Thailand vs. Other Retirement Havens: Why Families Still Choose Thailand for Senior Care

Search “best country to retire in Southeast Asia” and you’ll find dozens of rankings – almost all written for backpackers-turned-digital-nomads comparing beer prices and SIM card costs. That’s a completely different question from the one families actually ask when a parent needs real care: which country can actually deliver good senior care, not just a […]

How Your Pension in Thailand Is Affected: UK vs US vs Australia

Before you commit to a retirement budget in Thailand, there’s one question worth answering early: will your pension actually be worth the same once you’re living here? The honest answer depends enormously on which country you’re from. UK, US, and Australian retirees each face a completely different set of rules – and confusing them can […]

Bringing Your Pet to Thailand: A Retiree’s Relocation Guide

For a lot of retirees, “can my dog or cat come too?” isn’t a side question – it’s the question that decides whether a move to Thailand happens at all. The good news: bringing a pet to Thailand is entirely possible and fairly well-trodden ground, as long as you start the paperwork early and don’t […]

Cost of Living in Pattaya for Retirees: Budget Breakdown & Expenses

One of the first questions anyone asks before retiring to Thailand is simple: what will it actually cost? Pattaya has built its reputation as one of Southeast Asia’s most affordable coastal retirement spots, but “affordable” means different things to different people. Here’s a realistic, line-by-line look at what retirees spend on housing, food, healthcare, and […]

Nutrition & Meal Planning in Thai Senior Communities

Good nutrition becomes more, not less, important with age, and it’s often one of the first questions families ask before a move abroad. At Homerly, the answer is straightforward: our kitchen is staffed by both Western and Thai chefs, and every meal is ordered a la carte, so there’s no need to adapt to unfamiliar […]

Memory Care and Dementia Services in Thailand

A dementia diagnosis in the family changes the shape of retirement planning, but it doesn’t have to close off the option of a life abroad. Thailand has quietly become a recognized destination for high-quality memory care – offering a level of one-on-one attention that’s often out of reach at home, at a fraction of the […]

Honoring Asalha Puja: A Craft Workshop and Candlelit Procession at Homerly

Asalha Puja is one of the most significant observances in the Buddhist calendar, marking the Buddha’s first sermon and the beginning of the annual rains retreat. At Homerly International Senior Living, residents commemorated the occasion through two complementary experiences: a creative workshop held in the days leading up to the holiday, and a candlelit procession […]

Legal & Financial Planning for Retiring in Thailand

The lifestyle side of retiring in Thailand tends to get all the attention – but the legal and financial groundwork underneath it matters just as much, and it’s far easier to set up correctly from the start than to untangle later. Wills, taxes, banking, and property rules in Thailand all work differently from what you’re […]

10 Early Signs of Dementia Every Family Should Know

A little forgetfulness is a normal part of getting older – misplacing keys, blanking on a name, losing the thread of a sentence. But dementia is something different. It’s a gradual decline in memory, thinking, and reasoning that eventually interferes with everyday life. Because the early signs can be subtle and easy to explain away, […]

We found out about Homerly after learning about the exceptional quality of care homes in Thailand. We were in need of a world-class facility that not only provided exceptional service and healthcare, but also allowed my father to enjoy retired life, and was easy to reach from Bangkok (if you're based internationally and need to fly in). Homerly was the perfect fit. Joanna, a key member of the management there never hesitated to make sure that my father was comfortable - an imperative for anyone who has dementia (and a great peace of mind for anyone caring for someone with dementia). We had a Whatsapp group that made it very easy to get in touch if we ever had any questions or concerns, no matter where we were in the world. Homerly and its staff were just as amazing. My father had access to on-site nurses, a direct link to Bangkok Hospital in Pattaya, dedicated carers, healthy and delicious meals, a physiotherapist and gym, and I loved that they had regular excursions to restaurants, malls and beaches around Pattaya. Homerly even organises spectacular trips to Chiang-Mai, Koh Kood, and Taiwan! Because it was a former resort, they have spacious rooms and serene private villas. We were lucky enough to stay in them a few times when we stayed overnight while visiting my father. My father is back home now, but I am very grateful that a place like Homerly exists.

Following a disaster in a UK care home, we moved Dad to Homerly. Dad has Alzheimers. Neither Dad nor ourselves have looked back and regretted this decision. Dad's quality of life is far superior to anything he got in the expensive care home in the UK. He has been out for lunches, goes shopping regularly and has been on a holiday to Koh Kood. He now has others around him that he can socialise with if he wants to. On top of that is the lovely environment that he is able to live in, a "resort" which really does not feel like a care home. Oh, it is also warm and the sun shines! The care staff are so kind and patient. A special mention to Joanna who made this huge move and change for Dad bearable and without whom I couldn't have coped.

I recently stayed at Homerly for 8 months to recover from knee surgery. The overall experience was excellent. Will, Joanna, Ian, Jeffrey and the rest of the staff was top notch. The facility is located just outside of Pattaya, in a gated setting that feels more like a resort than an assisted living facility. The architecture of the villas is Balinese, and the facility has very nicely landscaped grounds, which are maintained each day by a dedicated staff. Privacy for the residents is a key aspect of the care here, which is terrific, and I would say the place feels more like a resort than the typical "hospital setting" you see in the majority of assisted living facilities. It is serene and peaceful, and for me it was what I needed. There is a dedicated physical therapist, along with a 24-hour nursing staff. The attitude of the employees is welcoming and friendly. The staff is there to help the residents. Supportive in their thoughts, behavior and actions. A special thanks to May, Eric, Ant, R U, Tee and the other care givers who provided 24-hour care for the 1st few months I was at Homerly. This was a tough time for me, and your support during that time is much appreciated. My recovery involved a rather long and disciplined rehabilitation schedule with two physical therapists who specialized in rehabilitation for patients having knee surgery. This was arranged at my request, and it was critical for me. Both Dea and Gail were terrific, and I can't thank them enough for their support and expertise. Will arranged the physical therapy, and was very welcoming and accommodating, while I was at the facility. A special thanks goes out to him and to Joanna, who was also terrific. Joanna helped me with many items, from sending and receiving packages, to visa arrangements. Mainly, she solves problems for the residents, and it is nice to have a person you can rely on to take care of items for you. This is especially important and appreciated when you can't do the things you would normally do on your own. Joanna has a nice warm way about her, as well, and it was a pleasure to know both Will and Joanna. To be fair and open about my experience, it was not perfect. There are always areas to improve. During the 8 months I was at Homerly there were several changes to the menu, which was a bit frustrating. The majority of the time the food was great, but it would go up and down at times, depending on the chef. There were also some initial issues arranging visits to doctors, but this was resolved. While these types of things can be frustrating, in the total scheme of things, they are minor. The overall care provided is superb. But I did want to mention them. In terms of the price for the services provided, I thought the fees were quite reasonable. As we all know, nothing is cheap these days, but in comparison to the US and other Western countries the fees are considerably less, and with a high level of quality associated with the facility. I think it would be tough to find more "Bang for your Buck". I recommend Homerly to those that are seeking a safe and caring environment for their health needs.

Our Dad moved in at Homerly at short notice a few weeks ago. He had been in hospital for a week, had lost half his body weight and was bedridden. He was incredible unwell. We live in Australia and were so anxious about Dad’s rehab and recovery. We wanted to find somewhere that felt welcoming, where the staff are caring and where Dad would get the rehab/physical therapy and care that he needs. Joanna, Ian and William are absolute magic! They are caring, professional people, who went out of their way to help us before we had to leave to head back to Australia. He is getting amazing care, delicious meals and is recovering in a stunning, tranquil environment. I am forever grateful. Dad is making good progress with his rehab, with Joanna and the team keeping us regularly updated (via a WhatsApp family group chat she set up) with photos and information. If you’re looking for a truly caring care home, Homerly is the absolute best. I can sleep easy at night knowing that, despite me being thousands of miles away, Dad is being looked after by a wonderful crew of people.

Homerly Senior Living in Pattaya is truly a wonderful place. The staff are incredibly kind, caring, and attentive — you can really feel that they go above and beyond for the residents. Joanna, Will, and Ian deserve special mention for their warmth, professionalism, and genuine compassion. They made sure my dad felt comfortable and cared for, like part of a big family. The atmosphere is peaceful and welcoming, and it’s clear the residents are happy and well looked after. Couldn’t ask for a better place for senior living — thank you to the whole Homerly team! 🌿💛

I want to sincerely thank Homerly International for the outstanding care they provided for my wife. The staff were not only professional, but also compassionate and attentive, making a difficult time so much easier for both of us. The facility is clean, welcoming, and well-run, which gave me great peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. I’m truly grateful for everything the wonderful team at Homerly did — you made a big difference in her recovery. 🙏❤️

My brother has now been at Homerly for over four years. He is very well cared for, the staff are extremely attentive and there are plenty of activities arranged for most days, both on site but also day trips to shops / restaurants / landmarks in the local area. The apartments and villas are spacious and well maintained. The on site restaurant provides a good selection of meals for both residents and visitors alike.

Care and attention to residents’ needs are the cornerstones that make Homerly a safe, enjoyable, beautiful care resort for the elderly. As the resort grows and more residents join in the future, the Homerly team can differentiate daily activities to meet the needs and interests of the increasingly diverse group of residents. With management’s customer focused approach and attentive, caring staff, Homerly can continue to improve and establish new industry best practice standards for elderly care in Thailand. At the same time, Homerly’s long-term development and sustainability are best served by ensuring its reputation for prioritising the provision of high-quality care for the elderly over short-term gains remains its core value and unique selling point in the in the market. In short, Homerly has established itself in the market as a provider of quality care and services for residents. Well done to everyone in the Homerly Team. Keep up the good work!
