History

Ek and Dave(Ek is from a local Thai family, born on Koh Chang, while Dave is of Welsh-Canadian origin) founded their original hotel resort in 1998 on a prime piece of beachside property on Koh Chang 's most desirable beach, White Sand Beach. Named in honour of their new baby daughter, Alina, the hotel was an immediate success. With its charming, family-style approach, personal service and friendly staff, Ek and Dave (and little Alina) soon found their resort becoming a favourite with locals and tourists alike.

Four years later, Ek and Dave purchased the property across the road, and plans began for their new expansion, Alina Grande. With every detail designed with the comfort of their guests in mind, Alina Grande opened in early 2006, and continues to grow and thrive, while never losing the personal touch that Alina Grande Hotel and Resort is known for.

 

1. Boat Trips
The beautiful and unspoiled islands around Koh Chang offer excellent opportunities for boating, as well as both diving and snorkelling.There are both half day and full day trips available. All equipment is included, as well as lunch and transportation to and from the boat.

2. Elephant Riding
"Chang" means "Elephant" in the Thai language -- so what better place to experience these magnificent animals than Koh Chang? Take an elephant ride through the jungle from one of their island camps, and learn more about these intelligent and noble creatures.

3. Trekking
The development on Koh Chang is confined to the villages and coastal road, so there is plenty of unspoiled wilderness to explore. The jungle is home to numerous varieties of monkey, barking dear, wild boars and monitor lizards, as well as birds such as great hornbills, eagles and many more.

 

 

 

 

Many streams run through the rainforest, and waterfalls abound. Our knowledgable staff can recommend a variety of guided treks, tailored to your particular interests, and ranging from easy walks to the more challenging mountain treks for the experienced hiker.

 

 

 

 

Plus more : We can arrange everything including car tours, motor bike tours, night fishing trips, and tours of the island's colorful farms and picturesque fishing villages. Koh Chang has a rich and interesting variety of things to do, and you'll find our staff both knowledgeable and helpful.
