What this budget gets you
A sea view one bedroom in a newer tower, or a two bedroom if you go slightly inland. At this level you are choosing on taste rather than on price, and a private balcony you can actually sit on becomes standard.
We cover Jomtien, Pratumnak Hill, Central Pattaya, Wongamat and Naklua, Na Jomtien and Bang Saray, East Pattaya and Huay Yai. At this budget the areas worth looking at first are Jomtien and East Pattaya, where the same money buys noticeably more room.
Prices are market guides for planning. Send us your dates and we will come back with what is genuinely available at this budget.

Types that fit this budget
Studio condos
One room, a kitchenette, a bathroom, and a pool downstairs in nearly every building. Most long stayers in Pattaya start in one of these.
from ฿8,000 (about $240) / month
One bedroom condos
This is the most rented size in Pattaya. That one wall between the bed and the sofa is the difference between a long stay feeling like home and feeling like a hotel room.
from ฿10,000 (about $300) / month
Two bedroom condos
Sizes run from a tight 38 sqm to 180 sqm on the beachfront, so the words cover two very different things. Give us a number and we will tell you which end you are shopping at.
from ฿20,000 (about $600) / month
Three bedroom condos
Family sized. Expect a maid's room, a utility area, and a balcony with space for a table and chairs rather than a drying rack.
from ฿25,000 (about $750) / month
Houses and townhouses
More room per baht than anything on the coast. The trade is simple. You will be inland, and you will need something to drive.
from ฿17,000 (about $510) / month
