Blue Lagoon
Low-priced accommodation in a stunning setting

What we say: 
In a gorgeous, breezy setting, Blue Lagoon has two types of bungalow accommodation, all with private bathroom. The cheapest are small, ordinary wooden huts with one extraordinary feature: doors leading out to the private balcony over the lagoon concertina entirely away to extend the size of the room and open it up to the stunning views. Concrete bungalows, large in size with balconies to match, sit back in the midst of a rubber tree plantation. These are comfortable, but missing the atmosphere and lagoon-side location of the cheaper huts. The guesthouse has a restaurant with a great menu and offering open-air cooking classes by the lagoon for 700B per person. The cooking classes here receive rave reviews and the food here is decent also; if a little watered down for western tastes. The beach isn't great as it's an estuary, but a walk 200m either way results in white sands and gin blue water. Blue Lagoon is found down a picturesque path through a rubber plantation just beyond the entrance to Chang Chuttimun Elephant camp; keep an eye out for the sign besides a fishing shop.

A place to chill
A great find on Ko Chang. We initially planned on staying in the Lonely Beach area, but stumbled upon Khlong Prao beach and this resort instead. First off, the resort sits on a beautiful estuary, and therefore isn't a beach. Oh noes! Alarm bells may start ringing, but chill out people. You are closer to the beach than most resorts on the island. All you have to do is walk down a little path leading to the beach (half monopolised by Tropicana resort) and ta-da, you are on a fab stretch of Khlong Prao beach. We stayed in an ordinary, basic fan bungalow (400 bht, low season). After staying on Ko Wai, with no electricity or hot water -- these places seemed luxurious. Western toilets, clean, sealed, and with hot water showers -- you don't need much else when crashing on the beach. The interiors were nicely decorated, and the views of the estuary, palm trees and the sea made for stunning sunsets. The restaurant served decent food, but closed early (maybe because it was low season).

Would like to go back there...
We stayed here one night in a hut right on the Khlong. What a view! Laying in the hammock at 7.30 in the morning, looking at the mountains at one side, the sea on the other, it was one of the better views we had in four weeks. The hut is very basic, but sufficient for our needs. We had a very good dinner and a nice breakfast in one of the secluded almost private balconies over the khlong. There is a pretty garden, maintained all day. The beach is just a minute walk away. We wanted to stay longer but it was all reserved because of a wedding. Too bad, but if we are ever there again we definitely go back there.

Didn't Want to Leave
Within 2 days this place felt like home. The bungalow was light, airy and tastefully decorated but it was the location and wonderful staff that really stood out. Great restaurant and yes, as has been mentioned, the cooking school is quality and value for money. As our bungalow was set in the trees and not along the water I was concerned about proximity to the beach but it was a 50m walk along a charming boardwalk which is lit up beautifully at night.

Island Hut
Simple wooden hut with an open air bathroom and a cool balcony facing a lagoon behind a beach.It was kind of like a 'mini' Thai style house, very natural and open.Also the green mosquito netting over the bed added to the exotic touch.We arrived during 'Songkran' Thai water festival so prices were higher than usual, 700 baht per night but around 350 at other times. The atmosphere here is very relax and friendly.Great Thai food at the restaurant and not to forget the cold beers. Khlong Prao beach is pretty but extreamly rocky at low tide,so it wasn't so good for swimming.However you can book a boat tour that takes you to three Islands for 450 baht per person,lunch included.Which is good value

Very relaxing place
This place was marvellous. The people are friendly and helpful, the food is great, the bungalows are simple but adequate. We loved the semi-outdoor bathroom. The shower water is only cold but the days were so hot it didn't worry us. We went to the on site cooking school and highly recommend it. Their presentation is very slick. The food in the restaurant can be a bit slow in arriving at the table but when you hear them pounding the pestle and mortar you know they are making it from scratch and when it comes, it's definitely worth the wait. The nearby beach isn't so flash for swimming but we were very happy to chill out and enjoy the serene surroundings.

Paradise at a discount price
A gem of a resort/guesthouse on Koh Chang. The lagoon front bungalows are built on stilts over a lagoon with big open decking looking out to the sea. Bungalows we stayed in were basic but really clean and a really well thought out design make these one of most orginal places we have stayed in. This coupled with a great food and extra friendly staff make this one of our favourite places in Thailand.
