For those who have spent some time in Phuket, Pattaya, and Bangkok where would you say the sexiest girls are? I know the prices are higher in Phuket, does that bring out hotter girls? Or does the sheer volume of the other two trump it?
Is staying near Patong in Phuket the right plan? It seems that most of the Airbnb's are around there or around the beach to the North (Kamala?), which do you guys think is a better area to stay?
Do you think those condos in Patong will be able to hear the music from the bars late into the evening? Or is there enough distance that you won't hear?
Appreciate any assistance
I've never been to Phuket. Between Bangkok and Pattaya the girls are IME equally attractive, but in Pattaya prices are much cheaper for everything. Bangkok has a few more things to do, so I would recommend hitting both on your trip, but if I could only do one I'd pick Pattaya. YMMV.
If you are thinking of taking a girl back to your room I would recommend against an airbnb. If the girl tries to rob you or do something shady you have very little recourse at an airbnb. If you can find a girl/guest friendly hotel she'll have to leave her ID at the front desk and they won't give it back to her when she leaves until you confirm that everything is okay. Thailand has no shortage of scammers and this will stop a lot of them from even trying.
As for noise definitely don't stay on a street with a big party scene if you want to sleep at night. If you're a soi or 2 away from the action I would recommend checking tripadvisor comments for info about the noise.
GL enjoy your trip.
