Modern beach resort bungalows are good mainly for short trips, while the hut option is an exotic type of accommodation that may appeal more to romantics who want to feel like real Robinsons.
As a rule, such bungalows are located on the beach, and they are rented literally for one or two days, since they are unreliable in terms of storage, most often they have nothing inside except a bed. But this type of housing is quite comfortable, you can relax in it for quite a long time. This article will focus on a vacation in a bungalow in Thailand.
What is a bungalow?
Today it is quite common for tours to include accommodation in a bungalow, but many travelers have no idea what it is. In their minds, these are huts inhabited by local residents.
Bungalow in Thailand on the coast is an ordinary house, made in the architectural style inherent in this country. It may have 2-3 small rooms, or there may be huge rooms. The thing is that local residents do not share dwellingsfor cottages, houses, apartments in houses and villas. All living quarters for them are bungalows. But earlier, this was the name of small huts, more similar to tents, in which the whole family lived and took refuge from heavy rains and heat.
