With only 30 rooms, located in spacious houses over-looking the gardens, guests are guaranteed personal attention by the well trained staff. Decor is the type of chunky dark wooden furniture, silk hangings and wooden floors favoured by many ‘natural feel’ 4 star resorts in Thailand.
The beach has several restaurants and bars on it and is popular with daytrippers coming from other areas of Koh Chang to chill and enjoy the views. However, it quietens down at night and guests will enjoy hanging out at the laid back beach bars. Chivapuri Beach Resort has their own laid back beach bar ‘Cocochacha’ ,with daily Happy Hour specials and light meals.
In the past few years there’s been quite a lot of development on the beach and in the area behind it. So you’ll now find quite a few small shops and minimarts. So there’s no longer a need to go to Bangbao village, 30 minutes walk away to buy supplies.
If you do want to venture out then getting to the other main beaches is a bit of a hassle and you have the steep winding road to navigate from Bangbao to Kai Bae. Bear that in mind if you plan on renting a scooter to get around.
Disappointed 😀 - The staff was very nice and friendly. I saw a nice snake. 😞 - The accommodation was very outdated and many things were damaged such as air conditioning, coffee machines, furniture etc. There is no real difference between the normal bungalows and the beachfront bungalows except for the very overpriced price. The breakfast was always the same, and the quality was very poor. I expected a lot more for the price. I am very disappointed.

Great place and lovely views all around of the other local islands 😀 - Lovely pool and a cracking beach, close to the Koh Mak ferry and equally close to the "Ghost Ship" site just up the road and well worth the visit (dont listen to people saying you cant get in) for a mere 100 baht. Staff here love to serve and everything seems to be available at a simple request. Food was top notch and at a reasonable price. 😞 - Nothing we didnt like, but then again we like to go with the flow.

The perfect place for a relaxed stay with your kids 😀 - 1. The Staff!!! - We were looked after so well by the staff especially Supu, Aki, Tam and Khetta. Our kids really miss them and they went out of their way to look after us. Lovely people and really made the trip so enjoyable for us due to their friendliness and kindness. 2. The Location - being at the end of the road means it's very quiet and relaxed. If you like being away from it all and don't mind not being near any shops this is the place for you (some nice little bars and restaurants are within easy walking distance) 3. The Layout of the hotel/resort means you can feel very private and quiet in your room but meet other guests at the restaurant/bar and pool which is a good balance. The pool is perfect balance of being fun for kids and adults and you can sit on the loungers and watch one kid in the pool and one of the beach which is perfect for parents' reading time. 😞 - It wasn't a problem for us at all but just to help others get a true picture of the place and work out if it's for them... The resort building itself was very clean and comfortable but it is showing some signs of age and could maybe do with some renovation work but personally we'd rather take this for the price and friendless of the staff and other guests (like for like chilled families like us) over some higher priced 'luxury/perfect' place. We found after a few days we did need to get out and about a bit and used scooter, taxi, sea kayak and rental Jeep to do so as with kids it's a bit of a trek to the 7/11 so bear this in mind. Again we felt the quietness of the place more than made up for the inconvenience. Also maybe due to our visit being after the main Christmas/New Year season they tended to close the bar/restaurant around 22:00 which actually was totally fine for us and they're were bars open later nearby off the main beach. We actually liked how everything on the beach closed down and allowed for a quiet starry walk at night.

The rooms are very well contained and clean. Also the swimmingpool is clean and very nice. The staff is super friendly and helpfully, especially mister Noi! Also it is very family friendly. A place for us to come back.
