Another holiday has arrived, and my body is sending me signals that it's time to relax.
After a wild ride around Koh Mak last week, my skin is fried, but my body is still up for anything.
This trip, let's go for a "chill, chill trip"... focusing on eating, sleeping, and sightseeing...
And there is probably no other place as suitable as this..."Pattaya".

Day 1:
10:00 AM: Embarking on a Leisurely Journey to Pattaya
Departing from Bangkok at a leisurely pace, we aim to reach Pattaya around noon for a specific purpose.
"Tanoi Tiew Ruea Chamoang" - Branch 3
**Coordinates: Opposite Wat Sutthawat School** (Nong Prue, Pattaya)
The ambiance inside the restaurant
The main menu here is noodle soup, available in both regular bowls and the restaurant's signature "basin noodle soup."
Boat noodles in a basin bowl for 59 baht.
Seafood Yen Ta Fo in a basin bowl, priced at 99 Baht.
It's a bit large. Here's a size comparison with an iPhone 5.
Not only is it large, but the machine comes fully loaded, and most importantly, the taste is delicious.
You can ask this gentleman here. ^V^
Let's go!
The portion size is generous and offers excellent value for money. For ladies, it is recommended to share one bowl between two people to avoid overeating.
1:00 PM. After filling our stomachs, we headed to our destination. And here we are! "Pattaya".
The hotel is located in North Pattaya, Soi 3. The soi is a one-way street.
Drive straight into the alley for about 200 meters, and you will find the hotel on your right-hand side. "A One Star Hotel"
(Source: A One Star)
Upon arrival, please park your car first. The parking lot here is somewhat limited, but it shouldn't be a problem.
Upon entering Pattaya Soi 3, one finds oneself within the "A One Kingdom."
This alley houses an impressive five A One hotels, all conveniently located within a stone's throw of each other. Just a five-step stroll separates you from your desired accommodation.
(Map courtesy of Pantip: Travel Around)
- A One The Royal Cruise Hotel is located on the left side of the alley.
- A One New Wing Pattaya is located on the left side behind the Royal Cruise and opposite A One Star.
- A One Pattaya Beach Resort is located on the right side in front of A One Star.
- Mytt Beach Hotel 5-star hotel, a new hotel that will be launched at the end of this year, is located on the right side next to A One Star.
- "A One Star Hotel" is the hotel for our trip.
(Click the link for more information.)
If the parking lot at A One Star is full, the security guard will direct you to park at another hotel within the same group.
Let's head inside. Check-in time is 2:00 PM and check-out time is before 12:00 PM.
Stepping through the entrance, you'll be greeted by friendly "sailors" dressed in nautical attire that perfectly complements the seaside ambiance.
The counter here will be compact and have a large sofa for waiting like this.
Waiting can be tedious. Feel free to order some bakery items to enjoy while you wait. There is a bakery and beverage stand nearby. ^V^
Smoking is prohibited inside the hotel and guest rooms. Therefore, the hotel has designated a smoking area here.
Wow, you're even more beautiful!
The koi and goldfish are beautiful to watch, making this a popular spot for all guests.
I don't smoke, but I still want to sit here.
The One Star is divided into two buildings according to the type of room: Star A and Star B. Both buildings are 8 stories high.
"Star A" offers exclusively "Star room" accommodations, with the option of Twin beds or a Double bed (King size).
This trip, we stayed in a Star room with twin beds. Let's go up and see the room.
The elevators here require the key card we received during check-in to operate, providing an additional layer of security. We appreciate this feature.
The elevated walkway is adorned with warm white lights, creating a soft, inviting ambiance. The white walls enhance the sense of spaciousness, preventing any feeling of claustrophobia.
We will be sleeping in room "5617" tonight, which is 17 square meters in size. The layout of the room is crucial.
Now I'm curious about how the interior is decorated. Follow me! ^V^
Upon entering the room, you will be greeted by a bed of this type. There is a 32-inch LED TV at the foot of the bed.
The opposite side is separated into a bathroom on the left-hand side. The toilet has a bidet spray and towels are hung above it.
The bathroom is located on the right-hand side. It features a frosted glass door and a shower with adjustable hot and cold water.
Due to the compact size of the bathroom, the hotel has designed the towel bar to be located outside the bathroom.
The central section features a separate sink, offering convenience during use.
Those who want to shower can do so, and those who want to brush their teeth can do so, so that no one has to wait for each other.
Hot and cold adjustable faucet
Amenities include shampoo, conditioner, shower gel, cotton buds, soap, and a hair cap.
The hairdryer will be next to the sink.
The refrigerator will be located below with two bottles of drinking water.
The room will not have a wardrobe, but there will be a clothes rack with hangers provided like this. This is another idea for efficient space allocation.
A safe for valuables is hidden in the wall.
Additionally, free Wi-Fi is available throughout the property, allowing guests to stay connected and share their experiences on social media.
The layout of the Star B room is similar to the Star Room, but the difference is that
The Superior Star Room features twin beds only and has the same layout as the Star Room. It offers 18 square meters of living space.
The Super Star Room features a double bed and 25 square meters of living space. It also includes a work desk and an adjustable LED bedside lamp, making it ideal for business travelers or young professionals.
Super Star Family 4 PAX features two double beds and a spacious living area of 28 square meters, making it ideal for families or groups of up to four people. The hotel's unique design separates the bathroom sink from the shower and toilet, allowing multiple guests to use the facilities simultaneously without waiting. This thoughtful layout ensures a convenient and comfortable stay for all.

No need to worry about finding adapters for your international friends.
After packing, it's time to relax. This trip, I want to chill and relax.
Instead, we opted to read books by the pool.
Equipment is ready, let's go!
The hotel's swimming pool is located on the 4th floor of the Star B building. It is a compact outdoor pool.
Please proceed to the counter to collect your towel.
The blue-shelled turtle will take note of our room number. After using it, please return it to its original location.
3:30 PM is the perfect time to enjoy the sunshine, making the swimming pool a popular destination.
Upon our arrival, we found the space occupied, prompting us to relocate to an alternative location.
As mentioned, we are now in the "A One Kingdom," which grants us access to the shared spaces of affiliated hotels.
Wow, this is amazing!
Let's take a quick peek at the hotel next door. The swimming pool at A One Pattaya Beach Resort is made of clear glass, which is a little sexy. You can put on a beautiful bikini and have your friend take a picture from outside for an amazing shot!
The primary purpose of the glass pool is not only for aesthetic appeal but also for safety. In the event of a guest drowning or experiencing an accident in the pool, staff can easily see and provide immediate assistance.
This building's outstanding feature is its structural design, which is accessible to wheelchair users. This includes the stairs, lifts, and guest rooms, earning it the "Kind Building" award from the Association of Siamese Architects in 2013.
This hotel is an excellent option for those seeking accommodations for patients or elderly relatives who require wheelchair accessibility.
Faced with an abundance of options, we remained indecisive and crossed the street to the opposite side.
To see the swimming pool at A One The Royal Cruise Hotel.
There are two swimming pools here. The children's pool is located inside.
As Seventeen-year-olds, we should choose the adult pool, right?.....huh ^V^
This place also has a swim-up bar, so you can order a drink and relax by the pool.
The surrounding atmosphere.
I love this angle the most... I'll book it first.
Having chosen a seat, she continued to read her book.
Those who want to play in the water can do so.
Unable to bear it any longer, I asked to join the game. ^V^
In addition to the swimming pool, we also have a free fitness room available. (Open 07.00 - 22.00 hrs.)
Healthy people, don't forget to bring your workout clothes.
The facilities and equipment are excellent, making this a highly recommended location.
The Music section also has Karaoke rooms. There are small rooms available for 300 baht per hour.
And the large room (please check the price with the hotel again).
The gang is welcome to come and compete here.
5:30 PM. After playing in the water until we were soaked, we went up to shower and explore the beach.
A three-minute walk from the hotel takes you to Pattaya Beach. So close! Come on, let's go!
.
The day we went to Pattaya Beach, the "Amazing Pattaya Seafood Festival 2017" was happening.
Freshly prepared seafood will be available for purchase and immediate consumption. Customers can browse the selection, make their purchases, and enjoy their meals on-site.
Please translate:
Seafood galore, with prices that won't break the bank.
You can choose whichever one you would like to eat.
Fruit punch, only 10 baht per glass. Delicious and very affordable.
Judging from the stylish attire, can you guess what this store sells?
Crispy egg ice cream... I bought it because the outfit is cool, I'm telling you. ^V^
Translation:
This restaurant's Pad Thai is said to be delicious, but what's even more delicious are the owner's two daughters. They are both incredibly cute. ^V^
This one is not for sale, so please don't ask for the price. ^V^
As the evening progresses, the atmosphere becomes increasingly pleasant. A cool breeze blows, inviting you to stroll along the beach, hand-in-hand with your partner, as you witness the breathtaking sunset. The experience is undeniably romantic.
For dinner, we had a beachside dinner.
Translation:
In addition to fresh seafood, the event also features live music.
This trip was all about eating and ended here. The music was great, and we had a blast dancing.
It's already midnight! Time flies when you're having fun, as they say. And it's true.
7:00 AM. I encountered a soul-sucking bed that made me never want to get up.
But the stomach started to protest... It's time to wake up...
The dining room is open from 7:00 AM to 10:00 AM. Please inform the sailor of your room number and then enter.
If you arrive late, the sun may be strong. It is recommended to sit in the air-conditioned zone for more comfort.
The breakfast buffet at this establishment features a wide selection of breads.
Spread with fruit jam, available in orange, strawberry, and pineapple flavors.
Enjoy with tea, coffee, or hot milk for a great way to beat drowsiness.
Translation:
A hearty selection of stir-fried rice, noodles, sausages, ham, toasted bread, hot bean soup, and steaming seafood porridge awaits.

A variety of egg menus, omelets, fried eggs, scrambled eggs, are also waiting for orders.
Translation:
This corner offers freshly fried, piping hot **patongo** ready to serve.
The healthy line offers a wide variety of vegetables and fruits to choose from.
The salad comes with three dressing options: creamy salad dressing, Thousand Island dressing, and Japanese sesame dressing. We liked the last one the most.
This section will feature cereal, fresh milk, and fruit juice.
Seasonal fruits are a must-have.
Ready to eat!
Is this place okay? If you're looking for a budget-friendly option with rooms starting from a few hundred baht (less than 500 baht per person if you're sharing with a friend), a beachfront location in Pattaya, convenient transportation, complete facilities, and breakfast included, then we think it's a great value. Perfect for young people like us, right?
However, due to the compact room size, there may be some external noise leakage. But this is not a problem for those of us who eat well and sleep easily, right? ^V^ (This is only for the Star Room type. Larger rooms may not have this problem.)
11:00 AM Check out from the hotel and find a place to walk around to digest food.
This trip, we took a break from the sea, so we decided to take some photos before returning here. "Pattaya Sheep Farm".
Why are you here? Because I heard that they opened a new zone here called "Storybook Town," so I wanted to come and see it.
Pay an entrance fee of 60 baht and enter. (Children under 110 cm tall enter for free.)
The first angle I saw was eye-catching.
There are many cute corners to take fun photos.
The playground corner is also available for children.
Translation:
They only paid 20 baht for this performance? They really went all out! ^V^
They are already in love, you can't be the third wheel, Yu. ^V^
Other activities include horse-drawn carriage rides around the farm and riding miniature horses.
Close-up animal encounters and feeding experiences.
Admission tickets can be exchanged for sheep feed, but access is limited to the sheep farm only.
The Fairy Tale Town is another part of the sheep farm. You need to purchase a separate ticket for "20 baht".
Do you remember the childhood fairy tales we loved? Let's reminisce together in "Storyland".
This section will recreate various fairy tales, allowing us to revisit our childhood memories together.
Please read the rules before entering.
Upon entering, we are greeted by the "Talking Tree," a sentient tree that welcomes us.
Behind the castle is the Frog Prince's castle. You can walk up to the castle and take beautiful pictures. ^V^
