End of cheap holiday thoughts, at that price I'll wait until I can fly to Da Nang again. Flight CNX to DaNang, 1,200bht, bus to beach 20bht, hotel room near beach 500bht, beer 30bht. Treehouse, an awesome bungalow resort/restaurant is now 350 bath per night for beachfront and 250 per night for non-beachfront (according to the board at their entrance). Not sure if fan or AC, probably fan at that price though. But it is indeed located at one of the best stretches of one of the best beaches, is extremely kid-friendly, free sunscreen, beachmats and hammocks and such, and does some extremely delicious cooking too. The only place I know on Samui to make khao soi. ???? Can't promise a 30bht beer though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must admit to having a little chuckle tho, in the past, we heard about Thai/farang altercations where the Thai spiel was: " Its your fault farang, if you werent in Thailand this wouldnt have happened" well, its kind of in reverse now ist it? 555 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, not all the bars and shops are closed. The majority have reopened. 90% of the restaurants ive eaten at didn't even close... Life goes on, and yeah, empty beaches are so nice. So, it is dead then? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bangkok Airways put on 8 extra flights to Samui today and I do not think that was to evacuate the disgruntled TV posters. ???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
