I made last minute plans to arrive this Friday in bangkok and then pattaya. I've been trying to make reservations but haven't heard back from any of them. Is jomtien complex that busy? I've grid tuis too but no response. Maybe I should fly to Phuket instead?

Last month Phuket occupancy was reported at 100% . Lots of Aussies revelling in parity with US$ and getting 30THB swamped the place. Will be easier this month as Aussie kids went back to school last week.
Should be no problem getting a room in Jomtien.

I'm not sure those Australian party-boys even know what an exchange rate is. Probably more a function of the increasing availability of direct budget flights from Oz to Phuket -- making it as cheap or cheaper to get to than Bali (which was previously their preferred stomping grounds).
