Although Homestay holidays are becoming more popular in Thailand, they are still mainly of interest to the local domestic market. This is largely due to the limited English among homeowners and the inaccessibility of the locations. You will often need a Thai friend to call and book for you and your own transportation to get there. Another cause for concern are that some so-called homestays are more like resorts.
A genuine Homestay can be found in Prasae in Klaeng district of Rayong. Here there are ten houses in the local fishing community where you can stay the night with Thai families. The project has been running for six years and they have won several national awards.
A night in one of these homestays costs 350 Baht per person which includes breakfast and a tour of the local area in a “samlor”. Attractions include the local fishing village, markets and a navy ship permanently docked along the shore. There is even a 500 year old tree in a local temple. You can also join optional tour on fishing boats to catch squid or crabs.
