All the info you seek is in these threads somewhere, I suggest you do some searches and read the back-dated threads. You will have to spend a bit of time reading the posts, but the advantage is that you will also pick up a lot more info that you are initially asking for and this helps to build a better picture of Phuket and what it has to offer.

Cheers
Diz

p.s. welcome to the board

Give the guy a break...

Everything is running as if nothing happened, except some hotels at the beach in Patong. Kamala is hit more severy, but that is not a "girlie"-area!

On other beaches, like Kata, you will have to search to find evidence the the Tsunami has passed here!

And girls everywhere as usual, Patong, Kata or wherever they normally are!

Too much for you to chose from!

girls hotels available/costs

gentlemen thank you for your kind replies, they were most informative. is phuket full of kind people like you
or was i just lucky
in all fairness i understand where you are coming from BUT!!!!!!!
it IS difficult to get UP TO DATE new information as to
what is happening in what is probably a fast changing scene
out there.
i have done my homework and realise traditionally Phuket is
a little dearer than say Pattaya. previous rates seem to be
500/1000 st/lt food probably 75% dearer etc
on TV here in uk there was a programme a few days back saying
many hotels had slashed their rates. airfares were down etc
they could hardly say the rates for the st/lt scene had come
down too could they???
that is all i was asking about.
it is no good me reading through old threads to discover whats
happening now
if anyone would like to help me with this info it WOULD be appreciated.
all my money

Prices

Hi Grimsbyuk,

I left Patong about 2 weeks ago, after nearly 3 months in LOS, mostly spent in Patong. There were plenty of girls around. No problem there. BFs are normally 200 Baht in beer bars. "Tips" for the girls vary. If a girl is hot and wants 2000, you'll have a hard time negotiating a lower price unless you are pretty hot yourself. If she is nice, but no stunner, she may ask 2000, but will settle for 1500. If she is just average, then she will most likely be happy to settle for 1000, and probably won't discuss money unless you bring it up.

With FLs in the discos, it is a bit different. The going rate there is 1000 Baht. Generally, my experience is that in the discos, if a girl doesn't like a guy, then she will just turn him down, and keep looking for a guy who meets her standards. If she goes with you, then it is because she likes you or figures that she can't pull much better than you, and it is 1000 Baht. I only had two ask 1500. One I gave it to, didn't attempt to negotiate a Baht, 20 yrs old and an absolute stunner. The other, I more or less laughed at, took a walk, came back and she grabbed me, said 1000 OK. She was very pretty, well better than average. If all else fails, you can always get a decent-looking girl at Safari, at 5 or 6 AM for 1000 Baht.

Those are all long-time prices. I never go short-time. But from what I've heard from the other guys, the price ranges from 500 to 1000 depending on the attractiveness of the girl, and how much she likes you.

Of course, if you prefer the gogo girls, then the prices are all higher than those quoted above. I would guess you could add 1000 Baht to the above. Didn't go with any gogos, so I can't say for sure.

All in all, I never paid over 1000 Baht after the first two weeks I was there. I never liked the disco scene much, but found that you can get some very nice girls there for only 1000, if you learn to play the game. I had some guys who are experts coaching me. Thanks, guys!

Hotels were definitely discounting substantially.

JayBee

Well when I was in "Tiger" disco, many girls, but no luck, cannot call them stunner!

Outside Patong a girl never asked more then 1.000 bath to me! You can also find cuties in Karon/Kata in a more relaxed athmosphere.

Like said before, if you like a girl, just ask her to come to your room. But only ask this, when you have been talking a while to the girl and bought her a drink! If she says yes, and not talk about money, then you just give her 1000 bath next morning!

If she does want to get into money, before coming with you, I never pay more then 1000, period!

If the girl plays it hard, just find another, or if you really think she is the stunner you really want, propose her if she can stay a couple of days!

Then the price will go down to 1000, because she hopes to get an income for several days and can have a few days of, being with you!

You may have overlooked the infamous Thai marketing policy which simply put;

If business slow put price up!

girls hotels available costs

gentlemen,
thank you for your up to date information,
i was worried that many of the tg would have gone off to other
resorts. or been scared to stay.
i have spoken to some thai people
(not P4P people, other friends ) and they say they do not
want to go to phuket;,,,,,,,,,,, cos too many spirits there now.
from a falangs pont of view i must admit concern/fear that you could be swimming or laying on the beach and a body might just wash up!!! ARGHHHHHHH
once again many thanks for the help, i am hoping to visit phuket now as all seems well.
best regards
grimsby

hi dizbusta.
just an observation.
you chose to give tin tin a bit of grief here and i cannot
see why.
1(your first paragraph rattles on about YOU did this,
YOU think that, YOU dont see why YOU should do the other,
YOU think they are lazy, YOU dont have trouble getting up
to date information etc
2) your second paragraph then goes on to say YOU dont need
silly little comments and YOU dont think people should comment
on board postings.
Thats fine Diz, you are entitled to think as you wish, you say you
gave a polite reply which you did BUT!!! it was with hidden undertones.
However no one forced you to reply to my question, i only asked
for help, if you did not wish to do so..............................
THERE WAS NO NEED TO MAKE SILLY LITTLE COMMENTS INFLAMING THE SITUATION
cant win them all eh??
once again guys thanks for ALL the information, including yours Diz, and the fun of friendly banter.
were all on the same side remember.
regards
grimsbyuk

dizbusta, strange post...

First it never occured to me that you were the same author of the other post, that just scared me by reading the title, NOT for its content!

2 nd the "give the guy a break" was not put an agressive way, just c'mon let help this new bm out! If you allready have to get flamed because you want to help people.....

3. I sincerely hope YOU do not have serious problems to get winded up by so little!

As you seem to read my posts, then you should know that I am the first one to try to calm things down, when people are fighting over nonsence!

Have a beer man and have sanuk!

Whats the problem?

When i was a newbie, i read as much as i could before i posted to get a feeling for it and to see what was posted before....

Why do people think there is a search button? For fun or to fill up space?
There is no silly questions, but after reading 200 posts asking about price for girls st/lt, it gets really boring to answer....

Use the search button!!!

I agree with that!

But sometimes for a newbee it is also difficult to find what he wants even with that bottom.

I just wanted to give him a helping hand, not critize the author of the "search" post!

So I hope that is clear! Much noise for nothing!

Absolutely I think the reply was polite just because he said look it up for yourself and you might learn something new,this is true when you search through old posts I'm always searching them and learning something new everyday.

Hey Tintin I think you have become a nicer guy since LOS and I see your reputation has gone from red to two green boxes maybe you just needed a holiday.

Question

i think if every-one used the search facility instead of asking ,the board would be very boring and quiet,even dead,
even if the questions asked are repetitive, new members wouldnt become known to anyone!

dizbusta,
i can see your character does not lend itself to reasoned discussion and open debate. i find that quite sad for you, it must be most frustrating
i have no desire to continue any communication with you save to point out that i did not ask YOU specifically for any advice
you should have chosen, in your words to POKE IT.
i apologise to other posters for starting this thread as it has caused upset.
thanks for the help and up to date info you have given me.
many thanks
grimsbyuk
