stayed at your villa and was not the best stay we ever had here the villa was dirty when we arrived and had to ask to get the front cleaned up food bags and mess every were.
had to wait for two hours before we can have the car as it was gone for a clean on top of that the safe was locked and had to wait a hour or more for the safe to be opened after a few calls then had to call your office to get someone to come out.
water ran out two times and had to wait for someone to come out to help.
the a/c in 2 bedrooms were leaking water on to the beds.
the remote for the t.v&dvd were broken and needed shakeing to work the pool table had no cue tips on them that worked and pool table was ripped in a few places the place needed painting it is not classed as luxury villas at all we were very unhappy and i got alot of stick from my friends over this as i booked it and to top things up we woke up in the morning to find bread/milk/water/tea bags and other food missing the day we were leaveing so over all not happy at all with the stay at your villa.
as we come every year this villa has been very upsetting to us the way we were treated and then before we were going asked for tips again and again.

Wan Lai Pattaya Songkran Festival 2009

Date: 18th - 19th April 2008

Venue: Sanam Suea Pa, Dusit District, Bangkok


Songkran Festival is the traditional Thai New Year, it is the time when Thais go the Temples offering food to the Buddhist monks, freeing birds or turtles back into the wild (It is believed if you free a turtle it will give you a longer life), houses are spring-cleaned, scented water is sprinkled on their elders as a sign of respect!

Wet girls at hot season - Songkran Festival Songkran is internationally famous and well known from the water dousing that goes on throughout Thailand. Children and adults alike stand along the roadside to douse passers by with water and talcum powder. The backs of the trucks are filled with large barrels of water which is promptly dispatched over everyone they pass by as they drive slowly along the streets. Those that venture out will not escape a very thorough soaking, but its great fun and very refreshing as it's the peak of the hot season.

Songkran days are also without a doubt family days and where possible the families leave the big cities to spend time with their families and pay respect in recognition of everything they did for them. The traditional greeting is 'Sawadee Pi Mai', which means "Happy New Year".

 

 

 Wan Lai Festival 

Songkran Festival - a lot of water As the heat in Thailand intensifies once the month of April comes, Thai ancestors were wise enough to initiate the Songkran Festival as a way to cool off from the heat, celebrating Thai New Year at the same time. In the central region Songkran is usually held on the 13th, 14th and 15th of April whilst in the east the activities commence on the 18th and 19th April as "Wan Lai" (Flowing Day) Jomtien and Pattaya hold their festival on the 19th with activities such as water pouring for the elders, processions and the fun of soaking each other with water, foreigners do not escape they are a prime target.
