- Come along to see not so Lonely Beach on this day (weekend and great to see people enjoying again). Also have a nose around the area, look at a bargain beachfront monthly rental, plus a few hotels from budget to luxury. Finally enjoy the perfect sundowner at a reggae bar fire-pit on the beach. Thanks for coming along, hope you enjoy. Links:

I’ve been trying to figure out how to get a longer visa so I can travel for a 3 - 6 months but not having much luck with the convoluted confusing system. What’s the best visa for me?
Think the ill named 'STV' visa is still in place (?) which grants 90 days +extension. But best check with your local Thai Embassy (or website).
Working on retirement in Thailand with my very dear friend, this place looks like paradise.
What you see in the video and what is reality are very, very different. You'll be bored out of your mind in less than a month.
Oh mate That is truly complete an utter total paradise! Thanks for making a video that keeps me working harder so I can come for six weeks of Christmas!
I love the comments you put across the bottom it helps me I can pause the video and write stuff down thank you very much I also love that there is no crap music I tend to enjoy the same music you do thank you again
Thanks Jackie. STL
Fantastic little place, amazing what a little cleaning and a few extras do for a room. The power board is one of my favourite travel hacks, that and never trust a fart.......
Sage travel advice right there lol
great video
i going there based on this video!!!
stayed tuned
This is exactly what I want to experience in Thailand. I’m coming in September, hoping the rains hold of for my visit . 🙏
I have been living in Chiang Mai and visiting Koh Chang for years. Great to see it coming back to life. And you visit places I have not been which encourages me to go visit them too. Thanks eh. Kevin from Oakville, Ontario
Cool roof deck!
Good stuff. Just enough people to keep things interesting. Prices are great.
What a great place to chill and have a few beers , " Yaa Mon " LOL . Thank you for sharing , Enjoy ....
Yaaa Mon, it really was! Thanks Karl :) STL
Great tunes and good to see Lonely beach getting some life back, thanks x
Thanks Mia. It's quieter during the week but for sure great to see weekends starting to get livelier
Its really nice you make a video without any music in the video ( only the music of the bars- cafe´s) and just like it really is. How it would be to walk around there. :-) makes the video really calming and good to watch.
Had a mint week here when travelling here in 2006. The huts were loads more basic. Not fully watertight, outside shower, mattress on the floor draped by a mosquito net 😂. Happy days though. I'll be back one day.
'06 sounded amazing! Hope you get back!
I visit Ko Chang 30 years ago, it was bungalows on the beach. $2 a night…..
I love everything about your vlogs mate.dont change anything.i love your come along with me as i explore style and the cost detail you share.your vlogs are a fantastic resource for anyone intending to travel to thailand in the near future.thank you very much for sharing.p.s.i am very envious🙂
Cheers Atiamuri! STL
I always used to stay in that exact bungalo you checked at about 4.00 min. Last time must have been 10 years ago, I live in Bangkok now and we always go to something more upscale these days. Had such a blast there in my late 20's when the legendary Treehouse bar a few 100 meter further was still open. Bungalo still looks exactly the same too, rock hard beds and very bare bones but cheap and that ocean view is just the best.
YOu're really doing a much bigger thing here than just posting clips of a pretty destination, you're opening the door to life changing adventures to those who dont quite understand how to get there on their own. It's a wonderful thing, and you are really getting me ready to make the jump into my next life adventure. Where do you hang out the most? Are you staying in Thailand right now or elsewhere? How has it been for you with the inter-country travelling? Expensive? Have you found any areas outside of Bangkok that are kind of dangerous?
I miss living in Thailand and traveling to all the fun islands there. 💕
That place looks amazing
Yes we have heard it’s only temporary until the markets are finished being rebuilt. That will be very different carpark underneath and two levels of markets we think.😊
Will be there in February can’t wait to be back.
Thanks for showing us around ❤
Man, you're cracking us up with the Ti-TanK😂
lol yeah, I should make those mistakes more often as all the comments add to the algorithm so thanks :)
@@SideTripLife Right on. I try to comment as iften as possible to help "encourage" the algo to show support. We also watch several vids in a row. We appreciate what you do.
Your videos are spot on. Perfect mix of places to stay , eating and drinking options as well as travel info all with clear pricing details. It all helps us to hit the ground running and save loads of time. Great job. Thanks .
I spent a lovely week on Lonely beach in 2001 waiting for my India visa to process. Being just a few hours from Bangkok it was easy to get to.
So many amazing sunsets. They were just building a place at the end of the beach but otherwise nothing but coconut trees around the rocky shoreline back then. Thanks for the video. Happy Travels from Kamloops
Great memories! Thanks for sharing from Kamloops (great area too:) STL
are you from the UK? did you get your Indian visa, any problems?
Enjoyed witching. Very peaceful. I was stationed in Bangkok in 1969. Fond memories of the Thai people
Those spots are great, thanks for sharing! Always look forward to your new videos
Thanks Joe :)
Always look at the SideTripLife , do do do =)
Thanks kindly Malin :) STL
Another awesome video 🙏
Thx Matthew
Great stuff, STL. Can't wait to get back but will be a while for this traveler. Thanks for all the intel. Look forward to the next vid. Cheers!
100 kudos for this movie
100 thanks for watching and commenting :) STL
Thanks for the fantastic video. So many years on lonely beach.. I even seeing my appartment. Regards jeff
Nice one Jeff! You must have some stories and wonderful memories from living on LB :)
Will have to take a trip back to Koh Chang, it has been many years since i was last there and it has really changed a lot, thanks for taking the time to post the videos...
Thanks for this, been to Koh Chang many times and love it so much. Quiet compared to some of the other Thai Islands, but that is what i love about it. Keep the vids coming, as i love to see your travels and gives us all ideas of where we might go.
Great vlog as always, boss! I can't wait to get back.
Nice one mate ,,,,,,,catching up as back in UK after 30 days travelling around Thailand
Nice
Nice one Rob, hope you had a great trip! STL
Another great video STL! You have a great life! Two weeks to go before we arrive in Phuket - can’t wait to be back in Thailand. It’s been almost 3 years. Keep up the good work!
Thanks Add. 2 weeks to go after 3 years waiting? wow! Toes in sand on Phuket is gonna feel GREAT, enjoy! STL
Great video! 👍🏼👏🏻👏🏻
Soon I will check the recommended places 🤗
From one Canadian to an other, great video. Just made it back to Thailand about a month ago, so happy to be back and making a new life here. you got yourself a new subscriber. 🇨🇦🇹🇭
Thanks Nick ST-Francois (and welcome back eh;) STL
I like your style of videos including prices and reviews on the fly.
Thanks for the video dude, like the chilled out style, back watching videos again and psyching myself up to go to Thailand in the next few months. Doing world year trip tempted to start with a month in an apartment on the beach Like this.
Nice work - good descriptions - great variety - Thanks from Nova Scotia -Canada!
What a magical spot. Must put on to do list. Thank you
It's very relaxing to watch your videos. Good job!
Thanks :)
Looks great just so much to see in Thailand itself
Nice place and so beautiful sunset 😮😊👍🌄🌅
Great video mate,Love watching your videos.Great to see Koh Chang looking abit busy again.
Cheers Robbo. KC getting a bit busier on weekends (as in this vid) and for sure great to see
Envious of your visits to all those bars in your videos lately. I miss those kind of beach bars so very much. And thanks for all the hotel hunting vids. They are absolutely helpful.
Thanks Alofzico, I absolutely love nosing around a new place, room/hotel hunting and BEST of all, chill beach bars! So my pleasure. STL
Recently discovered your channel, great stuff. Yeah, always endure it to the end!
Cheers John!
@@SideTripLife Meant to mention, I grew up in Victoria, wife grew up in Metchosin. When you mentioned Sooke Potholes we had a good laugh.
Beautiful and helpfull video!
Watched till the end as always 👌🏻
Awesome vid! Just booked our flights to Thailand for january 2023 and we heading straight to koh chang. Its been on our radar for ages but we havent been able to go to thailand since 2020 😫
Overwhelmingly a place to go - LB - thanks for showing some real Lanta - 👌 very much enjoyed STL 🍻😎👌👍🙏
We really enjoy your content, thanks. Reminds us of our several trips to Thailand in the past. We hope to visit again one day.
Thank you kindly Inge & co :)
as usual Great great video. Thanks for such a great informative video
Thank you Kate
Last time on koh chiang was 15/yrs ago, way sleepier. Love the rude boy bar. Thanks for the tips
Cheers from Brampton Ontario. I love the unique places you find with price considerations, just beautiful. I hope to get to Thailand God willing, great channel by the way, live long and prosper young man.
@dabronks hello in Brampton and what a nice surprise! My 1st ever 'super thanks' contributor. You Tube said they added this feature but here in Thailand I can't see it and wondered if it really existed? Apparently yes! Much appreciated, STL (and may you get to Thailand soon:) PS: as my Canucks are already on the back 9 yet again, GO LEAFS!
Hey, how do u tip?
@Seffski Just watching is thanks enough but for tips CZcams has also added a 'super thanks' which appears beside the like/subscribe area etc (but apparently it's not available in all countries). So if the box isn't appearing and any would still like to tip (not expected but greatly appreciated) I also have a Tip Jar, here: bit.ly/3Le6Ex8
Cheers, STL
i miss koh chang so much, thanks for nice video!
looks gorgeous there, glad to see a cheap/usable gym too!
Ditto! Always like to find a decent local gym when travelling
That was a fantastic trip down memory lane, thanks 😊
Glad you enjoyed it
Awesome stuff mate. Great investigation of the island to find some little jems. 🏖🏝⛱🍻👍
Cheers Warren. I absolutely love nosing around a new place and finding a few little gems always a pleasure. STL
Hmmm? Near the end you say ' I have chosen well ' that was what I call an understatement! Porpar food looked gorgeous 😍 loved your review of the beach huts.
Porpar best Penang Gai ever! (view not bad too;)
Sometimes a place just hits you right between the eyes. This is that place for me. Great video! Every place you showed was well worth the rent. Something for everyone. I especially loved the 2nd place; the one you took 700baht. 1st one was ok too. All priced for your particular fit. Outstanding food, atmosphere & of course, ppl. Gonna have to follow your act, buddy. Like & subscribed! I'm very selective about my videos. Thailand & Vietnam. My 2 favorite places on the planet. As usual I stumbled upon you by accident. Pleasant surprise. Thanks alot!!!👍🇨🇷🍜🍤🏊
A month ago it was dead around Lonely Beach when I was there. Glad you are having a better experience.
Caught it on a weekend so was happy to see a few more folks about
i really enjoy the laid back places. thumbs up
Man that is a great video with some great info, thanks man.
Cheers Kev :)
Appreciate all your work I live for these vids. Great stuff. I miss the Thai Rasta bars.
Thx. Love me a rasta bar too and on the beach all the better! STL
love this video thanks for sharing 👍 ❤️
Keep up the good work STL! Love it 🤟🥂🍺💃
Thank you Torvald :) STL
New subscriber here! Absolutely loving your content, the way you interact with locals, speaking a bit of Indo. Truly great! Going to binge watch your videos today. Terima kasih!
Wow, thanks/makasih!
@@SideTripLife sama sama 😊
I was based in chanthaburi for a week, took a trip to koh chang, a long trip by scooter so of course stayed over in 2018. For one night at a rasta resort. I much prefer south of Bangkok. Living in ubon- ratchathani is quite different.
Thanks for all your video's......top class 👍🏼🙂
Cheers Peter
Great video! Happy video! Fun video! Yah man! ❤️
cheers Taza
Oh Koh Chang is it MAN GI 😂 I'm lovin this vid wow cheap n cheerful all right... Rasta
great vid, thank you
Great vid as usual STL. Hope to get over to The Land of Smiles again soon. Thank you :)
Thanks Dean, Thailand awaits! STL
Yet another top video......can't wait to get back to log chang.......
Cheers Stu the Righteous (love that nic btw;) STL
Titanic not titank. Look at the C on the Koh Chang and you'll see its the same font as the C at the end of Titanic and not the K as in the Koh. I dont know, cant get the staff these days.
Yep, I mangled that one Tim. Wasn't the painter's fault, rather my eyes and once 'tank' registered with me apparently it was embedded lol. Another viewer points out the 'c' was '
Made it to the end...great video and series
Legend! Thank you!
I ate in exactly that place with an amazing sunset. I love Koh Chang, been 3 times, booked for October again.
Nice!
I'm very surprised over all You amazing travel videos , You make a great Job I hope I meet You someday
Thanks! 😃
wow! so many choices beatiful propteries to chose from. Prices much better than the rent I pay in YYC!! YUK!!! Always enjoy your incredible videos with incredible scenery. R
Real nice!
Hiya, the prices always shock me. So cheap for a slice of paradise. Love a bit of drone footage. You did well. They are not easy to fly. Great video. Beautiful sunset. Always chilled vibes. No, no-no. Yes, yes, yes. Love it. Leo's bar has great vibes. Always watch your full video. Have a great weekend. Somehow I have missed a few vids. So catching up.
Thanks :) PS 'Somehow I have missed a few vids' says Nicky in between walking Mr Wiggle Butt, filming her yummy cooking vids or being a super-mod lol.
wow looks so amazing, its not as busy as the other places you went to. But its so nice
Leo's bar, a platonic place to chill, a couple of 50 baht dishes, a couple of cokes, watch the sunset and then a good book before bed. Sleep in a hammock all day too ... where do I sign up? 😁
great stuff !! watched all your vids. im looking to spend 6 months a year where do you recommend for a fellow canuck thanks !! (tasts same as yours rustic beach cabin in small town or rural area )
ps you have a unique way of presenting - tone in your voice ,attitude or..??....not sure but i find your travel vids easiest to (my wife's favorite and she is hard to please lol ) listen too must be that magnetic canadian humility we cary :)
Beautiful video............................... no gimmicks.
Sorry if you already know, but Rude Boy is UK slang for a fan of Ska music which is kinda like reggae but faster and more urban. Please excuse if you already knew. 😁
Ah ha.... Thanks for that info, all makes sense now! Cherrs, STL (PS, any looking in, Cambodia borders are open again so for latest Cambo news check out 'For Riel' channel;)
End of January 2022, A trip by car to Koh Chang was my gift to my girlfriend for her birthday (her suggestion though, ha ha), it was the most exciting and amazing 10 days so far in Thailand, and I've been all over it. We stayed at Marina Sands Resort, with their private beach, top place and it was so cheap.
Great video! SO want to get there!!!
Thanks Marzee (you'll get here :)
A nice thing about the rocky beach, PRIVACY. Won't see too many folks walking around in that.
Agreed Bob. Balian next door even better.
So want to visit this island a little taste of old Thai island life great price info thankyou
Great island…..we will be going there in the next couple months….
My 1st visit, love KC now! Enjoy :) STL
This looks like a very chill affordable spot away from the more touristy spots like Phuket and Phi Phi. Thing is, Koh Chang isn't really much different than any beach spot you can find on Koh Tao, Koh Phangan or really any of the dozens of islands in Thailand. These spots while charming, all kinda look exactly the same. Still worth checking out.
Just A W E S O M E as per usual.
Makes me just wanna jump on a plane ✈️ and get there.
Rasta rustic bar
Food
Cold beers
Good music
🌊 ocean
Sunset
That is LIFE
LIVING at its very best
Love it 🥰 👌😃
Greetings from freezing 🥶 Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺
Thx. Perfect checklist right there (and bet Melbourne still lovely despite a bit of chill :) STL

For some reason I’ve not been getting your vlogs . Had to look for you , but well worth it .
