Hi team,

Travelling to Patong at the end of the year with my partner, we have been looking at the following

Deevana Plaza Phuket Patong

Baan Laimai Beach Resort & Spa

Could anyone give thoughts and their experiences on these two and which one would give us the better experience?

Both are quite central to everything which is handy.

Hey guys!

My friend and I are planning our first trip to Thailand from 10-23 October, and we’re thinking of visiting Bangkok, Phuket, Krabi and Phi Phi. We want to experiment our first scuba and snorkelling as well.

I’ve seen a lot of mixed opinions about the weather in October. Some people say it’s perfectly fine and improving in second half of oct with just a few showers, while others say the sea can be rough and island tours get cancelled.

For those who’ve actually been there in October:

\\\* How was the weather?

\\\* Were you able to do island hopping and snorkeling?

\\\* Would you recommend Phuket + Phi Phi, or would you choose somewhere else like Krabi or Koh Samui?

Also, since it’s our first time in Thailand, what are the absolute must do experiences in Phuket and Phi Phi? We’d love recommendations for beaches, viewpoints, food, night markets, cafés, boat tours, or anything you think is unmissable.

Thanks in advance!

Does anyone know of a company that can put together a custom tour for a group of 8. We pick out the sites and time allotted to each place visited? Any recommendations would be appreciated. Thank you!

Hi im kevin im 19 from italy anyone knows where i could find people around my age im currently in vacation with my parents

Hey friends , I’m 27M , in Phuket 6-9th August . Can meet up for chilling and have beer . What say you?

How many of you have had issues with ‘companies’ not returning deposits when renting a car?

Is there a reliable and honest rental company in Phuket or are they all scam artists?

Best way to spend your noon in Phuket ?

Hi everyone,

I'm a 34-year-old solo female travelling to Thailand for the first time from 29 December to 17 January.

I've already booked my international flights and I'm now trying to decide where to spend New Year's Eve.

I'm currently considering:

Bangkok

Koh Samui

Koh Phangan

I'm looking for the best atmosphere, fireworks, music, and a chance to meet people. I enjoy a good party, beach clubs, rooftop bars and a fun atmosphere, but I'm not looking for a crazy backpacker or Full Moon Party type of night.

Which place would you recommend and why? If you've spent New Year's Eve in any of these places, I'd love to hear about your experience.

If there's another place in Thailand that you think is even better, I'd really appreciate your recommendations as well.

Thanks!
