Q:Planning to visit Thailand for 4 days in early November 2008. Can anyone advise which area is better, Phuket or Pattaya? Can you recommend a nice resort located on the beach?
A:We'll need more information in order to be helpful:
What are you looking for in a beach location?
What is your price per night for a hotel?
Are these the only two beach areas you are considering?

A:for 4 days you have limitations...phuket is a fly situation (1 hour flight but 3 hours additional for logistics) and pattaya you can drive to in 2 hours or less...
i'd stay in bkk for the whole time at a nice hotel with a fantastic pool: marriott, hilton, sheraton or peninsula....

A:Thanks for your responses Kathie and rhkkmk.
As for Kathie's questions:
1. Looking for a resort with an outside restaurant on the beach. A clean beach that steers the vendors away from the tourists. Nice rooms in the $50 to $75 range. Fairly close to the nightlife. Phuket and Pattaya are not the only areas I'm considering. I'm open to all suggestions, but I don't want to have to jump on another plane after our arrival in Bangkok. A 2-3 hour drive to a resort is acceptable.

The beach environment is important. We're not so much into water sports, but we did want to relax on the beach most of the day before exploring the night life in the evenings.

A:If you want a drive-able beach, consider Hua Hin/Cha Am area as well.
Take a look at www.sawadee.com for hotel ideas. They are the booking service I use for Thailand. The prices generally include tax and service (which otherwise add 17% to your bill) and often the rates include breakfast.
