Отель действительно очень удобный и красивый. Я жила в этом отеле в июне 2024 г. Внутренний дворик весь утопает в зелени. Завтраки - вкуснейшие, персонал - вежливый и спокойный. Бассейн достаточно большой. Есть ресторан. Обязательно вернусь туда на отдых.

I’ve stayed in both and I give my vote to Areca, mainly for the location and swimming pools. Breakfast without air conditioning isn’t great after a big night. Amethyst is my favorite if you can get a room, getting very busy and expensive now due to its popularity.

a couple of things i was not clear about. how did the agent get your proof of residency? and how did she get your medical certificate? the latter has to be done in person. also those prices are very expensive. about 205B for your first licence and renewal is about 600B. really easy to do by yourself too
@paulsrighteyeАй бұрын
Thanks for your comments, as I said in the video the agent got the proof of residency and medical certificate, I guess you could contact her to find out how she did it. No doubt you can get your license for a cheaper price but this is just how I did it when I first arrived in Thailand.
