I first came to Pattaya with the wife in the late 80s. Well, she took one look around and would not let me outside at night for a walk. She despised all the men taking advantage of those "poor girls" caught up in slavery. She still has same view to this day. But as we know, these "poor girls" are not innocent to this occupation and many do very well with some beguiled victims left destitute sleeping rough on the beaches etc. Six years ago after she divorced me I came to Pattaya with some satisfaction on my way back from another country. Should have sent her a post card. What will she now think when she finds out I intend to retire next year to Pattaya and Jomtein beach? Looking forward to this soapy....Thanks for sharing.
Best thing you did was to get rid of the annoying wife. Even I got rid of my wife in 2019. I had enough of the nonsense. Back to good old days. Have been a Pattaya man from 2005. Had a hiatus from 2012-2019 when I was married. God wanted me to get back to my roots, he came in my dream and said, you are not fit for marriage. Get back to your naughty life. lol
@@jefftam18 HI, for me I like the mix of expats and Thai. Great gyms and close to Bangkok.. A very helpful visa company run by English guy.. Kind of "entry point" for me . Known as good retirement area..I am not actually into the girls as such as have nice Russian friends who will come to stay..It also caters for Westerners with great condos etc. Plan is to go stay there for a while and see.
Hi, just amazing how you provide the best information for everyone, coming to Pattaya in few months and it would be my greatest honor to invite you for dinner. Thank you so much for your hard work.
@@cabowabo5557 Good hotel, nice breakfast. Cost me around $50 USD / day. It has a swimming pool, some night staff are greedy, may try to charge you when you bring a freelancer. Be firm, don’t let them rip you off. They asked me 1000 THB for a freelancer. I said no way, you getting that from me.
Re the story so true I have listened to so many like this and experienced it my self. After 34 years old living in and travelling to Thailand, nothing shocks me what they do to each other even family. Be warned guys out there, what chance do we stand as an outsider.
Really enjoying your channel....been to pattaya in 2018. Good times. Heading back in 3 months time. Love the little stories as well....adds great diversity to the great content of video. Thanks as always....buy ya a drink when I get there!
I haven't been there yet. But if I do go .I would much rather spend my money on a good soapy massage. than the alternatives . As I am severely hearing impaired and not much a drinker Bars and clubs are not my cup a tea. So your videos on this subject are quite informative Muchas Gracias !
Thanks for granting the request for a Soapie special. Great to see some are back up and running. Thailand Pattaya is getting more and more tempting to return. 🙂
I was at a soapie few years ago in patty. Can't remember which one (honey or p.p) and it was just amazing 👍 but you have to be bit smart like always in life. Don't choose a lady which ignores you or look away from you. I was sitting inside and took my time. One of the lovely girls smiled very nice back to me and the 2 hours with her was a great experience. Payed round about 3000 THB. So if you can give it a try for sure 😉
The lady was going with me in the room, she was beautiful. She explained calm but exactly what will happen now, she pointed to the shower "here we shower together", she pointed at the big air mattress "here I give you soapie", she took me at front of the bed "here we have sex" All of these in a intense and GF like way, no rush. I was suprised how lovely and kind she was to me. Maybe she liked me in some kind of way or she was just extreme good in her profession. Maybe it was sympathy we felt for each other, I dunno. But what I know is, it was a awesome experience. You get what you are willing to give...
Great story telling. Genuinely felt sorry for the girl. The mother isn't a good example. Her actions put her daughter back into the endless cycle in her line of work
In regards to pricing. There's something you should be aware of, bit of a trade secret, perhaps. There are no fixed prices. All these facilities have multiple versions of those laminated price sheets, with slightly different set of prices. So, when you enter and you talk to mamasan/papasan and ask for prices he/she will present a price list, which he/she thinks will match the time of the day, week day, season, but more importantly your looks, age, general appearance, ethnicity etc. In other words, if he/she thinks you're a wealthy businessman (or an ignorant fool...) you are more likely to be presented price sheet with inflated prices. I saw this myself, as I was presented wholly different price sheet by the same papasan than the next customer.
Have seen similar in a couple massage parlours where the price on the window on your way in has changed to 100 baht more on your way out and you start to think your cracking up .😀
What do the colors and letters represent on the price sheets? I know different levels of service but what are the specific options? Blue is what? Yellow? Red? Black?
I´ve never been, but I visited PP and Honey for a look last week. The best girls were definitely in Honey, but the prices are much better in PP (about 500Thb cheaper per colour) - if I remember rightly it was 2,200, 2,500 and 3,000 Thb. Another thing I was surprised about was that you get 90 minutes with the girl. Will definitely try next time.
Very heartbreaking story of the girl who build a house by hard work. She must have felt betrayed. On the other hand if she finds a fellow who cares for her she shtick on not betray. I am very weary about any Thai lady may just ditch you no matter what you have done for her.
I am routinly giving you a thumbs up - even before I've watched your video. Why? Because I simply know beforehand what to expect. Tjoobeeedooo ...🎉🎶🎵👌🤗🇸🇪🎈
I always mentioned the soapies as the highlight of my Pattaya vacation. They are good value compared to ST+barfine+room rent. No to mention the soapy massage itself is pretty good and fun compared to the average ST service.
Hi Daz maybe you should watch some of your own Newbie advice vids ! "My fathers buffalo is sick" has obviously been up graded to "My Mother has sold my house to pay for her gambling" Now I know you felt sorry for her ...right ? $$$$ :-) No wonder she is a high earner ! Sorry for being so skeptical but maybe You taught me too well ;-) Absolutely love this channel please keep up the great work . Cheers from down under ;-)
What a very enjoyable survey for you, well done, have been in Sabai rooms (boarded up), and across the road to Sabai Dee , fantastic experience. Thanks for all the info.
Nice content. As an International tour operator, we usually recommend our clients to use the in house spa facilities and therapists of the hotel of stay, as they are certified, experienced and due to the convenience factor of getting a service in the spa room of the hotel or request for a room service. Depending on the tour package budget we book Mind Resort, Mercure Pattaya and other few hotels... Kob Kun 👍💓🌹
I am very pleased to see this video. I have spent the last 24 years touring various AMPs here in the states. I say this because I equate AMP's here to Soapy's there. Sounds like a great value at half the price I pay here. Thanks as always my friend. Cheers.
Never had a soapy before walked past Honey 1 many times and was always curious but too shy to go in after seeing your video I'm gonna see what I've been missing out on.. cheers 👍
Crikey, the story about the young lady building her own house and hard work over 5 years to pay for it, then her mother sells it to pay her gambling debts is really sickening and heartbreaking! I have realized that not all is as it seems with the bar girls and gambling is a big thing here in Thailand and a major scourge for everyone! Life is a gamble, literally and that is really tough when it's not your own fault! I have to feel compassion for her biggest disappointment of losing her dream home! How can her mother do such a thing? Even I don't know her, I feel very sorry for her!
Thanks for the update on the soapies. I've stayed in Hotel Acqua near Honey1 Body Massage and the Adelphi Hotel near PP Body Massage. I can thoroughly recommend both hotels, very clean and moderately priced. It's good to know that Pattaya is returning to some normality now after the Covid, keep up the good work Daz :)
Daz mate. Back in 2006, The Honey Massage was The Honey Inn hotel! It was 450 Bhat a night and the exchange rate was 70 Bhat to the £, less than £4.50p. I stayed there many times before they closed, oh Happy Days! And the beer was only 40 or 50 Baht in most bars! 😥
@Lancashirelad Do you remember The Holiday bar at the not far from The Inn Town? You could get a bottle of Chang for 29 Bhat! That little Soi had so many young good looking girls back then! 😍😍
Prices started under 2000B about 5 years ago so prices have not come down.....Quality wise,I wasn't that impressed by any of their line ups in fairness so I just walked out.... Don't feel pressured to take a girl after you have gone through the doors
Agree ,i believe the prices list is for different clients e.g farang are 2nd price and the more expensive (supposed model ) are aimed at korean (other asian ) .i think this because when i asked not many spoke english so concluded this
Nice job Daz. I think sometimes, by the time you factor buying a few LDs at a bar, rounds for yourself, BF, and room...then a soapie probably works out a shade cheaper.
Have to apologize to you matey expecting you to visit soapys, Gogo's,bars must be hell for you but no you must keep at it so we can see everything going on while not there yet . keep at it it's really appreciated .
Just one thing: you may want to use the term ‘services’ instead of ‘merchandise’. As a fan of your channel, I’m just being honest-it’s kind of creepy, referring to actual people as ‘merchandise’. You aren’t buying them…your paying them for a service. Just something for you to you consider. It’s not a criticism, per say.
Another blinder Daz. Thanks for taking one for the team and sorting that out. Totally agree with your summary. A soapy used to be comparatively expensive when compared to other forms of “entertainment” but looking at the BF/ST hikes it looks great value and tbh great fun.
@@rickrolled2765 A body to body massage using large amounts of soap for minimum friction carried out on an inflatable mattress, usually followed by a shower and intimacy on the bed. A must if you have never tried it.
I've heard stories of girls sending money back home to Dad who then goes out and spends it all on the local escorts that he see's...and the girl can't understand where all of her hard earned money goes.
Sad that Sabai Dee is closed...had my first soapy there in 2003!! Tried explaining a soapie to my friends in the states...was like talking to a wall. They had/have no idea what they are missing!!
Quality in the soapies is in the eye of the beholder, they may look great sitting on the benches but beware!! many have severe baby damage under their clothes
Normally a lond dress ,and as john said when close up it can be a different story .one thing that seems quite consistent is boob size (all have larger ) to help with their work
Well, she could have just sent her mom a small monthly stipend, and saved the rest of her money in a bank for 5 years..the thing about people and their stupid houses, always a disaster.
Honestly they aint that great ,defo not model standard .they are aimed at a certain market who is thought will spend more money on a girl with white face etc
You have made an excellent video yet again, however its a pity that the soapie prices are more expensive now then what one can have just for the BKK airfare over a long weekend of multiple ST in a German FKK club. For Europeans just for the cost of the airfare to BKK one can get much the same kind of rumpty bumpty in a german fkk club without suffering a 12 hour long haul flight. As for Americans well they have Colombia on their doorstep where the cost of rumpty bumpty ST can be had for around USD25..... As more and more punters realise Pattya is no longer the rumpty bumpty capital Pattaya is going to slowly die, Unless the Australian and Kiwi punters flood into Pattaya and keep pattaya on life support.... But even they are heading to the Philippines and Cambodia for cheaper rumpty bumpty.... Is going to Pattya really worth it now?? Its not the same as it once was
You're right the bar girls aren't worth Pattaya but it is a cheap place to live where a guy can still have a nice looking non bar girlfriend. There's nice weather, resorts, western food, shopping malls, modern movie theaters, etc.
@@erichaynes7502 Given a choice of a cheap place to live where I could find a nice non bar girlfriend, I would choose Colombia.... It has everything you mentioned except the oppressive humid weather of Thailand. The temp is the same year round like spring 25 centigrade
@@JohnMitchI used to live in Panama it was definitely hot/humid there other than Medellin I think Colombia is the same. I do like a lot of the girls down there but a lot of danger. I'm not so much looking for a GF as a cheap place to live so I can afford to do other things. The western world is convenient but just keeps on getting more and more expensive..at least in Thailand I can live in a small, decent, clean place with low monthly bills..right now I'm paying 3k a month and really getting nothing in return.
@@everythingPattaya Chinese only spend in Chinese run businesses, Japanese are financially skint and do not spend anything like they used to, Indians will sit 4 to a table and share one drink and only eventually pull from the coconut bar again 1 girl shared.... I do not know about the Koreans. Good luck Pattaya
Very interesting research, thanks for the selfless work, Captain! It seems very risky getting involved with a village girl. Very roughly speaking - how many of the girls in the Pattaya area are "city/town" born? Meaning her parents will not be Village People, with cap-in-hand and sick Buffalos etc? Is it difficult to meet non-scheming city/town girls there if/when you're ready for a steady gf?
All inclusive supposed to be but in my experience, admittedly 10 years ago now, they do like a reasonably substantial tip, ie 500 bht plus. Yes some do have a tough life, not quite as tough as working in a rice field or factory though. Life made even tougher by their blood sucking families.
Re the little story, I kinda get what you mean. But a few years on your back and then owning your own house outright ...is it so tough? I and many friends work hard for a 25 year mortgage which you can lose at the drop of a hat through unemployment, negative equity etc.
@@jefftam18 slightly older in some cases total "up to you" as low as lady drink plus room and s/t cost if you are going in with an agenda of getting it done and getting down the road
@@jefftam18 usually 300 for the room 1000-2000 for the s/t and 120 for the lady drink in a gentleman's club. A soapy is 1500 to 2500 no lady drink room included. soapies are to me the best deal because you are going to great service if you are only there for the ole in and out in and out and in and out. 555
I'm a big fan of soapys when i go. The whole experience is nice and relaxed, more than trying to half a half understood half English conversation over the top of bar music at one of the bars. It was 2000 for the basic girls when I was last there in 2019, and 2500 for the next level up, it's gone up a bit but not so bad compared to other things. Does it look like Sabai Dee or Sabai Room will ever re-open? There was another one, I think it was called Rasputin that I never went to, is that still there?
Interesting content as usual Daz. is there any video where we might see what you look like? It would be nice to introduce yourself and get yourself in front of the camera just once. It's something that comes with the territory as they say.
@@CheekyMonkey007 Yeah, I was thinking about talking into the camera without a mask, but that's okay, I understand. After awhile, we think of you guys like friends like Rob (20 Seconds in Thailand), Trev (Buzzin Pattaya), Jeroen (Global Travel Mate) and Peter (Thailand=Bound).. Nevertheless, keep up the great work!
I have deep sympathies for all the ladies in the trade, and take great pleasure in treating them as if I love them. Any man who gets burned by one of them has only himself to blame.
@@bruceweber2361 Only a few baht here and there. I've never lost an entire house like your naive friend. Maybe you can teach her how to avoid being humiliated in the future.
Thanks Daz for another great video. I am still waiting to hear from you. What are those abbreviations ? What R, B, M, V, S in Honey 1 stands for ? Thanks for your response
@@everythingPattaya Thanks Daz. But prices are different. R seems like regular so it is cheapest price. M seems like for model and price is higher. S seems like super model and price is highest. Of course, I am just guessing, not sure.
@@cabowabo5557 soi six, honey, coconut bar, Thai friendly, my luck on soi pothole has been poor so far. Soi boomerang has been good. The massage parlors on soi buakow with a nuru flair have been good they wear more casual attire. Also you can ask mp ladies if they barfine.
pre covid honey 1 had a terrible line up, so if you can confirm the lineup now is better than their pre-covid days then that would be great news And that is terrible about what happened to that girl who lost her house, hope she will be able to recover
I think maybe that was your friends new sob story to use on farangs. Sick buffalo doesnt work anymore. Unless the lady was silly enough to put the house in her mothers name.
The house was built on the mother's small farm, where the mother obviously owns all the land AND any buildings on it, so it was all in the mother's name, who was understandably trusted by the girl. No any more !!!
That's why to avoid the fees of bars etc you're better off with TF and social media to meet girls. The drinks plus bar fine add too much to the cost, plus they want 1500 ST, whereas you can negotiate lower than this outside of bars. Girls asking for 1500 ST price is outrageous compared to what normal thais earn (about 300-400 PER DAY). If she can fit 2-3 in a day she can earn 10-15 times the price of what most thai people are earning working 8 hours lol.
@@CheekyMonkey007 Thanks buddy. I'm pretty sure when I went to that soapy a few years back there was only 3-4 different classes of Ladies? Blue, red and Gold or white can't completely remember? Just wasn't sure about the "S and V" class. But now I know.
@@gavreynolds2689 the V and S class came because rich Chinese customers wanted "extra expensive and exclusive". So the agents would just make up an extra expensive tier, and eventually they would keep it. Soapy girls have told me this xD
