Cha Am Beach life looking more attractive than Hua Hin? Come look at a few great value beach condos, plus 'secret' beach gems etas & more...
Back in Thailand's most underrated beach town, check into a top value pool hotel, check out a fab beach fest & Cha Am after dark...

Thanks for sharing and no reason for apologize for the long video as it was very interesting and informative as always! I have been many times in Cha Am and Hua Hin. My favorite is Cha Am as it is a bit more quiet and laid back than Hua Hin. The Grand Souvereign is my favorite hotel in the region by far. All the condo units with separate bed room was fine for the price of 7000-7500 for 12 Month contract as long as the electricity is government rate at 4,5-5 Bath a KW/H(unit). And even if I always have said to my self that I will never set my feet on the ground at that huge complex, I now have a different view. With all the pools, close to the beach and all the other amenities on site, it's a gem!

This entire video, I was thinking what a wierd englishman travelling through showing me all this super cheap places, and then you got to the beach bar, and said it was your place, and I can confirm, that bar is where I would be. You can't even sit on a beach like that in the USA for less than $7, but you got a beach, music, a beer, and food.

Cha-Am is where many Thais head to for the weekends, which is why everything is so much cheaper compared to other popular tourist places like Hua Hin or Pattaya. I'm fortunate that my sister has a vacant condo room, which I can use for free whenever I vacation there. 😎

As a Finn I desagree about the sauna. Even when finns were in Africa Thsad as UN forces, almost first thing they built was sauna. If you think that outside temperature is about +50 celsius when you go to sauna that has +80 or over and then vome out, the outside temperature feels much cooler.
