Koh Chang
Tennis Club
We managed to find one tennis club on this tropical island paradise. The Koh Chang Tennis Club is well maintained, lit for night play and very reasonably priced. It's located in central Khlong Proa on the west coast of Thailand's second largest island.
The staff is very friendly and they can provide you with racquets, balls and cold towels if you need. Give them a call to make a reservation, or have your hotel front desk arrange it for you. Koh Chang Tennis Club is open from 0700 to 2200 everyday.

What To Do After Tennis
We rented a motorcycle and toured this island that is lined with white sand beaches. After tennis, we hung out at a little roadside Thai restaurant, cooled off and enjoyed some hot Thai cuisine. Then we hit the open road (a narrow windy one) and took a look at the island's west shore. A beautiful national park offers some spectacular viewpoints and Lonely Beach almost at the end of the road attracts hippies, backpackers and those who want the no-frills Thai beach experience. We hung out there, taking in the unbelievable view while enjoying cool beverages on the lay-down ocean front deck.

Where We Stayed
We stayed at the Chai Chet Resort, about 4 kilometres to the south of the courts. An elegant and reasonably price resort overlooking the bay and a large stretch of white sandy beach. All down the beach are cottages and hotels. At night you can stroll down there and check out the action at different beach restaurants and bars. We took in a fire show with dinner one night.
The staff at the Chai Chet is very helpful and welcoming. The pool is amazing, not to mention the swim-up bar. It's a great place to enjoy a cool Chang Beer after a hot tennis workout.
Our sea-view room was very nice with an unique bathroom and shower that had the effect of a rocky stream running through it.

How to Get There
It's about 50 meters down the alley behind the local motor-scooter repair shop. We traveled there by Songthaew(open air shared taxi). Tell the driver where you're heading and he'll drop you off in the right place.
