Thanks for the good report Dodger! I have actually been looking at various condo projects in Bang Saray for several years now, but just can't ever seem to pull the trigger - might have something to do with the fact that I've never actually been to the bloody place. When I first started looking, as you mention, it seemed to be a bit lacking in 'amenities' for me - not many restaurants/shops/bars, etc., but now it appears that those are coming in droves. I may have to take a serious look at it. Would you say Bang Saray is closer to the airport or to the center of Pattaya itself?
