부동산 — Phalagoon Resort
Phalagoon Resort is a quiet, mid-range compound of low-rise buildings set around a pool in a semi-rural part of Rayong. The lobby is a cool tiled space with rattan furniture and a slow ceiling fan, giving off the relaxed, practical vibe of a provincial hotel that serves beach trippers and workers passing through. It suits travellers who want clean rooms, a pool and parking without frills or coastal views, and who plan to use it as a base for day trips.
Rayong 연대기
Rayong began as a small fishing and trading port on the Gulf of Thailand, growing slowly through the Ayutthaya and early Rattanakosin eras due to its fertile orchards and coastal access. The city's modern transformation dates to the 1980s, when the Eastern Seaboard industrial boom built ports, petrochemical plants and the Map Ta Phut complex east of town. Its architecture mixes concrete shop-houses, Chinese-influenced shophouse rows, and newer condos and malls that serve a growing expat and factory-worker population. Today Rayong balances its industrial base with a tourism identity centred on nearby beaches, islands and fruit orchards, keeping a workaday feel rather than a resort gloss.

December to February: dry season with low humidity, clear skies and temperatures around 28-32°C; also the coolest and most comfortable for exploring the coast.
Peak / Festival Surge 근처 오락거리
April (Songkran / Thai New Year) is the busiest, with domestic tourists filling hotels; prices can double. The Rayong Fruit Festival in May also lifts demand. Both months are hot (35°C+) with brief thunderstorms.
Budget Shoulder 시즌
March and November offer decent weather, lower hotel rates and thinner crowds. March can be very hot but is reliably dry; November sees the tail of the wet season but plenty of sunny days.
날씨 & 포장

Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Phalagoon Resort, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on floors 3 or 4 at the back of the building (away from the road) for a balance of quiet and reasonable stair access.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid ground-floor rooms near the reception or lift lobby — they catch foot traffic and any early-morning luggage noise. Also skip any room facing the front of the property where street noise from Rayong's main roads can filter in.
Best views
The best view is from a back-facing room on floor 4 — you'll look over neighbouring rooftops and a bit of greenery rather than the street.
Quietest floors
Floors 3 and 4 are the quietest, as they sit above street-level hustle but are not high enough to pick up roof mechanical noise.
🔊 Noise notes
Rayong's streets have local traffic (motorbikes, songthaews) from early morning until late evening. The resort's own lift and service areas can be audible on lower floors.
Insider tips
1) If you drive, arrive early to bag a shaded parking spot under the carport — Rayong gets hot. 2) Ask for a room on the back side at check-in; staff are usually happy to oblige if available.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

🚐 Pre-book an airport transfer →주위를 둘러보는
Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK) → Mac Garden Hotel, Rayong
💡 Go to the official taxi stand at the airport (gate 4 or 7 on level 1) to avoid touts. Meter plus 50 baht surcharge is standard; the fixed price quoted at the counter is often higher but hassle-free. Ask the driver to use Highway 7 — it's faster than the coastal road.
Ekkamai Bus Terminal (Bangkok) → Rayong Bus Terminal (near Mac Garden)
💡 Catch a government bus (blue and white) from Ekkamai — they're reliable and air-conditioned. Get off at the Rayong bus terminal, then take a songthaew or motorbike taxi (50 THB) to Mac Garden on Sukhumvit Road. Avoid the private vans that hang around the terminal; they overcharge.
Rayong city center (e.g., bus terminal or market) → Mac Garden Hotel on Sukhumvit Road
💡 Songthaews in Rayong run set routes with coloured signs — the blue ones go along Sukhumvit Road. Flag one down, tell the driver your stop (or show the hotel name in Thai), and pay the flat fare when you get off. They're slow and can be hot, but they're dirt cheap and locals use them.
U-Tapao Rayong-Pattaya International Airport (UTP) → Mac Garden Hotel, Rayong
💡 U-Tapao is smaller than BKK but closer. Taxis queue outside arrivals; fix the price before getting in. Morning flights are cheaper as fewer people head to Rayong. Check if your hotel offers pickup — some do for an extra fee.
