The only times it gets pricy are around Full Moon Party and even then mostly only in Haad Rin and the nearby beaches. If you stay out in like Ao Thong Nai Pan or Haad Yao and you don’t want to stay literally beachfront (maybe 2-5 cabins back from the beach, 50-75 feet) you can stay even cheaper depending on where and what location. Lots of times poor bastards who drew the short straw on property will rent bungalows off the beach opposite the road super cheap and if you stay for a week or two you can really knock the price down. But hell, I stayed beachfront for about 400 baht a night in a fairly new queen size bed bungalow. That’s what? $10? If you want to stay cheaper in Haad Rin (get out of Haad Rin except during FMP if your there for that) you can stay in some of the shitty KSR style places on the main drag or up in the hillside bungalows.

What is the difference between adjustable beds and zero gravity adjustable beds? Most adjustable beds are able to create the zero gravity position by using the end and head of bed electric adjustments. However, the BetterRest zero gravity bed has a simple one touch button that puts you into the correct zero gravity position straight away. Also the BetterRest bed moves the bead head and end simultaneously; other adjustable beds move independently.
