Trip report - first timer impressions
Hi all,
First, thanks for this forum and all of you that prepared me for this experience. It was how you described it, yet something much more profound.
First, the Mai Tai bar was a big suprise. I was expecting this big place with all these people. Instead, it is one of the tiny little beer bars. I had a hard time finding it at first. Still, very nice people.
The women are beyond what I expected. I traveled alone and was there for 5 days. Spent extended time with three beautiful women. Really hard to describe the experience. Maybe the most amazing part, is just the warmth of these women, beyond their beauty. I really felt like I was just on a date with a beautiful woman, not buying some service. I may be fatally addicted to the beauty of Thai women, as well as their charm. I can't seem to find anyone at home that compares, including the above warmth. I usually spend far more money on a two hour date with an american woman than what I paid for the whole night with these girls. And this was much more fun!
Being from the US, and prices seemed very reasonable, both for entertainment, food and lodging, even with our sagging dollar. If you can get there, it really is a great way to escape modern society. I stayed down at the Hilton in Karon Beach. I really liked the choice. Beautiful resort far enough away from the madness of Patong, yet an easy ride when I wanted something more. Actually, maybe the best of the three women was discovered at a little beer bar in Karon. I should have spent more time with her. Don't overlook the little hidden places. There seem to be beautiful women everywhere. Cost for the girls was 1500B and I didn't even negotiate. Two of the girls claimed to have just arrived and seemed very innocent. Although I know you will suspect it is a story, everything they told seemed authentic. Maybe I can pick the innocent ones or maybe they are good sales people?
This was mid-May so the weather was hot. Almost too hot for me at times. I tended to hide out during the mid-afternoon and then get out as the sunset hit. I was getting used to the heat and humidity just about the time I had to leave. Next trip I need like two weeks, not 5 days. Even so, I sort of enjoyed low season. Lots and lots of girls. Nothing was crazy busy. Hilton gave me great service. And they have beautiful women working there, although not working girls (as far as I know).
Sometimes the language barriers (English) were a frustration. At first it was fun to communicate with broken sentences. Late at night it was more of a burden. I'm guessing that my choice of some young innocent types might have made that worse. I was tempted to spend the whole vacation with one of the girls. Maybe should have done that, but I wanted to experience a bit more on this trip.
I did fall into a trap the first night of buying drinks at a little beer place near the bathrooms on Soi Eric. Completely beautiful girl. I stayed there far too long sort of mezmerized by her. Finally she told me she had a boyfriend and tried to get me to go with her girlfriend. Sort of a bait and switch routine I guess. It was still fun, but I felt a bit like I was being a bit used by her. Live and learn...
I budgeted about $200 a day for fun, massages, girls, beers, food, taxi's, etc. I actually came home with cash. Can't complain about that. During the hot season, I suggest using the taxi's rather than the Tuk-Tuk. Was surprised the price was the same.
Did I mention the beautiful girls? It has me seriously wondering if Thai women are in fact the most beautiful women in the world? I have been to China, India, Singapore, and many parts of Europe and I haven't seen such consistency. I seem to have a serious case of addiction here. I will be in Hong Kong later this summer. Will they compare?
Well, I might add some more comments later. Just wanted to finally add something to the forum here.

We should pass this post to the guys who come on here, saying no good looking girls her or there, or who go soi crawling for their 10's, maybe if they read it and remembered that the reason we all fall in love with Thailand and its girls, is not just their faces, but the warmth and tenderness they offer and the experience of being with them in comparison to our home town ladies!!
Sorry one of my pet peeves reading about numbers being given to girls and only going with stunners and forgetting beauty is a little more than skin deep!!then the same guys are back on complaining of 'starfish' performance, well I'm shocked, don't they ever truly wonder why??
Sorry, great post GBS, and I think Lil has hit it spot on, sure we will be seeing you back GBS and soon!!

Got to agree, my own leaning curve is that the young beauties are deligtful to look at, my best times have been with the slightly older girls...

Hong Kong in late August or early September. Although I love chinese women, they don't have that huge smile of the Thai women. And I don't think they have that same openness.

The Hilton did not have a joiner fee. I am a diamond member and did book a room for two, so not sure if that had an impact. They did require that my partner stop at the front desk and leave an ID. Since it is an upscale place, it is best to bring someone with appropriate dress so they don't cause a distraction in the morning. Overall they were very cool about it.

Agree fully. It's our first visit to Phuket and having read I don't know how many ph vs pats girls threads, all I can say there are 100's of really beautiful and lovely woman everywhere. If you're out as a single here, it's very very difficult not to fall in love every 5 seconds. Thank God I have my steady guide with me;-)
Good report gbs999! Hilton looks very nice indeed, though I personally prefer the more cosy family style hotels on my trips to LOS.

Head down to Neptune II on Jaffe Road in Wanchai - you will think you have arrived back in Thailand, except for the prices.

Yea, I fall into that trap all the time. I see a pretty girl and then say "Ah, her ankles are too big" or "I just don't like the shape of her eyebrows". But if she was back in the states I would do ANYTHING just to be seen with her. I've always said give me an 8 that tries harder. I know I've lost perspective because there are simply too many choices here.
On the opposite end though when you're coming from a western country you are sooooo starved for love, affection, a gentle touch, attention and not to mention having intimacy with a young asian beauty all night that your perspective is also tainted into believing that all that warmth and tenderness is because "you handsome". Oh yea there is that monetary exchange with the departing kiss of which is also an absolute for her, otherwise I sincerely doubt there would be much warmth given.
I guess these Asian beauty's have there own "number" system. Ouch!!

Good report summing up how it is for most newbies...is this the first time that "profound" has been used in a Phuket trip report?
