Hi !!
Have You already booked Your hotel ?
I guess that You pay maybe 2-3.000 Bahts per day/night at Cabana...right ?
Why dont You choose a MUCH cheaper, but still good, hotel ??
Try to book Your hotel at :
www.phuket-summerbreeze.com since this hotel in SOI SAEN-SABAI may cost You around 550-1.000 Baht per night...JUST choose the STANDARD room, since it is GOOD...believe me !!!
You can also choose KASEMSUK MANSION in SOI SAEN-SABAI, this hotel is on Your left side when You come from SOI BANG-LA...and the prices are almost the same...around 600-650 Bahts...
You can eat WELL at a small thai "restaurant" at RAT-U-THIT Road in Patong...it is the road going parallel with the beach road, THAWEE-WONG Road....
When You walk from the beachfront on SOI BANG-LA (the bar and activity street), then You reach the supermarket OCEAN on Your left side...and after that...ROCK HARD CAFÉ on the corner...on Your left side....
You then turn LEFT....down RAT-U-THIT Road... and the small restaurant, which I have been mentioning...I THINK it is called no. 5...but Ive forgotten...the restaurant is lying almost across RAT-U-THIT from SOI SUNSET on Your right side...
This small restaurant, has got a few table in front...and several inside....and it is TYPICALLY THAI STYLE...try their food...it is good and cheap !!
You are very wellcome to write me on nep4you@hotmail.com, and then ill try to answer any questions..
I will be going to Patong the 6th-21st of May...and Ill be staying at....The Summerbreeze Hotel...
Ive been to Phuket a lot of times...and I think, that I might be able to help You...with most things at least...
Yours
