Frequently asked questions
What is the minimum stay?
28 nights, all year round — the same minimum as our Airbnb listings, but booked direct, with no platform fees.
What is included in the rent?
Everything: electricity, water, ultra-fast WiFi, free parking, a real workspace. One price, no hidden fees, no meter surprises.
How do I book?
Send a booking request — nothing is paid online. Benz, our manager, confirms availability (usually within 24 hours) and sends the payment instructions: month 1 + the refundable security deposit, by PromptPay, Thai bank transfer or Wise.
How much is the security deposit?
15,000 ฿ for the studios and 25,000 ฿ for the two Chic condos (A705 & A714). It is refunded after the checkout inspection — it is not rent.
How do the long-stay discounts work?
−7% from 84 nights, −12% from 168 nights, −18% from 336 nights, on the whole stay. Months are paid at the full seasonal price and the entire discount is applied to your final month — or pay 100% upfront and get the discount immediately.
When is each month due?
Month 1 at confirmation, then each 30-night block is due the day before it starts. Benz sends a reminder 5 days ahead.
Why book direct rather than Airbnb?
Same apartments, same host — but no platform fees, so our direct rates are lower than the same apartment on Airbnb, and direct stays get our duration discounts of up to −18%, which our Airbnb listings do not include. Compare with your final Airbnb quote for the same dates. Airbnb remains available if you prefer paying by card.
Can I visit before booking?
Yes — contact us to arrange a viewing with Benz.
Rawai or Karon — which area should I choose?
Rawai is calmer, more local and cheaper, with Nai Harn Beach a few minutes away by scooter. Karon is a beach town where you can walk to a long sandy beach. Both have fast WiFi and a workspace in every apartment.
Is the WiFi good enough for video calls?
Yes. Every apartment has fast, unlimited WiFi included in the rent and a laptop-friendly workspace. We recommend a local SIM card as a backup, as anywhere.
Do I need a visa for a monthly stay?
It depends on your nationality and length of stay. Many long-stay remote workers use the Destination Thailand Visa (DTV). Always check the official Thai e-Visa website.
