In today's video, I'm going to give you a tour of my very affordable beachfront condo here in
Jomtien Pattaya Beach Thailand so let's go what is going on youtube greetings from beautiful Thailand
i am here at my apartment in central Pattaya and today i'm moving over to Jomtien i want to
be closer to the beach i want a more laid-back beachfront style lifestyle so that's what we're
doing today we're going to head over there and i'll give you a tour of that apartment
i've actually really loved living here in central Pattaya you have like everything at
your fingertips here you have as many restaurants as much street food as you want there's some great
malls here if you're into the bar scene when the bars open you can just walk right out the door
and be at all the bars but it's a little bit too busy for me i'm looking for more of a barefoot
beach style type of place and so i found a place like that it's at the end of beach road in Jomtien
and i'm really excited to share this condo i found over there so let's head over that way
all right so before i show you the inside of my building which is right behind me here
i wanted to show you one of the biggest reasons i rented this place
so there is this just massive beach walk it goes miles down that way
and miles down that way so i just envisioned myself out here going for a jog early in the
morning and then in the evening right now it's nice and windy you've got the breeze coming off
the ocean you got the sun setting just walking down here getting some street food there's all
kinds of street food vendors as you move up and down the beach here there's all kinds of families
just chilling on the beach it has a much different vibe than where i was before so i was in Pattaya
central before now i'm in i'm still in Pattaya beach but i'm in Jomtien and i'm at the very
end of Jomtien beach road so yeah it's just such a different vibe it's much more laid back here
more barefoot beach vibe which is what i enjoy so let's get inside the apartment before this sunset
happens and maybe we can capture it from the uh from the condo i'll show you the two pools
there's one on the lower level and then one on a on the fourth level i believe there's also a
gym a sauna an entertainment room that i'll show you and then we'll jump up and i'll show you the
apartment all right let's go all right so here's the first pool this one's on the very bottom level
there's like a little kiddie pool right here it's not a hot tub you don't want a hot tub in
in Thailand you don't see them very often and then you have sort of an infinity pool here as
well looks almost looks like the the pool drops off into the ocean but you got the bushes there
got a bunch of really good seating that's one thing when you rent a place
in Thailand that i've noticed is many times nobody uses the pools so you have the pools to yourself
or with very few other people often so this is kind of cool to have this pool here and then
you'll see back here this is the shorter building and then there's the taller building in the back
i live in the taller building you have a little outdoor shower here so you can wash yourself off
before and after got the little buddhist shrine that's common in front of almost every building
but let's go up and take a look at the other pool okay so this is the fourth floor over here
is the infinity pool and some other things i'll show you that in a second but if you get out of
the elevator and go the other way towards the mountains and the rain forest you've got this
really cool little seating area up here you can just you know chill with friends it's really windy
up here so it's nice and cool even for Thailand and you're nice and shaded back here as well
so that's pretty cool and there's more of a seating area over that way that's a nice little
benny this little area has an entertainment center a steam room and all kinds of other
little things i'll show you that here you can feel that wind coming through
someone in there swimming right now but over this way is the entertainment room so
it has all the entertainment stuff any bachelor would want in his house at the foosball table if
you like foosball smash that thumbs up button pool table look it's all set up and ready to go you can
see the sun's going down right now so it's kind of bright in here but that's kind of cool just coming
here play a game of pool pretty cool all right let's go see the second pool in this building
it's kind of a little small infinity pool it's long there's actually a guy out here swimming laps
right now so i don't want to disturb him too bad but i'll kind of show you here take off my shoes
we'll walk out this will weigh it out so you can kind of see how the pool yeah
they just you know chill here
and watch the sunset hopefully it's not too bright you can see the sun's
getting ready to set over there probably about another half an hour
all right and then there's as you can see a rooftop garden well let's check
that out a little seating area right here sit here and overlooks the ocean that way
you guys know Mr Mitch he's actually in this same building
oh here's a good view of the infinity pool
he's in the same building and he looks that way so he's got an even better view than me i think
it's uh he looks towards Cambodia and i look towards Pattaya beach which you'll see in a minute
when i give you a tour of my apartment and then you've got this nice little garden area up here
a bunch of seating areas just like in the back
see here you walk across this little bridge right there's the infinity pool when you're
in the pool it almost looks like the ocean connects to the pool it's really cool
and then you got this little area here to come and
just chill it looks like there'd be putt-putt golf here but there isn't
so hopefully it's not too washed out from the sun it's a nice nice visual over here with the
sunset coming but you can see here's the other pool that we just went to
down there and there's the ocean there's the sun getting ready to set over there's the island of
cologne from that video i did with chocolate man in Thailand and then here's the building
48 floors i'm on the 36th floor
um i'm not going to tell you what floor Mr Mitch is on but it's higher than mine
but yeah how cool is that
all right let's head up to the apartment and take a look all right
let's go in and check out the place it's actually sunset right now so hopefully
the light is good in here you can see there's plenty of natural light you got all these windows
but let me turn around here and we'll start the tour as if you're entering the door here we've
got kind of this Japanese motif over here with the bonsai tree kind of reminds me of karate kid
or something like that and this is the kitchen so you've got a typical Thai style refrigerator it's
kind of small by western standards but for a guy like me that only puts drinks and maybe some fruit
in it no big deal the great thing about Thailand is you can eat out every single meal it's actually
cheaper to eat out than to buy food and make it yourself i know that sounds kind of crazy but it's
true so there is no oven here which doesn't bother me at all because i don't plan on doing any baking
there is a two burner stove here if i wanted to cook something in a microwave
in my last place i did not use the microwave at all it's you know every meal is two or three
dollars it's an amazing meal so there's no reason to save leftovers and have to reheat something
you can just go get it fresh so this is kind of common in Thai households the washing machine
will be in the kitchen and in most asian countries there is no dryer just a washing machine and
people dry their stuff outside you'll see there's a drying rack out there but we'll see that in a
moment there's a little dining area here and you can actually extend it so it'll come out even
farther than that so if you need that space you've got it and then we've got the living room here
kind of an ikea setup looks like a leather couch but i'm pretty sure that's fake leather
but you know whatever there's a lot of nice rugs in here too which i really appreciate a
lot of these airbnbs don't have rugs and i really appreciate a good rug uh this one actually came
with netflix installed on it and whoever owns this place their account so i figured i'd just throw
that on for a little bit of background beauty uh comes with wi-fi as well wi-fi is included it's
50 down 30 up so pretty good all right let's swing around here we'll come back out here in a second
let's go check out the bedroom one thing you'll notice here this wall right here slides all the
way across and um basically breaks it up into two rooms the reason for that is there are two ac's in
here there's one here and there's one over here so if you only want to use one save electricity
you can close it off in whichever room you're in you can turn that ac on and like i mentioned save
some electricity all right here's the bedroom nice big bed got the natural light coming in
through here you even got a picture of new york you can actually see where i used to live i slept
right about there in hell's kitchen kind of cool and all the windows in here open and i'm
on the 36th floor so it's pretty cool up here with the ocean breeze and you can open up all
of these windows and i'll show you the sliding glass door in a moment that you can open up
but you'll see from the bed you have this just you know amazing view laying in the bed
all right let me show you this here real quick this is one of my favorite little spots here
i've been sitting on this thing like constantly today
so you can sit here and just watch the sunset uh the clouds are kind of hiding the sun it's
actually sunset right now but you can just sit here and relax you know watch people out there
riding around on jet skis it's pretty awesome but look how beautiful that is that island over there
that's the video i shot with chocolate man on the island of Koh Lan that's Koh Larn so i got an
amazing view of colon and i can see the sunset set every day by colon that's pretty awesome
all right we'll come back to that let me show you the bathroom here so this isn't the actual airbnb
i rented they had some issues with it so they put me in another one if you remember the pictures i
showed the shower was clear so you could kind of see it from the bed this one has a frosted
shower so you know a little bit of privacy it's only mean here so i don't really care
but back here there's no like traditional closet but this is good enough for me
got the unbound moreno hanging up there this looks like a little vanity or something i'll
just you know set my underwear and socks there probably all right here's the shower
i don't need a bathtub i prefer just a rainfall shower enclosure like this this is perfect if i
ever build a place in the us i'm gonna steal ideas from asia i just prefer asian style bathrooms
got a little sink here and a medicine cabinet that opens up and here is the bathroom i mean nothing
really to show here everyone likes when i say bum gun so there's a bum gun over there i don't
know why we don't have these in the u.s we should and come back this way you'll see Unbound Merino.
well let's go let's check out the balcony here so what's really cool about this balcony is
you can open it all the way up i mentioned you can open up all the windows but you can open
this thing up all the way and you can open it up either way all the way too which is kind of cool
so let me back up and show you that so you've just got this huge you know huge view and all the air
coming through especially when you have all these windows open you get really good airflow through
here but let's walk out here and check this out so we're right at we're right after sunset actually
so you'll see over here is the city of Pattaya that's where i lived before my apartment is
somewhere over there you can actually see the ocean over there uh it's probably not picking
it up that well on this camera but that's all ocean over there and then it comes around this
corner here and then this is Jomtien beach road and then you've got just this amazing amazing view
of Koh Lan over there sunsets every single day all kinds of like beach style eateries down there
and then along the beach road are all kinds of street food vendors which is also really cool so
so i'm pretty happy obviously so this place was 510
um a month for two months so a thousand twenty dollars that includes wi-fi and water the only
thing i have to pay for is electricity it'll probably be somewhere around 40 to 50 dollars
for the month so about what five thirty five thirty five a month something like that so
that's pretty good i'm pretty happy about that um if you wanted to rent this place long term
for six to 12 months you could rent this unit for 360 a month plus electricity somewhere between you
know 25 and 50 a month so that's pretty freaking awesome if you ask me so what do you think
did i get a good deal here could you stay here relax in this little tiny apartment with
this ocean view behind here would you need something bigger or maybe the heights would
maybe the heights would scare you a little bit i don't know comment down below and if you enjoyed
