Simplicity - peace - personal -cleanliness -relaxation -no fuss We are located just outside the main resort, White Sands Beach, away from night time noise. On the edge of the National Park . We are 100m off the main road & unseen. So it`s nice and private. Yet over the road is a Tesco store to buy all your conveniences. You are in the perfect location for everything Koh Chang has to offer - beaches, waterfalls, shops, restaurants etc. Most visitors choose to get around the island on one of the many cheap `hop-on` taxis or rent an easy to use twist & go motorbike. Or you can walk but remember it`s a very big island! All 6 bungalows are simple & kept spotlessly clean. Every bungalow has the same facilities (upgraded in 2015) - Air Con (1 room is fan only), King Size bed, new mattress, bed sheets, pillows, duvet, shower, toilet, large wardrobe, tea/coffee making facility, free Wi Fi, flat screen TV, refrigerator, your own key, large balcony The reception area is communal where you can relax, help yourself to free tea/coffee and have breakfast. Catch up with other guests, we have also built 4 new large AC bungalows. that can sleep 3 people.
Our location is called Pearl Beach. 2 minutes by taxi to White Sands, 15 minutes from the ferry, 2 minutes to two wonderful beaches -White Sands & Chai Chet beach. Klong Plu is the most popular waterfall and that is 10 minutes by taxi. If you want to go on a boat trip, scuba diving, snorkeling we can arrange that. All trips go from Bang Bao pier at the end of the island. We have no neighbors at the E&C. It is very private, quiet, beautiful & peaceful. We are surrounded by the jungle. We have nice gardens where we grow a lot of our own fruit like coconuts, mango, papaya, peppers, chilies, peas etc. We also have a smoker to make great tasting food like chicken, sausage & bacon. We are 100m up a gentle sloping hill, which is not Mount Everest. Within easy reach of local restaurants, shops, Post Office, bars with live music, a laundry & a 24 hour Hospital Clinic. We do not have a safety box. However, our location is private and very secure. We do have 6 very friendly dogs & 2 cats. And you might see other wildlife....occasionally you`ll see a monkey or 2 in the trees. For me it`s heaven...I hope it is for you too :-)
