  • The madness of The Phuket Beach Clubs At Bangtao.
    Bangtao is perhaps the worst run down area of Phuket, Fishing villages at each end and a main road that is still under construction, Yet it is home to this utter madness of these beach clubs, Bangtao Phuket Thailand

    £50 isn't the just for the sunbed though,it also includes £25 food & beverage credit if you had read the sign in full, its a top end beach area so not exactly expensive if you are on holiday for a couple weeks.

      2 sunbeds & a parasol cost more than £25 on Alicante beach.

      So 25 quid just for the sunbed. This is Thailand... If you think this isn't expensive then you're part of the problem of stupid high prices. Ask a Thai if 1000 baht is cheap . 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

    That’s just it Sean… there’s plenty of people out there who make a ton of money & they don’t know what to do with it all. When you make $125,000 or more a year, $50 spent on that is not a problem

  • @VictorHenderson
    @VictorHenderson Před 8 měsíci +5

    Ugh... prices like this are exactly why I do Lanta in semi-low season. Less than 1,000 baht a day will get you a room on the beach with the added bonus of not many tourists crowding the beach.

  • @stevens8785
    @stevens8785 Před 8 měsíci +4

    What an excellent video buddy. Great that they let you into these places and show case them. Free adverising for them and some are smart enough to realise that and even ham it up with all the big smiles. Crumpet everywhere too. Extravagant prices for sure but I guess groups of people share the cost making it still very expensive but one of those one time, I can say I have done it occasions we tend to do once in a blue moon. Awesome!! Great work Sean. 🤩

  • @Jimmy-lb1yc
    @Jimmy-lb1yc Před 8 měsíci +13

    It's not £50 just for a sunbed though is it! You get £25 worth of food and drink for that and it is a beach club in the most expensive part of Phuket. It's to keep the trash out and the tight people

    It’s a Look at me I’ve got money mentality with these beach clubs . People are willing to pay out and then post it all over Social Media to make themselves look good. Personally i wouldn’t pay that kind of money. Not knocking it each to their own. I prefer to see what goes on on the real world. Rather than sitting on a lounger all day pay excessive amounts to be at a private beach club with over priced beer. 🤷‍♀️

    Bang Tao looks pretty up market. Just watched an episode of House Hunters Int where a couple rented a small 2 bed house there, with a small pool in 2022 for US$1000 a month. Which probably ain't too bad after seeing that resort and beach. But the price has likely gone up a lot since then. 👍

  • @jayma1960
    @jayma1960 Před 8 měsíci +2

    The original Catch used to be just a short walk from where you opened up the beer. As you said the clubs at Surin were ordered to demolish as they were on public land. I wonder whose land they are on now, in Bangtao. Imagine those fancy looking overpriced clubs exposed to 5-6 months of salty monsoon winds and heavy rains. Could be hard to maintain in the long run. But the thais are not interested in the long run anyway, its all about quick money. I don't now. Not my kind of places anyway. Surin beach still looks pretty good though. Thanx for sharing! And skol!

    Sean, like Johnny Rotten teeth, things change quickly. All we are used to can change when u turn ur head. Im no beach club person, who will pay those prices, I value price for ur earned dollar, worked 35 years to earn pension working on shit tards and arse holes, ur outfit top notch mate, totally agree, why waste money when u can get cheaper food and booze on ur own, then have same experience,
    Take care Sean.

    the only benefit of thailand is cheap rent, food isnt cheap enough, clothes arent cheap unless u want knock off shwag, the women of the night are now all 5s and so lugly with the smart girls selling it online , its a overpriced , run its course place, its for female backpackers to spend 3 weeks and then fly somewhere else, its not longer got vibes or any thing of a escape and its not cheap after rent which is huge but thats it.
