Affiliate disclosure

Last updated: June 2026

The short version

Pattaya Pointer is free to read. The site is funded through affiliate links. When you book a hotel or an activity through a link on this site, we may earn a small commission from the booking platform — and it costs you nothing extra. That's it.

Who we work with

Pattaya Pointer participates in affiliate programmes run by travel booking platforms, which may include Booking.com, Agoda, Viator, GetYourGuide, and Klook, among others. When you click a booking link on a hotel or activity page, the platform records that the referral came from this site. If you go on to book, they pay a commission out of their own margin.

It never changes your price

You pay exactly the same price whether you reach the booking platform through a link on this site or go there directly. The commission comes from the platform, not from you.

Recommendations stay independent

Guides feature places based on what helps a traveller — quality, location, value, and real guest ratings. A hotel or activity doesn't get a better write-up because it earns a higher commission, and the site does not take payment for sponsored placements. If that ever changes, it will be labelled clearly.

Always check before you book

Prices, availability, and conditions in Pattaya change constantly. Confirm the current details on the booking platform before you commit. Your booking is a contract directly with that provider under their terms — see the Terms & Conditions for more.
