We chose on purpose a locality near the city of Pattaya. It can't be denied that Pattaya has a bit of a seedy reputation, but it is nevertheless a fascinating melting pot that offers everything one might be looking for. For some years now the city fathers have been trying to correct this image, so as to make Pattaya more of a holiday destination for families. About 20 golf courses in the vicinity have also helped to attract a more cultivated clientele. Numerous new hotels and businesses are an indication of this development, and you will see that Pattaya is no where near as bad as its portrayed media image.
In this constantly growing city you will find the most diverse cultures. Anything a European could wish for, can be obtained here. The latest technical innovations as well as food items for your home kitchen are readily available. Go shopping in one of the many department stores and enjoy dinner in an international restaurant. No matter which cuisine you prefer, Thai, Italian, Chinese, Indian, American: They can all be found in Pattaya. Are you craving a Swiss fondue or an English breakfast? No problem..
