to the viewer who cursed at me in a comment insinuating I don't like his music thus people, I approved your comment but it looks like it's being ghosted by YT, not me (I didn't mind but probably for cursing I guess). Anyways will paste my response below as it doesn't appear either: Lol. Actually, LOVE old school rap, before it became mostly grown men (black&white) mainly bragging about themselves ala 'imma biggest imma baddest' blah blah.... zzzz ... yawn.... (sorry;) PS: also mentioned not a fan of soppy pop music.... (uh-oh, in trouble again lol;) btw, my fav all time rap tune: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-uzgBD2wysuI.html peace, STL

Generally all the TV is in Thai and most of the shows terrible so you're much better to travel with a laptop and watch RU-vid and whatnot ...

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!

This is exactly what I want to experience in Thailand. I’m coming in September, hoping the rains hold of for my visit . 🙏

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.

I visit Ko Chang 30 years ago, it was bungalows on the beach. $2 a night…..

Working on retirement in Thailand with my very dear friend, this place looks like paradise.

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

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

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🙂

great video i going there based on this video!!! stayed tuned

11:00 . Not much to do there. Thinking of your life. Relax and meditation

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.......

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. 😁

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!

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 .

My mouth dropped open from about 2 mins in and remained that way til the end! This is so amazing (freezing now in Chicago). How do I do this? Clearly so many people could afford this, a charm unmatched. Do you offer consulting services for a fee? I've been to a few places, but at my age I'm kind of on my own at this point. Have to try this!!!!!

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?

Only someone called Leo would name his bar the Rude Boy Bar (-: I watched this vid three times today whilst cooking and eating my Thai Green Curry Mussels ... You'll see an interesting photo on my Instagram account. Enjoy (-:

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

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? 😁

YOUR MISSION Ethan Hunt is to IMMEDIATELY put on your portable JETPACK and IMMEDIATELY fly from the balcony of your Luxury Bangkok condo to LONELY Beach Koh CHANG and give an UPDATE in December 2022. Nobody does the"Thai" beach vibe better than STL. Some PRETENDERS out there. But they are TRAGIC.

Good stuff. Just enough people to keep things interesting. Prices are great.

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.

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. 🇨🇦🇹🇭

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!

fantastic, what am I doing in this hell LV NV?

I like your style of videos including prices and reviews on the fly.

Those spots are great, thanks for sharing! Always look forward to your new videos

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!!!👍🇨🇷🍜🍤🏊

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.

Always look at the SideTripLife , do do do =)

Oh Koh Chang is it MAN GI 😂 I'm lovin this vid wow cheap n cheerful all right... Rasta

Great info and commentary …you have to either swing your filming device around slowly or use a gyro device ..it is most unpleasant when you swing your camera so fast …spoils the overall quality …

You _really_ need to slow down when you're panning left or right with your video camera. At present, it's puke inducing.

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...

Great tunes and good to see Lonely beach getting some life back, thanks x

Still seems very quiet Garlic used to be buzzing now it’s nearly empty

as usual Great great video. Thanks for such a great informative video

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 😫

Great video mate,Love watching your videos.Great to see Koh Chang looking abit busy again.

"Basic" is A-O.K. 400 basic is almost always best.👍🇹🇭

Nice one mate ,,,,,,,catching up as back in UK after 30 days travelling around Thailand Nice

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 ❤

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!

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.

You always find the Secret Spots 😁 I would have parked the Bike and Walked over there an Drank all night 😁

You listed monthly rate for 1st place as well as daily. How much is monthly rate for place you stayed? Very nice!

A nice thing about the rocky beach, PRIVACY. Won't see too many folks walking around in that.

Another awesome video 🙏

HIMMEL means in swedish Heaven

Great island…..we will be going there in the next couple months….

Last time on koh chiang was 15/yrs ago, way sleepier. Love the rude boy bar. Thanks for the tips

I miss living in Thailand and traveling to all the fun islands there. 💕

Thanks for the fantastic video. So many years on lonely beach.. I even seeing my appartment. Regards jeff

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 🇦🇺

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.

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

100 kudos for this movie

What a great place to chill and have a few beers , " Yaa Mon " LOL . Thank you for sharing , Enjoy ....

I'm very surprised over all You amazing travel videos , You make a great Job I hope I meet You someday

Enjoyed witching. Very peaceful. I was stationed in Bangkok in 1969. Fond memories of the Thai people

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! 👍🏼👏🏻👏🏻 Soon I will check the recommended places 🤗

Driving to lonely beach. Are there sidewalks you can walk. I don,t see any.

Overwhelmingly a place to go - LB - thanks for showing some real Lanta - 👌 very much enjoyed STL 🍻😎👌👍🙏

looks gorgeous there, glad to see a cheap/usable gym too!

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.

Beautiful and helpfull video!

A month ago it was dead around Lonely Beach when I was there. Glad you are having a better experience.

Excellent videos of Koh Chang, come to the White Elephant in White Sands on Friday night, great live music ( if I do say so myself) I’ll be play for a couple of hours and then another excellent band will play till midnight

Recently discovered your channel, great stuff. Yeah, always endure it to the end!

Thanks for these. Going through the playlist and although you couldn't stay there Nature Beach is one of the place's that we'll be staying at End Oct through to mid November for a birthday trip and one that should've been taken 2yrs ago. Wonder if you'll stay at any of the other places we have booked. I won't cheat and will note them as: Kacha Resort & Spa, Nature Beach Resort and Koh Chang Cliff Beach Resort. I'll come on back after I've finished the list and see how we did eh. Glad to see that the island is starting to pick up a bit and hopefully by the time we arrive at the start of high season it'll have it's vibe in full swing ( though if it's not rammed then selfishly I won't be too upset about that even though the poor residents are likely praying it will be)

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.

I assume daily rate is probably non negotiable, but what about monthly? 7,000? Thailand is the land of bartering. Although 8k w electric & water is a-ok, but what the hell, it never hurts to try, right.

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.

All your vids make me rethink Pattaya! I’m more of a beach/island guy. Are there places with female company available on the islands? Just curious, thanks for the vids

So want to visit this island a little taste of old Thai island life great price info thankyou

Just love you’re videos Thanks Waiting for my bitcoins to make millions then I’m off to Thailand 🇹🇭 How much does petrol cost there.

Now this is puuurfect I'm going tired of Pattaya Jomtien Beach lived there for about 10 yrs SIP BE NAH

Great coverage of the Lonely Beach area. Love it! Wish I was there right now. (Btw, not sure if you were joking, but the name of the restaurant is "Titanic.")

Cool roof deck!

Love ur videos. So refreshing, light and very informative. Keep up the good work. Do you ever have problems getting back ur deposits when u rent condos? or how do we know if the agency is not dodgy?

I hope that I can get there 😍😍

I ate in exactly that place with an amazing sunset. I love Koh Chang, been 3 times, booked for October again.

Hi sidetriplife nature beach resort always busy bit pricey if you there for long time but good for sunset chill out, normally stay warapura resort which is now split with casa beach resort really great rooms from around 800 baht will try out sunflower for a change when I get back next month cheers.

Great videos of Koh Chang and informative. A friend and myself will be there for the New Year 2024/25 for a week so looking forward to it. A few days at Oasis resort then off to the east side. So best of both worlds party time New Year then rest on the east side 😎👍

wow looks so amazing, its not as busy as the other places you went to. But its so nice

have a look at reality first an do not forget to count in all every day ease or hardships in normal tasks and needs...not that great at all. Koh Chang seems to be dying a slow death, regardless of som ehotels being fille dup slowly again...this was happening already before Covid...if you ar elooking to start a biz.

i really enjoy the laid back places. thumbs up

Hey man, what do you use to film most of this? DJI osmo action? Thanks

Counting the days until we leave! Thanks for another great video however your Otis Redding impression needs a little work;)

But do you know the Island Koh Chang near Ranong, south of Bangkok? 5 years ago I had a very good time there at the long beach resort in low season, ...

thanks for your hard work/video. by the way are there any SNAKES lurking around the homes ?

14:47 - Nice place for me , and familys. Great hotel !

23:32 Is that the boat from HR PufnStuf?

That Panang gai didn't look quite right. LB complex, LOL.

always stay til the end..! i am wanting to move here since watching your videos....my kid cant tho so im torn..! lol At least want to visit....!!!

Love yr videos.STL.Trouble is the more of them i watch the more places are added to the list 😂 I'm going to need a year out there 😮
