DISCOVER PATTAYA
This Month in Discover Pattaya Hi Everyone, Whilst still keeping an eye on the scourge that is this pandemic and its effects on Pattaya there is definite evidence of areas such as Dongtan Beach and Pratumnak Beach bouncing back. This may of course be a result of the number of Bangkokians who seem to have escaped to take refuge here. A beneficiary of this is certainly the Sands Group. Their beachside cafe is proving very popular both day and night and from their wonderful white condominium just a short stroll along the beach road they are selling a stunning new penthouse available to move into right now with truly breathtaking sea views. There is also a sense of heightened curiosity about the much anticipated launch of the Sands Sauna Beach Club. We were invited to have a look inside and can report back that it is really something special. Make sure to join the list for VIP membership as soon as you can - it makes a pleasant change from joining registration lists for vaccinations! I’d like to finish by wishing a Happy 4th of July to all our American readers and a good month for us all. Stay safe everyone. Gloria x
