thanks in advance.

Other than the main hotels, I've never found much else happening - organised wise.
However, the centre of town is usually great fun as a big street party around all the bars. Cheers

The problem with the big hotels is that their gala dinners are extremely expensive.

From what I undersatnd, large hotels factor in a gala dinner for xmas day and new yeears eve into accomodation price, so making sure that you spend the day/evening where you are staying.
Cheers

Last new year me and mrs H2o went and stayed on Koh Payam off the Ranong coast. Very chilled and had a lovely night on the beach with a few other peole letting off chinese balloons. There was a BBQ party atmosphere all along the beach we were at with parties at most of the beach bars, and it made for a nice change from most of the commercial new years we had spent previously. The island it self is lovely and we met some really nice people there Will more than likely be back again this new year. thumbs up
