I very much agree with Vinapu that things have changed, certainly since I made my first trip to Thailand in 2000. Then you were very much more likely to get harassment from a minority of aggressive straights whilst out and about with younger Thai men. I still am wary of taking boys around the Soi Buakhow area in Pattaya. You occasionally see women in bikinis sat in gay sections of the Dongtan Beach presumably for the same reason Vinapu mentions.

The Complex today differs from Sunee of a few years ago in another way and that concerns str tourists. You never saw them in Sunee which was overwhelmingly a ghetto for gay men looking for sex with Asian boys. The Complex on the other hand is mixed particularly in the hotels. I’ve stayed this year twice in the Agate and once in the Zing and in both the guests were a mixture of gays like myself and str families/couples , whereas that was definitely not the case in the one hotel I used intermittently in Sunee. I have been occasionally conscious of stares and glances from strs when in the lobby/lift/restaurent and round the pools when I have a boy in tow. This does bother me at all, but from the point of view of strs, I wonder if they are misled by the reports by guests on Booking.com etc where there is hardly a mention of the orientation of the Complex and it’s bars and hotels.

About what year would that Be ? It obviously features the Complex quite a long time ago showing the Ganymede Spa and Massage which has been the Agate Hotel for some time. Just noticed that one of the bars advertises a Songkran party in 2014 so not that long ago. During 2014 Sunee was still going strong but starting to decline. But of course Boyztown was very much the gay place to be then

I’ve stayed at the Agate three times this year so can very much relate to emiel1981’s complaint about the massage boys and their calling out whilst you are walking past their nearby location. However I would not call this stalking rather just a nuisance and something you have to put up with whilst staying in a popular gay area and I wouldn’t base my choice of hotel on that basis. Having said that I admit to having used the passage to the main road when conducting a boy back to the Agate from a visit with him to the beach. I didn’t want a non-English call out perhaps relating to a massage I had had the previous day.

Thinking back to Sunee in the early 2000’s when I was a regular visiter I very much remember Krazy Dragon and Eros but not Goodboys. For a while my favourite Gogo was Euro Boys where the boys danced in briefs between two lines of elevated seating holding ropes dangling from the ceiling. During a couple of trips I stayed in a hotel within the Plaza named “Elephant” or something like that. This avoided the walk back to Boyztown which offed boys did not care for and had rooms for short time.

Great enjoyable account of your 3 day visit to Bkk which I loved reading. My last three trips have been to Pattaya, latterly staying in the Complex, so I’m planning to make my next one to Bkk, so your story of sex/massage, gym exercise, food and the night market is very relavent for me. All the activities I enjoy in fact !. Grindr seems to have been a fruitful source of mb’s. Have an equally good time in Taiwan.

Happy Boys Yes I seem to remember this boy bar, particularly the mezzanine floor, where you could go to be entertained if the ground floor was not raunchy enough for you. It was in fact a short distance outsides Sunee using what could be regarded as the “back entrance” to the plaza on maybe Soi 18. It looked from the outside more like a shop rather than a Gogo. I don’t think I visited more than a couple of times and I’m sure I never offed from there. I can’t pinpoint when in closed but it probably did so when Sunee had not started it’s decline.

I go to Pattaya because I’m gay and love Asian boys, but have enjoyed guys from Madagascar. During my trip in last February I ‘had two of them separately, each for 2 or 3 nights. They have slim brown bodies and perform well in bed. They were both on student visas in Thailand, but learnt more about gay sexual practices than their study subjects.

Good suggestion khaolakguy but not for the uninitiated as there are no ATM’s actually in the Complex . But that does not trouble the bar boys as they have another source of ready cash not requiring account names , passwords and PIN numbers !.

During my recent 2 week stay within the “area” I never heard any mention of “Supertown” by any residents or workers there. It was always “Jomtien Complex” right from my arrival at the Jomtien Bus Terminal from where I wheeled my bag to the Agate Hotel and subsequently there and in conversations on the gay beach and in bars and with motor bike taxi men. I can’t remember any mention with boys - probably they have their own name.

I used poppers quite often about 10 years ago when I transitioned from being a 100% top to being more verse. For a period I had a Thai boyfriend with a big Isaan cock. They helped. I occasionally brought a small supply from home but was never stopped at airports. I know that they are widely available in gay venues and some mb offer them.

I’ve seen all three episodes number 1 featured mainly Khai Sarn Road and the canabis boom. Présenter nearly got arrested in Soi Cowboy Number 2 visited Soi 6 Pattaya. Further difficulties with the police Number 3 tye 20 year old female presenter found paradise on Koh Panyan no mention at all about the gay scene

The suggestion of Thaifriendly is a good one. The number of active mb’s, of interest to us gays, at any time is small, but it’s easy to use and make contact, and it helps if you have Line or WhatsApp. Boys are greatly outnumbered by sections which are restricted to females and ladyboys.

I’ve just checked their website which features a sequence in which a really hot muscular Asian guy removes his gown and displays his superb body without giving a glimpse of his cock. That would have tempted me to visit during my recent stay in the Complex, if I had been aware of the place. Within the Complex there are several gay massage business's of which I only visited Soda, although I did go twice, the first time being late at night when there was not much choice of masseur, but the one who latched onto me gave full satisfaction. Perhaps the new place will serve expats rather than gay tourists like myself.

I visited the M Bar three times for the 10 pm show , whilst I was staying in The Complex. Usually I arrived a little earlier and was presented by a choice of boys to sit with me awaiting the start. You must have been lucky to see those delicious bare buttocks as none of the boys wore a jock whilst I was there. Once I offed one of the bar boys after the show to my room at the Ambience, where he wore one of the jocks I had brought with me.

After 25 years of visiting Pattaya as a gay sex tourist I can only Claim having two sexual interactions with non money boys. The first was fairly early in my career, I think in 2005, when I was in the habit of spending the afternoons on the gay section of Dongtan beach. Which In those days it was a a fertile source of freelance mbs, who seemed to turn up in the late afternoon wearing skimpy speedos etc. One afternoon I was there sat in a rented chair perving at the boys, some with guys some wandering about looking. Suddenly I became aware of two boys at the waters edge one in brief speedos one in rather old shorts. The former was quickly invited by a customer to his chair and was bought a drink, the other who looked rather younger continued to stand in the water. I tried a couple of times waving him to join me but he hesitated for a short while until his companion jumped up and led him to my chair introducing him as “my brother” only just come Pattaya, and had commenced working in a laundry, which he didn’t like. I bought both of them a drink but didn’t take matters further. Two days later I was again on the beach when the two boys turned up again,the younger now sporting brief yellow speedos, displaying his shapely buttocks, and both joined me. After a while the older one left us and I invited the younger to enter the calm water with me. After a little splashing about I closed in and got my hands on his cock which met with my approval as did my tongue kissing. Of course i took him back to my hotel during which time he told that his job was “ finish” and that he wanted a farang boyfriend instead. I’m trying to remember how I terminated him. I certainly had hm for two nights and in those days I was 100 per cent top. It probable was towards the end of my trip so I don’t know if he became a regular mb. Certainly he had the body (young slim nice shade of brown rock hard cock) to work gogo

Gays in the audience love this boy. He’s a superb dancer and so beautiful.

Yes the Gus boys put on a great show every evening in Supertown / The Complex which I attend and enjoy. They are a group of lads mostly from Laos who have improved their show of vigorous dancing which attracts a good audience comprising residents as mentioned by kokopelli3 some from Agate and the Venue. They dance in cute white shorts without tops, and are very much in the twink category. The dancers are supplemented by a number of non-dancing bar boys who circulate amongst the audience and sit with them looking for boy drinks and offs.

I recon you could rent somewhere in the Complex, particularly on a weekday night. Things are very quiet just now. Maybe even in Boystown where it is even quieter

I viewed the show last night from the bar opposite. The ladyboys gave a good performance to rather a thin audience. There were no boys involved, unlike in February when I was last in the Complex.

I’ve heard mention of sniff kisses, but have no intention of trying unlike tongue kissing which I really enjoy, especially during Anal. You never know how the boy will react until you try.

Well there is no other options in Sunee now Or maybe I’m wrong. If I had navigated the dark and unfriendly sois to get there I might give the place a try.

A few years ago i took the train from bkk to Hua Hin with a gay friend and our two boyfriends. One thing I remember was our visit to a temple populated by monkeys who swarmed all over us. I thought the huge beach was superior to that at Jomtien and good for jogging which I was into at the time. However during our two night stay I saw no gay bars or any other guys with Asian boys. It would now be a lengthy journey by road from Pattaya.

I spend the majority of my Thailand 2/3 week trips in Pattaya and in recent years I’ve stayed within Jomtien Supertown (The Complex), which has now deposed Boystown as the premier gay area. The Agate would be a good choice and it’s becoming more popular so don’t wait too long before making your reservation. Its main competitor, in Supertown, is the Zing Resort which is cheaper and has a variety of room sizes and a larger pool . Both are guest friendly and well known to the bar boys and as a single gay guest I’ve occasionally found friends amongst the other residents. Supertown is walking distance from the Jomtien airport bus terminal which can be also convenient for transport to Bangkok city . I prefer the bus to taxis for safety reasons, and only use motor cycle taxis when speed is required and would not rent a motor cycle which I used to do years ago. Always have safety in the forefront of your mind especially in unfamiliar settings !
