Scenic Hotel along Bang Bao Bay”

Beautiful view, A/C, comfortable, nice warm lighting

the first i loved about buddha view is, well... the view! it's extremely peaceful to wake up in the morning, walk outside for breakfast and have a wonderful view of the bay. the rooms are simple, but accommodating. one thing i did love about the rooms is that they have warm lighting, my girlfriend and i absolutely can't stand cheap florescent lights, so that was a big plus. last of all, the location is fairly good. being at the southern tip of koh chang it is about an hour to hour and a half taxi ride from the ferry drop off, but the beaches near bang bao are far less crowded than the overpopulated white sand beach. also, if you walk about 5 to 10 minutes from the hotel there is a motor bike rental shop, which allows cheap and easy access to the rest of the island. overall, i had a very comfortable stay at buddha view.

BEAUTIFUL”

Me and a friend stayed here for two nights when we were looking for relaxation. Located By the bang bao pier, all the hotels and restaurants are built along a pier over the water, so beautiful. Buddha view was by far the nicest out of the places we saw. more of a "spa" feeling with nice facilities. Staff was really helpful and friendly. Restaurant adjacent to the hotel was a bit pricey but there were cheaper restaurants along the pier. Well worth a trip here if you are in koh Chang!

The location, the food, the friendly owners

We fell in love with the life on baan bao pier, the views are incredible especially around sunset. The food here is very good and such a lovely dinning atmosphere. I really enjoyed waking up and having the place to ourselves for breakfast. We rented a motorbike which meant we could get to the beaches and waterfalls easily. I would definitely recommend this. We our planning on returning here for sure , can't wait to see you again Buddha view.

A unique experience at the bottom of the world”

Great little location in the very south of Koh Chang at Bang Bao Pier. Cute fisherman style shacks double as your room. The Buddha view also comes with a well equipped kitchen and a variety of dishes on its restaurant's menu. Views to die for on the horizon and as an added bonus some table let you dangle your feet over the sea so you get a view of the dishes below too. A basic but beautiful setup - tastefully done.

Peaceful place”

I enjoyed very much staying at The Buddha View guesthouse. It was the perfect place to escape from the crowd during Songkran water festival. The room was clean, the restaurant served good food and the staff were very friendly and nice. You will feel truly relaxed with the Buddhist meditation background music played at the restaurant. The owner of the guesthouse also has a nice restaurant, the Salt beach bistrot worth checking out in Kai Bae beach!

Value for Money, Superb design concept”

Nice theme and well decorated, value for money and quiet surroundings

The interior outlook of the guesthouse was very nicely done up. Friendly and helpful staffs. Quiet environment which is great for chilling out with friends or for a romantic getaway. However, it seems that the water and electricity supply in Ko Chang is relative unstable. Water was cut off for a couple of hours during the late mornings and wee hours which are its main downsides. The location of the Guesthouse is all the way down south of the island which is far from the main stretches of bench where most food and services are found. I would strongly recommend getting your own transportation (ie. rent a motorcycle or car) if you select Buddha View. Nonetheless, it a great place for a sweet escapade.

The best place in Bang Bao. European management. Price/quality very good. Beautiful temporary thai style, superior view, relaxing music, & very good food. 1 remark: because everything is build in wood (you can see the sea between your foot (!)) people who don't sleep easily; better bring earplugs

Good for first night in Bang Bao”

Location for the first night. Cleanliness. Security.

This hotel was what I expected, based on previous reviews. I felt is was a "safe choice" for my first night in Bangbao. The second day I looked for something cheaper (and frankly not nearly as nice) and found it. I did not eat or drink at the Buddha, but had to give it a rating due to a flaw in this evaluation template. There should be a choice labeled "Not Applicable" for those who did not eat or drink in the hotel.

We stayed for 3 nights, the room was clean and comfortable! Unfortunately they were repairing a shack next door and the building work was very early, as very loud. You are about 2 metres above the sea with gaps in the floor boards so you can see, smell and enjoy it. Magical place for first stay in Koh Chang.

Nice stay in buddha view. Food was really good although a bit pricey. three suggestions to management: pls get a rack to womens toilet in the restaurant for hanging a purse, a shelf or something for soap above the sink in the room could be very useful, the windows in room 4 need the same kind of metal covers (to avoid thieves getting in) as in room 3.

As previously mentioned, this is a basic accomodation in the restaurant, yet comfortable and air-conditioned. I stayed in a room with shared bathroom, my friends - in an en-suite room, and we all were happy with our choices. What makes this place a unique experience is a large outdoor restaurant with nice decor and tasty food. If you're planning a short stay and going to take the boat to one of the neighbouring islands, I would highly recommend this guesthouse.

Cute little guesthouse attached to a good restaurant. We stayed here for a couple of nights. The shared bathrooms were good and clean. The sink in the room and the walls around could be a bit cleaner though (there were many toothpaste sprinkles). The restaurant was good, although a bit pricy compared to other places. But hey they have glass tables through which you can look into the water. That was pretty special and the food was good. They started to work in the restaurant at 7.30 am, so bring ear plugs, if you don’t want to wake up early.
