Pattaya Bar Girls

Bar Girls

Pattaya Bar Girls are a very common sight in Pattaya, Bars will generally employ 3-7 girls to work in the bar, entice customers to come in and buy drinks and try to get the customer to “bar fine” them, which means the girl can leave the bar with the customer and do what ever they like. Generally for a set fee, the girl will be willing and very happy to go back to the tourists hotel for a coffee or a night cap. Bar Girls do not earn very much money per month, and will generally have to work long hours and they will at times have a quota they need to reach which will generally be a set number of lady drinks bought for them and a set number of bar fines each month. If they miss either of these quota’s they will be docked so much from there pay each month.
Bar girls will often come from very poor parts of the country. places like Issan is very common as this is a farming community where the average person will earn about $3 per day. When they learn they can go to Pattaya, or any other tourist region and earn up to 2000 baht per night, they will usually jump at the opportunity. Bar girls will often be un educated as there family not not have either lived near a school or would simply have been unable to afford it as the average school cost can at times be what they will earn every few months. Bar girls will often be not as far into the scene as girls that work in Go-Go’s, they will be hoping to meet a nice farang that will perhaps take her into a better life. This of course is not always the case, with there been many story’s of Pattaya Bar Girls having many men from different places sending them money each month, thinking that they are the one and only boyfriend which does this.
Pattaya Bar Girls will generally ask for anything from 2000 baht to 5000 baht for a “long time”, which means over night. This can always be bartered down to 1.5k as that is almost 1/5 worth of a month work in the bar, which is already far more then they could generally make working in a rice field. A “short time” which means they will go for an hour or 2 should cost anywhere form 500 to 1000 baht, but this is generally not worth the effort a long time is far better. Best Hotel Pattaya believes you should take concern with Bar Girls that come from establishments you do not no, or have owners that are not present, If you have any issue with the girl it is possible your story will be ignored and you all have no way to sort out any issue regarding a bar girl.

Pattaya Go-Go Girls

Go Go Girls

Pattaya Go-Go girls will usually always work in a building type establishment, they will often have been in Pattaya longer then a Bar Girl will have a “heartened heart”, Go-Go girls can at times be older then Bar Girls and they can also still come very young which is a surprise and indication on how early girls will travel to Pattaya for the increased income! Pattaya Go-Go girls will usually performs shows and act’s in Bikini’s on a stage in front of a live audience, customers can call on girls for private shows and even just for a drink and conversation.
A bar fine in a go-go will generally be more expensive then in a bar, Go-Go’s wil often charge 700-1500 baht per bar fine for each girl. The girls in a Go-Go’s will generally ask for a higher fee due to the extra experaince, which should cost no more then 2000 to 25000 baht, which a possible tip for great conversation skills! Go-Go girls have a slight reputation for pulling the odd swifty, so you should ensure you valuables are locked away if you believe you might get a little messy due to drinking a little much.
Go-Go girls can be a fun vibrant group, often enjoying there working and loving the tips they receive! Go-Go girls are a popular genre in Pattaya and there are many venue’s where they can be found, with probably up to thousands working in them each and every day and night! Pattaya Go-Go’s can also charge more for drinks, this can be read in the Pattaya Nightlife section.

Pattaya Freelancer’s / Freelance Girls

A Freelancer Perhaps?

Pattaya is a place with many night clubs, and bars which allow any girl to come in and try to find a customer. Freelance girls are often very good looking, and believe they will have more luck finding customers on the beach, in night clubs, on the street and by them selves in bars which will allow them. Freelance Girls will generally go for the same price as a Bar Girl, Best Hotel Pattaya believes you should look at paying around 1500 – 2000 baht, with the bonus there is no Bar Fine this can seem like and excellent situation, although it should be remembered that as you are not paying a bar fine you will have no way to no where this girl is from or who she is. It is possible the hotel will take her details, but with a bar girl; you can go to the bar to complain. This is not possible with a freelance girl.
Freelance Girls are a great choice if you are on a budget or are looking for the best looking bird. Best Hotel Pattaya is friends with many freelancers and we can assure you that the vast majority are not out to do the wrong thing but rather earn good money to save away and send back home to help their family. Freelance Girls will often also come from poor villages, or Bangkok. Freelance Girls will move around Thailand far more then Bar Girls and Go-Go girls because they are not tied to anything and can go where they believe they will find more western men, and area’s that have ore tourists drinking and enjoying a holiday in Thailand.
Freelance girls will often have few friends, and a big collection of money and clothes. They often can earn more then Bar Girls as they will try to find Expats that live locally that will call on them during the week for the odd visit. Freelance girls in Pattaya are double fun and action at times and you will hopefully not find a star fish which is a potential possibility with the Bar Girls that are found in Pattaya! Freelance girls also have the freedom of doing what they wish during the day which will be a big help if you are looking for some company due to many people traveling to Thailand solo!

Good Pattaya Girls

A Good Thai Girl

Many would say it is difficult it find a “Good” girl in Pattaya and Best Hotel Pattaya would have to agree; that is not mean it can not be done though. If you are interested in finding a good girl, we would implor you to go some where like Bangkok or Phuket and visit a very high class trendy bar which would not allow bar girls in side and would most serve fine wine to people of the corporate nature, if you are content with trying in Pattaya though, we believe your best luck would be at your hotel or in the shops, the girls working in these places are often agent the act of working bars, this is not to say they do not go to the nightclubs on occasion and go home with a farang, and accept money in the morning.
Good Girls in Pattaya re hard to come by as the income for each Thai is so low, and Thai Girls will generally want and need to save money to send it back home. They can at times have children they need to support, and it is very common for them to have a Thai boyfriend who will demand money when he needs it. It is very common for all girls in Thailand to be required to do this, and it must be understood that they will always put them selves on the bottom on the pecking order, unless a farang is there. Farangs will always be last.
Girls that are “good” and educated will not generally work in Pattay though, as it is known for been a seedy town with a big red light district. Educated Thai Girls will also wish to stay with other Thais at is is the thing to to do for the upper middle Thai class.

Nearby Beachs

Bangsaen Beach

This is a little piece of paradise hidden away from the tourist spotlight. Only one and a half hours from Bangkokat that! Bang Saen, or Ban Bang Saen, has a population of less than 10,000 and is part of Saensuk Municipality, which in turn belongs to Chon Buri Province. Pattaya is less than an hour away and while it seems to attract vast numbers of international visitors, Bang Saen is a local haunt.

Bang Saen Beach, 100 km southeast of Bangkok and about 10 km from the provincial capital of Chonburi, is a day trip for residents of Bangkok, and is visited mostly on weekends by Thai tourists looking for a relaxing day on the sand. Eclipsed in recent decades by Pattaya, it was once the favorite getaway for Bangkok's elite. Now it attracts mostly Thai families and teenagers looking for a brief, low budget holiday weekend.

One of the best things about Bang Saen was the large number of local restaurants and bars and the relaxed atmosphere everywhere one goes. The nightlife in Bang Saen is completely different to that of beach towns in Thailand I've visited. Virtually all of our fellow diners and drinkers were locals and the live bands that played from time to time were singing Thai pop or Thai versions of western classics. Pretty good too! One musician we came across was able to play ten instruments.Enjoyed checking out all the different bars. You can hop in a taxi bus and move from bar to bar. There are plenty of places to see and it's easy to get around. The only 'adult' night life in town was far away from the beach area. It's present, that's for sure - just not not as obvious as in Pattaya or Phuket.

North Pattaya Beach

Bangkok-Pattaya is approximately 135 km. By Taxi 1 hour 45 mins

Nostalgic serenity North Pattaya or Pattaya Neau is the most peaceful beach among the three main beaches in town. Mass tourism originated on this beach before it spread to north and south Pattaya. Many hotels that were established three decades ago can still be seen lining this brown sandy beach, proving its longevity and popularity. The beach starts from the Dolphin roundabout in front of Dusit Resort. Beach chairs and umbrellas are available for rent along this shady beach while restaurants, bars and convenient stores are just walking distance.

Central Pattaya Beach

Central Pattaya: The beach of fun Just a little bit south of North Pattaya passing the golden mermaid and dolphin statues is Central Pattaya, the beach of fun. This is the most popular and, certainly, lively beach in Pattaya. This is the area where shopping malls, boutique shops, bars, restaurants and coffee shops are crammed along a busy beachside road. There are more beach chairs, umbrellas and tourists in Central Pattaya than other beaches. During the day, the area is enthusiastic with beachgoers frolicking on the beach or enjoying several kinds of water sports activities such as jet skiing, banana boat, paragliding and parasailing. At night, the street is illuminated with pubs, bars and restaurants. Middle Pattaya may not be the most favourite place in Pattaya but it is usually the place ones choose not to be missed.

South Pattaya Beach

South Pattaya is located next to Central Pattaya. The area may not have an attractive beach like North or Middle Pattaya. People seem to come here for a different reason. Looking more energetic at night, it draws many fun-loving tourists who stroll this 500 metre lane looking for a fun time after dark. Numerous shops, restaurants, bars, discotheques, nightclubs line the streets. Thus, it is the place for adults only.

Jomtien Beach

Jomtien Beach Situated 3 kilometers southward of the downtown, Jomtien is a spin-off from Pattaya. This 6 kilometre long beach may bear some resemblance to Pattaya beach in terms of beach activities. However, it has an ambience of isolation. Thanks to its distance from Pattaya. The beach is suitable for swimming as plenty of water sports activities are available. Accommodations on this beach are relatively cheap and there are enough restaurants to serve diners. Off the street to Jomtien Beach is another beach named Dong Tan. It has a more relaxing atmosphere than its neighbouring beaches due to its no-car parking policy. Indeed, cars are allowed to pass and park on this beach only before 10 am and after 5 pm. The beach is shady with pine trees and beach umbrellas. Therefore, this is the place where you will see beachgoers joyfully basking in the sun.

Naklua Beach (1 km. walk from Pattaya)

Naklua Beach is the most northerly of the bays and by far the quietest. Naklua is much smaller than its neighbours and it does not suffer from the mass development Pattaya Beach has experienced. Like Jomtien it is more family friendly. The Pattaya municipality spent 1.8 million Baht on cleaning up the waters around Pattaya, and in Nakula it is now possible to see fish in the water. This makes bathing in the sea a genuine pleasure. Nakula is also a centre for windsurfers and windsurfing equipment can be hired from the beach.

Koh Lan (Lan Island)

Koh Lan (Lan Island) 81 Kilometres from Bangkok. Only 7 kilometres off Pattaya shore, Koh Lan is the most visited island in Chonburi Province. It’s conveniently accessible with regular ferry and speedboat leaving Balihai pier in south Pattaya as early as 8 o’clock. It’s the island of fun. Each beach offers a variety of activities from water sports to sunbathing.

Beaches in Koh Lan Haad Ta Waen is the longest and most popular beach of Koh Lan. Located in the northwest of the island, this 750-metre-long beach has clear waters and white fine sand. The beach, which is popular among Asian tourists, is lined with colourful beach chairs, shops and restaurants. Located in the west of Koh Lan is Haad Tian. This scenic beach in the cove stretches 500 metres long and features some coral reefs. It is as popular as Haad Ta Waen with loads of sport activities and restaurants on the offer. Another beach near Haad Ta Waen is Haad Sungwal. It is a small beach, only around 150 metres long. Without any shops or restaurant in the area, the beach is quieter than Haad Ta Waen and good for sunbathing. For those who prefer basking in the sun in peace, Haad Samae and Haad Ta Yai may serve your purpose. The first beach, which is only 10 minute walk from Haad Tian, is relatively quiet with shops and restaurants dotting the area. Nestling on the northern tip of the island, the latter beach has fewer beach goers and only one beachside restaurant.

Cha-am Beach

Cha-am Beach is located 200 km South of Bangkok. Getting quickest and easiest way of getting to Cha am. The trip should take about 2 and a half hours by Taxi. Cha-am Beach isrenowned for being the best beach in Phetchaburi. Cha-am's fame was established when it's neighbour Hua Hin became a royal resort and members of the royal family commented that Cha-am was just as beautiful. As a result, Cha-am has become a firm favourite with weekend visitors from Bangkok, and is becoming increasingly popular with international visitors keen on experiencing a genuinely Thai resort town.

There's a complete absence of bars along the beach local bylaws won't permit them. There are though numerous hotels and restaurants dotted about the 3 kilometre long beach and it' easy to pick up a place to rest in a deckchair under an umbrella. You can get a donkey ride if you want one and it is possible to rent bicycles to explore the area. There are also herds of food stalls selling excellent snacks.

Cha-am is remarkable in that it is unremarkable this is a pleasant beach with green water and that's about it. Cha-am is not in your face and that can make a genuine change and probably what is making it more attractive to foreigners.

Chao Samran Beach

Haad Chao Samran is the closest beach to Phetburi and enjoys immense popularity amongst the Thais, so if you are after a quite day at the beach, weekdays are your best bet.

Slightly nicer than Haad Puk Tian the beach here is in better shape and the town is not quite as desolate with loads of eateries and excellent seafood. There is also a beach wat, a police station and a few small supermarkets here.

For birdwatchers, try the expansive marshy land (competing with the inevitable shrimp farms and half constructed condominiums) between Haad Puk Tian and Haad Chao Samran.

Puk Tien Beach

Had Puk Tien is also long and quiet, but here you will find a plethora of accommodations and a large statue in the water commemorating Phra Apaimani.

Surrounded by profound natural beauty of long white sand beach and refreshing cool breeze.

This tiny coastal town is very popular on weekend but remains virtually deserted during the week. The coastline is straight, flat and not particularly interesting but fine for a quick dip if you are staying in Phetburi town and there is a multitude of places to eat in the area.

Aside from eating stacks of cheap and tasty seafood under the causarina trees there's not much to do aside from marvel at the statues of Thai mythological characters that are arranged down on the beach. Protagonists in the Thai epic 'Phra Aphaimani', the gruesome six metre tall Pee Seua Samut (an aquatic she-demon) emerging from the sea is particular worthy of comment.Others include a flute playing prince, poised on a nearby pile of offshore rocks and a motley collection of other mermaids, wizened old men and other characters from the same tale.

Hua Hin Beach

When compared to Bangsaphan Hua Hin is a bustling metropolis. Hua Hin has hundreds of hotels, guesthouses, bars and restaurants so you're really spoilt for choice. The one thing lacking that Bangsaphan does have in its favour is a clear blue ocean.

Hua Hin is located approx. 190 km south of Bangkok and 3 hours drive from Bangkok and 92 kilometres north of Prachuab Khiri Khan, its provincial chief town and it is a coastal, well known resort town, set on the west coast of the Gulf of Thailand, Hua Hin has a population of around 60,000 people, the King of Thailand has his summer palace Klai Kang Won (Far from Worries) adjoining the beach.

Hua Hin has one of the lowest rain falls in Thailand and being a coastal town gets that lovely sea breeze, so can be visited all year round. There are three seasons, the dry season (March-September), the rainy season (October - November) and the warm season (November-February). One of the lowest rainfalls of any beach area. Weather is hot but refreshed by a cooling sea breeze. Most days offer clear blue skies and sometimes billowing white clouds. Hua Hin was chosen as the Royal resort due to the excellent weather and climate.

Among the most important landmark is the Klai Kang Won Palace, a royal summer residence built by King Rama VII. The major nightlife attraction which is very popular with both Thai and foreign tourists is the night market. A wide choice of cuisines naturally with many fine Thai restaurants.

Hua Hin has night markets, stylish shops and boutiques. There are many old style and art shops close to the fishing piers, art and crafts shops .

The main beach area fronts the town itself where many fine resorts are found. Beaches to the north and south . The beaches at Khao Takiab (Chopsticks Hill) and Takiab Bay (Chopsticks Bay) are just to the south of the town centre. Hua Hin beaches stretch along the coast both north and south. For out door fun and adventure you can enjoy watersports, Elephant rides, All terrain Vehicle rides, fishing and boat trips. Khao Takiab Bay is a popular beaches with clear clean water and gentle waves, beach loungers and beach umbrellas for shade. Palm trees and Casuarana trees line the long beach at Takiab Bay. These beach areas are also popular for jogging and beach cycling. The area also offers the opportunity to visit the temples of Khao Takiab, feed the monkeys, climb to the viewpoint. The Khao Takiab area has many temples includes many built many years ago. Snorkeling is available a few hours south . The River Kwai is just 3 hours from Hua Hin . The National Park at Sam Roi Yot (Three Hundred Peaks) is just 30 minutes south of town.

Pranburi Beach

Pranburi is some 30 kilometres south of Hua Hin and a district of Prachuap Khiri Khan Province . The beach itself may not be spectacular but its peaceful environment infuses a sense of privacy and exclusivity. It was never a popular weekend destination among travelers. In the past, holidaymakers preferred to stay in Hua Hin and drive to Pranburi for a one day trip.

However, this is not the case, today, since it becomes a popular getaway among travelers from Bangkok who seek to relax in style. That contributes to the increase in the number of chic and boutique resorts. The trend started in 2002 when Soneva hotelier group opened its first boutique resort in Pranburi. The resort was a huge success, luring local and foreign investors to follow its footstep. Yet it maintains its serenity. Some resorts in Pranburi offer a shuttle van service for their customers who want to go to Hua Hin for a night out. Nowadays, Pranburi is a tourist attraction by its own.

An interesting attraction nearby Pranburi is the Pranburi Forest Park, which occupies

Khao Takiab Beach

Khao Takiab Beach are located in the Hua Hin area on the coast of the Gulf of Thailand. The surrounds offer beaches, elephant rides, boat trips, offshore fishing, horse riding, cycling and nearby Golf Courses. Ideal for those seeking a beach area that is quiet and relaxing and yet just minutes from the busy center of Hua Hin. At low tide during most of the day the beach is almost 100 metres wide and is several kms long.

There are beach loungers and shades and also fern and palm trees along the beach. The water is clean and the waves are just gentle ripples. At the north end the rocky mountain of Khao Takiab is an amazing view. Ideal for jogging you also find people paying petanque and volley ball, even when busy at weekends there is plenty of room and beach space to find your own quiet area. Beach vendors to not bother anyone but are available for a cold drink, tropical fruit or food snacks. The area behind the beach has Bourganvillia lined quiet streets with vacation homes, small guesthouses, boutique accommodation. You will also find Elephant and also grazing cattle, this is a very nice area and under 10 minutes from the centre of Hua Hin.

Bang Saphan Beach

Bang Saphan is a sleepy beach town on the Gulf of Thailand, it can be reached from Bangkok, 380km away, in approximately 5 hours by road. There are actually two Bangsaphan's; Bangsaphan Noi and Bangsaphan Yai (meaning big and small when translated from Thai). We will focus on the larger since not a lot happens in the smaller.

There are several local attractions including Koh Talu where day trips are popular. We also have a detailed accommodation guide listing Bangsaphan hotels, resorts, guesthouses and bungalows.

A Bangsaphan feeding guide highlights all the local and expat restaurants serving good food. There are a couple of friendly little beach bars in Bang Saphan that are also included. A great way to spend a relaxing afternoon.
