Traditional Thai culture at Patong Beach is largely absent, with the arguably unattractive commercial development of the area leaving little space for the authentic local way of life. Still, this suits visitors for whom the diversity of raw eastern living is not conducive to the comfort and convenience they would expect of a typical sun and sand holiday. Patong Beach's main drag epitomises the resort's relentless pursuit of capitalism, presenting each and every tourist with an endless tirade of solicitation from locals offering goods and services. Patience is a virtue that visitors will benefit from; however, when you're feeling a tad hung-over or just a safe passage between locations and have no...

The Coyaba Beach Resort is not only one of the best resorts in Montego Bay, but also in the whole of Jamaica. In fact in my opinion one of the best small luxury resorts in the Caribbean. We were looking for a cheap Montego Bay package, and a vacation for a family of three to Montego Bay, and The Coyaba Beach Resort more than filled the bill. Our daughter is only eight and so we needed a decent size room which we certainly got at Coyaba. The room was very spacious with two large beds, overlooking the beach. We were on the third floor, with good views, but heard that the first floor had a lot of traffic noise from the road. It rained on one of the days we were there, and the TV wasn't great, but we...

Nottingham – Castle and Pubs Nottingham is getting some bad press recently with inner city problems of gun crime and burglary. Whilst there is no doubt these problems exist, Nottingham remains for me a great city full of interesting places to see both old and new. Nottingham is located in the centre of England and is often referred to as The Queen of The Midlands. The City has always been strategically important. Nottinghamshire countryside provided good hunting grounds for Kings and the forest provided good shelter for outlaws most notably the famous Robin Hood. Although much of the forest has disappeared now, Nottinghamshire still boasts some of the finest woodlands in England with ancient...

Modern times can be termed as a transition phase in many ways. New inventions and discoveries and above all the invention of Internet have brought about a huge change in the way people think. In fact, it has also altered the tastes of people. What was considered good some time back would not do today, simply because people are exposed to several types of things happening around the world that have an undeniable effect on them. This is one reason that can be attributed to the changing tastes of people. Talking about change in taste, one change that is witnessed pretty vividly is people's tilt towards self catering. It is not difficult to understand the reason behind this. People around the world...

When you're vacation, you have some pretty important things to think about. Order the garlic shrimp, or the fettuccine alfredo? Snorkel first, or scuba dive? Get up early to watch the sun rise over the beach, or don't bother going to bed at all? Of all the things you have to worry about on vacation, the one thing you shouldn't think about is your budget. Most of us never get to live the life of the rich and famous, taking lavish vacations and spending unlimited sums on the best of everything. Instead, we live the life of the rich and famous at all-inclusive beach resorts. To be sure, budgets are a fact of life. But should having a spending limit necessarily mean suppressing all of your desires, just...

What makes many people miss their home when they are away from it is the food they enjoy in their homes. One can get lots of tasty goodies outside; but the flavour and freshness of home-made food cannot be found anywhere. Probably because of this, many people look for an arrangement where they can take delight of food made by their own hand, even when they are on move. The system of self catering perhaps came into existence from this urge. One cannot take his home with him but he can get a homely atmosphere where he can make his food with his own hand. Self catering apartments make this possible. There are lots of cottages and apartments scattered all across the UK that offer self catering. While on...

That a country with only 17 miles in length and 9 miles across can be fascinating enough to pull in travellers all around the world may remain unintelligible to people who either have not visited Malta or not heard of its huge tourism industry.

You would expect that Jamaica real estate prices would be quite high, considering the posh hotels and resorts, the elegant restaurants, and quite frankly, just the brand name 'Jamaica', but actually it is not so! Leading realtor, Andrew Issa, was quoted as saying that currently purchasers get more 'bang for the buck' on real estates as opposed to other Caribbean islands. Meaning that you get a lot more real estate for the money in Jamaica. There should be no surprise therefore, of the increasing number of foreigners who are showing heated interest in Jamaican properties. I recall a recent article in one of our notable newspapers, the Jamaica Observer reporting that over 55% of all real estate...

Oh my gosh! It was so beautiful you cross so much blue, green waters and Cuba too. It took four hours in the plane, the time was behind eastern standard time. So it seem like 3 hours. When we arrived at the airport, certain parts of their airport was not air conditioned. It was my first time out of the country and we could tell we were in another country. They showed everyone which way to go through customs. My husband and I were shocked that there was no air conditioning. However, the workers were very pleasant to us. This was in 1995, they had a group of woman dressed colorfully singing like the commercial "Come to Jamaica". That did it for me. I was so excited. We were ushered by the Hotel...

Let me tell you that if every tourist that goes to Puerto Rico and stay in San Juan or in the north side of the Island knows that theres more than that in the other places in Puerto Rico they will regret just staying in only one part of the Island. My experience because I lived 20 years in Puerto Rico is that even me didn't know about a lot of places that you can go that you can have a good time and see stuff that is most have to see. Just to name a few El Yunque, Cuevas de Camuy, Arecibo Radar and much more. These places are areas that you need to see when you go to Puerto Rico since it talks by itself about the culture, and history about Puerto Rico. Also there some small hotels and resorts in the...
