Langkawi & sthn Thailand booked solid
 

Just tried to book at a number of hotels on Langkawi for December. Appears there's a conference on there. LIMA05, something to do with aeronautics, and many places are booked solid. Finally found somewhere for 3 nights and then tried to book lovely boutique property on Koh Ngai, Thapwarin resort and it's booked solid too!

Last year had no problem in booking Krabi, Samui & Phuket for early December. Anyone thinking of going ought to get in and book now!

Langkawi is booked solid from the 4/12/05 to 11/12/05. You can find accomadation but the pickings are slim and cost 100 MYR a night and above! No budget hostels or B&B's avaialable at all.

i suspect they knew you were from OS and they just could not handle any more rable rousers...hahaha

your friend bob

Hi joolz63. We finally found a great place, Sunset Beach Resort for 160 RM a night.
And dear bob-I did not mention we're from OZ. I said we were yanks from Boston!

in that case you will be in a tent with an outhouse....but i guess in OS you are used to outhouses??

For heaven's sake bob. Most outhouses have been converted to inhouses and the previous outhouses are now used for lawn mower storage or as guestrooms for visitors from Boston.

give me the ol' two seater and a pint of booze if its cold....do i qualify for honorary os citizenship??

dream on Bob.

I was going to suggest langkawi Holiday Village, anyway where is the Sunset place? Mayflower are decent and reasonable for car rental, if you are itching for Thai food head to the Thai restaurant at the Pelangi.

Hey JamesA, tks for tips.
Sunset Beach Resort is on Pantai Tengah close by Langkawi Village Resort. Check out www.sunsetbeachresort.com.my. Excellent reviews on tripadvisor.com. 160myr per night for 2 incl bfast.

Location sounds quite good, and that price sounds ok too.
