Prosal Posted July 7, 2005 Report Share Posted July 7, 2005 Winds of change are sweeping Pattaya. A few years ago I've stayed twice in the Central Wong Amat Resort in North Pattaya with a GF and each time enjoyed A LOT the old fashioned low-rise buildings, the beachfront rooms with terraces (ideal for late-night sanuk), the nice landscaped tropical gardens and the secluded beachfront location on Naklua. But the old resort will be demolished next month to make way for a sprawling new hotel with two large towers of 22-storey each ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 8, 2005 Report Share Posted July 8, 2005 Does not bode well for a general plan. This ole property was a nice haven to stay with a gf or significant other. Seems Pattaya town is over built with Jomtiem catching up (high rises). Hua Hin, at least at present, may be a better choice with your sig. other.

ALHOLK Posted July 8, 2005 Report Share Posted July 8, 2005 Hi! This seem to be true for the whole of Pattaya. When I was there this winter the demolition crews were working at an alarming rate. regards ALHOLK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gene1944 Posted July 8, 2005 Report Share Posted July 8, 2005 Maybe they are rebuilding to get rid of the ghost of Wong Amat?? I am sure everyone knows that story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prosal Posted July 8, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2005 I know that there's creepy ghost stories that made the joint famous, but dunno what exactly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet owning or renting a 120 square meters apartment in this kind of new condominium (Northshore Condo) doesn't sound bad also !! BTW have you heard about the 'Blue Sky Condominium', a 75-storey monster tower of 300 meters high that a famous promoter plan to build in North Pattaya ? :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The two times I've been in Wong Amat Resort I also noticed around the pool a significant number of Russian tourists, and among them some single Russian birds on vacations, obviously eager to party and to flirt (too bad I was with a Thai GF !). From what I heard, there's now direct charter flights from Moscow to U-Tapao, with surely a few hot single girlies in each flight !! Which hotel is now popular with russian tourists ? :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
