Homestays are in many ways the ideal type of accommodation, including for the budget traveler.  This is especially true for budget travelers with families, since you can often rent or stay in an entire house for one rate that would cost less than even two rooms in a medium-priced hotel.Further, no hotel can compete with a homestay in terms of peace, quiet, comfort, and atmosphere.

Nowadays, homestays can be found throughout Thailand in virtually any part of the country.Another great thing about homestays is that many are geared towards longer stays, with even better rates than you’d get staying only one or two nights.  Finally, you’ll get to see, share, and learn many times more about Thai life, customs, families, food, and culture by using homestays whenever possible as your journey through Thailand unfolds.
