested for that. But merely smoking or consuming it in Thailand is not a crime. Similar to the situation with prostitution except for the fact that Thailand is not yet ready to officially "legalize" it and accommodate it in law as a legitimate business enterprise.

Which leaves it neither a crime nor legally sanctioned by the government.

Therefore, in ordinary parlance and I dare say even technically that makes it "not a crime" "unindictable", "no law against it" and "legal to do it" regardless whatever word games one wants to play about it being "illegal" or not specifically accommodated or sanctioned by law.
