The Mangrove
Natural and simple bungalows
What we say: 
Certainly one of the nicest places in the area, The Mangrove has very basic stilted wooden huts, but designed with elegance and an eye for detail, and situated on a breezy slope covered in tropical jungle. There is plenty of room inside, and the few pieces of furniture are co-ordinated to the house. All very natural looking, some larger huts have an upper level that is open yet covered to catch the views and the breeze. Down by the waterfront there's a claming deck with gorgeous views and a restaurant run by three friendly Thai ladies. From here you can reach a tiny patch of sand although it's not quite a beach. It's one of those places which grow on you if you can handle nature, but if you like mod cons look elsewhere. They generally close down for the majority of the low season.

Great location
I confirm what gringeaux said on the previous post.Once you have tried Mangrove you get addicted to the place . Who said that koh chang was now over developped ?? That' s not at all the feeling you get at Mangrove . Excellent food . Service little slow ( cha cha ) but that 's Thailand A little paradise away from the crowd and the techno music from Lonely Beach !!

Highly recommended
I wasn't initially impressed with the Mangrove when we arrived. For 1200 baht (higher than what's listed here), I expected a bit more than the fan rooms. But this place grew on me bit by bit, and by the time we left, it had become a favorite. The rooms are each very simply and stylishly decorated, the bed was comfortable, and the bathroom was spacious and extremely clean. The Mangrove is situated on a stretch of Bailan Bay with actual an actual sand beach, fringed with palm trees. The food was absolutely delicious and the restaurant was romantic and charming, overlooking the bay. Can't say enough good things about this place. But, if you don't like dogs, you might not be impressed. 2 or 3 of the dogs seem to have the rule of the roost, and they demand a lot of attention. If you throw the toy once, you'll be committed for a half-hour.
