I live in cha-am

by geroreilly - last update: Jan 10, 2007

Quiet

I live about 10 minutes outside Cha-am - right on the beach in a place called Baan Talay Samran.

It really is beautiful there and some of the villas and condos are available for short term letting.

There is a small restaurant there run by K Moo who is a nice jovial local thai guy -missing a few teeth but really nice guy!

THe swimming pools are great but the beach isnt really. Its nice to take a stroll on but not really good for swimming

nightlife in cha-am

Cha-am is a family destination and is not setup for all night revellers!

There is an Irish bar called Crawfords which is good for food and general craic - as I am IRish I am in there quite a bit!

There is a small soi (lane) that has some pool and hostess bars in the Plaza but this is out of sight mostly.

On the beachfront there is a Thai pub that has live music. Good fun there too.

Daytime in Cha-am

All water sports are available. There is an ATV park nearby.
Golf is awesome with 6 great courses within 30 minutes drive - most do pick ups.

Pros:"quiet,relaxing, genuine thai, not overrun with tourists"
Cons:"maybe too quiet, limited nightlife"
In A Nutshell:"only 2 hours drive from bangkok - mainly a thai resort but worth a visit for a relaxing holiday."
