Chaweng Guesthouse

... Chaweng, nestled on the north east coast of Koh Samui. Being dropped off at the south end of town, armed with a few cheap guesthouse locations, I began the long walk through town. Arriving at the first place, the prices had gone up by about 500% from my ...

... pics of lady boys and then Vikki singing at a bar, with a live band behind her!!!!! We have found a great little guesthouse, called 'cozy'. the people are really friendly and the room has on-suite and a fridge, for 300B/night, probably the cheapest ...

... kicked off at 9pm at Chaweng Stadium and we drove ourselves there on the bike as its only 5 minutes away from our guesthouse. The ringside seats were 1200baht each-expensive for us. The Vip seats most expensive at 1500baht and the outer ring seats ...

... , we met Dennis and Melissa from Orange, CA. Andy taught them Liar's Dice on the ferry and after settling in at a guesthouse on Chaweng Beach, we went out for dinner then lots of dice on our patio. Chaweng Beach reminds me of Cabo San Lucas.  ...

This Island is beautiful, unfortunately it is full of thieving @*#^^?!! and we have had our second camera stolen. It looks like you will all be spared from the video of Victoria singing Sweet Child o' Mine with a Thai rock band, honestly though she was ...

... in all it took 10 hours but it wasn't too bad. Once we arrived we decided to head to the famous beach at Chaweng. We found a guesthouse pretty easily and settled in. Ko Samui was the most westernized place we have visited so far (outside of Bangkok) and ...

Koh Samui - the third largest island in Thailand and the home to Chaweng Beach, where we were spending the next three glorious days.  Long stretches of white sand so soft you think you are walking on whipped cream.  Surf that you can walk out ...

... I had only planned to stay in Koh Samui 1 day before heading onto Koh Pangan and Koh Tao, but I felt quite settled at the guesthouse and made a couple of friends so was happy to change plans for a bit of comfort. I've only ever heard bad things about Koh ...

... worst place in the world to be due to the combination of humidity, polution and as we had checked out of our guesthouse, having nowhere to relax. In comparison, Koh Samui is possibly the best! Beautiful scenery, white sands, beachside bars and beautiful ...

... another downpour started of biblical proportions. We got ripped off consequently and had to pay for transport to the main town of Chaweng-complete with Hard Rock cafes, McDonalds and russian tourists with Thai brides, not the quiet isolated resort we were ...

...  these are the feelings that wanting Manchester United to fail puts into opposition fans. In Chaweng we found a delightful and well run small guesthouse called Pretzys, run by a Thai lady and her American fella. They are really ...

... to our room in a separate building, still in a daze from the island traffic we'd been shuttled through a minute before. Our guesthouse turned out to be a tad small for our liking (oh the spoils of off-season Krabi)... but all the important touches were ...

... , so we ended up getting a taxi for another 45mins to a small town where we could finally get some rest. We arrived at a small guesthouse, where for the next few days we didnt do to much, mainly becasue there was nothing to do, except visit a mall, where ...

... ...blah blah blah the usual. So we waited until 2.30pm...then they FINALLY let us in. Now this place is a 'quirky retro guesthouse' Not bad, the rooms are funky but pretty much fully furnished by Firebox and the Gadget shop. Not really that inspiring. The ...

... has some seriously good food. That evening we are both tired so we don't bother going out we just head back to the guesthouse. During the night we are awoken to a guy shouting outside that he wants his fucking lugage back his screaming outside for ages ...

... days. The room had a massive bed, Dvd player, hot shower and an amazing view. The owner was related to Penzy who run the guesthouse next door and pretty much run both places with her American husband Dave. They were so sweet and caring and had a few good ...

... transportation vehicles, waits and sweaty walks over the border, but finally arrived into Bangkok at 6.30pm. Checked into our favourite guesthouse, Chada and ran out to get some food. We were starving Marvin's. In great Thai tradition we ordered the ...

... as we were both recovering from the half moon party. The next day we headed across the street to the pool which the guesthouse shares with another hotel. It was pretty standard but great for sunbathing and reading our books. We found a great street hawker ...

... so we passed the time with a few games of shithead. We were picked up on the other side by a minibus and taken to our guesthouse in Chaeweng which is the main town in Koh Samui.  After a quick change into our swimmers we all headed off to spend the ...
