I want a lot and for little money
We are going with a friend: approximately March 9-17, 2011.
I really want to fall asleep and wake up to hear the sound of the ocean and see the water. A friend does not want to completely move away from civilization. I read a lot: I'm going to Karon. I really liked Marina (but expensive). Liked, for example: Front village. What do you advise? Preferably with experience staying in a recommended hotel!

It does not matter: the presence of a TV, the Internet, the availability of massage at the hotel and other additional services. But a beautiful area with jungles and gardens is suitable: the presence of a slope and stairs, but with the above requests, does not repel.

It is unlikely that you will be able to see water at the "territory with gardens" on Karon, where the embankment from the highway separates the first line from the sea, only if it is from the only high-rise building on the beach. Kata is more developed in terms of infrastructure compared to Karon, so Karon is not a special civilization, although certainly not remote beaches where there are a couple of cafes and a couple of shops. If Karon is so desirable - there is no jungle in Tavorna, but the territory is impressive, there is where to take a walk, 5 pools, ponds with lotuses and local tree frogs, an orchid garden, glades, meadows, golf courses, down stairs to the street to the sea, front entrance from 2nd line through the green tunnel. Pieces of the sea through the tops of the palm trees are visible from the top 4 floors.

Thank you. No, we do not consider such a large hotel. In Karon Beach, the sea is clearly visible, because. hotel right on the beach, for example. Some "northern" hotels - on the very border of the beach are on a hill and "views" should be.
Cliff series (2 hotels close to each other).
But the information is not so much real.
Thank you!

To be honest, in places like Patong, Karon, and Kata, you are unlikely to hear the sound of the surf, but civilization will be very close. The beaches of these places will also not be completely clean. I would like to understand what budget you are counting on?
аватар olga-6607
Thinking of flying on our own if we can get cheap tickets. We will book the hotel online. Accordingly: the hotel, I looked, about 15-25t.r / for two for 7 nights.
I already understood about the sound of the surf, now we are thinking about the cliffs, where there are views of the sea. Do you know anything about :karon cliff contemporary bungalows? Very little information.

I don’t know anything about this hotel, due to the fact that we didn’t rest on either Katya or Karon. We basically know two bays, Nai Harn and Surin. I’ll say Phuket is a very expensive island compared to others, but you can still relax there .

"Phuket is a very expensive island compared to others, but you can still relax there."
Sorry, didn't you understand?

Olga, look at the hotels on Kamala Beach. I recommend Kamala Beach Hotel or Kamala Sunwing Resort. Or, check out Bangtao Beach - Amor Hotels or Sunwing Amor. This is in case you want the first line and the sound of the sea under the window =)

Thank you! I will study carefully!
What can you say about Kata-noi from this point of view?
Still began to think about Fr. Chang.
аватар Waldi
Kata Noi has only expensive hotels like KataThani (although it has a relatively inexpensive type of accommodation in the Buri building). And there, Mom Tri's Villa Royal is also not a budget option. Anyway, the beach is great. But with a small budget, you can't fit in there.

Thank you! Sad! Will we develop the north or still Chang. And fly, probably, on your own through Bangkok with the Emirates or on a burning one!
Can you tell me your opinion about Chang?
аватар Waldi
Chang is beautiful. Quiet .... so far quiet =( As soon as mass tourism moves there, this heavenly place will be lost for us forever. Therefore, try Chang. Personally, I would rush there =) Or to Koh Tao =)
аватар olga-6607
Thank you! Let's think! And if Chang is compared with Phuket?
I heard there will be problems with movement: because. the bike is dangerous there (mountain roads, serpentines), and a taxi will be a little expensive.?
аватар Waldi
Do not compare traffic on Koh Chang and Pattaya, for example. It's like comparing Kukuevka with Moscow =)
аватар olga-6607
And I'm not comparing the intensity of traffic, but the steepness and complexity of the coating itself. And Chang and Phuket. It is clear that Phuket is intense. I'm more concerned about steepness and turns. In Moscow, I went to work on a moped for a while. The truth is, there was no one behind him. Now let's go with my sister! Worried!
аватар olga-6607
And I'm also very worried about low tides on Chang - I can't find a schedule. They also write about the fact that there are more mosquitoes on Chang, there is a muddy bottom on the beaches and jellyfish sail more often. Or am I just getting these reviews? I don't know how true this is.
They say on the forums that the sea in Phuket is better. Until it's broken!

Mosquitoes are not that much more. They are there, because there are rivers nearby, and floodplains depart from them and feed swamps with stagnant water. That's where the mosquitoes come from. The bottom is muddy, it is. And the jellyfish swim no more often than usual. Do not bother yourself with nonsense - pack your bags already =)))

Thank you very much! Great link! Everything is clear and for any date!
And I'm upset! A friend was not approved for a vacation in March, only at the end of November! And I was almost sitting on my suitcases! So now from 23 to 2-3 December! I'm going crazy in a year!!!
But on the other hand, it seems that a route has been drawn: we catch cheap tickets to the BKK, a day there. overnight by bus to Trat. and there on the ferry and on Chang!
I will study the tide map and see which beaches at this time will be the best! And don't book. and search locally! How is that an option?
If life does not make some adjustments again !!!
аватар olga-6607
I started to study the tides, and only now I noticed that the map is on Koh Si Chang. It's north. I just need: Koh Chang. I found Chang there by latitude-longitude, but it says:
"No tide or current predictions available in this region"
Those. I realized that no flow was detected. Or am I doing something wrong?
You can find everything on this site the same, but for Chang?
аватар olga-6607
Nothing shows up in the Trat area: not the temperature. nor humidity, etc..
That's what I was looking for - there is data to the north, but not to Chang!
