Situated in the Gulf of Thailand is a tropical island paradise, affectionately called Koh Chang or in English, Elephant Island. Koh Chang is the second largest island (429 square kilometers) in Thailand after Phuket. Despite its size Koh Chang is quite undeveloped. It is a picturesque island of virgin rainforest, untracked jungles, high mountains, spectacular coastlines, fine white sandy beaches, clear blue sea, colorful corals, breathtaking waterfalls and an abundance of marine life.
Aiyapura is located on a forty acre beach-front property in Klong Son Bay. Beautiful Thai style villas and suites are surrounded by green tropical gardens with ocean views, set around a large 30 meter leaf shaped swimming pool. Koh Chang can be reached from Bangkok by direct flight in only 45 minutes, or in 5 hours by car.
About the hotel: Very nice hotel, staff very service minded and helpful. Beautiful view over the bay -location a bit off, depends what you re looking for. Dining at the resort more expensive than at White sand beach, but it easy to get to White sand beach but shuttle or taxi.
We enjoyed our stay and will absolutely come back.
About the reservation service: Easy booking and booking service helpful to sort you out.
About the hotel: Let me make the summery first - WE CAN NOT RECOMMENT THIS RESORT!!
All the nice AWARDS like - green leaf or non Smoking Hotel - is just paint over the bad conditions we find there.
The Hotel must fulfill the promisses from there leaflet then it would be A good stay.
We booked the Oriental Villa for 6 nights. The room it self was nice and spacy. The service was professional friendly - maybe they are bored by the VERY low season. At the first day we claim that the Hot Water is not working. Staff get bussy with the heater - without success - the Water was never more then 30 degree centigarde!! We claimed the following days again without A positive result. In the bathroom is A Jacuzzi which was useless - the water comming in was cold and brown. Claiming about that showes that it may never work before, cause the receptionist offers instandly to use 30min(!) free of charge the jacuzzi in the Spa - what A joke! The high degree Bath room was one reason for my booking! It was NOT possible to use the Aircon and the Hotwater maker at the same time, it caused A fuse switch!That s make the downgrade of the Room quality to POOR! Even the breakfast was far from expect, Thai Food was neutral in test, Western Food - except Muesli and any kind of friend eggs, not in offer and even to count as poor. The pool water appears as dull especially around the Pool bar. The unlikely weather (not the responsebility of the Hotel ;-) ) on top make as leaving the hotel - even we waste some money - one day prior!
About the reservation service: The booking with Sawasdee is like all the many times before simply perfect! Thank s for that!
About the hotel: This is a lovely hotel, worthy of its five stars. Excellent breakfast with wide variety. Good sized rooms with coffee/tea facilities and fruit and chocolate delivered every day, as well as TV and DVD facilities and balcony. Kind and helpful staff. Lovely pool which though freeform is both good for playing as well as exercise as it is big and has mini-pools for kids attached. Small but clean beach, good facilities to do other things - trampolining, swinging, bikes (though these not in great condition!) Very lush surroundings. Restaurant has very good food but too expensive compared to other local options (but then that is why we went out most nights!) Had a lovely holiday - thoroughly recommend
About the reservation service: Everything worked fine. Questions answered promptly
About the hotel: Very nice resort and the Strand Villas where we lived in were excellent! Very much space for two people :) The food at Christmas Eve buffet = excellent! What kind of food!
The only thing that we didnt like were the sea bed at the beach, it were very muddy and poor.
I will recommend this resort and the strand villas!
About the reservation service: Smooth and without problems! I like the comments from other visitors.
About the hotel: Absolutely fantastic. We were treated like royalty for the whole time we were there. The staff and the whole set up made the days we spent there such a pleasure. I would not hesitate in recommending this resort to anyone and it is one place we have vowed to return in the future. The food was excellent, they have a great gym, and an on site shop where you can buy drinks etc at reasonable prices. The shuttle service into town works well also and if you do want to get back in the evening they will pick you up or it is easy to get a taxi for 300 Baht. Overall we would rate this 10 out of 10.
About the hotel: Absolute paradise. We live in Bangkok and were very pleased to find such a place still exists which is still so beautifully isolated from the hustle bustle of normal tourist resorts. Highly recommendable, especially in the low season !! Great value for money, great staff. Only one issue, which we always encounter ... background western pop music at breakfast [which they kindly switched off when we asked] and live western music at dinner. No need guys ! This is Thailand ... we want to sit and listen to the jungle noises and sea, not Elton John covers.
About the reservation service: Excellent. First time, and will use you again
About the hotel: Excellent. This is my sixth trip to Thailand but never I felt so comfortable as in Aiyapura Resort & Spa, Koh Chang. A relaxed atmosphere, a beautiful suite next to the sea and an excellent food have made my stay very pleasant. The staff is excellent, both at the reception as services, always pleasant and helpful. Very good organization in general throughout the complex, whit many details for the guests. Will back the next time.
About the hotel: Very lovely hotel. Nice and friedly staf. The only ting that we can complain about is that the freebus to White Sand beach had so few departures.
About the reservation service: Easy to use thailandsguiden, a lot of information how to find hotels and easy to book hetels.
About the hotel: After originally booking for 5 days we ended up staying for 14 days it was so good. The resort is Big, uncrowded and the staff are absolutely wonderful. Cannot fault the accomodations or the restaurants, Beach is poor but we knew that, there s a free shuttle bus to white sands several times a day, All the Island tours and attractions picked up from the resort and its location at the top of the Island allowed us to explore the island in any direction. Absolutely fantastic, the best two weeks we have spent in S.E.Asia and will recommend it to all and will return when we can. *****
About the reservation service: good as usual, no problems, I would have preferred to pay a deposit rather than forced to pay 100% over the internet for something I wasnt sure about.
