    We were there in Nov last year, just before the high season kicked in, and I can't say I've ever seen a higher concentration of katoeys anywhere. Possible exceptions could be a katoey 'beauty' pagents... but having never been to one I couldn't be certain.

    As to your second point, it's pretty much all true. ;) Makes me curious which one(s) you keep going back for. :D:p

    The garbage, especially on the east side of the island, was awful. And the place is under perpetual construction. It must have been a great outpost 5 years ago.

    Yeah, Lipe jumped the shark about 3-4 years ago when the speedboats made it so much easier for the Phuket/Krabi farangs to consider it a destination. We've been going there every year for a month since '05. Lots of friends and its still a beautiful place if you know where to go. We try to avoid Pattaya beach during the day and just head there for the nights if we are in the mood for partying. Biggest thing that keeps us going back is all our friends we've made, the snorkelling and the seafood that was swimming an hour before we eat it. :)

    That being said I try to highlight the negatives on the boards to hopefully push back the point where we say it's too much and go find the next Lipe.:D

    Conrad Bangkok bathroom. Note: there's a glass wall between the bathroom and the rest of the room; this is taken from the far side. There are draperies for the shy.

    You are too funny ... :D thanks for sharing!

    We stayed there back in 2009 but I wasn't too impressed ... maybe because we did not have status then, but we had to take a second mortgage to pay for the room rate!!! :eek:

    Please share your experience/review here: Conrad Bangkok

    I stayed only one night and it was on points. It was one of the less expensive rooms (even without the points angles) on my trip. Guess I was just lucky booking early. I'll post to that other thread when I get to that point in my trip reports. I really enjoyed Thailand even though I was there for such a short time.
