Certainly the finest hotel on Koh Chang, The Emerald Cove (formerly the Amari) is located on Klong Prao Beach.

Each of the hotel's four main buildings is set amongst its delightful tropical gardens creating a feeling of space and privacy. Rooms are extremely well-sized and finished in a contemporary Thai-style using local silk and art, with views over the gardens or the ocean from the private balcony. Undoubtedly one of the resort's key features is the huge lap pool, just a few strides from the beach. There's also a good choice of dining venue and a reasonably priced spa.
