Pattaya has long been one of the most popular places to settle or visit among Westerners. With a large expatriate community there are many bars and restaurants that are owned and run by foreigners to support the large numbers of expats and international tourists. This has meant that the locals are used to dealing with foreigners. This has brought plenty of new apartments to the market in Pattaya, and expectations of style and comfort are high.
It is a great place to live and relax. Location and lifestyle that are undoubtedly the two biggest selling points, sporting opportunities are both on land and water, and include some of the finest golfing, game fishing and scuba diving in Thailand. After dark, Pattaya offers all the allure and magic of a truly vibrant nightlife with a spectacular variety of restaurants, nightclubs, bars, discotheques, cocktail lounges and cabarets.
