Koh Mak Cococape Resort

4.3(823 reviews)

Koh Mak Cococape Resort sits directly on the beach of Koh Mak, a quieter island in Trat province that attracts travellers seeking a more relaxed alternative to the busier shores of nearby Koh Chang. The resort offers a range of accommodation styles, from traditional thatched huts to airy rooms and suites, catering to different budgets and preferences while maintaining a consistent beachfront setting. Guests can expect a laid-back tropical atmosphere with direct beach access, an outdoor pool, and two bars on site. The combination of casual open-air architecture and natural surroundings makes it well suited to those looking to unwind rather than seek out nightlife or dense tourist infrastructure. The resort's setting on Koh Mak means the pace is generally slower and the beaches less crowded than on more developed islands in the Gulf of Thailand. Good to know: Koh Mak is accessible by ferry from the mainland piers near Trat, and journey times can vary depending on the season and ferry operator. The island has limited ATM access, so travellers are advised to carry sufficient cash before arriving. The dry season, roughly November through April, offers the most reliable weather for beach stays, while services across the island may be reduced during the low season months.
