A Serene Retreat by the Sea: Our Trip to Pattaya
After finishing our health check-up in bustling Bangkok, we found ourselves with two extra days to explore. Desiring a change of scenery, we set our sights on the tranquil shores of Pattaya. The idea of relaxing near the sea was too appealing to resist, so we hastily made plans for a last-minute getaway.
Our journey began on a Friday morning, and given the spontaneous nature of our trip, accommodations were scarce. Our initial choice, the D Varee Jomtien Beach, Pattaya, had no regular rooms available due to the high demand. However, undeterred by this setback, we opted for the Grand Executive Suite Ocean View room, an option that was a bit more expensive but promised an experience worth every extra penny.
Arriving at the hotel, we were eager to see if our investment had paid off. The moment we stepped onto the balcony of our suite on the 27th floor, any lingering doubts were dispelled. The panoramic view of the ocean was nothing short of breathtaking. The vast expanse of the shimmering sea stretched out before us, merging seamlessly with the sky at the horizon. It was a sight that instantly invoked a sense of peace and wonder.
The allure of our suite was so strong that we decided to spend the rest of the day within its confines. The balcony, with its stunning view, became our favorite spot. We sipped on freshly brewed coffee, the aroma mingling with the salty sea breeze, and let the beauty of the surroundings envelop us.
Next day evening, we visited the Sanctuary of Truth, an awe-inspiring wooden structure that stands as a testament to human craftsmanship. The intricate carvings and the serene ambiance of the sanctuary left a lasting impression on us. We also took a leisurely stroll along Pattaya Beach, where the golden sands and clear waters provided the perfect backdrop for relaxation.
No trip to Pattaya would be complete without indulging in its culinary offerings. We dined at several local eateries, savoring the flavors of Thai cuisine. From spicy tom yum soup to delectable seafood dishes, each meal was a delightful adventure for our taste buds. The street food scene in Pattaya is also not to be missed, with vendors offering a variety of snacks and treats that are both delicious and affordable.#seascapes #couplestrip #beachlife
