Practical Information

Just a short note to let the world know that Patong Beach, and others nearby, has recovered immensely from the recent tsunami. Although the media has portrayed Patong, and Phuket in general, as a completely devastated region is far from the actual truth. Notwithstanding the fact that this area was hit hard by the recent event, it has bounced back with a new conviction to attract those that that have heeded to the mainstream media and either cancelled previous plans to visit, or are reluctant to make new plans.

Patong Beach was not completely decimated. With respect to those that have perished and those whom have yet to be found, Patong Beach is continuing daily life as closely to normalacy as possible. This area of Phuket needs the tourism industry to survive and to ensure a strong ecomony. Without this backbone, this region and its people will suffer exponentially since the tsunami. Its critical that you book your vacation here and help the rebuilding. The rates have been dropped in some cases to below believeable prices, but this is a strong urge to bring back the industry that these people need to sustain their normal lives.

Besides, this is truly a paradise to which should not be passed up. And this may be the best time to visit!
