LOL, That was a "Who's Who" and what a comfortable place .. Must feel great, all those people who found their way there as the result of watching your Vids .. Happy New Year
Bloody brilliant to see Brian still knocking around. I had no idea he was out in Thailand until I found this video.. and even more surprised how well he looks. Really fond memories of himself and super stars. Would love to come out there and just spend a bit of time with you all. The place looks fantastic. All the best Brian and continued good luck 👍 dave sadler. West London.
Hi Heath , I'm new to the channel and must say I love your style , voice and delivery....add the very informative Vlogs. You can't go wrong ! 👍🏻👍🏻 I'm a leukemia sufferer under no present treatment so I'm hoping to spend a month away from it all. I have a partner but I think it's time I did new things , went to different places , experience new food, customs and surroundings ....and started to enjoy my retirement. Hoping Jane can join me ....both enjoy a break then stay out for a month after that before my next appointment with my consultant. Brian's place looks just the ticket and I do like the sound of the "5 o' clock club" and meeting up with fellow travellers and getting their experiences of what to do and not to do. Beats any trip advisor into a top hat in my book. Looking to be mid to late September.... Thanks again for leading myself in the right direction. Be happy and healthy , Gary 🙏
Brilliant Heath, apart from Brian being a sporting legend he comes across as a great fella and no nonsense with him, the place has like a wee community vibe going and I bet there is some interesting stories told when they get to talking, thanks for sharing Heath and Lampon.
I've not seen Brian Jacks since about April 2010 when he passed me on Pattaya Klang near Beach Rd. I know he used to frequent Canterbury Tales, as I've spent many months there over several years. It was perhaps my 1st go-to for accommodation providing they had a room available for the next month or so. Ive actually stayed there since Thomas the Danish guy's taken over. Jes a very good fella too.
Great update. Answered a couple of things I would have asked. Being retired I am thinking of spending longer in Thailand and this place would be ideal. And yes I do remember Brian Jacks. Kind regards Geoff. UK.
Just a quick shout out to you and lampuhn. Your videos are great, I watch a lot of them as they usually only have solid useful information….thanks! Looks like an interesting place with great value!
I’ve had Thai-Chinese landlords that I rented my condos from in Pattaya. I never received my full deposit back despite I left the place perfectly on order and clean. ( They’ll make up an excuse to keep the deposit). Good to rent from a reasonable Westerner.)
@@fromoneendofthailand it was cool that the residents spent some time talking with you. You asked some good questions and they seemed relaxed in front of the camera
I remember Brian Jacks always dominating BBC Superstars. If he puts the same effort into his apartments, they will be good. Looking at the map, you would need transport to get there and get about, but I am glad I know about these units now.
Hey Heath, I really liked your first vid on the View Debut this one is even better. I'm in the middle of the USA and after seeing your first and then having the answer from you about market prices I was betting busy with the things that are necessary for international travel. Then I heard that the Thai Gov. was instituting new tourist regulations, then easing a bit, then another change, etc.etc. I am unjabbed and intend to stay that way, so when I see the various rules on and off and up and down, then I notice all of the masks on folk, in the clips around Pattaya and BKK, I realize that I would probably get crosswise with the authorities. But keep up the great work of showing the side of Pattaya that isn't a bar. Your eye for what is of real interest is fantastic. Thank you.
Thanks for the kind comment. Yes, the U-turn regarding jab requirements did cause some confusion. However, keep in mind that many Thais (especially in BKK) wore masks before Covid, so I imagine they will continue to do so. At this time (12/01/23) you do not need to show proof of being vaccinated to enter the kingdom. Thanks again. 👍
I remember watching him do that record, think he might of done one for squat thrusts, but that could of just been on superstars, i was around seven or eight. Such a humble person for someone who was such a big star. The hydraulic superstar bull worker is still going strong , i still use it for warm ups now and again along with my Joe Weider weights I got in my early teens and have the mounting bracket as part of a pully rig i made out of an old bench to hold the weights on. I've got a shoulder impingement I've been sorting out since October but will be back at in another six weeks or so. Thanks Brian for being an inspiration, you're a legend and thanks Heath keep up the Videos.
Thanks Brut. Always good to hear those memories people have of Brian. He's reads the comments and I am sure he appreciates you taking the time to write. Thanks again. 👍
The Dark Side has its charm...but the requirement to have a motorbike kinda puts me off. I would consider it if I do a long term stay. I like the pool, the people, the WiFi...all good stuff. And that rooster in the background gives the place "charm"
Hi Heath, have you ever thought of renting a small 2 bedroom house? I’ve been living in Jomtien now for nearly 3 years and me and my Thai girlfriend have just started searching, would be a change from living in a condo. Some we’ve seen are usually around 10/12,000baht a month near the Caddyshack pub area so far! Maybe we should checkout the darkside as well! Brian’s a great fella, his place is very affordable for what you get! Your vlogs are getting better for sure, good to chat with the guests 😊
Thanks, Roy. There are some nice houses around the darkside. If I were ever to rent a house it would be more inland, maybe near a lake. Yes they seem a lot cheaper and offer more space. 😎
I rented a 2 bedroom bungalow soi Khaw Noi "dark side" 2014 at 10,000 a month, for a year. Nice gated community. Its really chilled in East Pattaya. Everything you need there as well over that side. I bet the same place is only 12,000 now. Was modern build European standard.
I've stayed there is really nice and quiet I didn't stay long only a few days I would've liked to known if grab Taxi's go out there if you have no transport unfortunately Brian was in England when I stayed no chance to meet him I can vouch that the people there are very friendly and accommodating I would definitely like to stay again oh yes motorbikes taxis do work from that area
never let that thought creep in that you should be getting something done while on holidays.... I know its hard when you spent most of your life working but you now deserve the down time great and informative video thank you 😁🇨🇦🙏
Very interesting video. Great information and a wonderful documentation of the place. I have only one question....where are the ladies? Is this an exclusive 'men's club' complex? In today's world you never know so I thought I would ask because I am coming to check out the Pattaya area with my wife and daughter in March 2024 for a month. We are the same age as most in this video.
Thanks. No, it's not exclusively a men's club. It would be fine for your wife and daughter depending on the available room size of course. Your daughter (depending on her age) would probably find the area a bit dull compared to the activities available in other areas. Many of the guys there live with their Thai girlfriends. The guys in the video were just the ones hanging around the pool when I visited.
Thanks for the immediate reply. My wife and I are in our mid 60's and my daughter is 43. My daughter will not be moving there with us. I am an avid paraglider pilot and am interested in flying the sites on Koh Larn. I am looking for a neighborhood away from the sex traffic and go go bars. My wife would like to be around active expats her age who do things other than shop and eat all day. We qualify for the retirement visa and will be looking for either a bungalow on the beach or a condo close to the beach with an ocean view (full ocean view... not a slice of the water between two other towers. LOL) We have a budget of 88,000 baht/$2,500 US per month. I will be visiting for a month in Feb/Mar 2024. I'll keep watching your videos for more information. Thanks again for the reply.
Hi...I noticed that one gentleman was in a wheelchair...and I wondered if there is a lift/elevator in the building ? I haven't noticed one in any of the hallways ... Thanks as always.
Hi Newton. No, there are no lifts but there are rooms on the ground floor. I made a video and chatted with Alan about wheelchair accessibility in places and people with disabilities coming to Thailand. Should be online within a few days. 👍
@@brianjacks1792 we all love Kevin, Brian. National treasure that bloke. Glad to see you’re still going strong bud. I’ll come say hello when I’m over there later this year.
@@brianjacks1792 The gardens and pool area look great. A Brit here, I'll probably be along for a few months at the end of the year to miss the brutal English winter. Looks like a real community vibe you've created there, and the prices are excellent. - Cheers.
Good question. Yes, it is allowed, but like other places, it must be done in private and not in public areas. Note it is de-criminalised, not legalised. On your balcony is fine.
Hey Heath, Great Video & Channel. What's the nearest good beach from View Dee Apartments if you want to go swimming and whats the wifi like in View Dee. I know you said you stayed there for a while.
Thanks, Craig. WIFI has been upgraded since I was there, although I had my own installed. Pattaya is not a great beach for swimming but a trip to Koh Larn Island will give you the best waters for swimming. Or a trip to Jomtien.
Thanks Heath for the info. When you got your own internet installed at View Dee did you have to sign a 12 month contract and was costly to get it installed. Any info on this will be appreciated.
Thanks Heath for the additional info. Was there much work for the AIS technicians to get it installed and was Brian cool with this. Also once it was installed, did you have your own router in your room. Reason I am asking is, I will be working remotely and need a good internet connection while staying there.
I would really consider to live at this place on my Patta stay. But i wonder about this : Is it easy to book a BOLT/GRAB Taxi ride from there?? And what is the price to Walking street ? Is it ok, for taking the trip couple time a week?
@@fromoneendofthailand Thats a good price, and absolutly doable twice or more a week. Thanks for answer. I might rent a room in this place for a few months.
Sorry about the misspelling. I'm planning to do a one year Thai language course with ABC at Pattaya. Brian's email would be useful for further enquiries. Thx
If you contact me via my website at heathwoodward.com, I will be able to forward you his email. I do not put emails public as it attracts spammers. Thanks. 😎
Hi Mr Micky. The restaurant closed before Covid so I never mentioned it. It has reopened at a location about 50 metres away. It's now called Som's Kitchen.
@@fromoneendofthailand Thank you for this fast response, Sir. I, a 1st dan, Black belt, had a feeling that the place has the atmosphere of a judo dojo.
You're very welcome, Rachel. I think the View Dee has a FB page but I am not sure if it is monitored these days. The best way would be to give Brian a call. The number is in the description. Thanks again. 👍
Some expats and visitors live with their Thai partners there. Not many single western women would choose to live on the darkside when visiting Pattaya.
but correct me if i'm wrong guys, when you say X amount a month, that is actually X amount a month for a year right ? but if it's just for a month only then it's more expensive right ?
I do not know if there is one in that area but they is a standard gym within a 2-minute walk. They is a Muay Thai gym in nearby Jomtien. See here ua-cam.com/video/-16B9tn9adM/v-deo.html

I am not sure. I think he has Hondas. 😐
Great video, Is there a minimum period for renting an apartment at the Viewdee ?
Thanks, Simon. One month. 👍
No minimum Time as long as you like
Sorry about the misspelling. I'm planning to do a one year Thai language course with ABC at Pattaya. Brian's email would be useful for further enquiries. Thx
If you contact me via my website at heathwoodward.com, I will be able to forward you his email. I do not put emails public as it attracts spammers. Thanks. 😎
This is kinda far out location. How long to get to central pattaya and is the bus near by?
A Bolt taxi is your best option. Takes about 25 minutes to get to Pattaya.
You don't mention the restaurant that is there is it still closed down
Hi Mr Micky. The restaurant closed before Covid so I never mentioned it. It has reopened at a location about 50 metres away. It's now called Som's Kitchen.
Hi Heath new follower here,can i ask Where your place is now unless i have missed it.Thanks
Hi Shaun. Welcome to the channel. My condo or View Dee Apartments? I live in Jomtien.
@@fromoneendofthailand Thanks heath ,jomtien look nice,i shall visit in march i have a month booked...
I need a medical. I insurance 3month a year year any suggestion
Check with your local bank as they may offer travel insurance for short trips.
Does the condo available for a S Korean retiree ?
Wouldn't be a problem. 👍
@@fromoneendofthailand Thank you for this fast response, Sir. I, a 1st dan, Black belt, had a feeling that the place has the atmosphere of a judo dojo.
Would like to stay and play lots of golf with like minded holidaymakers
Heath thanks for all the info. Would love to stay in the place Brian owns. Dies he have a fb account or anything?
You're very welcome, Rachel. I think the View Dee has a FB page but I am not sure if it is monitored these days. The best way would be to give Brian a call. The number is in the description. Thanks again. 👍
@@fromoneendofthailand Thank You very much
Assume they are reasonable but what is the unit rates for electricity and water he's charging? Assume they are not the government rates.
Slightly higher. Not sure on the exact rates but you will find unless you leave the aircon on 24/7, it will be about 800 baht per month.
@@fromoneendofthailand Not sure that really helps but thanks anyway.
This place looks lovely, do any women stay here?
Some expats and visitors live with their Thai partners there. Not many single western women would choose to live on the darkside when visiting Pattaya.
Maybe I should rephrase that 🤔. Women are most welcome there but it does seem to have mostly male residents.
Well done and said .. What a great guy ~~~
Me or Brian? Ha ha, just joking. Thanks, John.
Thanks John look forward to meeting you at some time
The scooter Brian rents out for 1400 baht a month. What model, brand and engine capacity is it?
Sorry, I do not know the details of the bikes.
I just left a message on Facebook to Brian for a stay in middle of the year for a month
but correct me if i'm wrong guys, when you say X amount a month, that is actually X amount a month for a year right ? but if it's just for a month only then it's more expensive right ?
You can book for one month and it will be the same price as if you stay longer.
@@fromoneendofthailand cheers good to know, much appreciated guys
Can u explain , what is the dark side ?
Years ago there were no street lights in this area. They have them now of course. 😎
is there any mountain bike trails near pattaya?
There's a few areas for cycling. ua-cam.com/video/bNguFycXvRE/v-deo.html and ua-cam.com/video/CkTYF2UY2e4/v-deo.html
I cycle around Maprachan lake which is just 2 k from the appartments and its 10k around the cycle track
Is there a Muay Thai gym near by?
I do not know if there is one in that area but they is a standard gym within a 2-minute walk. They is a Muay Thai gym in nearby Jomtien. See here ua-cam.com/video/-16B9tn9adM/v-deo.html
