  No unpleasant surprises. Great :)

  This is an honest place near the sea shore and lonely beach. We booked here because of 1.) the pool and 2.) the closeness to lively places my husband likes. And the place delivered the promised properties along with a very good fast WIFI for my Netflix. This is one of the few places where the photos match the reality and the description is honest and accurate. Obviously the owners do not let the place decompose or run down like many other places operate. For a very reasonable price we got one of the 10 quite spacious rooms. Each room as a little space to sit outside nearby the clean and well maintained and sun shaded pool (POOL YES!!!). Things in the room work properly and are not worn out, there are only 3 drawbacks from the average European point of view: no fridge, the bed is unbearably hard and there is no real bed sheet so it is hard to adjust sleeping temperature with the A/C on, something a person like me needs to get any sleep at all. Against the nearby super noisy bars (boom boom all night) you get free earplugs so that you can sleep like a baby. I think this place is very clean, tidy, well maintained and definitely worth the bucks. We wish good luck to the owner couple for the future.

  Christmas vacation.

  Had a lovely stay. Our room was as advertised. Freshly painted, clean and neat. Comfortable bed and pillows. The room gets cleaned when you ask for it at no extra charge. The pool was clean and well looked after. Premises is clean and neat. Had endless games playing pool and darts. There is a Thai restaurant across the road with great food, we have been to a few around the island but kept on coming back and saying we should have had all our meals right there! Cashew chicken was around 80 baht, Somtum 60 baht. Good value for money. Breakfast can be ordered at Carpe Diem. Breakfast was good. The vibe is friendly and relaxed. We rented scooters from a friend of Peter's wife for 200 baht a day and you get it will a full tank of gas which you fill up before taking it back. The scooters was brought to us. There is a hair salon just up the road. Lonely beach is a 3 minute drive from Carpe Diem. The shops and restaurants in the main road is a 2 minute walk away. We also drove all over exploring beaches and restaurants. The only thing that bothered us was the music at night from neighbouring bars and clubs but this is no secret. I recommend Carpe Diem - good value for money.

  Retreat get away

  I have to admit that this holiday retreat from work has been a great relaxing journey, I was booked in Carpe Diem Guests House by a friend of friends recommendation for 1 night as it's was getting late and I'm in the middle of the famous "Lonely Beach" was expecting to check out the next day so I paid for my one night stay, but once I walked in to the accommodation area with swimming pool in the middle and the room was newly furnished I was more than satisfied the room has a flat screen TV with satellite box, large double bed, hot water and safety deposit box within your room once you open your door it's just half of a step away from the swimming pool there's a table and chairs in front of every room for you to chill in front of your room so once I really settle in my room I came to chill by the pool and I saw that the gardens is very well look after very tidy very neat so I was curious of the gardener only the owner could have taken care of the garden tbis well, so I was happy of the place the next day I met "Peter" at the check out time, he knocked on the door and asked are you gonna stay another night, I said yes "I would like to extend one more day" in the end I stayed for another 4 nights, I get to have good conversations with Peter he's been looking after merrily nearly everything there a cool guy indeed... if you're in Koh Chang in Lonely Beach looking for accommodation I would definitely recommend this place "Carpe Diem" during this time it's quiet no pumping music from Ting Tong bar and it's close to all the convenience store, bar and restaurant, only a few steps to the beach as well... I myself will be going back there sometime soon. Well done Peter.

  Friendly, fun place

  My wife and I stayed with Peter and Aemsira for a week, and really enjoyed our time with them and their 5 Star dog, Mee. The rooms are clean and very well equipped for the price - very comfy bed, good quality shower, air-con, wall fan and hairdryer. They also let us borrow a fridge for our stay. There is a nice pool, with sun shield above and plenty of chairs and tables around their lovely garden area. There is also a bar with sports TV and a pool table. Peter and Aemsira are great hosts - helpful, fun and genuine people and we really enjoyed our 1 week stay them and their 5 Star dog, Mee.

They even put on a leaving party for us the night before we left with a free BBQ for all the guests, and the next day Peter kindly took us and all our luggage in his car - was really kind of him.

  Friendly, quiet, and good value

  We just returned from a pleasant stay on the island of Koh Chang, where we stayed 3 nights at the Carpe Diem guest house in Lonely Beach. Let me start by saying in these Covid times things are quiet everywhere, but I have researched Koh Chang first and and this guest house appeared on my FB feed. The owner Peter and his wife have spent alot of time and money to build a small, simple, clean and friendly guest house in the center of Lonely Beach. Rooms well kept, simple, clean, and just fantastic. Pool at my front door. Peter the owner and keeper of the guest house, always has a cold beer or drink available if needed. My girlfriend and I felt very at home staying here and would not hesitate to stay again. Walking distance to everywhere, and he even had a small covered parking spot for my new motorbike. If you are looking for budget accommodation friendly and safe service, you don't need to look further.
