Amber Sands Beach Resort

The perfect place to relax and enjoy sea, beach and wonderful thai food. Its located on the east-coast of koh chang, which is the calm side and you can't really reach some other places except the serenity resort and a restaurant by foot. Which is absolutely no problem as the food in the resort is great and we did enjoy every single dish we ordered. The red sand beach is nice and well maintained (being raked every morning), you got to walk a bit into the sea to swim (especially at low tide), and should search for the best "lane" to get in inbetween of some stones, but this is not a problem even for children (they should wear bathingshoes anyways). Sunbeds are available on the beach as well as at the pool. The pool isnt huge but easily big enough the cool down and sufficientfor the only 9 (!!) rooms of the resort; it also offers a separated shallow childrens pool. Breakfast is a'la carte, normal thai pricing (like the full menu) and very delicious and you can order it the whole day. The owners (Simon from UK and his thai wife and family) and staff are extraordinary friendly, especially our 3yrs old son did enjoy their hospitality a lot (and i think they did have fun with him too ;) The room is offering all you need: enough room, good bed, fridge, bathroom w/ shower, A/C and it's very clean. All in all it was a great place to relax and enjoy thailand with the family at it's best!

The hotel is run by a really nice family and they make you feel welcome no matter the time of day. They will also help to book different tours to your taste while on the island. The hotel is away from the hustle and bustle of white sand beach but still close enough to get a taxi or drive there for the evenings. The hotel is very private and served nice dinner with some great priced wine! We would recommend to people looking to have a quieter romantic trip rather than those looking to party.

The resort's on the quieter side of Koh Chang, which is exactly what we were looking for. There are three small resorts spread along the beach, and it never feels busy. The bungalows face towards the sea and are set in a semicircle around the pool. Our bungalow was comfortable, spacious and spotlessly clean with both air con and a fan. The bed was king size and comfy. There's a swimming pool, and free-to-use kayaks and some beach toys for the kids. The restaurant's good - both properly tasty Thai food and some good western options. And some cracking cocktails! Finally, Simon and the staff were welcoming and very helpful, and made us feel right at home We had a great time, and would happily go back

Perfect stance on the beach. Nice staff, feeling like family. Absolutely recommended for everyone. Good cooking, good pool... cannot ask for more.
