Thailand Travel Guide – The Town Of Mae Phim

June 14, 2010 · Filed Under Travel 

You can get to the beach resort of Mae Phim easily from central Bangkok – it is less than two hours away. The nearby city of Pattaya attracts more tourists than Mae Phim, but the latter is more relaxed and more authentically Thai. Do not be fooled into thinking that because it is less crowded means that it has less to offer – far from it. It is rather a case of Mae Phim still being a relatively undiscovered, at least to those living outside of the country, gem on the east coast of Thailand. Affluent Thais have been visiting Mae Phim for a long time, as they have been all to aware of what it has to offer. The beaches have always been beautiful, and there is now first class accommodation and attractions to supplement them. Mae Phim offers wonderful beaches, with white sand and clear blue water. Beautiful beaches are actually pretty common in Thailand, but they are rarely as unspoiled as the ones that you will find in Mae Phim. The local tourism authority highly values it beaches and places the cleanliness of them at the top of its list of priorities. As for accommodation options, you will not be disappointed. From simple guest-houses to luxurious hotels, there is something for everyone in Mae Phim. You might want to consider a vacation rental home. These properties are fully furnished homes that are fitted out with all the mod-cons that you could want. Several bedrooms, private swimming pools and landscaped gardens are all commonplace. On arrival, and having unpacked your bags, you should take a stroll around the town center. It is charming and authentic, and has everything that you could want. It has completely modern amenities, but they sit alongside the traditional Thai aspects of the town, rather than dominating them.
