To provide maximum privacy, Nest Sense Resort offers only 18 rooms. These are set in 6,000sqm of grounds which slope down from the hillside reception to the sea. The resort’s accommodation is comprised of 5 Seaside Villas, 5 Sea View Pool Villas, and 8 Deluxe Rooms.

Pool villa interior at Nest Sense Resort, Lonely beach.

All Villas have a private balcony with a breathtaking sea view. Deluxe rooms are in two, two-storey buildings set back from the sea.  (Book an upstairs Deluxe room if you want to be sure of having a sea view).  The light and airy rooms and villas are decorated in a minimalist style and equipped with the usual TV, refrigerator, water heater, desk, as well as wifi in the room.

As it’s a small resort breakfast is ordered à la carte, but guests can order what they like until they are full.  There are many menu options to choose from, including Thai, American and European. 

If you love a bit of luxury, want to avoid the large impersonal resorts and also like a night out, then Nest Sense Resort would be an ideal base for your holiday on Koh Chang. 

True, it’s not right on the beach, but that’s the only real downside to staying here.

A picturesque and comfortable stay in Koh Chang. 😀 - At check in we were greeted by the staff with a welcome drink and escorted to our room- where they kindly provide you with flip flops, a beach bag, and nice robes for your stay. Complimentary water was provided on a daily basis and the room was very spacious with a balcony which had a great view. The bed was very comfortable and really big, with the pillows being not so comfortable for our personal likings. The room was very clean, and wifi was good. Being a guest in this hotel, you almost felt like that each guest has there own house/apartment- everyone had there privacy- the rooms which have pools being even more secluded from the rest. I would highly recommend this stay for a couple that just wants to relax in Koh Chang. In walking distance there are nice food and massage options and with a 15 min walk you can reach Lonely beach which is a nice beach to spend your day or watch the sunset. The beach at the hotel is not a sandy beach, but the hotel has a spectacular view just to sit and relax by the pool to enjoy the sea-side view. I must say the pool offers a breathtaking view, which is probably a reason enough to book your stay at this hotel. The staff was always very polite and welcome, when asked they provided us with some tour options for our stay and arranged for a taxi/transportation back to the airport upon our return. Also a nice note is that they have a happy hour at the bar, which was a nice incentive to stay at the hotel relax at the pool drinking an alcoholic drink or mocktail. 😞 - Dinner and massage are much more expensive than the local prices, we ended up trying both in close proximity of the hotel- found great options. Since it is complicated to arrive at the island, it would had been great if the service offered for our departure was offered for our arrival- again a note to the hotel if you could send this as welcome message to your guests. The furniture at the room does look a bit worn down, does need a small refurbishment - although it was in an okay condition for our stay. Also a small note you need to add, netflix is offered but without an account- which one can not log into their personal account anymore in most cases. It would had been easier for the hotel to create an account and leave it logged in, as most places do nowadays. Breakfast was moderate, you are offered a la cart options to choose two dishes (which is a bit excess I would say), which were okay but not great. If we would had stayed more than 3 days, I believe we would had probably tried another brunch option near by. Having said the above, these are all minor issues which did not affect our excellent stay in Koh Chang. I wish we could had stayed longer! <3

Good 😀 - Great à la carte breakfast! 😞 - A lot of bugs and a lot of stair (not easy when you have heavy luggage.)

Stunning resort. Total relaxation. 😀 - We stayed in several luxury accommodations during our time island hopping and this was by far our most favourite. We had the villa with private pool (room v8) and it was fantastic. We instantly felt at home. Great little private pool, lovely shower, comfy super king bed and the air conditioning was fantastic. We didn't want to leave this place. Lovely staff too. Always serving with a smile. Breakfasts were great and staff always willing to help out. Would highly recommend this lovely resort. Total relaxation. If you want something more lively at night then there's an array of local bars and restaurants a few minutes walk into the village. Thank you Nest Sense for a lovely stay. We will miss this place. Chris and Suvi. 😞 - None

Highly recommended. Great staff, good room, beautiful location. 😀 - I loved everything about my time here. The staff was so friendly and helpful. The breakfast was delicous and healthy, with a good selection. The view of the ocean was beautiful. It was very quiet and peaceful. The room was clean and comfortable. The items on the menu were delicious, as were the cocktails. However, the restaurant is more expensive than other options. It is a quiet part of the island, so I recommend renting a motorcycle for more mobility. But it is a short walk to Lonely Beach.
