Best resort on Koh Chang outside Christmas period”

Absolutely best part of White sand beach. The hotel is very well positioned at the very end of the beach. More central parts of the beach are rather crowded. Restaurant is right on the sea. Breakfast was quite good; the only negative comment is that the warm food was not really warm. That is a pity, because the curry was really good. Pancakes and waffles are made from the same dough. Juices were not so good, but fantastic fresh watermelon and pineapples. Sometimes we eat lunch there and the food was good, nothing special but eatable. Prices are almost the same everywhere. The quality of bungalows differs quite a lot. First night we had quite bad room - AC could only be either off or on (with temperature 19 degrees). Warm water in the shower did not work. Tea-cooker was heavily leaking. The entry door was not very well fit and shakes enormously during the windy night, keeping me away the whole night. The extremely hard matrass made it much worse. My husband got a back pain after that. Second bungalow was perfect - everything was in working order and the twin beds had another matrass - much softer, so the sleeping comfort was good. The house had a very good location with a couple of palms in front, which were protecting from the sun and allowed us to relax on the balcony and at the same have a nice sea view. Everything was perfect except other guests’ very disturbing behavior. A Swedish family staying in the garden bungalow not far from our house, made friends with two other Swedish families living in other parts of the hotel and this huge company of adults and teenagers have chosen the part of the beach right in front of our bungalow. Because of their screaming, running force and back, smoking and drinking right in front our porch, we could not relax in our hammock or on the balcony until after sun set. Therefore, we decided not to go to this hotel during Christmas and New Year holidays as 90 % of the hotel was occupied by big Swedish companies.

Location and quiet”

The location is great. We rented a car for the trip from Bangkok to Koh Chang, so had transport around the island. If you need to walk you should investigate something closer to White Sands proper, or be willing to truly relax and veg at this hotel. We did a long weekend trip, with time for a day of diving, a day at the waterfall, dinner out at the steakhouse and italian joints, as well as amazing Thai at a little spot further away. The hotel itself was comfortable, your basic A/C bungalow with a roomy all-in-one shower/toilet, and enough room around the queen bed for our clutter. Rooms were cleaned daily, despite notice to the contrary, which was confusing but welcome. The beach was lovely to watch and the water warm to swim in, though keep an eye out for the red flag on riptides!

Excellecnt for chilling with friends or as couple”

I went with my friends in group of 10 on national holidays. The pier was packed! We waited 6 hours to come across Koh chang on a ferry. This White Sand Beach Resort is the first hotel on White Sand Beach. We checked in at 9.30pm and staffs were friendly and welcoming. We booked Beach front and Beach view rooms, they are amazing! The beach is right up front, the sky was breathtakingly beautiful! Some flying fish were jumping at sight. The beach is not steep which is suitable for family with children. Although there were so many people but it was still quiet and calm. However, the worst thing about this hotel is the location as well as it's the best thing. As I drive up hill from the pier, the path to hotel just go 240 degree steep down to the beach! I couldn't see more than 5 meters ahead. It was horrifying. When I drove my Nissan Almera 1.2 engine up, it was too weak and shut off. we had to walked up. Anyways, I will still going back just to chill around in the hotel.

Lovely last minute find”

Finding a hotel for new years eve that wasn't extortionate in white sand was hard, came across this finally which hasn't got the best reviews. Getting dropped off by the ferry taxi at the top of the steep hill we thought o no this is miles away from main area, but actually only 5/10 mind still along the beautiful beach. I had booked a garden view hut which turned out to have a lovely beach view aswell and walk way straight onto the beach. The hut itself was ok comfy bed and bathroom had a few ants but nothing awful. The balcony bit looked over onto the beach. The beach is stunning and one of the best bits of white sand beach, the hotel has chairs for the beach for free ( they also float in the sea) breakfast was buffet style with fresh eggs omlettes and waffles. Definitely would recommend staying, the only thing missing is a pool, but right on the beach you can survive without one.

Everything we wanted, peaceful, simple, beautiful ”

We loved it here and stayed on an extra week. Beautiful unspoilt beach, simple private and well thought out accommodation which maximised the privacy of each hut. We had a garden view but we could actually see quite a lot of beach and the sea was about 15 meters from our door. The beach itself in that part of White Sand Beach is in great condition and very quiet, and gets more lively (and noisy and a little dirtier) on resorts further south on this part of the island. The breakfast was good for this price point and the staff are all very helpful and friendly with a pretty good standard of English (better than everywhere else we stayed in Thailand). The daytime restaurant food wasn't amazing, ok but there are a number of better restaurants nearby along the beach as well as amazing street food in the town. We'll definitely go back to the resort and would recommend it highly.

Excellent”

After staying in many hotels around all of Koh Chang island, this hotel offers so much on so many levels. It feels away from the busy bars, shops, food stalls and beaches of White Sands town, but it's a lovely walk up the beach into town . Lovely staff and resort, I would say is a touch of Thai paradise.

Great place to relax”

I visited this place 29th August 2013. We drove down from the Ko chang Jetty to this resort. Traveling to this island is quite exciting by the minni bus. Reaching white sand beach resort takes probably 30-40mins by car after you get down at the Ko chang jetty. The drive to this resort is very scenic and pleasurable, also in between theres a viewpoint centre, where you can get down and take pictures. As you reach the resort, you will see the reception area which is also a great place to have breakfast, lunch or dinner. Do not miss the fire show in the evening at this restaurant specially for all its guests. There are several types of villas/cottages you can rent up as per your stay, we took the double room ones. The cottages are nice, clean and comfortable to stay, nothing lavish or luxurious, but very comfortable and right on the beach. The best part about this resort is that it has a great beach to itself, with a nice restaurant which serves good food. The staff is nice and polite, and very helpful. Also, in case you want to explore more, just take a walk further down the beach as you will keep passing german, English and thai pubs, which serve food, wine and music for the ears. White sand beach resort is best for a couple or a family stay with their location, accessibility and facilities available in and around this place. theres also a market on the road behind this resort which goes all the way down the beach, but be advised, make sure you don't go alone. often you might hear the sound of a "Gecko" coming from the shafts of your room, don't worry they are harmless and quite common in such areas. Do try and photograph one at night, as they look quite stunning. ;p There are also two masseurs who sit under a big tree, and offer awesome massage, so try it. All in all, great value for money, for a budgeted relaxed, and enjoyable stay. cheers!

Right on the beach”

Great location on the quieter end of White Sand Beach. The beach was cleaned each morning and the sand and sea was brilliant. Short walk to the busier beach area and town. Beach huts are getting a little old but were very clean, maintained each day by friendly staff. It was wonderful to look out or just step out directly beside the sea. Restaurant for refreshments, meals and breakfast were good, wide choice of food and drink all day. Staff were friendly but on occasion, their attention was focused on their mobile phones. Overall, we had a pleasant and relaxing time and would return again.

Very Good Value, Best Beach on the Island at your doorstep”

If you're staying on White Sand Beach and are value conscious then the White Sand Beach Resort is a great option. You're on probably the best strip of the best beach on the island. The water was 30 meters from my bungalow, serene beach scene. The only bad things are 1. you must walk about 10 minutes up the beach to get access to rural road (restaurants, bars, 7/11) 2. The bungalows are adequate but keep in mind they are not air tight, expect to have a mosquito or 2 flying around your room, a little repellent and I was fine. The ensuite shower/ bathroom was adequate and the A/C ran cold, no issues there. The hotel is right next to one of the most expensive on the island, KC Resort....can't beat the beach at this location, beautiful.....I will stay again.....

Peaceful and relaxing”

I like this place. It's right at the far north end of White Sand Beach and can be a little bit hard to get to. You usually get dropped off at the 7-11 on the main road and it's a 20 minute walk along the beach from there, which is a bit far if you have much to carry. You can call the hotel and they will pick you up. It's well worth the effort of getting here though, as it's quiet and peaceful, and the grounds are very pleasant. Having stayed in some of the older, smaller bungalows before, I now pay the extra for a deluxe sea view bungalow. It's well worth it, although it's really about time they had wifi in these more expensive rooms. Wifi is only available in the restaurant, but it's free and works well. Breakfast is a buffet, with loads of choice, great quality, and a very pleasant deck to sit out on overlooking the beach. I had a minor maintenance issue in the room, mentioned it on the way to breakfast, and the problem was fixed by the time I got back, so no problems with service. The staff seem happy, friendly, and are helpful. I recommend this place, with the slight proviso that I really wish wifi was available in the rooms.

Excellent!!!”

Beautiful,quaint little cottages on the beachfront with great views! My cottage was beautiful and clean and everything worked perfectly. I was worried that this beach/area might be noisy but this resort is secluded and like a little hidden gem so it was really peaceful. What I loved most was the fact that I was right on the beach front and could sit and watch the sunset from my porch. Even the views from the restaurant was so beautiful & breakfast was good. I’ll definitely return to this resort and Koh Chang again.

Wonderful Memory”

It was great time since we reached there and asked for changing the type of cottage from garden view to beach front. Lots of impression of natural surroundings,good view as a few steps reach to the beach. Convenience offered massaging nearby the cottage. We enjoyed riding a bike to Bang Bao and dropped many places to buy something. Most convenient to stay just one demerit of the water from a shower which was very less and slow. However, we prefer and love White Sand Beach Resort and hope to be back again.

Superb beach is almost all yours”

The White Sand Beach is located in the very north of the White Beach. It is even far away from the second most northern hotel. Although it may be not very practical with its remote location (15 min walk on the beach from the last bit of road accessed by truck taxi), it has many of its own attractions. The beach is superb. Very clean and peaceful, only a few of hotel guests are on the beach or in the water. It's almost all for you. Water is super clean and nice. There are masseuses available and two local restaurants around. If you're looking for a quiet and peaceful time on a cozy beach, it should be the one.

Excellent!”

It's rather simple and rustic, but what more do you need at such a nice location? Within this type of accommodation, it's definitively the nicest place on White sand beach! It's at the very quiet top end of the beach and has a nice restaurant with absolutely reasonable (and competitive) prices. We really loved it

A great resort on a lovely beach. ”

This is a beautiful bungalow on the beach, you walk out of your bungalow on to s white sand beach into blue clear water. A wonderful experience and good facilities all round, nice staff and a very good menu at a good price, excellent, will stay here again.

very nice beach!!”

we, altogether 5 adults& 4 children, spent 2 nights on the family suites(2 suites) located right on he beach. the suite facilities was ok, the room cleanliness was acceptable. However, the location of the hotel, which situated right on the white sand beach, makes all those mentioned issues gone away!!. you will enjoy your view of the nice beach and calm blue sea... our dinner at the hotel restaurant with the fire show was fantastic. Buffet breakfast with the variety of foods was also nice. we will surely come back to this hotel again next time.

Excellent beach bungalo”

We spent excellent 4 nights in our bungalo at White Sand Beach Resort. We took beach front bungalo and the see was ten steps away from our door. Resort is located at the northen end of White Sand Beach and you have to walk about 15 miutes to the center of White Sand Beach, where all restorans are.

Great value for money beach huts ”

Our stay at the White Sand Beach Resort was very relaxing. The beach hut was good value for money - it even had air con. The location was excellent. The staff were helpful and friendly. The buffet breakfast was included in the price of the hutand there was plenty of choice.

Cosy beach huts great view good value for money but needs upgrades”

The bungalows placed right on the beach was my main attraction and sitting out on the front porch watching the waves crash on beach at night a good pastime. Sand is quite nice and beach is largest in Koh Chang. A very steep 45 degree hill 600m long to get to the resort is a challenge in itself and not for the faint hearted if you’re riding a motorbike you work your brakes and hands hard coming downhill and going full throttle to get back up to the main road. The staff are friendly but beware of ordering meals there as they take a long time to bring out your meal! The included free breakfast is terrible don’t even bother go out to town if you want a decent breakfast. The resort over all is not bad but needs improvement and upgrading to a lot of inconsistent furniture and equipment. ie: some rooms have better showers than others, better beds than others etc. this resort is really just good for the beach view but that’s about it

Very relaxing”

The place is located on an amazing beach, one of the best I've been to. The locals will tell you White Sand Beach is overdeveloped but it's not by European standards, it looks amazing and all the resorts on the beach are quaint and covered in vegetation. The hills are right behind the resort. We had a hut right on the sand. Most of the customers were Thai, I think because it was a bank holiday. The staff were nice enough.
