I am a new member although I have been surfing the forum for a couple weeks. Found some very usefull information on this site and ran across some very interesting reading.
I will be visiting Patong Beach around the end of October and just wanted to know if the weather will be nice as I understand the rainy season will be winding down?
This will be my first trip to Phuket I was in Bangkok back in May and it was one of the best times I have ever had Nana Plaza and Soi Cowboy were great. I was there for 7 days and met some of the sweetest girls, why did I wait so long to come to Thailand?
I am thinking of staying at the Patong Bay Garden Resort because of its location to the beach and Bangla Rd I think it is BG friendly anyone here ever stayed there?
From reading the board for a couple weeks now I have found that their are some very nice people here, hope to talk with you all at some point and maybe meet a few of you in Patong.

Good Day,
Paul

Hi Paul and welcome onboard!

I stayed at the Patong Bay Garden in September/October 2001. The hotel was moderniest in 2004 and was just finished to open at Christmas before the wave came, so then they had to start all over again. But now it looks very nice their. Great location by the beach and Bangla Rd.

The Managing Director, Mr Preechavude Keesin, is the son of the Patong Mayor, and he is a very friendly guy who will help you in every way he can. If you have any problems, you should ask for him. I think he also has some business in Soi Easy as well.

Well, this was a little bit more information than you asked for, but it is always good to have some "friends" in LOS.

Have a great trip to Phuket!

Frode,
Thanks for the information about the Hotel. Can anyone tell me more about the weather at the end of October or is it just touch and go with the rain?

Thanks,
