BKK to AIRBNB │ Suvarnabhumi to Tierra Residences!

Home away from Home!

We picked you up again as we disembarked MH774. After a potty break we headed towards the Immigration counters. Ten minutes later we were stamped in and so headed to Carousel 19 to pick up our yellow submarines. Another ten minutes went by before our bags emerged so then we headed out of the airport.

A week ago we had made arrangements with the hosts of our Airbnb for an airport transfer. We were instructed to make our way out of Suvarnabhumi Airport via Gate 7. The driver Sammei would pick us up there for a fixed fare of THB700 (approximately USD21/EUR19/MYR93).

We got to Gate 7 at 6:40pm and Sammei picked us up ten minutes later. The drive took approximately forty minutes, and we arrived at our Airbnb, Tierra Residences at 7:30pm. We paid Sammei the agreed amount with a little something extra.

Conveniently located in the Phra Kanong area between Soi Sukhumvit 40 and 42 it was a quiet and peaceful condo, and it was for this precise reason that we booked our stay here.

It offers a saltwater swimming pool, fitness center, sun terrace, open-air bath, restaurant, bar, and free Wi-Fi throughout the property. It also boasts a family-friendly restaurant that serves Chinese, American, Thai, and international cuisines, offering brunch, lunch, dinner, high tea, and cocktails.

The check-in process was quite straight-forward as we collected the key card to the unit and made our way up to the fifth floor. The unit was well appointed and had everything we needed, complete with bed linen, towels, two flat-screen TVs, a fully equipped kitchen, and a balcony. A proper desk and work chair meant that I could work on our videos in relative comfort, which was a definite plus.

We continued our review of our unit the following day where we paid a visit to the swimming pool, courtyard, and gym on the ground floor.

For RM221 a night (approximately USD50/EUR46) we thought it was fair value given its wonderfully comfortable and cosy settings. Not to mention that Jay and his team of hosts are super helpful and very welcoming. Home for the next seven nights we believe Tierra Residence represents an excellent home away from home.

Stay tuned as we take our first stroll in Bangkok!
