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.  

Family villa at Chivapuri Beach Resort

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.

😀 - When I arrived the power was out as there was a storm the night before but the staff were warm and welcoming I had a large room with a plush bed and nice linen wifi was a bit spotty in the 4 days I was there , food was decent and views gorgeous. 😞 - The wifi service could be improved.

Disappointing. 😀 - Spacious but empty rooms. 😞 - The resort looks as if years ago, it was very nice but they stopped maintenance decades ago. What may once have been a vibrant vacation destination now suffers from a clear sense of faded glory. In our family room we had two twin beds, only one with a mosquito net (with holes in it). Unfortunately, the AC was not able to cool the room a comfortable temperature. Breakfast was mediocre, the beach was littered with debris, plastic toothbrushes, lighters and other rubbish from sea. We even stepped in fuel oil on the beach (with bare feathers). This was the most expensive resort from our Thailand trip so expectations were high, however, the hotel was the worst. I would not recommend coming here.

A lovely relaxing place away from the noise 😀 - Excellent for a quiet relaxing getaway. Several restaurants on the same beach, lovely pool, lovely staff. The room was beautiful. Super high ceiling, super clean and comfortable.

A good family resort on a secluded location 😀 - Lovely hotel , beautiful scenery , friendly and helpful staff. A bit secluded location as Koh Chang is a very big island. If you’re looking for a quiet place for a family stay it is a good place. The only con is a not very powerful AC that doesn’t really cool the big room enough.
