Between the time difference, the heat and a bar somewhere down the road, the first nights are rarely the best ones. Most people settle after three or four days. If you'd rather not lose those days, come and talk to us — we'll tell you what's worth taking and what isn't.
What actually helps
Get daylight early in the morning. It resets the clock faster than anything you can buy.
Keep the room cool but not freezing, and give the air-con a break before bed.
Go easy on late coffee and late screens — obvious, and still the main culprits.
Earplugs and an eye mask cost almost nothing and solve most of Patong.
Ask us before taking anything for sleep, especially alongside something else you already take.
