Salakphet Resort

Location away from nightmare concrete mass tourism of Koh Chang ' s grossly overbuilt west coast makes it all worthwhile. Nature and rubber farms. Not much else. Good food if in the pricey side for Thailand. Still dirt cheap by US or American standards.

A bit of a strange place, more of a commercial fishery than a hotel. Nice location on the Lagoon but zero opportunity to snorkel or swim. No tours offered, not boat ride... A good thing I rented a moped at boat pier, otherwise I would have been stuck there. Cheaper rooms have zero view, zero water exposure, just the constant buzz of AC units and fishery compressors, fyi!
