My heart is at ease, near the sea, because you are here. U@Pattaya.

To unwind and relax, we decided to plan a trip. We started by considering our desired hotel, prioritizing finding the best discounts. Many people recommended U Pattaya for a nearby seaside getaway, so we decided to try it based on reviews and recommendations. However, finding discounts proved to be quite a challenge.

Pattaya: A Relaxing Getaway

Pattaya's proximity to Bangkok makes it an ideal destination for a spontaneous escape. This time, we opted for a laid-back approach, focusing on relaxation, fresh seafood like crab claws, and finding a charming café to unwind in. Our chosen accommodation, a highly-rated 5-star haven, promised tranquility and a unique check-in system: 24-hour access with no fixed check-out time. Upon arrival, we were greeted with a selection of soaps and pillows, and a welcome drink invitation to choose anything from the well-stocked refrigerator. The atmosphere is described as idyllic, with stunning ocean views and direct beach access. We can't wait to experience it firsthand!

Before setting off, we grabbed some caffeine to fuel up. We then headed towards the motorway as usual. Around noon, we stopped for lunch at a restaurant called "Jiang Fish Balls." It was a simple place with few customers, which seemed promising. We ordered the signature fish ball noodle soup and chrysanthemum tea. The taste was average and not quite worth the price. If you're curious, feel free to give it a try.

We are heading to Pattaya, a nearby beach, but our accommodation this time is a bit far away. Bang Sare is said to be quiet, but there are many new accommodations popping up. This time, we also want to escape the hustle and bustle of Pattaya. Let's see how it goes.

We have arrived at U Pattaya. The resort entrance is barely visible. Upon entering, it doesn't seem very impressive. The image of a 5-star hotel gradually fades away. Let's take a closer look at each section later.

The lobby is small and can get crowded during check-in. There are no welcome drinks offered at the check-in counter. Guests can choose from a selection of small soap bars. Pillows are provided in the room, and additional pillows can be requested. If the room is not yet ready, guests will need to wait. The beach is a good place to wait while exploring the property.

After waiting for what felt like an eternity, I decided to call and inquire about the status of my room reservation. To my relief, the staff informed me that a room had just become available. It had been nearly an hour since my initial inquiry. As a token of apology for the delay, I was offered a Happy Hour coupon, entitling me to a buy-one-get-one-free beverage within the next hour. This unexpected perk served as a small consolation for the inconvenience caused.

The staff escorted us to our room and explained the Welcome drinks in the refrigerator. They informed us that we could each choose one item, specifying what was and was not available for consumption.

However, another unexpected disappointment was the Sea View. The view of the sea was obstructed by trees, ruining the ambiance. Although there was a jacuzzi, its location made it impossible to use it without being seen by passersby. Perhaps it would be better to visit at night. Let's move on to other areas and see what they have to offer.

The bathroom door is made of clear glass, while the door inside the bathroom is made of frosted glass. Both doors are difficult to slide and very heavy. Pulling the curtain in front of the sink reveals a clear view of the headboard. However, the arrangement of the bed, the seating area, and the different levels of the room are well-designed. The discounted price was a plus, otherwise it wouldn't have been worth it. The view alone was enough to ruin the experience. After a while, the Wi-Fi internet became unstable, sometimes connecting and sometimes not. The mobile network signals for each carrier were also not very good. Fortunately, there was no need to contact anyone during this time...555

Let's rest for a bit and wait for the sun to set before we go out to eat again.

As it was a day when most people were expected to return home, the restaurants in Bangsaen were very empty, almost deserted. We didn't dare to enter the restaurants that we had seen in reviews, so we looked for restaurants that had some people and cars parked, assuming they would be good.

This is the place, Reuan Tale Restaurant in Bangsaen. It's a restaurant on the sea, yes, because it's a restaurant that extends into the sea, but it's not shaky, so the atmosphere is good, the food is delicious, and the price is not expensive. You have to try it. And the first menu we're going to order is the one he brought us here for, the crab claws. The rest, let's go!

After finishing our meal, we decided to grab some snacks and check out the restaurant's atmosphere at night. We considered going to La Vela Rooftop Bar, which is popular for its sunset views and evening ambiance. However, the weather wasn't cooperating, and it started drizzling. To our surprise, the bar was deserted and dimly lit, with no umbrellas available for outdoor seating. Disappointed, we opted to return to our room and relax instead.

The jacuzzi wouldn't turn on, so I couldn't take a bath. It was raining lightly, so I couldn't even enjoy the outdoors.

Good morning, world, with a distant view of the sea.

Upon waking, we headed to breakfast, which was highly praised in online reviews. The staff informed us that smoked salmon was available. We enjoyed our meal by the pool, where some seats were swings overlooking the sea. It was a delightful experience. We encourage you to try it out.

The U Signature breakfast, Ur Egg Benedict, is a bit peculiar. Even though I enjoy cheese, butter, bread, and bacon, the combination in this dish is... well, the taste is subjective. If you're staying at the hotel, give it a try. You might miss out otherwise. 😉

After finishing our meal, we returned to capture the breathtaking scenery surrounding the resort. The atmosphere was truly delightful, with the swimming pool contrasting beautifully against the backdrop of the sea. The resort also boasts a fitness center, which we encourage you to explore.

No need to rush your checkout here, as you can stay and relax your eyes a little longer. The best part is that you can check out whenever you want, but it's important to inform the staff beforehand. Otherwise, if someone else has booked your room, you'll need to leave by 2 pm.

The Disparity Between Expectation and Reality: A Review of a Resort

This review grapples with the dissonance between the highly anticipated experience promised by a resort and the actual reality encountered upon arrival. While the initial hype and positive reviews generated excitement, the reviewer ultimately concludes that the resort falls short of its advertised value.

The crux of the issue lies in the resort's failure to maintain the quality standards it initially presented. The reviewer notes that the initial impression was positive, with unique selling points and enthusiastic reviews creating a sense of anticipation. However, upon arrival, the experience did not live up to expectations. The reviewer emphasizes the importance of resorts maintaining their quality over time, as initial excitement can quickly fade when reality fails to match the hype.

Despite the disappointment, the reviewer acknowledges the resort's potential for those seeking a specific type of experience. The tranquil environment and luxurious amenities cater to individuals seeking a quiet and relaxing getaway. Additionally, the availability of various room options, including private pool villas, offers a range of choices for different preferences.

Ultimately, the review serves as a cautionary tale for potential guests, highlighting the importance of realistic expectations and thorough research before committing to a stay. While the resort may offer a luxurious and peaceful escape for some, the discrepancy between initial impressions and actual experience warrants careful consideration.

After leaving our accommodation, we headed to Pattaya to relax at a coffee shop and grab a bite to eat. Since it was late afternoon, we decided to follow another review and went to a place called The Sky Gallery. It's located near Khao Phra Tamnak, close to the Cozy Beach Hotel. Initially, we felt like we had come at the wrong time. It was a bit hot in the afternoon, and it would have been better to come in the evening to enjoy the sea view and have dinner. However, we were hungry, so we sat down and enjoyed the view of the sea and the sun. After a while, we went to the bathroom and discovered another seating area that was shaded and had an indoor section with comfortable seating on the lawn. The food was delicious and reasonably priced.

The Sky Gallery Coffee: A Unique and Colorful Experience

The Sky Gallery Coffee offers a unique and colorful coffee experience with its signature "The Sky Gallery Coffee." This coffee features a vibrant blue hue reminiscent of Blue Hawaii, blended with a rich coffee base. The layered colors create a visually stunning presentation, making it a must-try for anyone visiting Pattaya.

Beyond its aesthetic appeal, The Sky Gallery Coffee boasts a distinct flavor profile. The unexpected combination of Blue Hawaii and coffee creates a surprisingly pleasant and refreshing taste. This unique offering sets The Sky Gallery Coffee apart from other cafes in the area.

The cafe's ambiance further enhances the dining experience. The romantic atmosphere, especially during the evening hours, makes it an ideal spot for a special occasion or a relaxing evening out. The affordable prices and stunning views add to the overall value proposition, making The Sky Gallery Coffee a true gem in Pattaya.

While the cafe provides a welcome escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life, it also serves as a reminder of the responsibilities that await upon returning to reality. The mention of work and the drained energy serve as a humorous reminder of the inevitable return to everyday life.

Thank you for the relaxing trip. The nearby sea calmed our hearts and eased our doubts, because we were close to each other. This may be a common rhyme, but for us, it was a trip with many good aspects. Even if things didn't go exactly as planned, we were able to overcome them because the person beside me tried their best to fulfill almost all my requests before the trip. Whether it was staying at U Pattaya, enjoying crab curry, relaxing at a cozy cafe, or simply taking a break, we found happiness in our own way. Although something may have dampened the mood on the way back, it still made the trip meaningful because the memories we created together were a result of our intentional effort to spend quality time together. Thank you to whatever made this trip possible, thank you to my source of encouragement who put their heart into making everything perfect, and thank you for creating beautiful memories together. Stay tuned for our next trip! We'll share where we go and what stories we have to tell. Traveling in a slow-life style is our happiness. Try planning a trip like this yourself. Make time for yourself and your loved ones, and you'll realize that every minute is precious and meaningful when spent with those you care about. Time is truly important and valuable for those who appreciate its worth.
