if your plan is to make money on rentals, stay away from krabi, chang, mak. these are mostly Thai vacation spots. they don't want to pay much and will try to screw you.
in samui, phuket, even pattaya, you can get a condo rented up all year long and there are farang owned management companies to clean and handle problems.
if you're just going to live in it, well, go stay in each place for a month. its cheap. we thought about living on Koh Chang for awhile. went down about 5 times. it got boring quick.
