Thalang Villas - Reviews and Rates

After a hectic 3 days in Bangkok, we were looking forward to some relaxation on the beaches of Phuket. We arrived at the airport by 2:00 and had a wild cab ride to the villa. The driver wasn't able to read the address written in English, he weaved between lanes like it was a NASCAR race and he stopped and jumped out of the car at a gas station t...

Left Chang Mai this morning and headed south for the islands - hoping to chase the sun, catch a few rays and be a beach bum until it's time to get back to reality. Wow, nine more days! It's gone be quick! The flight was smooth sailing. Had a window seat (sat next to a couple from SF on their honeymoon), and got to see the beautiful island landfo...

We were up early and went snorkelling while the bay was quiet. There was a good array of tropical fish but not a lot of coral compared to what we are used to in Australia. We had just about seen enough when "rush hour" started - huge tour boats packed with tourists arrived and picked up any empty moorings. It was obvious that we had out-stayed ...

Last night it continued to rain which was absolutely beautiful. We slept well and I woke up to birds chirping. No rain today. But what we discovered today was we truely are on a deserted island. As I wrote before there are no modes of transportation other than boats. No bikes, no cars, and definately no roads. There are plenty of toads and gecko...

And also i have a really hot argentinian instructor, which isn't bad! I dont know if i'll be going to kaoh lak now either because of the extended stay here, but we'll see. ...

Martha, Bryce and I left Kho Phi Phi Don the next day after having dinner the night before at an Italian restaurant with Tony and friends from the vessel Tactical Direction. We sailed to Kho Phi Phi Ley, where the film, "The Beach" was made. We arrived early in the morning to a quiet, lovely bay, put out the anchor and enjoyed the scenery over ...

Yeah, I've been slacking with the blog I know. Once I get a few days behind I don't feel like writing because I feel like I have so much to catch up on, plus now that Mel's here I have a lot less motivation to come check my email every day. Hopefully I can convince her to do a few guest entries... So, my last week in Krabi (Railay beach specific...

Arriving in Karon Beach after a short drive from out new friend Aneis, we arrived to a more populated area set against a beautiful beach lined with umbrellas and chairs. The beach was similar to McKenna Beach in Maui. It was a golden color that made a weird noise when you stepped on it. The water was the most beautiful turquoise you can imagine ...

Well, I've come to the end of my little adventure, so let me share one more entry and I won't bug you again...until my next trip! I had originally decided to go on to Ko Phanang with a group of people that I had met in Siem Riep, but for some reason I changed my mind at one of our bus stops, and I bought a ticket to continue on to Krabi without ...
