Amari Beachside Hotel Pattaya

July 18, 2015 by David Herd

This section of the hotel has been demolished to make way for a new tower in 2019.

Amari Beachside Hotel Pattaya

Amari Beachside Hotel Pattaya is on Beach Road opposite the beach and has beautiful gardens and grounds. If you can afford it stay in the Ocean Tower, good rates through this link.

It is May 2017 & a huge renovation is underway, the Garden section is being totally demolished & a new tower will be constructed in its place. Tavern by the sea on Beach Rd will also be demolished.

Two fabulous pools

Lots of places to relax & chill out.

Relax at the bar

This is my kind of bar. 🙂

Ocean tower room

Sorry about the unmade bed but it was a little early for the maid service, which is a very high standard I might add. Check the Webcam here for the Ocean Tower view.

View towards Wongamat beach

The yellow building on the left is the Dusit Thani and the 2nd high-rise from the left is Cape Dara Hotel. The high rise buildings overlook my favourite bar, the Beach Club at the Pullman Hotel.

A nice modern reception.

November 2007 Ocean Tower opens.

I’m with a group of acquaintances from Australia at the opening of the Ocean Tower in November 2007.

Opening night

Here are the happy entertainers on opening night of the Ocean Tower in November 2007.

Tavern By the Sea

This is part of the Amari hotel and offers many great food specials. Two for one drinks between 5 & 7pm each night.

Ribs & Wings

All you can eat for 469 Baht every Wednesday, in fact I was there last Wednesday July 15 2015.

Terrific duo

This duo were fantastic entertainers, both have great voices and they perform a really good style of dinner music.

The jewel in the crown

The Mantra has been my favourite restaurant since it opened back in 2004, the Sunday brunch is magnificent.

Sunday brunch is the best

Without a doubt the Mantra Sunday brunch is the best I have had anywhere in the world. If you visit Pattaya put it at the top of your list. Oysters from France, Alaskan crab, etc etc, nne different kitchens to choose from.
