With your car rentals in Hat Yai, you can drive to Chang Puak Elephant Camp Hat Yai, Centara Hotel Hat Yai, Khlong Hae Floating Market, and Red Planet Hat Yai.
  • Hat Yai Airport (HDY) and Trang Airport (TST) serve flights to Hat Yai. They are about 10 miles and 98 miles from the city center.

  • Roads in Hat Yai are narrow, and finding one-way streets is not uncommon. Nonetheless, driving in the city should be manageable despite many challenges.

Terrible customer service. Reluctant to process reservation. Bad communication. Car was not as promised. Attempted several times to upcharge. Disparate treatment of foreigners to Thais—discriminatory behavior. Racist. I will never rent with this company again.
