Anyone interested in a 4D/3N referral package to stay free at the Marriott Mai Khao Beach, in Phuket? This is a 2 bedroom villa that sleeps up to 6 so it's particularly great for families with children, especially the little ones as you can bring your helper too.


I am a member so I can refer friends for nothing; and seeing that the preview packages they offer here in Singapore are either paid or only for 1 night at the Marriott Singapore, thought I'd share a good thing with fellow moms here. They do have some terms and conditions like attending a 90 min presentation, but they dont't hard sell so dont't worry. And if you think about it, what's it for a 4 days free stay at a 5 star hotel worth over USD1500? You can check out unbiased travellers' reviews at Trip Advisor.

To book your free stay, email me at [email protected]. Thanks.

Bangkok is the most amazing place and very beautiful. I don’t know more about Hua Hin but I have heard that this is one of the best tourist spot and beat place to visit. I am also like to visit this place. Hope this will be the best place of Bangkok. So, visit this place and enjoy.

Huahin is a very relaxed place. I had been there twice and think it is much better than Phuket which is too commercialised with all the angmohs. You have to take into account the journey from bkk to huahin which is at least 3 hrs (with no stop). There is a shopping mall and 2 nite markets if I'm not wrong, a beach near the Sofitel hotel where you can ride the ponies. There are lots of shops offering massages mani & pedicures. Plenty of nice seafood and pizzas & spaghatti. You go there just to relax and do nothing else.

Hi leesf,

May I know how did you book your trips to Hua Hin? I don't see it being advertised as a tour destination by agencies nowadays. Is the place suitable for teens (ie. around 15yrs old)? What are the recommended activities to do there? Thanks.

I love bkk! Night bazaar Suam lum is closed. I went Pat pong but regretted going there coz the place is not only complicated and many scammer. The swindles is very experience many people got into their trap.

Hi


I am back from Hua Hin and bangkok. Overall my children enjoy their holiday at hua hin because we bring them to elephant ride and horse ride at beach.For Pula Waterfall, i find not very suitable for too young children. We only went for level 1 and give up because my sis and my children are too young to enjoy. Steep climbing. We even stayed 3 days at bangkok to shop. My hubby want to tailor his clothes. We saw Edmuand chen and Xiang Yun family at the shop.They are very friendly. For us ladies went over plantinum mall to shop and shop. Shop till we drop.

With children i think it will be great if we can arrange some places of interest for them to visit.
