Fat Coco Beach Club construction
Fat Coco Beach Club construction has been in progress for many months during 2019, many of the following photos have been taken from the 20th floor of Markland which overlooks the A-One Hotel. As you can see above it was just a normal swimming pool area.
Lets dig some holes they said…
It will be an improvement they said. 🙂
From ground level
This was September 2019.
What a mess. 🙂
They work from very early in the morning until late at night.
September 12th, week 2.
Still too early to get an idea of their plans.
Concrete roof
First they made a frame then set the concrete on top.
Raised platform
Adjacent to the footpath, perhaps if will provide privacy? Wh knows what they are planning.
It’s getting very confusing
They have put dirt in the bottom of the pool, & those large white blocks are foam.
Foam being laid on top of the dirt.
I have no idea why they are following this procedure. 🙂
Chopping up the foam
Hopefully I can find out about this method.
The bar I presume
I’m betting the alcohol prices will be rather expensive. 🙂
On her perch. 🙂
Fat Coco Beach Club Work is finished & she is sitting four meters in the air checking her messages.

They work on this structure to after 10 pm at night.
Lets thatch this gizmo. 🙂
Looks good.
Fat Coco Beach Club
Paradise, I doubt, more like a noise factory.
Houston, we have a problem…
The noise factory is about to open, my advice to my neighbours in Markland, start getting quotes on double glazing. 🙂
December 8 2019
You can see a round shallow pool being built here.
Thatched canopy
Not sure, but this may be where the band sets up.
Houston, we have a problem.
Check out the size of the speakers, noise city will not be pretty.
Here is the finished product. just follow this link.
Thanks for visiting my Fat Coco Beach Club photo blog.
My history, particularly over the last 30 years is dominated by overseas travel. I sold my home in Australia October 20th 2011 and have have been living in Thailand since then. I don’t know where the time has gone? It seems like you go to sleep one night, wake up the next morning, and 20 years have flashed by. Not sure how many years I have left, however I have enjoyed a wonderful charmed life, and if it all ended today I would leave this world with no regrets.
I was born in Sydney halfway through the last century, started my travels in the 60s with the usual U.K. Europe adventure at the age of 20, back to Australia and worked in Sydney, Melbourne & Adelaide in Sales & Marketing with multinational companies including Sanyo, Canon & Remington.
Engaged to be married 3 times and never quite made it to the alter, finally realized by the mid 90s I was not cut out for "long term relationships" so I moved to the Gold Coast in Queensland in January 1987, worked for a couple of banks as a Financial Planner, I took a year off work in 1998 to travel and never went back to full time work again, after 25 fun filled years on the Coast I packed up and moved to Thailand.
What is the purpose of this blog? Well I really want to use it to record my travel experiences & to display my photographs, give and receive travel tips, comment on places I visit, restaurants I eat in and use it to replace the autobiography I intended to write, apart from all that it helps me fill in my day. :)
I moved to Thailand mainly because I wanted to keep travelling while my health allowed me to, there are huge advantages being closer to all the places I want to visit.
Cost of living in Thailand is around 35% of the cost in Australia, plus flights are 50% cheaper because you are much closer to everywhere. ????
Consequently I am able to travel to many more places compared to living in Australia.
Having said all that, it is & has always been my intention to return to Australia when my travelling is finished, I predict this will happen around 2021.
