We otherwise accept USD, EUR, GBP, SGD, NZD, AUD cash notes but please note that the exchange rate will be provided by a local exchanger (with receipt) as we're not a licensed monetary exchanger in Thailand, and we will charge THB 100 for the service of visiting an exchanger for you.

Payments are received by our company: Optima Property Co Limited, Thailand. Payments can take 3-9 days.

An option to make your payment in your currency, where we will convert the currency based on the DBS Singapore bank rate for your currency ie USD to THB. You may send any amount (not limited) and we will receive, transfer and cash-out the remaining balance in THB for your holiday here. This saves multiple trips to ATM's at significant cost.

Wise is not yet formally established in Thailand. However, via one of our company Directors, we can receive and onward remit multiple currencies (although we prefer to "receive" in THB) to save any discrepancies with respect to currency conversion costs.

We do incur fees in making this happen, rather than be specific we have opted to provide blanket fees upfront i.e. 100 baht + 100 baht per 10,000. All income (including funds remittances for cash-out purposes are subject to Thai tax). The maximum remittance is THB 50,000.

Whilst we do not have a credit card processing terminal at The Great @Patong Hotel, we're able to charge credit/debit cards. However, there's a significant processing cost (we don't know why, we don't set the rates) = six percent (6%).

Therefore, if you're looking to book a room and the cost is THB 10,000 you would be charged THB 10,600. It takes 7-10 days to process the payment, so we only accept pre-bookings that are paid 14 days or longer PRIOR to your expected arrival date.
