The Retreat Koh Chang is set within Mu Ko Chang National Park, surrounded by protected rainforest and
overlooking the Gulf of Thailand. Tucked between Kai Bae Beach and a quiet fishing village,
it offers uninterrupted sea views, with jungle-covered mountains rising quietly behind.
Koh Chang is known for its natural richness, with diverse ecosystems and rare flora protected within one of Thailand’s most significant marine parks. Rich in culture and community traditions, the island’s rainforest, mountains,
and sea remain deeply connected to local ways of life—offering nature in its most authentic form.
At The Retreat Koh Chang, rejuvenation begins with stillness, nature, and a gentle return to balance. Surrounded by rainforest and sea, our tranquil setting offers space to unwind, restore a tired mind and body, and reconnect with what matters. Here, wellness is nurtured through simplicity, community, and a sense of belonging—an atmosphere that feels like a second home, where you can recharge and rediscover your inner clarity.
Guided by a Tropical Zen ethos, our spaces breathe with natural light and open air. Thai craftsmanship and
modern tropical design create an effortless, grounded atmosphere, shaped by repurposed teak wood and
sustainable materials. Art from local artisans draws inspiration from the island’s nature, completing a calm,
timeless sanctuary crafted for mindful living.
Guided by respect for Koh Chang’s beauty, we integrate sustainability into every part of The Retreat — from reclaimed hundred-year-old teak wood to eco-friendly materials and technologies that reduce our environmental impact. We work in harmony with nature, preserving the island’s ecosystems and supporting local communities through partnerships with artisans and designers. Accessories crafted from vines, bamboo, and natural fibers bring the island’s textures into our spaces.
Thoughtful waste management and a composting program nourish both our gardens and the community. The Retreat lives within the rhythm of the island, tended by people who call this place home. Our gardens, with more than 50 native species, spill through the pathways, kept thriving by skilled hands and a shared respect for the land.
