The Retreat Koh Chang

A considered, contemporary Koh Chang hideaway

Arrive at The Retreat Koh Chang by ferry, and step into a sanctuary of tropical zen. Designed and built in harmony with its natural environment, this is a boutique focused on delivering peace, serenity, and authentic island experiences. Along with panoramic views of endless blue, fusion dining and divine cocktails. 

The Retreat’s bedrooms and suites are special spaces to relax in. Handmade local art complements sustainable reclaimed teak wood, with outdoor decks and balconies revealing sweeping ocean vistas. Saunter directly into one of the hotel’s four swimming pools from ground-floor suites, while strategic planting and design keeps your outside space beautifully private. Opt for The Retreat Duplex Pool Vill a for a taste of two-storey luxury along with a dedicated private butler service and your very own pool. It’s just a short stroll from your bedroom to the wave-lapped Ocean Terrace, where locally and sustainably sourced ingredients are spun up into creative dishes. After dark, the Ocean Terrace transforms into Zojima, the perfect venue to sate your appetite for sushi and more Japanese-infused culinary creations or chill out by the pool with service from the portable Teak Bar that mixes your favourite drinks lounger-side.

You can unleash your own inner mixologist with a Cocktail Masterclass at The Retreat, or hone your Thai cooking skills under the tutelage of a talented chef. Float out onto the turquoise Gulf waters on a paddleboard or kayak, or beach-hop by (complimentary) bicycle. Venture to nearby islands on the resort’s fishing boat and spend an afternoon exploring pristine coral reefs on a snorkelling excursion before idling beneath the Thai sun with a beachfront picnic. The oceanside  gym comes with a side of killer workout views, while the spa offers heaven-sent treatments. Stroll the organic gardens, try a sunset yoga class, and end your day at the outdoor cinema, movie-watching in the softly scented, warm night air.

Enjoy your stay!

The-Retreat-Koh-Chang-Environment

Environmentally Conscious

Wrapped up within the natural beauty of Koh Chang National Park, The Retreat takes active steps towards protecting the island’s marine life and surrounding rainforest. The resort is helping to restore the Tien Thale tree population in the national park, encourages guests to contribute towards replanting efforts, and opens its organic farm as a learning centre for sustainable growing practices to local farmers. Solar rooftop panels supply most of The Retreat’s daytime electricity needs, there are water conservation, composting, and recycling systems in place, and the biodiverse gardens planted with local flora are pesticide- and fungicide-free. Mountain bikes are free for guests to use, and there’s an electric golf cart service for short journeys around the resort.

The-Retreat-Koh-Chang-Culture

Cultural Custodians

Built using reclaimed teakwood sourced from hundred-year-old houses in northern Thailand, The Retreat preserves wooden resources as well as weaving historical elements throughout the hotel design. Skilled local carpenters are responsible for the beautiful woodwork throughout, including the flooring, bedframes, desks, and sun loungers. The artwork, cushion covers, beach bags, baskets, and slippers are made by island-based artisans, and many of these hand-crafted items can be purchased at the hotel on request. The Retreat organises authentic Thai cooking classes, fruit carving, and Batik painting workshops, alongside cultural performances which showcase traditional dances and instruments — especially during special holidays like Songkran and Loy Krathong.

The-Retreat-Koh-Chang-Community

Community Minded

The Retreat takes part in volunteering work and beach clean-ups, while making regular donations to local schools, temples, and community projects like K-Avenue (an open-air shopping centre offering high-quality, affordable food to local residents). The hotel also offers sponsorship for local sporting events, such as the Koh Chang Trail Run, a major marathon mapped across the island. The sea-to-table restaurant sources ingredients from local fishermen right off the boats each day, and organises visits to nearby fishing villages including Salak Khok and Salak Phet. Guided boat tours take guests through the island’s mangrove forests, stopping at handicraft villages and fruit plantations to experience the rural way of life and purchase goods straight from small suppliers.
