Baan Talay Samran Neighbourhood

Baan Talay Samran area is about 6 kilometers from the city center. Just and just walking distance. For most people it is too far away to walk because of the hot climate. It you think to walk downtown, do it early morning when it is not too hot. Follow the beach (try to stay near). Probably you want to take a taxi back. Especially if have bought something from Cha Am. There are fixed price to Baan Talay Samran, no use to bargain. By car using public roads it is more than 10 kilometers to Cha Am.
Land around Baan Talay Samran seems to be quite peaceful. No big buildings except near the beach.
When we were there it war summertime, off season. Huge Apartment buildings were totally empty, except guards and housekeeping. The place is probably different during winter when most of the tourists come. There was a lot of "for sale" signs on empty sites, maybe the Baan Talay Samran Neighbourhood looks different noadays. It was summer 2007 when we were there, I don't know when you read this.
