You found an epic resort in Patong. So many pools and so many things to do! You drove right by our yacht on the jet ski you did not stop to say hi. 555. You didn't see all the girls waving at you Paddy. Excellent beaches. Great video Paddy. Looking forward to new videos were ever you go next!
Love this video Paddy! We drove by and walked by the Four Points all the time when we were in Phuket the entire month of February this year…I’m glad that you had featured it on this video! Now that we know how cool it really is😊 This is bringing back fun memories of the place & we sure long to head back again! Thanks for sharing another “Next Level“ video 🙏
Just returned to Australia after a months holiday in Phuket, Krabi, Koh Lipe and Chiang Mai. Almost stayed at Four Points but will definitely go there next time! Love Thailand, on this occasion really enjoyed my stay in Patong, it can get a bad wrap but I don’t mind it at all…
Wow. It seems strange to have Paddy Doyle in my old home for many years. Strange in a good away (-: Admittedly, I find it hard to believe that in all your years in the Land of Smiles that you've never been to Phuket before. Did I hear that right? People constantly say Patong is very expensive, but away from the upmarket venues it's no more expensive than any of the prime Thailand tourist destinations. And if you go back a few streets the whole pricing for everything changes. I love Koh Samui but Patong not only has a nice beach but also the ever changing Bangla to keep nighttime ventures always exciting. There's also quieter bar areas around if you need them. And of course Phuket is not just Patong. Phuket has over 30 beaches each beach with its own distinct personality. Like Kamala beach and Kata beach to name a few. ENJOY Mr Paddy.
The best time to visit Koh Samui for great beach weather, less rain, and less crowds is between February and June, September, and early December. Of these, February and March are the driest months of the year while May and September might see a few heavy showers.
I planned a trip to Phuket, Koh Samui, Ratchapraha Lake, Trang , ko muk and back to Phuket in July to celebrate my 50th, I had started to think maybe I shouldn't, after seeing this and remembering the times I have had in Phuket, it is back on. I know July is not the best time. Thank you.
This vlog brings back memories of my visit there back in 2003. Fabulous that it has fully recovered from the tsunami and Covid! I have some wild memories of my walk down Soy Bangla!
PADDY DIDN'T SHOW YOU EVERYTHING. Wonderful video. Tastefully done. I sent it to my Mom and she said: "After watching the video I wanted to go to Phuket. But knowing what I already know I WOULDN'T". Four Points looks great. I didn't know it was such a nice hotel. And I will have to try the Pad Thai stall. I usually ignore all of that street food because of hygiene. But you really did a service for that guy! :)
So happy to see you in Phuket. I went there for 5 days (too short i know) in late Dec and it exceeded my expectation with its variety of things to do and see, not only in Phuket but the nearly area like Phi Phi and Samet Nangshe viewpoint. I couldnt stop thinking about my Phuket trip and watching your video of Phuket just simply makes me happy.
Sup Paddy, yeah man Four Points by Sheraton Patong is a really nice hotel property. I had stayed there in Sep 2021 as part of the Phuket Sandbox. Great video! I wanna come back to visit Phuket again. Congrats on finishing your long journey...
I found when I rented a car and drove around Phuket I was so easily able to find quiet places to stop and relax. Has it picked up much since January as it was dead quiet when I was driving around Phuket in Jan 2022.
Another great video Paddy, saw the Simon Cabaret show there a few years back, great entertainment. Love the little places you find to eat and drink...if you are back at the Amari, Ao Nang, we are staying next door at Dusit D2. Hopefully see you around 😁👍
Cracking vlog Paddy. Pleased to see you were well aware of the jet ski scams that happen regularly there at Patong Beach pointing out the condition of it before you started out :) You came across as someone with the weight of the world off of their shoulders and that is totally expected after 15 months and 77 provinces behind you. So happy and so relaxed. Congratulations Paddy. In time I will be revisiting your adventures from the very start. See if the thumbs up clock could be reset and we can start all over again :)
Hiya Paddy, not sure how I missed this. Lovely place to stay. Breakfast looked so good. Wicked fun on the jetski. Beautiful sunset. That shake was huge. Nice touch, the free passionfruit. Nice service. Table and chair. Beautiful. Your dinner looked tasty. Great video. Always good vibes. Thank you for sharing. Have a lovely Friday and weekend.
Hello Paddy awesome journey around Patong great accommodation watermelon juice is a health healer great to see Patong busy and alive. Thank you for sharing.
What a beautiful beach , four points looks lovely definitely a nice play to stay . Good location away from the crazy noise . The weather looked awesome as well . Breakfast great way to start the day but that looked insane. Wow huge beach 🏖 that’s the life on the JetSki in beautiful Thailand 🇹🇭
Love Phuket,Love Patong. I've had some great times there. I like to use Phuket/Patong as my base when travelling around SE Asia. I'm not into the haters, horses for courses I reckon. And for me it has the perfect ballance of 'Absouloutely anything at any time, to suit all tastes and budgets.' Its great 👍 it really is thanks Paddy..
If you decide to come the the Philippines we'd be happy show show you some of the best adventure destinations in and around Cebu. Can also help with a bit of culture and history.
Another awesome video Paddy - but be careful mate with running tours ! I know someone who was deported for doing similar- it’s frowned upon by immigration
Yes mate, hit the beach for some cheap street food, thats what we did, you can also go to the local markets at some days to get those nice Thai delectables 😋 Anyhow, still looks the same at pating as backnin 2014 and 2017. Back in 2017 i was a 10 days near Karon beach and we Explorer the island by bike, taxi and bus. Such a amazing peace of Thailand 👊 old phuket town i a not to miss place with so many great street vendors and beautifull architecture. Thanks for thsi one and as always Paddy, C Ya in the next one, cheers 🙌🍻
Out of everything, the clip that I started salivating at the most is the baked beans on toast, with 2 fried eggs and sausages. BREAKFAST OF CHAMPIONS right there!!!!
Three of my best holidays to Thailand was spent in Patong years ago but the prices on almost everything has skyrocketed since then especially Bangla rd ,But i do miss the place .But you made the jet ski hire out a doddle Paddy .But it's far from that on what i witnessed a few times whilst spending my days on the beach 🤦♂️.To anyone thinking about it .Take photos of the jet ski and fully inspect it in ''Full view '' of the Thai guys, and rub your hands over the thing where you think there might be a cover up paint job that gets washed off during the ride .Then you will be ok .Massive fines on so called damage often happens and the police are often in on it .Be warned .Sorry Paddy🙏 but i had to say because it's not nice to watch people getting ripped off 😏🤷♂️Loved watching your journey mate .Thanks 🙏
Awesome video. I have been to Phuket many times, also trained at Tiger Muay Thai. Personally I like the Karon beach and Kata beach. The duck at Patong shopping centre is the best duck we had. Will be going back soon.
Paddy I miss our road tripping together. I see you will be leading tours in Phuket now. I hope you will still be travelling around. I really sense you are speaking with new energy new confidence since you completed your 77 province tour. You are a maturing career person, and your touring has helped you to grow as a person. All is good. I again say I miss our road touring. PEACE
Awesome video!!! What camera gear are you using for your shots? The POV shots of you on your bike and walking to the street food are on a GoPro with a chest strap are they not?
I bet the Pina Coladas in the Four Points are better than the ones you had in Rawai Paddy;) I can’t believe I bumped into you twice on the same day in Phuket Town.
liked your video) Suggest you to take a jets tour. It about 5-6h and the price is about 7000THB, but it worth the hype) Can you film good and cheap cafe and restaurants in Patong? It would be really useful) Looking forward to hearing from you!)
So cool to see it alive again, I went in November and was still very quiet! - Do you have Freedom beach on your list? Nice secluded beach. I liked Kata too when I phuket.
Come Travel With Me To PHUKET - trips.trovatrip.com/trips/thailand-with-paddy-doyle-dec-2022
When did you visit? I'm thinking of visiting in a few weeks for 5 to 6 days but read its Moonsoon season.
as a long time Patong visitor it still amazes me the way the Thais will accommodate you for the Pad Thai sunset with a plastic table, Well done Paddy
You found an epic resort in Patong. So many pools and so many things to do! You drove right by our yacht on the jet ski you did not stop to say hi. 555. You didn't see all the girls waving at you Paddy. Excellent beaches. Great video Paddy. Looking forward to new videos were ever you go next!
hahaha sorry I didn't see you on the boat!
We kinda need a Paddy meets the boat owners video , it’s work Paddy , someone has to do it 🙏🏼❤️

Brought back memories of phuket trip in 2019 . Good to see things are back .

All the Chiang Mai burning season refugees there in March-April.

Nice drone shots. Patong beach is my fav place to go running in the morning and watch the sunrise.
You are definitely from England if that is your favorite breakfast....Look like nice place to take a break from all your travelling.
I've been to Phuket and miss it so much, but I think in a couple of months I may head out there with the wife.
Sup Paddy, yeah man Four Points by Sheraton Patong is a really nice hotel property. I had stayed there in Sep 2021 as part of the Phuket Sandbox. Great video! I wanna come back to visit Phuket again. Congrats on finishing your long journey...

WOW paddy amazing place love the shirt by the way . Look forward to the next one 👌👍
My boy was literally conceived on that beach, hes 9 weeks old now, Love Patong xxx
What a place, epic is the only description I think that covers it
and one day when you have that yacht you will throw rocks at those pesky jetski's who come and spoil your tranquillity haha
Had many many chilled afternoon at four points great place to chill out during sunset
Surin beach is my favorite... Nice snorkeling as well there.
The shake and pad Thai looked so good! This might a daft question but do you ever put a lock on dreamy? Is there much bike theft over there?
Thanks for the tour paddy, living the dream, regards from dreary old England 🍺🍺👍
Brings back memories paddy..this is where I met my wife 3 yrs ago..mollys tavern my friend dave bar..does great English breakfast and Sunday roast 😋
Love Phuket,Love Patong.
I've had some great times there.
I like to use Phuket/Patong as my base when travelling around SE Asia.
I'm not into the haters, horses for courses I reckon. And for me it has the perfect ballance of 'Absouloutely anything at any time, to suit all tastes and budgets.' Its great 👍 it really is thanks Paddy..
Thank you for this little tour. Planning to go there this June.
I can tell from the look that is one of the best PadThai
Hey Paddy thanks for the video👍 Looks like Thailand is back in full force!!!!
brought back great memories mate 2018 i did do Phuket, Patong wow!
Ooo your tour in December looks good Paddy, Patong is a super fun destination!
If you decide to come the the Philippines we'd be happy show show you some of the best adventure destinations in and around Cebu. Can also help with a bit of culture and history.
Nice vlog! The hotel looks really good! Awsome sunset!
Awesome video! Can't wait for my honeymoon in June and now I'm considering staying at the Four Points just because of the honeycomb!
Beach looks pretty nice. Shame about the noisy road between the hotel and beach. Watermelon shake and pad Thai classic 👍
Another awesome video Paddy - but be careful mate with running tours ! I know someone who was deported for doing similar- it’s frowned upon by immigration
Thats what i call a 5 star Dinner...
Great video Paddy, Patong looks so different since we was their maybe 6 years ago! Looks much more built up.
Yes mate, hit the beach for some cheap street food, thats what we did, you can also go to the local markets at some days to get those nice Thai delectables 😋
Anyhow, still looks the same at pating as backnin 2014 and 2017. Back in 2017 i was a 10 days near Karon beach and we Explorer the island by bike, taxi and bus. Such a amazing peace of Thailand 👊 old phuket town i a not to miss place with so many great street vendors and beautifull architecture.

Phuket itself has many interesting places to vist
Best period end of november-begin of december for me!
Good vibes Paddy 👌. Didn't you do the artificial surfing in Bangkok with the budgetteers long time ago? With lots of free beer
Out of everything, the clip that I started salivating at the most is the baked beans on toast, with 2 fried eggs and sausages. BREAKFAST OF CHAMPIONS right there!!!!

Looks relaxing, the pad Thai looked awesome.
It was!
Nice I’m planning to come to Thailand maybe next year
Wow looks beautiful! The beaches remind me of Maui. I miss it
Awesome video. I have been to Phuket many times, also trained at Tiger Muay Thai. Personally I like the Karon beach and Kata beach. The duck at Patong shopping centre is the best duck we had. Will be going back soon.
Great viddie boyo
Bloody hell Paddy you learnt to drive a jetski ...
Hi
Thank you so
Yes i like puket
Next time go ....to puket 😁😁😁
Please Paddy make some more video about Phuket ..khop khun maak krap 🙏🙏
Paddy I miss our road tripping together. I see you will be leading tours in Phuket now. I hope you will still be travelling around. I really sense you are speaking with new energy new confidence since you completed your 77 province tour. You are a maturing career person, and your touring has helped you to grow as a person. All is good. I again say I miss our road touring. PEACE
Did you take the HONDA Dreamy from Bangkok to Phuket? How long were you traveling there?
Great vlog mate! I’ve missed getting down to Phuket for a recharge. Looks almost full noise busy.
Articulate delivery once again. Always a pleasure to check in with your adventures.
well presented !
Hey Paddy I’ve just been to Phuket about a week ago, if you have time please go to a view point called “Promthep cape” you won’t regret it :)
I'm planning to live near La Wai Beach in Phuket for a month this winter.
That’s a lot of fun .. Thanks for sharing!! 😊
Omg im wo happy i will be in Phuket in march its my first time. Thanks for this video. Is 13days good enough for Phuket?❤
2 weeks is plenty, maybe enough time to explore other areas t
Not a fan of the jet ski's myself. They are noisy and sometimes drop fuel in the water.
Awesome video!!! What camera gear are you using for your shots? The POV shots of you on your bike and walking to the street food are on a GoPro with a chest strap are they not?
Heading to Phuket in December/January. Would love to stay at the Four Points but it's $200 USD per night since it's peak season then 😬
After living 23 years in Patong I am happy to be in Isaan now. Good to be off the island.
I bet the Pina Coladas in the Four Points are better than the ones you had in Rawai Paddy;)
I can’t believe I bumped into you twice on the same day in Phuket Town.
You Are A Real James Bond 🎉on your Jet Ski ⛷️
It's so good to see things looking 'touristy' again!
Loved that into!
5 Star Marine? Didn't see Thailand Rob out there did you? He just posted a video featuring them.
liked your video) Suggest you to take a jets tour. It about 5-6h and the price is about 7000THB, but it worth the hype) Can you film good and cheap cafe and restaurants in Patong? It would be really useful) Looking forward to hearing from you!)
Just curious…1,500 Baht (equivalent to $40.98 U.S.) for 30 minutes of jet ski on the beach? Did I see it correctly?
oh, how I miss it!
Please come back to Thailand Paddy and start epic adventure 2
Wow, looks pretty normal there. Pre-covid almost.
OOOH NOO! You have cheated on dreamy with Jet-ski.. bad boy!!! jijiji!!! Again nice video and TY. Cheers!
Pad Thai and shake 20 bucks in the states and not as good. Can't wait to arrive there.
So cool to see it alive again, I went in November and was still very quiet! - Do you have Freedom beach on your list? Nice secluded beach. I liked Kata too when I phuket.
NIYO,S KEBAB BEST KEBAB I HAVE EVER HAD , I WAS THERE IN FEB 2020 :)
I was there Feb/ March 22 ! Was great fun ! But way too expensive, compared to Bangkok or Pattaya! 🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭😱🎉🙏
oh so lovely nice spirit fine thx 😀👍😍😎😀🌴
was wondering about the Sheraton Four Points? How many stars would you give it? Is it quiet enough at night when the party crowd comes back?
Most of the party crowd will be staying at adults only hotels if they have any sense!!
Disappointed you didn’t call the jet ski Wet Dreamy. 😔
nice sun glasses too
Love me some patong
