Southern Chaweng

At this end of Chaweng Beach, the water gets a bit rougher and the sand is far grainier -- Australians will feel right at home. The range of hotels and guesthouses are mixed, ranging from a stack of cookie cutter hotels aimed squarely at mid-range, fly-in tourists, to a few lovely top-range choices. For budget travellers, this area of the beach is quite limited, as the rustic stuff is very rustic indeed.

Central Chaweng

This is where all the action is. Central Chaweng Beach is often very crowded, as the sand is at its finest and the waters most sparkling in this area. A wide range of guesthouses and hotels are offered, from the budget and mid-range through to top-end, break-your-budget digs. Note that the vast majority of hotels here are affected by noise from the clubs, bars and regular beach parties. Light sleepers will definitely need earplugs, particularly at the cheaper off-the-beach spots.

Northern Chaweng

Some of Chaweng's top hotels are dotted from the northern tip of the beach down to around O.P.

Chaweng Noi

Chaweng Noi (little Chaweng) is a small beach just to the south of Chaweng proper. Home primarily to mid-range and above resorts, it's still worth visiting on a day trip, particularly if you're staying on nearby Chaweng, as the beach is mostly uncrowded and shaded and there is good swimming. The road is a long way back from the beach, so there's little traffic noise. As the resorts take up all the property, however, the only eating choices are at hotels.
