We stayed at Rock Sands from 27 Dec-6 Jan for a NYE holiday on the beach and it was ideal for what we wanted which was to lie on the beach for 7 days and do absolutely nothing. The staff at Rock Sand were very friendly and Im sure would do thier best to help if you had any problems,... More

While being totally OK, the Rock Sand fails to awaken any enthusiasm. Without a doubt it has some things going for it but there are just too many things that simply could be done a little better. The staff didn't seem to be all too thrilled about the work, then there was the rattling fan, the room not being made... More

Dear Robert, I am sorry you visit was not to your satisfaction. We are still learning to be a hotel/resort. Our guesthouse and budget days are over. We are there for flashpackers as now mentioned in our objectives on our website. Best regards. More

My wife and I stayed for 2 nights in January 2012 and even though the first night rained, we had a great time relaxing in their common area and there were performers playing music starting at 8pm. Overall, it was quite good for the value, the location was separate from the main area, so a bit of a walk over... More

After spending hours and hours online prior to our recent trip to Koh Chang, I feel I obligated to share a little bit about my experience, having gained so much invaluable insight from reviews before coming to Thailand. We arrived in Koh Chang just after Christmas. Stayed for 4 nights, 5 days at the Rock Sand Resort. Overall, we loved... More

We stayed in Thailand for three weeks and we were waiting for a nice relaxing week on Koh Chang. We got what we wanted at Rock Sand Resort. Good rooms, clean!! Very nice staff who helped us plan great one day trips on the Island. The view from the restaurant is the best, mornings, afternoons and evenings you can enjoy... More

Sadly the excitement we had for our prepaid stay in the Rock Sand "penthouse" was very disappointing. They advertise a room range from basic B&B to "luxury rooms". In our opinion (we were a group of 1 foreigner and 3 Thais) it would be better described as basic hostel to luxury hostel. The walk from the main road to the... More

Dear Sir, We are very sorry that your stay was disappointing. I would like to react on behalf of our staff and us. Within an hour of your arrival you apologised to me that you had been so rude to our staff. You told me that your bustrip had been awful and you had words in the family during your... More

We planned to spend five days on the island but after all we spend one week. The location was perfect and the view was even better. We loved the staff and the service at the hotel. Koh Chang is a great spot for a relax vacation but also for lots of activities. We loved the hotel and we would really... More

I usually book hotels based solely on Trip Advisor so I must say I think that this place should be higher up on the Koh Chang ratings. We found it after we arrived on koh chang and were not happy with the location of our pre-booked hotel. Rock Sand is definitely not lavish but it's clean, friendly and right on... More
