The Spa Koh Chang Resort

Hotel has many things other Koh chang hotels did have, e.g. yoga, steam room, meditation session with Buddha bowls and great vegan and normal meals.

No yoga teacher. Terrible , depressing room. Booze and noise. This did not constitute a spa experience in any way, shape or form. I left as soon as I could book an outbound flight. It was a total waste of time and money getting there and I would not recommend this place to anyone.

I rarely write reviews but I had such a wonderful time at the Ko Chang Spa I feel compelled to share my experience with anyone considering the retreat. The setting is a stunning, beautifully curated jungle backdrop but with all the amenities required for a comfortable stay. We stayed in the hillside cottage rooms which are perfect for enjoying the view and have a fabulous (sheltered) outdoor bath (and indoor shower) to enjoy. Our balcony looked out onto the resort jungle and mountains! The staff are welcoming and happy to go the extra mile to ensure you have everything you need. Olivia is the wonderfully spirited resident yoga and detox guru who ensures your detox programme is tailored to your needs and keeps you motivated - if that’s the reason for your visit. The thai and essential oil massages were excellent (thanks to Nalini and Lek) and I left knot free! There’s on-site complementary kayaking along the mangroves and local trips to a waterfall and stunning Long Beach - which I recommend highly! The food is freshly made and tasty although the breakfast is a little basic. Lunch and dinner options were good. At times I struggled to communicate with some of the restaurants staff due to their lack of English and although I agree I should be attempting to speak Thai when in Thailand - it would have been helpful for all if they spoke some basic English. The owners grandmother was often onsite and spoke fantastic English - she will attempt to teach it I’ve been told. There’s also a handy complementary taxi to and from the ferry port included. If you want a retreat in a unique, peaceful setting, surrounded by nature with a great pool, lake, daily yoga and massages on site then the Koh Chang Spa is the perfect choice!!
