Extended Stay in Laek Sak

GuestPoster010102Guest12 January 2025 16:56:43

Aloha.

I'm considering Laek Sak for an extended stay, perhaps 3 鈥� 6 months, maybe longer. And if not Laek Sak specifically, then somewhere in Ao Luek, fairly close by. I鈥檓 looking for an affordable place ($400 鈥� 500 US/mo), perhaps even a small Thai house built out over the water. I鈥檓 certainly open to suggestion. WiFi is a must and AC would definitely be preferable. Does anyone have connections in that area?

Also, having come from a maritime family on the Chesapeake Bay in the US, the allure of living in a small Thai fishing village on Phang Nga Bay is hard to resist. So I鈥檓 also considering renting or buying a small runabout, RIB or longtail boat, purely for recreational purposes, presuming I can obtain the proper licenses... if anyone has gone through that process.

If you wouldn't mind sharing your insights, I鈥檇 be very appreciative. 馃檹

Buying outright is not an option, legislation prevents foreign ownership. And then for 3 to 6 months buying should never be an option...

Start googling for locations, agents galore

@martinoo2002 ??

I said nothing about buying. I said "extended stay"... And again, I'm looking for locals and/or expats who have personal insight and connections.... Thanks tho
