In your opinion, what is the best option to extend my 60-day visa on arrival for another 60 days?
Answer summary
The best way to extend a 60-day visa on arrival in Thailand is to leave the country and re-enter, as there is no possibility of a straightforward 60-day extension. Most commenters agree that you can get a new visa stamp by briefly visiting a neighboring country like Malaysia, with suggestions ranging from spending a couple of nights to a minimum of three, although opinions on minimum stay vary. Some also mention that it’s advisable not to apply for a 30-day extension, which is limited and could raise red flags with immigration.

I guess you mean a visa exempt entry. There is no option to extend that for 60 days, only 30 days then you must leave. If you have immediate Thai family you can get a 60 days "visit Thai family" extension
Philippe Dupront 2 nights is sufficient. I have already done it. We took a bus from Hua Hin to Krabi so we could visit Kho Phi Phi, then got round trip flights to KL for $83 Cdn. All baggage included. Hotel in the center of KL $49 Cndn total for 2 nights.
