We're thinking of taking a family trip to Thailand in the summer while dh and boys are still in yeshiva, so it'll just be me and my 3 teenage girls (15, 17 and 19). Has anyone been who can tell me what there is to do and where is the best place to stay?
Has anyone been somewhere else in the middle east which is worth going to?
We can take our own food so does not need to be near kosher food (and no need for minyan).
Any and all advice appreciated!

Honestly it’s not a place I would take teens to, of any gender…
But if you do make sure to focus on the nature and avoid the populated areas.
Maldives or the Philippines may be better but I wasn’t there so I wouldn’t know.

Chiang mai for jungle and waterfall areas, more adventurous
Bangkok for the city life
Koh samui or Phuket for for beaches and water

I was there around 10 years ago

Maldives has banned Israelis and those with Israeli passports. While you can technically go with an American passport, I would think good and hard before going to such an antisemitic place or giving them any of my money.
