Pattaya Secrets is the 2nd oldest and the 2nd largest of the main Pattaya Forums in terms of post counts but it has now fallen back to 3rd place, behind Pattaya Addicts in terms of members. It was started, and run by the consortium of members who own and manage the Secrets Bar and Hotel off Walking Street Pattaya.

Like other bar owned forums it has an (understandable) bias towards towards it own bar although this means that unbiased opinion for its members is less likely. In the past it has been embroiled in "forum wars" mainly with the now defunct Pattaya-Chat but also, to a lesser degree, with PattayaTalk. The fight with the former seemed to be personal and with the latter more commercially orientated due to the fact that one of the managers from the bar that owns the PattayaTalk site left to join the Secrets Bar and Hotel consortium.

Of the main forums this is probably the most overtly sexual, which explains its fairly rapid growth. These include a Couples and Alternative Lifestyles section (for couples, swingers and ladyboy lovers) which seems to be increasingly popular. However before you all rush off to join it please note that it has several different "levels" inro which you must be invited as a member - each level basically gets naughtier and naughtier. The aforementioned Couples and Alternative Lifestyles section even requires you to PROVE who you are by showing credit card details (numbers deleted) and passport copy. Somewhat excessive in my view for a chat forum.

It does seem to make a particular play for "couples" both on the forum and at the hotel. If you are couple looking for fun in Pattaya then this may be the board for you.

It also seems more open minded towards ladyboys than the other boards.

It has been accused (though I cannot confirm) that it has been guilty of both editing members posts and, worse still, of making members "Private Messages" available to the administrators. A private message in my view should remain exactly that - private.

Hot Condo in Pattaya by Ken Edwards

As you all know, Thailand is a country with wonderful beaches that are visited by people not only for sunbathing but they are used for diving as well. Besides in Thailand you can see gorgeous girls dancing traditional Thai dances, wearing colorful costumes and moving their hands and fingers in a fascinating way. Moreover, Thailand is the paradise of tropical fruit and the home of a multitude of mysteries related to the invisible world of the spirits. But nowadays, Thailand in general and Pattaya especially is an opportunity for those who want to purchase a condo. This is a great opportunity especially for foreigners who come to live in Pattaya, because one of the local laws concerning foreigners restricts the right for them to own a land in the area. On the other hand it is beneficial for local people too, to get a condo, because Pattaya is situated not far from Bangkok and people living in the capital can afford to purchase a condo in Pattaya as a weekend or holiday destination.

Pattaya condos are in general located on the beach, which is a great attraction for any solar human being who can imagine that in the morning instead of having a shower in the bathroom rushes into the sea and lets his or her body caressed by friendly or rough waves.
