    A warm atmosphere in a relaxed family run beach resort. Our new favourite place.

    We travelled here with our two young children and grandparents. We loved the tranquil atmosphere of this place and the beauty of the bay. Our two children enjoyed the freedom they had running between the room, the restaurant and the beach. The food was of high quality and the restaurant has such a great view. Most of all we really appreciated Simon’s help and kindness with many matters. The personalised service really made a relaxing holiday for us. Thank you so much. This is where we will return when we are next on Koh Chang.

    We stayed 11 days in Amber Sands and had a wonderful time. If you look for staying at a quiet place to stay in a beautiful environment surrounded by friendly people and coddled with delicious food it is the place to be. Simon, Ning and all the team are super friendly and helpful. Simon drove us to the other side of the Island when a pick-up for diving did not arrive in time in the morning and Ning helped with soothing balms after I had a scooter accident. The food in their restaurant is wonderful. Start the day with a rice soup, fruits or a Thai omelet if you dare to step away from western or British breakfast, it is the best start into the day. And later on, do not miss the wonderful Morning Glory or Fried Egg or Papaya Salad and the mouth watering curries and end the day with a great cocktail like the Gin basil smash. Simon was also so friendly to give us the sails for the catamaran so we could sail it in the ocean just down the beach. Thanks you for everything, Amber Sand team, we would love to come back!

    We loved the property and wanted to stay somewhere to just relax and this property far exceeded my expectations If you want to party or walk into town then I would suggest somewhere on the west side of the island. If you want to relax in a beautiful spot this is your place

    Absolutely perfect for anyone who wants to relax in paradise Beautiful location, really nice rooms, really great price, amazing onsite massage Even dropped us off at the ferry at 6am for free Would definitely stay again Really friendly owners

    The beach was a little bit dirty so we weren't tempted to swim, though we saw other guests enjoying a swim. The location was quite remote but we hired a scooter so this wasn't a problem for us.

    We loved everything about our stay at this lovely little resort. The bungalows are very comfortable with a lovely view out to the beautiful well-maintained garden, up to the lovely pool area and out to sea. The food in the restaurant was delicious and the staff went out of their way to help us with anything we needed. We loved it so much that we extended our stay, and hope to return in the future.

    Not a lot - The beach has its appeal but is not as nice as others on the island. That said, there are far fewer people to share it with. They also offered stand up paddle boards and kayaks for use on the often beautifully flat waters. Sunrises were magical

    The place including the grounds, pool and rooms are kept immaculately. The room we were in felt so open and bright. The food was excellent. The best thing though was the incredible hospitality of the staff and owners. We really felt like we were welcome and looked after there. When we first arrived we were immediately disappointed to drive beyond all the hustling built up centres on Koh Chang but by the end of our start we would choose Amber sands again in a heart beat.

    This place was great! Simon and his family were so kind and helpful, the room was great and the bed was super comfy. It was quiet and peaceful with a lovely atmosphere for families. It's on the other side of the island to most shops, restaurants etc, but we really appreciated the courtesy ride to white sands. Ning's cooking is so good, we didn't want to eat anywhere else anyway!

    This place is wonderful. First of all, the staff is so friendly and helpful. It made our stay extra special. The resort has all the facilities you need; a pool, kayaks, restaurant, live music, we loved it. The garden is also worth mentioning, it’s maintained on a daily basis and it looks stunning. The resort is small-scale which was a big plus for us, it’s all nice and quiet. A big recommendation for people who just want to enjoy the quieter side of Koh Chang!

    This side of the island is more exposed to scrap from the sea. More effort is required to keep the beach clean.

    The location is on the best side of the island, less crowded. Little beach with fantastic amber sand. Family owned, you feel at home, the owner does whatever to make you feel comfortable. Facilities are available for free. A real feel good place. With a bike you get around from here to the best places to visit. Absolutely recommended.

    Friendly, peaceful relaxed resort with a lovely beach, swimming pool. The service and food are fabulous. It is in the quieter part of the island which suited us perfectly. There are other bars and restaurants along the beach so it is possible to walk elsewhere if you fancy a change of scenery.

    The water was not so perfect, totally not clear, dark and looks like "dirty". But the resort also has small swimming pool.

    Perfect place if you want to chill out, it's very calm and quite. I really like the resort, the bungalows are big, clean and good equipped. So comfortable! The owner is very nice and helpful. Restaurant has very good food and coffee. The beach has really amber sand, for us that was ok.

    Everything was great for us.

    Quiet and relaxing. The room is just as the pictures, bed comfy, food exceptional. The beach is not long but walkable and when the sea is not inviting, there is a pool. Simon was a super host, he gave us a ride into town a couple of times but mostly we stayed in relaxing and eating at the restaurant. Definitively recommended if you prefer the quiet life.

    Simon and Ning are amongst the most genuinely hospitable people we’ve stayed with. Always trying to help make the stay a little more enjoyable, with trip suggestions and even dropping us off for free on the west coast. Ning’s cooking was exceptional. Simon’s knowledge and keenness to please unsurpassable. Thanks
