Anyone recommend any good sites for long term rentals like this?. I've found a few which are solid but i think there may be cheaper to had
cheers

Down here in the islands, it is almost ALWAYS going to be better to come and stay in a guesthouse/hotel for a few weeks and do some on the ground hunting (preferably with a Thai speaking/Thai person). The best deals are from Thai owners/landlords and NOT from farang owned and English advertised properties.

good trick also is to have the thai call them and find out the price before you go check the place out, and have the thai make no mention of the fact that a farang is actually going to be renting it...make them think its for the thai. once they've already quoted you the thai price, they can't take it back [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
