Kai Bae Beach Resort
Compare prices
Kai Bae Beach Resort sits along one of Koh Chang's quieter stretches of coastline, Kai Bae Beach, offering travellers a comfortable base away from the busier crowds found further north at White Sand Beach. The resort's location suits those looking to combine easy beach access with a more relaxed, unhurried pace that Koh Chang's southern shores are known for. With a strong guest rating reflecting consistent satisfaction, it appeals to couples, solo travellers, and families seeking a reliable island retreat. Guests can expect comfortable accommodation with direct proximity to the beach, allowing for easy access to swimming, kayaking, and the calm waters typical of this part of the Gulf of Thailand. The surrounding Kai Bae area also offers a modest selection of local restaurants, bars, and dive operators within easy reach, making it a convenient choice for those who want island amenities without the noise of a larger resort hub. For practical planning, Koh Chang is best visited between November and April when the dry season brings clear skies and calmer seas. The island is accessible by ferry from the mainland pier at Tha Dan Kao, near Trat, which is reachable by bus or domestic flight from Bangkok. Travellers are encouraged to book directly through the resort's official booking page to secure current availability and potentially better rates than third-party platforms.
