Here you are ahead with the full board.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Google Maps can be used to inspect the location of the hotel but not the perfect tool for a hotel in the jungle.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Because the street view function of Google is still available only on the main road in Samui. Some distance is still not updated.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Look like you need some good vacation advisor at the travel agency office or some good sources on the online site.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\" data-tt=\"{&quot;paragraphStyle&quot;:{&quot;alignment&quot;:4,&quot;writingDirection&quot;:1}}\">How to know if the hotel you are interested in provides a variety of foods? <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The decent hotels will have their website or at least a fan page where their contact data like phone number, email, and WhatsApp are shown.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">You can contact the hotel and ask for the list of foods. This action should proceed when you are serious about the food.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\" data-tt=\"{&quot;paragraphStyle&quot;:{&quot;alignment&quot;:4,&quot;writingDirection&quot;:1}}\">If the hotel is in city central it is up to you to contact the hotel for a food list, maybe just go for ABF. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\" data-tt=\"{&quot;paragraphStyle&quot;:{&quot;alignment&quot;:4,&quot;writingDirection&quot;:1}}\">Unless that hotel has an outstanding restaurant and is cheaper than outside. This kind of hotel exists. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Make sure by doing research of the hotel has great offers with the restaurant.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\" data-tt=\"{&quot;paragraphStyle&quot;:{&quot;alignment&quot;:4,&quot;writingDirection&quot;:1}}\">Now you say what if I don\u2018t want to stay in a busy city hotel but a quiet spa resort on a lonely beach? Should I still have to book only the full board? <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\" data-tt=\"{&quot;paragraphStyle&quot;:{&quot;alignment&quot;:4,&quot;writingDirection&quot;:1}}\">We would say, nevertheless your potential hotel is far from the city and there are not many restaurants there. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\" data-tt=\"{&quot;paragraphStyle&quot;:{&quot;alignment&quot;:4,&quot;writingDirection&quot;:1}}\">If there are just a few must-to-try restaurants nearby the area. You should invest in traveling despite the far distance to eat at those restaurants. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Again, a great tool to find a good restaurant is Google. But no good restaurants there, so go for Full Board.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\" data-tt=\"{&quot;paragraphStyle&quot;:{&quot;alignment&quot;:4,&quot;writingDirection&quot;:1}}\">Now if you have a clear lifestyle of going out every day or your body needs moving. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">You do like to try many different foods. Then no need to do 3 days of research, go for ABF. Just be careful ABF is still needed for everyone.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0It is s fixed function of hotel booking. And to find food in the morning outside the hotel here in Samui is not easy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\" data-tt=\"{&quot;paragraphStyle&quot;:{&quot;alignment&quot;:4,&quot;writingDirection&quot;:1}}\">Reversely, if your style has not much to do with walking or moving, hang out or so. Or if you are vegetarian, then easier to eat just in the hotel. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Below are brief suggestions<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\" data-tt=\"{&quot;paragraphStyle&quot;:{&quot;alignment&quot;:4,&quot;writingDirection&quot;:1}}\">Your travel styles<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\" data-tt=\"{&quot;paragraphStyle&quot;:{&quot;alignment&quot;:4,&quot;style&quot;:101,&quot;writingDirection&quot;:1}}\"> Eat-ability limit (vegetarian, see food, all foods) <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\" data-tt=\"{&quot;paragraphStyle&quot;:{&quot;alignment&quot;:4,&quot;style&quot;:101,&quot;writingDirection&quot;:1}}\"> Luxury hotel but has no outstanding food then you go for ABF<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\" data-tt=\"{&quot;paragraphStyle&quot;:{&quot;alignment&quot;:4,&quot;style&quot;:101,&quot;writingDirection&quot;:1}}\"> Luxury hotel with outstanding food then half board. You can go, full board, if you have the budget.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\" data-tt=\"{&quot;paragraphStyle&quot;:{&quot;alignment&quot;:4,&quot;style&quot;:101,&quot;writingDirection&quot;:1}}\"> Normal\/standard hotel nearby city with outstanding food then half-board <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\" data-tt=\"{&quot;paragraphStyle&quot;:{&quot;alignment&quot;:4,&quot;style&quot;:101,&quot;writingDirection&quot;:1}}\"> Normal\/standard hotel with outstanding food and sea view and is lonely in the forest then full board <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\" data-tt=\"{&quot;paragraphStyle&quot;:{&quot;alignment&quot;:4,&quot;writingDirection&quot;:1}}\"> Budget hotel (without outstanding food) then just ABF. It is understandable, for the clients who book a budget hotel. They plan not to be stuck in the hotel all day and time anywhere. They book the hotel just for sleep.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6204,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[217,215],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6203","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-issues-with-hotel","category-tips-others"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v19.14 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Which situations you need to book a full board option in hotel, which only ABF?
