Pattaya Luxury Property Tour - Huge Condo Complex

In this episode we tour a luxury property in Pattaya which is a huge condo complex. The property has an amazing garden pool and a rooftop pool, great gym and fantastic parking garage. The two bedroom units I am looking at are well appointed with great floor plans. This complex is now top of my list in the condo search. Enjoy the Ride!
Locations:
Arcadia Continental - 12.914884, 100.873833

Believe me! I would take any one of them right now given the chance. 6 celcius outside, grey, wet and winter setting in.

[@greyhound1957]

Lucas I agree: both units in Arcadia Continental are the best so far and the 2nd one, for the price, the best offer.

[@StreetRyder87]

Such a fun informative series.

[@chriscross9505]

There are hundreds of units for rent in that complex. Many unit owners won't move on price. My experience is the richer the unit owner the more they will hold the line on price. But in these pandemic times when some unit owners can not afford to let their units stay empty because of a shortage of Farang renters it makes sense to see as many units as possible thru different agents in a complex you like and put in as many low offers as you can. There is an old saying "If your opening offer doesn't insult then you went in too high."

[@bootney66]

Wow! That open space is a game changer

[@ILUVBAKKUA]

Personally I find she's slightly above average looking what's striking and making all your jaws drop to the floor is her "pale" skin complexion which could come from skin whitening lotions and products that's popular among younger ladies these days.

[@molonlabe9602]

Need to change the direction of the fridge doors in those units. Parking garage entrance = noise. More condo suspense...555! Good job R4K.

[@grahamjohnson4702]

Fridge doors are easy to change opening direction for your own choice, not a problem for me.

[@molonlabe9602]

@@grahamjohnson4702 Someone there doesn't get it.

[@grahamjohnson4702]

@@molonlabe9602 A caring landlord or an able tenant can easily change the direction of opening, the instructions are in the user manual that should be kept in the property at all times, the landlord can ask the tenant or the tenant can ask the landlord to change it. As fridge doors nearly always open 180 degrees it may sometimes be preferable to have it open the wrong way as you say because if there is an obstruction like a wall in the opposite side then you can only open 90 degrees so making some loading or unloading of certain items difficult especially if you have drawers.

[@hillbillyinparadise]

Wow! what a unit! The condo was very nice too. I don't think you could find a better realtor for this series. On behalf of myself and your viewers, Thank you!! Gorgeous! Can't wait to see which one you pick. I'll take which ever one Suzan wants!

Can anyone see my comment ?

[@ste.ven.87]

I can’t stand the two tone tiled walls in the bathroom here. My favorite is City Garden tower with the new design throughout, large L shaped balcony, and amenities. A close second is Vee’s number one pick with the U shaped condo and amazing view. Unixx has the best view and pool area but the condo was average. Tough choices! The suspense is killing me way more than it should. Lol

[@grahamjohnson4702]

Just shows how important it is to go compare, 2 condos in the same building with different levels of equipment, but you could choose the second and spec it up to the level of the first for a couple of thousand baht and pay less for the term you rent, I know what I would do, but I'm still with Vee on my favorite because of location.

@Geo Geo that completely depends on what lifestyle you want, and what kind of state pension you might receive once you arrive at your pensionable age! Do you want to live within a few metres of the bar scene, or would you rather live 20 mins away, therefore not being tempted every day to throw money at that scene 24/7!

Wie immer super 🆒🆒🆒🙏🏻🙏🏻👍👍👍👍,the best Videos from Pattaya!!!

[@martinlucas3656]

17,000 almost half of what most older Aussies get in their aged pensions per month (40,000-50,000/month). For a condo in Pattaya South, a bit more than I would be prepared to pay after seeing the likes of New Nordic where I was offered a studio for 10,000 per month and even this was negotiable. Like all things personal taste, budget, desired facilities, location etc .. good to see what Lucas has explored and what values are about despite the flat market given almost no farangs are yet coming back to Thailand.

[@ericsorbier3392]

Surely a great place to live in.

[@paulhart8814]

I like that place, would be my 1st so far, oh hang on i'm a cheap charlie, looking forward to seeing the Soi 15 ones

[@Mrfrontrow]

Love this second place. I can't wait to come visit you. LOL

[@tonysadler2825]

I’ve had my eye (7 to 8 years in advance of my retirement) on Arcadia Beach resort, City Garden, Grand Avenue resort and the Urban Attitude! I know it a few years away, but I’ve been watching the prices drop approx 30% in the last 9 months, and it will be a long time before they start to climb. From my research, my favourite two are Grand Avenue and Arcadia, both due to the amenities and their respective locations. 14000 for a 45 sq metre condo appears to be the kind of rate that can be achieved, if my financial circumstances allowed me to be there next spring, I’d take one of those two!! Good vlog, especially for me due to my future plans, much much better than promoting your mates bars, not a fan of that at all... Cheers mate 👍👍

[@Panzercum69]

agree, Grand Avenue looks good

[@DaUloi]

The gym really is nice.

[@lostboi3974]

My condo that's paid off in south Florida a mile from the beach is $600 a month just if you add the HOA plus property tax and it's nothing compared to that. Wow what a vacation spot.

[@maureen8966]

Loved the 2nd condo can't wait to see which one you picked

[@LibertyLover5103]

Thank you again Lucas. The #2 unit today was by far the best yet. Price was good too. I was wondering that since Pattaya is really hurting now because of the Shutdown that many of these condo units may still drop a little more. Like the 17K Baht dropping to 14K to 15K.

[@MarkSmith.]

im glad its you going around with Susan i think i would have got a condo in every building so far lol she really is a real stunner with a great personality too is she single ?

[@benkemp1875]

Wow 22k is a lot of money for that first unit! Check out Riviera Jomtein or riviera wongamat condo apartments. For me they are the most superior in Pattaya. Especially the newly built jomtein one! Looks incredible!

I liked the size of the units but agree that it is a bad call to make you go back outside to enter your building after you've parked in a parking garage.

[@Y_Not1]

Great looking place. I see one of the other subs said this place has Fiber. That alone makes it worth the price. I like this place the best so far. They look very well made and I'd rather be in a 4 or 5 story building over a 20 floor building any day. Just a better quality of build. This place is stunning. Unless the next place is similar this would be it for me. No comparison to any of the other places you've shown us. I'd actually buy this place it's so nice. Floor space brand new 66 meters, no contest. Not even fair to compare this to the others. The gym is beast. OMG dude 17K a month ,Sold! My guess is that was a pre-sale price. They got in early.

[@bengunn4373]

[@soidogcowboy3282]

I lived on soi 15 for many years. The convenience is out of this world in my opinion. I find condos like Arcadia nice but a bit out of the way verse being right in the heart of the action so to speak. What's great about soi 15 is it's pretty quiet when you need it to be. I've seen that condo you're about to look at and I'm curious as to your thoughts. Great series.

[@earicome]

I stayed at the City Garden on Soi 15 on a one year contract. Will not post my thoughts here until Lucas has posted his.

[@eleanor4482]

Loved the first two bedroom but wish it was on a higher floor. You didn’t mention the gym at the second unit but it was beautiful there too and a lot cheaper.

[@johnveca2979]

If the second unit you were shown is 5000 baht less than the first, and they are almost identical, I would venture to say that the owner of the second unit is simply more motivated to get the place leased and under contract. I'd jump on it as it's the best unit you've shown us thus far and the price is spot on. That said, I know you've got other units to check out.

[@nh5551]

"So many nice things to look at ".....Like Susanne walking in front

[@arthurcrego8297]

My top choice for me is the 2nd apt. in today's video. Even with my finances I could afford it.

[@jimmyjimmy4286]

Soz R4K not so keen on that last place (honest opinion) i think the units themselves were fine/good, bit pricey perhaps, its more the outside, just too huge and enclosed for me and looked a little too 'disney design/stylised' for my tastes. There were some plus points tho the parking like you said, the newness, the gym, cleaning facilities and prob looks a lot better in the flesh. TV size great. I think im just not so keen on the really huge complexes they would get really busy at full occupancy i think, but probably pretty great choice right now... If you could get a unit facing outwards from the complex with sea or city views i reckon my opinion would change a lot. Shame you couldn't get to view one of those. The last unit was kinda half and half and that was definately the best of the lot in this vid in my opinion. Still very useful info R4K thanks a lot for sharing! All the best from the UK 🇬🇧

[@MissHealth2022]

Just remember when all the units are full and one million kids. And the gym is full. Like a small city and the pool full of people partying. quiet now but not when full. Big complexes down the road not good for living.

Hey Bruv, Out of all the condo's we have seen the 17,000 BHT would be the one I went for. I doubt very much you will find a property with as much floor space like this one for the price. I would hope to get the property for 15,000 BHT with a long term rental. Look forward to seeing the last of the condos on your next video, decision time!

[@TheMike0070]

Very interesting since I am also looking for a condo. I have a preference for Grand Avenue because of location in combination with size. The Base I stayed once but 27 m2 too small for 2 persons, bigger ones too expensive

[@randyl7354]

I think since the complex is unfinished I’d want more of a discount. 15-17 for either would be the starting point. More like 13-15 I’d be in. What’s higher up?

[@michaelg6641]

I'm assuming the windows open unlike some high hotels, that'd be a nice breeze.
