Hi all,

in october i am going to Patong for the third time. During my last two visits i have stayed at the Sunset Apartments. A great place with reasonable prices and good service.

However - change is good. I am looking for a simliar place, not so "off-Bangla". If i could get a cheaper apartment it wouldn't hurt either.
Is it possible to rent "nonhotel"-apartments short time (1 month)?

I wouldn't mind staying at the Sunset again. But i want to know my choices

This one is a lil bit far if you dont mind walking.

www.swisspalmbeach.com

They have Superior Suite for 2 persons, dont have pictures in the website, but it's really nice and comfy.

To book send them an email info@swisspalmbeach.com

Very friendly staff there. Really like staying there.

Close to the beach, short walk to Bangla.

Girl friendly.

Almost around the corner from Sunset

And a bit pricier. But it seems nice.

But - if i change from Sunset i would like to be even closer to Bangla. All those quick trips to the hotel is exhausting

I have stayed at the Andaman Beach Suites. It is nice but has some drawbacks. 1st its a longish walk to Bangla, at least 10mins which doesn't sound much,but try it full of ale at 3am. 2nd It is NOT girl friendly,and I believe it is over 3000baht to bring a girl back. Breakfast is nothing special.
Its very expensive IMO,check the rates,but that may be a good rate for somebody.

HaHa, yeah i know the distance, i have been staying at Swisspalmbeach for the past 3 trips. Walking to Bangla is not a problem, coming back after drinks, i need a tuk tuk.

One thing i like bout that area, it is rather quiet.

Take alook at Casa Summer Breeze on Soi Sansabai, great location, walking distance to and from Bangla, shared pool at end of road, owned by Bill a BM and a great guy, I know he is pretty much fully booked at the moment but give him an email her will respond very efficiently. If full try, Orchid or Yorkshire Hotel, both on the same soi, all 3 hotels are guest friendly and will let you pay by the day should you not like them when you get there.

Whoops, sorry Mbash just logged on again and saw the actual title of your thread requiring info on Apartments, so good idea to ignore my last post on hotel rooms.

I don't think it was a total waste Dodger...LOL

The Casa Summer Breeze has large suites, Summer Suites, and a penthouse which is priced at 2,700 baht per night.

The Yorkshire Inn has a Penthouse and this is USD$45 per night low season, which is pretty reasonlable...

This may be useful to Mbash
