Great video Doc I've see it on the maps all the time and it would put me closer to BKK which I would like to have excess too when needed it will definitely be a most see as I'm getting closer to coming to Thailand To find my sweet Spot to live. Hands down your channel is the best source of information for people like me who are planning to come live in Thailand Much different from like the 20 times since 2004 I been to Thailand and southeast Asia as a American Farang For the sun and fun those were great times to experience Thailand and southeast Asia
Thanks mate I'm glad I could be of help and it's good to hear that the videos are helping you with your decision on where to settle in Thailand.... And I absolutely love this area it could very well be my new slice of paradise.... Cheers 🍻
One thing I recommend is checking to see if you can rent the place for a month first to make sure that there aren't going to be issues with noise, location, etc. Yes, you can expect to pay a few thousand baht more for that month, but I think it is worth it.
Listen almost all of these places you can get on a month-to-month basis guys I'm telling you right now... 4 years living in Thailand I've never signed a lease once! With the exception of the time I wanted to make sure they didn't raise the rent on me for that really cool spot I had with the two bathrooms and I only did that for 3 months....
I've been looking at Rayong for the past 3 years... Again, the Doc providing the best content for people looking to retire and find a great life in Thailand. Keep it up!!!
Rayong is a great spot to retire to... Also mate I'm going to be releasing a video tomorrow that will blow your mind when it comes to how cheap the accommodations actually are in this area.... Seriously you will not believe it!
Looks very interesting, def on my list for my Thailand recon this year. Appreciate the work behind the scenes for the vids , it shows and pays offs .. Expands on my choices while I not there . Be well and stay healthy.
Thanks mate, I'm glad you enjoyed it. It’s a great feeling to hear it helps people make better choices... I really like this area and I'm going to be spending some extended time there in June and July.... Pretty much checking it out to see if it truly is my next slice of paradise.... Have a blessed day
Hi Dr Mark, we were planning to retire in Hua Hin until we saw this video , its a beautiful place. Only thing were worried about is if the locals speak English. Since the lack of foreigners theres no need for locals to learn English . Awesome video love the prices of the rentals
That is a good point! It's the same anywhere. Try to learn a few Thai phrases, it goes a long way! Here's the thing though, you'll always be able to find English speaking people, but you'll have a much more fulfilling experience if you learn some Thai.. Cheers
Absolutely love your delivery of the information… some times we Americans have to be hit over the head to realize that the USA is not all it’s cracked up to be… Thailand and Malaysia are pulling ahead… The Philippines has drawn me in due to the language barrier… Keep up the good work… I think you are awesome…
Hey John thanks brother listen you know I just want to give guys options and show that there's possibilities out there... I'm actually doing a video right now believe it or not where you can get a little studio unit apartment in this area for less than $150.... Isn't that crazy.. There's so much opportunity out there... Thanks for watching and commenting mate I truly appreciate that... I can say that's much I wouldn't worry about the language barrier here in Thailand, you can find people who speak English everywhere!!!!
Thank you again, so glad that you’re letting Americans know that we don’t have to take this crap we are being put through here. Doesn’t make any sense that people have to be homeless because of greed.
I love the Mae Pim area and so cheap. As for Koh Chang and the islands around it, much better than Phuket area. Not Tommy Tourist and so laid back. I will be going there after SongKran to relax and be kee keat 🍻🍻🍻
Man I'll tell you where you are at right now is fantastic as well but I'm going to tell you something Rayong is crazy beautiful.... Let us know what you thought of it brother!
Thanks Mark. Lucas moved to Rayong coast a year ago, tired of Pattaya's inflated housing prices. Similarly long-timer Tim left Phuket for Turtle Beach. Stay safe!
@whyhellotherewithdrmarksabean Mark, have you ever passed through Laem Chabong, ? I know it's a more industrial port but alot of expats from Japan live there....which is usorta off limits to any non-Japanese. It's prolly not beautiful at all. Didn't pass though Si Racha either between Pattaya and BKK . Just curious
It is next to impossible to get realtors here to work with you to allow you to show condos... They believe that you're going to steal their commission even though you explain to them that you only want content and that you will put their information in the video... It is next to impossible!!! I have been trying for years once in awhile you'll get one who's willing to do it but it's so rare... The only time they want to work with you is when they have a really expensive listing that nobody's going to buy or rent.... So for right now until I find a realtor here who is willing to trust me,,,, this is the best I can do sorry...
Thanks again! Hopefully you'll catch the insane video I'm releasing tomorrow about this area and just how cheap some of the condos are it will totally blow your mind.......
Ok now you gave me another thai destination to explore. Hua Hin in March. Maybe Rayong late summer early fall. 2 more north American winters and at least 8 months a year in Thailand.
Another great video! Can you tell me how far Rayong is from Hua Hin? I am visiting Hua Hin next month for 6 weeks and am really interested in checking out Rayong. Thx
Hey brother honestly it's about a six or seven hour taxi drive or you can take a bus to Bangkok to Pattaya and then over to Rayong.... But it's quite far even if you were driving a car yourself which I could not recommend because nobody wants to drive in Bangkok..... Lol Hopefully you enjoy your trip and if you do get the chance to go to Rayong,,,,, you'll never want to leave!
Great video Doc. Long time no see! I am thinking of Rayong. Close to Pattaya and Jomtien. Have you looked at the mainland across from Samui? I want to check that area out too.
I haven't really checked it out to be honest with you.... I will be heading there hopefully in early April to check out the Surat Thani area.... Have a blessed day
So, i have looked at prices for 4 guests on Airbnb for Phuket and the prices are out of control. What do you recommend as an alternative to this....if one wants to stay in Phuket.
And that's the thing mate anybody that's coming here and spending every waking minute in their condo see just wasting their days away.... The last one is pretty sweet though!
How long will you be staying in Pattaya? What type of fun and excitement are you looking for? Let me know and I'll see what I can do about recommending some spots......
@@whyhellotherewithdrmarksabean From 1-25 through 3-25. looking for a little beer, gym and mostly fishing the gulf of thailand. Yeah I like girls but not looking for the wild life. Rayong sound nice but Jomtian or Na Jomtian are good too. Thank you very much for responding. Oh I'm 69 years. My first stop will be Sutus Court 3. not where I want to stay.
That is a lot of money!! You can live like a king here with that kind of money. I am releasing a video that will shock you this weekend! Thanks for watching and commenting
me? When was the last time I was in The USA is a better question, and why would I be there? I've lived in Thailand for over 4 years and I am Canadian, not American......
As far as I know no you're not allowed to smoke weed in the hotels.... Some places will let you smoking on the balcony but in all honesty I don't think you should be.... But that's coming from someone who can't stand the smell of it so...... Lol Cheers mate 🍻
I know a lot of people smoke it out in the public sadly enough they smoke it right down on the beach which really sucks because you'll be sitting there and all of a sudden it'll waft over you.....
thumbnail said why are you still living in America? Like ALLLLLLL America ? Both continents ? this is like 325ish countries! having said that... I also am moving to The land of smiles
Well quite honestly most people know what I'm referring to and that's North America.... Kind of hard to fit too many words into a tiny little thumbnail if you know what I'm saying.... I think everybody got the point... I hope Lol I'm sure you'll enjoy getting over here trust me it truly is paradise... Have a blessed day!!!!
Please send me as much information on this area. I'm an older lady who is interested in a cheaper lifestyle. I currently live in Canada. Is this area convenient to shops and restaurants as well as grocery stores and how would would you get around other than scooter? Would really appreciate as much information as possible!!!
Hi Maria, The best thing to do is to add me to Facebook I'm the first Mark Sabean that pops up..... Or you can send me an email to tastytravels4u@gmail.com I would be more than happy to help you... Cheers 🥂

@whyhellotherewithdrmarksabean HI Mark, I wrote u on LINE - do u have the contact info on that last $315 condo?
One thing I recommend is checking to see if you can rent the place for a month first to make sure that there aren't going to be issues with noise, location, etc. Yes, you can expect to pay a few thousand baht more for that month, but I think it is worth it.
I'm planning to suggest this to landlords/agents but not sure if they accept such a trial period. I'm thinking about Jomtien, Hua Hin or Rayong.
Yeah, I think that's a good idea, cheers mate 🍻
And as I said in the video you definitely can rent month to month...
Cheers mate 🍻
Listen almost all of these places you can get on a month-to-month basis guys I'm telling you right now...
4 years living in Thailand I've never signed a lease once!

So you can recommend anybody at Rayong?

I've been watching Les from retired and living the dream.
He's got a ton of videos regarding Rayong as he lives there.
@ Thank you Scott Kelly 🙏
Rayong is a great spot to retire to...
Also mate I'm going to be releasing a video tomorrow that will blow your mind when it comes to how cheap the accommodations actually are in this area....
Seriously you will not believe it!
Do you mean recommend someone for a realtor?
Great video, Doc! That last condo for $315 is incredible.
Isn't that place nice!!!
The deals are insane
Have a blessed day
Great. You just raised the prices there
LOL
You give me way too much credit!
What are we gonna call it,,,, DR-OMICS

Sounds awesome and yeah this whole area is completely totally different than Phuket....
It's kind of what's drawing me here to be honest with you...
🤔
I plan to go there this weekend actually. I'm in Ban Chang, Rayong now but checking out the beach south there
Man I'll tell you where you are at right now is fantastic as well but I'm going to tell you something Rayong is crazy beautiful....
Let us know what you thought of it brother!
I´ll buy next beer 🍻 haven't thought about Rayong but it sound so lovely. Thanks for that Tipp again 🙏
Hope you enjoy it!
It's beautiful there Peter you should check it out.....
Cheers mate 🍻
Very interesting. Thanks
Glad you enjoyed it

Thanks Mark. Lucas moved to Rayong coast a year ago, tired of Pattaya's inflated housing prices. Similarly long-timer Tim left Phuket for Turtle Beach. Stay safe!

No I have not been through there yet, perhaps this summer I will when I do my bike tour to Rayong.....
You are correct Mark. That is why most rentals want two months deposit because they don't care if you stay or leave early
100%
It is so easy finding places to rent month to month here or anywhere in Thailand..
Cheers mate
Have a blessed day
How come you are not showing the video of the room ?
Have you been to to the condo or are you just looking on line ?

Honestly, every single day!
That last appointment was great, but $315. I’m hoping when I get there it’s still available.

How much is bus from rayon to pattaya?
Try 12Go that is the go-to app for buses trains planes automobiles you name it you can find it on 12GO
So, i have looked at prices for 4 guests on Airbnb for Phuket and the prices are out of control. What do you recommend as an alternative to this....if one wants to stay in Phuket.
Go on Facebook Marketplace or go on Agoda do not use airbnb!!!!!!!
We don't have remote income :/
That makes it a little bit difficult doesn't it.....
Looks like some good options in Rayon there doc, how far to jomtien ? 30k or less ?
It's about an hours drive by car about 1.5 by bike.... so pretty close really.
Mark, do you speak Thai? Because I have thought about living in Rayong, but I understand many Thai people don't speak English
Not as much as I should embarrassingly enough...
I really have to work on it...
Shameful
Mark, I think I like the last one. Some are a bit sparse, but like you said, you really aren't living in your room.
And that's the thing mate anybody that's coming here and spending every waking minute in their condo see just wasting their days away....
The last one is pretty sweet though!
