All rooms are air-conditioned and come with flat-screen TVs and large en-suite bathrooms. Free, high-speed WiFi is also available throughout the property.
By the water, is the Yacht Club Riverview restaurant where breakfast, lunch and dinner are served. There’s also a daily happy hour from 4 – 6pm. Sit yourself down in a comfy chair or chill on the beanbags and enjoy the natural surroundings. Alternatively, there is also the Flybridge pool bar. This is by the rooftop pool and is a great spot to sunbathe A fully equipped gym is available for all hotel guests as well as a Kids Club.
Siam Royal Bay have a free shuttle bus for residents which stops at the resort. Guests can use it to go down to the beach or to different areas of the development, for example to the Shambala beach bar and pool or the main beachfront pool at the northern end of the development.
Or to the disc golf course, which is a fun way to spend the day for adults and older kids. Or to the local village where guests can shop for basics and go to the 7-eleven.
Room rates are usually competitive at Marina Sands Resort, as it isn’t by the beach. And it’s a safe choice, away from crowds. Very modern, nicely designed, good staff and facilities. The main downside is that although the beach is long at Siam Royal Bay, it’s not as good as the beaches further down the west coast of Koh Chang.
Also in the Siam Royal Bay development, you’ll find Little Sunshine Resort and Peninsula Beach Resort. These are both small beachfront resorts and both get excellent reviews, so are also worth considering.
Comfortable, especially for family holidays, but not suited for all. 😀 - Spacious comfy and clean room with very comfortable bed, large bathroom with great shower, large balcony with lovely view on the mountains. Nice long beach. Good restaurant (20 min walk from the rooms). Good breakfast (included). 😞 - There was nothing intimate about the place. The Marina Sands was part of a compound with private villas, a small golf court, and a small marina. The area was in development and everything was quite far spread out. You would need to use the shuttle to reach the main street/village/nearest convenience store. It was more of a holiday village (second homes) than a place for incidental independent travellers. If you want to have a better feel of Koh Chang, you should chose a smaller scale place, closer to a local community. (note: It would however be good if you came by pleasure yacht and used the marina). The reception staff was able to help with making tour bookings, but tour services were not their core bussiness and they would not do so late afternoon and evening.

Nice stay 😀 - The rooms were specious and clean. Staff was very friendly and welcoming. The beach area was well looked after. 😞 - The kids club room was closed for renovations, and there was no suitable swimming pool for small children. There are no amenities within close walking distance to the hotel. Nevertheless the hotel restaurant was very nice and suitably priced. The breakfast was decent but it contained more choices for meat eaters than vegans or vegetarians.

whilst our room was. very comfy, the resort itself was a disappointment. 😀 - the size of the bedroom , pool and gym 😞 - too spread out /no range of eateries/ remoteness and were VERY disappointed to be asked to pay an additional fee for two more pillows as only one each had been provided. Breakfast was EXTREMELY poor and some off the staff not particularly helpful.
