    Overview

    Beach Road runs the full length of Pattaya Beach from Dolphin Roundabout to Walking Street. It is the city's main seafront artery — lined with hotels, restaurants, the beach itself, and the start of every baht bus route. Staying directly on Beach Road means front-row beach but also constant traffic noise and street vendors.

    • short stays
    • beach lovers
    • no-motorbike living
