What do you think? Was this a good deal? 🤔

Hi Ryan! The apartment for the price paid and its size was a really good deal! Now prices are back to pre-pandemic and even higher. No more good deals 😅 Loved the video 😊

Yeah I noticed the prices have gone back - Koh Samui in particular can be pretty expensive too

phenomenal price! That flat could house a multigenerational family with 3 bed and 2 bath and a well kitted kitchen. If I'm on Koh Samui as a visitor, I intend to spend most of my time out and about so my accomodations need not be fussy at all. Thanks for another great video - I feel as if I decided to do the nomad gig I could watch a series of your videos and know just how to do it, and do it quite well. Thanks!

Yeah I totally agree - this is better for a long term stay, no need for so much space if you are sightseeing all day. There were lots of families staying in the complex when we were there - seems like a great place for that

Maybe if the Russians would leave Koh Samui, the prices would be normal.

Can’t believe you didn’t highlight the English pub, The Shakespeare Pub, I’ve had the best Sunday Roast with Irish Stout, certainly in Koh Samui 😊

I saw a review of a nice apartment complex in Bangkok with an impressive 500Mbps connection speed. Chiang Mai also seems to be a popular and cheap destination. The place you stayed looks great and was fantastic value considering you had a 3 bedroom apartment.

Hi watching from Philippines ♥️🇵🇭

I know you think you got a deal at your condo, but its not a deal. It's a foreigner price, bad owners overcharged you. Other Thai ppl staying at better condos paying under $500 US.

It's not a condo, it's a 3 bedroom house in a luxury development on Koh Samui (an expensive island)

I understand this, and you booked through airbnb. I still think you could of received a better deal. I saw some houses for rent at the time you are there, some nice homes could be rented out for around $450-$600. I think the people who listed on airbnb do not know what the market valve for their properties and they know foreigners will overpay. I know Koh Samui is 30-40% more expensive than other islands, but not at the time you rented the place at the end of the pandemic.

@@ethanlee7125 It's true that Airbnb is often more expensive, but it's also more flexible for short term stays (hence why you sometimes pay more). Most of the best deals that you are talking about are for 6 to 12 month contracts - which we did not want at the time. I challenge you to find a 3 bedroom house with swimming pool and gym in the same area for the prices you mention - impossible for a 2 month stay

Seriously You Paid Tourist Price...Even at current prices on Koh Samui.... You could have easily rented a detached house in the same area for 10,000 bht a month and Saved 60%...Not forgetting the 60% discount you had already received...The mind Boggles.
