New to this forum,
Very much enjoyed reading the excellent chat.
So, gettn ready for 4th visit, have good mates down in Kata but had thhhheee most boring trip with the wrong combination of 'friends' last Nov. So looking to enjoy a more 'normal' short hol. this time.
Previously headed straight to Kata, this time thinking of spending couple of nites in Patong first. Any recommends on best (hassle free, all mod cons, BG friendly) accom much appreciated.
Will be doing my best to head for MTB on the Sat nite once bed sortd. No black death though! Would rather drink my own sock water! Or preferably very large JD.
Address of nearest Pharmacy for little blue D's would save some time & much appreciated.
1-3rd May
3-7th (Similans, not sure have enegry for it - will be 3rd trip!)
8-10th back for more then depart 10th
Any top tips (since couple of years since properly hit the bars) Shark Club was still open last time I was out & about!! Last I heard was called the 'puckered starfish' and about too shut-down

Col, I absolutely LOVE Kata Beach, but have never stayed there. Could you please tell me more about what you liked, didn't like, about Kata? I'd like to learn more about the place as I've never stayed there longer than a few hours and always 100% of the time at the beach.
Cheers

Well,
OK (for me) Kata Centre is 'busi-er'. Kata Beach bit further on (2 ins by car - 20 walking) quieter, but good place to take a break. Few good bars. Mee Bar, excellent host, good company, tends to be young local expat crowd working in Phuket.
Best time to visit definately during Kings Cup. Early December as all the yacht crews and associated corporate & local groupies decend - good parties and BIG late nites. Some very good cheap accomodation and every type of food from excellent Thai to full-on Italian wood oven Pizzas.
Kevan & Chantal at Phuket Scuba (opposite Ma's BoatHouse) run excellent dive school and have answers to any Q's you mignt have. Patong is 15 mins and 300/500 Bhat away, so can be best of both worlds.
Easy Rider (Kata Centre) is a good nite out in high season with pretty decent band that will play most any request you like - mainly down to cheers or boos when you shout what you want to hear next. Kata Centre has more bars and is sort of in-between when it comes to late nites, bars but no clubs.
Only draw back (for me) is easy to get very comfy/well accepted locally, then can be a bit parochical and when on holiday Ii don't really have time for other people's problems/local issues or their opinions on what you (or others) may or may not be spending your time doing. But that said it's no big deal just don't offer an opinion when the local-*****n starts and keep your own plans 'your own' (if that makes any sense). All in all its a pretty good place to stay for relaxing, chillin out and planning trips to local Islands, diving & beach is pretty good. Home from home sort of place bit like the bar in 'Cheers' I guess.
That's about it. Hope it helps?? Col

Col, that's informative. Not quite sure where you were going in the first part of your last paragraph, but think I got it (mostly). I'll have to stop by Kata Centre sometime just for a look round. Didn't known of its existence prior to now.
Cheers

Apollo,
Soz, was late & had been trying to catch up on some work then got bored so was reading a few mails instead. Should probably waited until the morning proper. Was simply trying to think of any draw-backs to the place and there aren't any really. So, only things I could think back to was a feeling that (on a few ocassions) it did feel so local that you'd hear all the gossip - local expats sharing their problems with colleagues, friends, partners or you as a tourist in terms of what you should/shouldn't do with your time! But that I guess is simply part of being warmly accepted by people & that they feel you're OK enough to share their thoughts with. Which is a compliment, but a bit awkward that's all. Anyway, if you head down to Kata Beach into Mee Bar or have a beer with Kev & Chantal at Phuket Scuba you'll be sorted.

Col, no need to apologize. Now I completely understand what you were saying. IF I can make it back soon, I'll look for Kev and Chantal at Mee Bar, or was it Phuket Scuba? I'll figure it out. One thing I certainly intend to follow-up on during my next trip is spending a bit more time with the many cool farangs I meet in Phuket. All too often I bump into interesting and friendly people, but never follow-up to meet them at their favorite bar, etc. Bit like how most of us are everyday back in Farangland, I suppose. Not good; time for a change!
